"6:0", "6:1", "6:2"—

This is the score of the last match of the ninth match day, from the men's singles quarterfinals. Guess who won?

World number one Djokovic.

Shocked, stunned, disappointed, and discussed a lot.

Although people had foreseen that Djokovic should be the more favored side, the entire match, from the process to the score, from the situation to the scene, was a complete collapse and a one-sided sweep, which was completely unexpected.

Last year, Cilic played his career masterpiece on this venue. Although he lost to Gao Wen in the final and missed the best opportunity to win the Grand Slam championship, Cilic still showed his talent and ability and proved that he can win the Grand Slam championship. A top performance on the Grand Slam stage.

Similar to Dimitrov and Raonic, Cilic also experienced a nightmare year, going through injuries, troughs, and the long test of rehabilitation, and finally regained his touch at the end of the long dark tunnel and regained his strength. Returning to his blessed place, he exploded with amazing energy in Flushing.

Perhaps, facing Djokovic, Cilic does not have an advantage, but considering that he defeated Federer here last year, at least people can have more expectations.

Before the game, Cilic also admitted that he had never defeated Djokovic in his career, but now he is slowly getting on the right track. He believes that he can go all out and find a way to win. Perhaps this meeting was the one that led to a breakthrough.

However-

rout.

The whole game only lasted 88 minutes, and Cilic had already abandoned his armor and was completely defeated. What is really disappointing is not the win or loss, but that Cilic was not even able to organize a decent offense throughout the game, and he was so arrogant. There was not even a single bright moment to be found in the game.

This is the most regrettable thing.

Of course, from Djokovic's perspective, it was a hearty victory. He entered the semi-finals with his head held high and continued to improve his condition.

There is no doubt that Djokovic proved his strength with an unparalleled performance. The world's No. 1 once again points to the championship -

He is still full of desire.

Not only is it a battle for the world's No. 1 spot, but it's also a Grand Slam championship. Djokovic shows his desire, and his passion is still rising.

For the audience, after experiencing the ups and downs of the Williams sisters' civil war in the night game, the ending of the ninth match day was obviously unsatisfactory; but on second thought, the first half semi-final matchup list was officially released, and it was exciting and exciting. The mood has become faintly unable to be suppressed.

"Djokovic VS Dimitrov".

In an instant, the memory returned to Wimbledon in 2014. Dimitrov, who had attracted much attention because of Sharapova, had his first breakthrough in his career. After defeating Murray, he broke into the semi-finals of the Grand Slam. When he came down to challenge Djokovic, he also showed a top level.

Unfortunately, Djokovic was still superior, winning two consecutive tie-breaks in the third and fourth sets, and won the last four sets.

In the blink of an eye, we are now at the moment. Dimitrov has reached the semi-finals of a Grand Slam for the second time in his career and will face the mountain of Djokovic again.

So, what about this time?

Is the ending different?

The topic is warming up little by little, and the expectations are rising steadily. Then, the bustling eyes are focused on the next competition day.

During the matinee, two women's singles matches will be arranged.

In the nightclub, two men’s singles events are arranged.

Generally speaking, neither the US Open nor the Australian Open will arrange night matches like this.

For the audience It's not a good thing for the players.

Vinci was born in 1983 and Pennetta was born in 1982.
