Latest website: On July 14, 2014, the Binghamton Challenge officially opened.

This small challenge with 64 picks has no place in the US Open series at all. It is not worth mentioning. It is reasonable that no one pays attention to it, but it is attracted by the players with the top two seeds. A lot of attention was paid, and even the homepage of the ATP official website gave an official report.

A total of eight seed seats will be set up in the event.

The top seed, Alexander Zverev, just set a series of records in the Challenger League and the Gold Game last month, and he is in the limelight, so there is no need to repeat it.

The second seed, Serigy-Stakhovsky (Serigy-Stakhovsky), this is a twenty-eight-year-old player who has been in professional tennis for eleven years, but still came to participate in the challenge, according to Logically speaking, it should be a green leaf player who is not worthy of attention.

However, Stahovski captured the world's attention at last year's Wimbledon, where the then world number 116 played well in a second-round match against defending champion Federer. Federer was eliminated with a total score of "3:1".

This also created an embarrassing record. Following Hewitt's upset first-round loss in 2003, Federer became the earliest defending champion to be eliminated in the Wimbledon men's singles event.

It is precisely because of this that Stakhovski became famous in the first battle!

Unfortunately, in the past year, due to injuries, Stakhovski's world ranking has not been high, and his game has been ups and downs. After breaking into the third round at Wimbledon for the second consecutive year last month, He moved to North America and chose the Binghamton Challenge to start his North American season.

To put it simply, Stakhovski also came here to find touch and build confidence in preparation for the U.S. Open.

With Zverev Jr. in front and Stakhovsky in the back, Binghamton became hot in an instant.

After the draw ceremony, Zverev Jr. guarded the upper half and Stakhovsky guarded the lower half. Both players were the focus of the press conference—

In fact, judging from the scale of the Challenger League, there was no press conference, only the ATP official website and the event media themselves issued announcements.

But because of the relationship between the top two seeds, Binghamton was also very lively. The appearance of more than a dozen reporters made the players hailed as seeing a press conference.

When answering the reporter's question, Zverev Jr. said, "The championship is my only goal", which shows the spirit of the teenager.

Stakhovski kept a low profile, "I still need to adjust my status and hope to go as far as possible", but then changed the subject and said, "Of course, if there is a chance to compete for the championship, I will naturally do my best." .

The two favorites to win the championship are both pointing at the champion.

But for other players, there is no time to think about the championship for the time being, but they need to pay attention to the game in front of them and make steady progress step by step.

For example, Gao Wen, the opponent in the first round—

Tannasi-Korkinakis.

Gillon: ...

McDonald: …

It's really... It's not that friends don't get together, how is the lottery drawn? It even made people doubt the extent of the mastermind behind the scenes. How could it be such a coincidence?

On the whole, Macdonald and Geelong's signing luck is much better. Both of them are in the upper half, and only Gao Wen enters the lower half.

MacDonald's opponent was a native American Hispanic youth player, under the age of 18, who had not entered the NCAA, received professional training since he was a child, and just turned from the youth game to the professional game this year.

Geelong's opponent is a Zimbabwean player who turned professional in 2008. He is 25 years old this year and has rich experience, but he is still playing Challenger League in the sixth year of his career, which shows that he is not the kind with outstanding talent.

From the analysis of strength on paper, both Macdonald and Geelong have the upper hand, but Gao Wen is different.

Kokinakis is currently ranked 297 in the world, that is to say, he has entered the top 300. He is also the highest-ranked unseeded player. He is a tough player for any player. Not good stubble.

At the beginning, when Gao Wen played against Kyrgios, he beat Kyrgios "5:0". Not to mention that it was a charity exhibition match, Kyrgios was indeed caught off guard; just talking about the score, it was just five points. If it is a complete game, I am afraid it will be another situation.

Now, Gao Wen's first official match in his career will be against Kokinakis. It was even more dangerous, because they all knew that Corkinakis would definitely go all out, ready to ravage Gawain.

So, how should Gao Wen respond?

"Ah, another wild card was given to Sean. Both Ruan and Hanfman came from the qualifying round."

Gao Wen is paying attention to the situation of the NCAA opponents, and he can see at a glance how everyone came to the main game, but this is not the point, okay?

"Gao Wen, aren't you worried that the opponent deliberately made things difficult for you?" MacDonald frowned, and he could clearly feel his worry.

Gao Wen shrugged his shoulders easily, "He wants to teach me a good lesson, but he also wants to see who the opponent is. I'm also tough, okay?"

Seeing the calm and breezy Gao Wen, Macdonald and Jillon also relaxed a little.

Gao Wen patted the shoulders of the two friends, "It's a good thing to have a little challenge. That's why we came to Binghamton, remember? Don't be afraid of the strength of the opponent. If you treat those difficult opponents as A tempering and growth, then everything will be interesting."

Gawain is not blindly confident. He knows the strength of Kokinakis, and also the strength of Zverev Jr. and Kyrgios, the favorites of heaven. Fight against—

This is the most interesting and moving part of competitive sports.

Well, let them see just how powerful Kokinakis is. Gawain can't wait to step onto the court.

Then, there was a burst of cheers, "Oh yeah", and everyone followed the sound ~lightnovelpub.net~ At a glance, you can see Corkinakis clenching his fists in celebration, twisting his waist and dancing, cheering again and again Jumping and jumping, people can feel his excitement without words.

No one else knows, so no one knows why Kokinakis celebrated. Did he get the lottery?

But Gawain knew.

Kokinakis also saw Gawain in the crowd, took a space slide, raised his chin haughtily, stared at Gawain with burning eyes, and smiled all over his face.

Gawain didn't say much, and folded his hands on his chest, enjoying Kokinakis' performance with great interest, as if he was enjoying a circus performance.

Kokinakis understood the deep meaning in Gawain's eyes, his movements froze, and he cursed secretly:

He's meow! I'm not playing monkey games, okay?

Gao Wen gently raised his chin, showing a satisfied smile, a child can be taught.
