body 291 sudden

Winston-Salem, formed by the merger of Winston and Salem in 1913, after nearly a century of development, has now grown into the fourth largest city in North Carolina, based on industry, Industries such as tobacco, textiles, electrical equipment, and furniture were developed.

Among them, because the world-famous Camel brand cigarettes are produced here, the city has also won the reputation of Camel City.

However, since 2011, the ATP 250 Gold Series has settled here and has become the last event of the US Open series, which makes Winston-Salem always attract countless players in the summer every year. The visit of the fans has become a gathering place for tennis fans.

The location of the Winston-Salem Gold Tournament is a little special. In the first two weeks, there are two top North American Masters series, where all the masters come out; The Grand Slam qualifying match and the two-week Grand Slam race are attracting worldwide attention.

Generally speaking, the top 10 and 20 players in the world, after participating in two Masters tournaments, usually take a two-week rest to save their energy for the Grand Slam, including this one in Winston-Salem. Skip together, anyway, it's just a gold match, the level is just higher than the challenge match.

It is precisely because of this that the Winston-Salem Gold Race is often bleak and lacks attention.

But the reality is often unexpected.

Occasionally, some top players are not in good condition in the two Masters, and they are out early, the warm-up intensity is not enough, and the game feel is not adjusted to the best. They urgently need to mobilize their state through the game before the start of the Grand Slam. -Salem is the place to be.

In addition, young players like Gao Wen are energetic but inexperienced. The closer they are to the Grand Slam, the more they need to maintain their form. They often go to Winston-Salem to compete. Professionals also look forward to passing this competition. The event unearthed young rookies who could upset the US Open.

MacDonald and Geelong are the same, ready to go to North Carolina to compete, but they are not eligible to participate in the U.S. Open, even the qualifying round, so this is the last event of their North American season, looking forward to showing themselves Strength.

For various reasons, Winston-Salem has gathered a lot of attention.

On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, Gao Wen was still practicing hard in Los Angeles. McDonald and Geelong had already set off for Winston-Salem from Vancouver and Montreal after finishing their journey in the previous race—

Both of them will participate in the qualifying rounds, so they need to arrive in advance. The two rounds of qualifying rounds also need to draw lots to match up, and then the players who will advance to the main match will be determined before Sunday.

But Gao Wen didn't need it. Tobias applied for a wild card for him, and successfully won the favor of the main committee:

The ncaa national championship is only part of the reason, and the challenge for three consecutive weeks is an important bargaining chip.

After an outstanding performance in July, Gao Wen's world ranking has risen all the way, from no ranking in early July to 193 in the first week of August.

The three champions accumulated a total of 260 points, allowing Gao Wen to occupy a place in the top 200 of the world's professional rankings in one fell swoop.

Because of this, when Winston-Salem received the wild card application, it approved the wild card without much hesitation.

If you look through the list of the 101st to 200th in the world, you can see a lot of interesting names—

157, Alexander Zverev.

184, James Odensnik.

185, Zhang Ze.

187, Tennessee-Korkinakis.

193, Gao Wen.

194, borna-coric.

All of them are familiar figures, aside from the familiar faces of Zverev Jr., Odensnik, Kokinakis and other challenge opponents, there is another very, very noteworthy name——

Zhang chooses.

This male tennis player from China was born in 1990. In 2012, he entered the French Open qualifying lineup by virtue of his ranking. A brand new record in the series of world rankings, creating the highest ranking ever for a Chinese male player with a ranking of 154.

At the Australian Open at the beginning of this year, he further became the first Chinese men's tennis player to pass the qualifying test and enter the Grand Slam main match in the Open era.

Although the overall performance this year is not satisfactory and the world ranking is slowly declining, Zhang Ze is still the first brother of the Chinese men's players.

Then, there is Gao Wen.

From surpassing Zhang Ze to become the new Huaxia No. 1 brother, Gao Wen is only eight places behind in the ranking, and 27 points behind in points. If Gao Wen can perform well in Winston-Salem, then the reversal will be It's a matter of minutes, and next, Gao Wen will strive to become the first male player in history to win a Grand Slam.

Significance.

Quietly, Gao Wen was writing history.

The younger generation born after 1990 is still struggling, and the younger generation born after 1995 has already caught up, which has many similarities with the development trend of the world tennis world.

It is precisely because he is full of romantic fantasies about the Grand Slam, so Gao Wen hopes that he can perform well in the Winston-Salem Gold Tournament. What he lacks most now is the game experience. If he does not want to set foot on the Grand Slam for the first time His knees trembled during the match schedule, so he needs more competition experience~lightnovelpub.net~ Huh...

call…

It was the end of another orange state. After breathing steadily, Gao Wen packed up his things and headed to the bathroom. He was ready to rinse off. After Friday’s training, he took a plane to Charlotte at night, and after arriving there, he took a bus to Winston-Sea Ram.

After simply taking a combat shower, Gawain left the shower room. After changing his clothes, he looked at the time and realized that his training was delayed by ten minutes. He still needs to go to the airport with Tobias , it is best to speed up a little to avoid delays and missed flights.

So the action became quicker, and even the thought of turning on the system to check the latest harvest was temporarily put on hold, and he left the bathroom in a hurry, and was about to leave the gym when he saw Tobias appearing at the elevator entrance.

Gao Wen thought he was delaying the time, but Tobias came over to urge him, and quickly apologized.

"Sorry, I'm sorry, I'm ready and I can start now. I practiced two more sets of plank today, and the time is a little longer."

Gao Wen turned off the lights in the gym, and ran over at the same time.

Tobias made a joke, "Looking at your brisk pace, you should still have some strength left, why don't you practice a little longer in the gym."

In fact, the intensity of the orange state has gradually adapted. Gao Wen's current training endurance is indeed getting better and better. Even after experiencing the orange state, he will no longer be exhausted.

But Gao Wen keenly grasped the deep meaning in Tobias's words, and paused, "Why, I still have time to continue training? I thought we needed to rush to the airport..."

"No, no, the wild card has been cancelled."
