Match Point

Chapter 225: deja vu

The latest URL: "...Obviously I have already made an appointment in advance, and you have already told me that there is no problem at three o'clock in the afternoon, and now you are telling me that there is no schedule? What is going on? If you don't give me an explanation, I will Just stay here and not go."

"This is my right, you must give me an answer."

"I've followed the rules and regulations, but you guys are treating me like a fool. If it doesn't work at 3pm, who the **** is using the venue? Why is he able to take my time and push me out? I need an explanation .”

The first thing to do when you arrive in Binghamton to complete your hotel check-in is to go to the event office to sign in.

In fact, Tobias can help Gao Wen complete these things, but Gao Wen is also a little curious about participating in a professional competition for the first time, and he is used to self-reliance, so he still goes with Jilong and MacDonald. Of course, Tobias also accompanied all the way—

This top manager officially began to become a member of Gao Wen's team, and now he finally has some real feelings.

However, as soon as I entered the event office, I saw a "farce". There seemed to be some conflicts. The queue was blocked in the small room, and it was impossible to enter for a while.

Relying on his height advantage, Gao Wen walked through the crowd and saw the protagonist of the farce at a glance——

Yannick Huffman!

How could he not know his old enemy at the University of Southern California?

Just when Gao Wen and the others were confused, Jiron saw another familiar face, Ryan Sean from the University of Virginia.

In the national championship game, they were sworn enemies. Needless to say, the grievances and grievances of the Los Angeles city derby. Geelong eliminated Sean and entered the top 16 in the singles arena; A freshman in the professional arena.

In addition to Sean and Hanfman, Gao Wen also saw his singles semi-final opponent Dennis Ruan just now, and the two also greeted each other in a friendly manner.

The bustling and bustling figures seemed familiar in a trance, as if they had returned to Athens again, as if it was the National Championships again, only a new batch of contestants, but the familiar faces were still very friendly.

At this time, it can be seen that the plans of NCAA players are more or less similar. They make full use of the summer time to participate in hope games and challenge games to prepare for the new season and pave the way for their careers.

I used to fight in the college arena where the bayonet saw the red, but when I entered the professional arena, I added a little sense of intimacy because of the NCAA experience.

Jiron asked Sean, and Sean explained the situation in a few words.

In fact, it is a matter of training time on the practice field.

Arriving at a brand new venue for a new event, first of all, players need daily training, which is the case every day during the event; secondly, players need to be familiar with the venue, especially when they have just arrived, which makes the arrangement of the practice field very particular.

There are two types of driving ranges, one is the general driving range.

Everyone can practice, but all must make an appointment. After all, all players need to practice, and there is no strict practice time limit in the general practice field. There is no problem for three hours or five hours. As long as you make an appointment in advance, it is convenient for the event organizers Arrangement is enough, which also highlights the importance of driving range reservations.

One is field practice, that is, adapting to the field of competition.

The larger the competition, the more obvious the difference between the venues. The differences between the No. 1 venue, No. 2 venue, No. 3 venue, etc. are extremely huge.

Among them, venue No. 1 is naturally the center court that accommodates the largest number of spectators. Because of the spacious space and many seats, the whole atmosphere is different. The airflow, light, temperature, sound, sense of space, etc. are all different, and the feeling of hitting Different, adapting and not adapting are two different things.

But obviously, not every player is able to enter the No. 1 court to adapt to the venue, and often only the top and biggest players have such opportunities.

Because there is only one venue, even if the event organizers limit the training time, usually one hour to two hours at most, the supply is still in short supply.

It is precisely because of this that the training to adapt to the venue is not an appointment, but an application.

Regardless of the former or the latter, the reservation system and event arrangements are taken for granted.

The Binghamton Challenge is just a small event. It is not difficult to arrange the driving range. Moreover, the event has been in operation for 20 years. The event director is no longer a rookie, but how could he make a low-level mistake of time conflict? ?

The greatest possibility should be that a certain big-name player—or a big-name agent, put pressure on the game and took away the practice time that should have belonged to Hanfman. Anyway, Hanfman has no agent. University players without backers can complain and protest at most, but they can't make substantive resistance.

In fact, there is no need for the staff to give Hanfman an answer. When the waiting time is up, he will naturally know who the player is taking up Hanfman's practice time.

swish swish.

swish swish.

The news at the door of the office quickly spread—

Alexander-Zverev.

So, who exactly is Zverev?

Before introducing Zverev in depth, we need to talk about a small concept.

Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, and Murray have jointly dominated the tennis world for nearly two decades. They were hailed by the media as the "Big Four". The "Big Three", they teamed up to suppress a whole generation of "post-80s" and "post-90s" players, and no one could break through their blockade.

Time is their only enemy.

Until later, with the increase of age and injuries, their dominance was slightly loosened, especially the Masters, which is second only to the Grand Slam, began to gradually lose ground. A group of "post-95" players sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain, grabbing the class and seizing power. Then, after the test of time, the "Three Little Giants" gradually formed——

Russian player Daniil Medvedev (born 1996), Greek player Stefanos-Tsitsipas (born 1998) and German player Alexander Zvi (born 1997) lev.

Among them, ~lightnovelpub.net~ Zverev was the first to produce results.

Zverev was born in a tennis family. He and his elder brother are both professional tennis players. In order to distinguish the two brothers, the younger brother is also called Zverev Jr.

At the beginning of this year, Zverev Jr. won the Australian Open Junior Championship and became the world's No. 1 teenager; in 2016, the year-end world ranking had reached the top 30; After the player, and the world ranking has come to the third.

A series of honor figures can be seen. Zverev Jr. is undoubtedly the leader of the "post-95" players. When he was nineteen years old, he had already defeated Federer and Djokovic in a row. From strength to strength, there is no doubt that it is a top existence.

Even going back to the present, Zverev, who is only seventeen years old, has been playing in the professional arena since last year and has officially turned professional. He has already shown top abilities early on.

No wonder, upon hearing Zverev's name, the crowd started buzzing.
