Chapter 299: interim coach

Latest URL: Guest? What guest?

Gao Wen's head was full of question marks, but Jiang Yanyun came over, patted the back of Gao Wen's hand heavily, and babbled.

"Did you steal it again? Did you wash your hands? I don't know how to pay attention to hygiene when I am so old? The guests are coming soon, why don't you hurry up and help arrange the dishes?"

"Old Gao, hurry up and open the door for the guests. I still have a braised crucian carp, which will be ready soon. Let the guests sit down."

The hustle and bustle brought Gao Wen back to his hometown for the Lunar New Year in a second, as if relatives and friends would swarm in, chirping "Happy Chinese New Year", and then jokingly asking for red envelopes, complaining about this winter It's so cold at home.

Gawain was a little dazed.

Blinking and blinking, he finally came to his senses, but his mind was full of question marks.

"Mom, what guest? Isn't I the only guest today?"

"...You return the guest, what kind of guest is it when you go home? You are talking nonsense! You wash your hands quickly, then set the dishes and chopsticks, and take out the drinks in the refrigerator. Don't drink Coca-Cola. I bought you orange juice separately. .Oh, the cup hasn’t been washed yet, remember to scald it with boiling water.”

Answering irrelevant questions, it really is the same mother style as always.

While talking, Gao Hongli opened the door of the room, and then Tobias also walked up to welcome the visitor.

Gao Wen didn't understand, he and his parents were reunited in New York, how could there be other guests? And it seems that Tobias also knows this guest?

Immediately afterwards, another tall person entered the room, and the originally small apartment suddenly became more and more crowded.

"Pete?"

Gao Wen was very, very surprised. He never expected to see Sampras here! Are you sure there is nothing wrong with the atmosphere of this scene?

"Hey, Gawain!"

Sampras greeted warmly.

"I hope I'm not late. God, the terrain in Flushing is like a maze. I used to go to and from the stadium, and I didn't take a serious stroll here. It feels strange. I went back and forth for a long time, and I hit the wrong three. After the door, I almost suspected that the fourth time was also wrong. You have no idea how happy and grateful I was when I saw John's old face."

Gao Wen raised his hands and feet in agreement with Sampras's coming as a guest, but the question is, why?

Sampras seemed to be able to sense Gawain's confusion, and immediately reacted, looking at Tobias.

"Aha, haven't you told Gawain yet?"

"Jesus Christ, this is not good news. Believe me, Gawain, you can say 'no' if you don't want to, don't worry about my thoughts, I just want to help, so you feel you The idea is what matters.”

What?

What and what?

But before Gao Wen could ask a question, Jiang Yanyun came out of the kitchen and exclaimed.

"ah!"

In an instant, all eyes were cast, and Gao Hongli stepped forward quickly. Everyone thought something had happened, but Jiang Yanyun stared at Sampras intently, and then asked in disbelief.

"Pete Sampras? Are you today's mysterious guest?"

Sampras turned his attention, presented a bouquet of flowers he had brought, and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"You must be Mrs. Gao. It's the first time we meet. I'm Pete Sampras."

Jiang Yanyun immediately covered his mouth, but the smile and surprise still showed from his eyes, and there was a sense of joy and happiness all over his body——

Back then, Jiang Yanyun liked Andre Agassi very, very much, which also became an opportunity for Gao Wen to learn tennis.

In fact, before the great opponents of "Federer vs. Nadal" created countless historical records, the world tennis world in the 1990s belonged to "Sampras vs. Agassi". Many wonderful confrontations.

So, how could Jiang Yanyun not know Agassi's old opponent?

Tobias just told Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun that he had invited a guest for Gao Wen tonight, and the Chinese people who are hospitable to guests naturally had no reason to refuse. The two nodded and agreed actively, but the guest His true identity is completely unknown.

Even though Jiang Yanyun is not a fan of Sampras—even hated Sampras because of Agassi, Jiang Yanyun still lost his composure when he watched the legend who had given countless wonderful duels on TV appear in front of him at this moment.

"Of course I know you. In the 1999 Wimbledon final, you defeated Agassi in three sets and reached the top. That is still the saddest but most memorable match for me."

Because when it comes to tennis, Jiang Yanyun's words are obviously much sharper, and the endless thoughts just keep coming out like this, talking about the classic matchups in the past like a few treasures, and the love for tennis can be felt all over the body, the gleam in his eyes Bright rays don't lie.

Now Gao Wen can truly believe that it was because of his mother's love for tennis that he set out on this path.

Out of the corner of his eye, he could see Tobias approaching. Gawain turned his eyes away temporarily, looked at Tobias, and waited for an answer.

"Grant's words before are correct. If you want to turn professional, you need a professional coaching team. At that time, we need to discuss and select together, because a correct coach can bring out the full potential of the players and let them go to the top. the right path to develop."

"However, the U.S. Open is just around the corner. I think you also need a little advice. It's not necessarily about the arrangement of the training plan, but more about the preparations before the game, psychological adjustment, and preparing for the opponent. These experiences are for you. Both are invaluable, so I hope you will have an interim coach."

"More accurately, it's more of an advisor than a coach."

"I thought about it and Pete was the perfect fit, but I wasn't sure if he was interested, after all he had said he wasn't fit to be a coach and he would never be a coach, so I called and asked his opinion."

Pete Sampras~lightnovelpub.net~After Federer broke the record of 14 Grand Slams, he is still the number one in the eyes of countless fans. Naturally, many players hope that he can be their coach, but Sampras Russ turned them all down, including Federer.

but now?

Tobias shrugged, "He hopes to give you some help, for free."

In fact, Sampras did not hide his love for Gao Wen during the singles final of the National Championships. He has been eager to give Gao Wen some advice, and then see how Gao Wen will grow up.

Tobias was there to witness all this. He knew that Sampras treated the young man differently, so he sent the invitation.

Tobias wanted to surprise Gawain, but now that Gawain's scrutiny was on his eyes, Tobias's brain cooled down, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly realized something:

Did he cross the line?
