The latest website: The draw for the 2014 US Open has been released as early as Monday, attracting much attention.

In the 1/4 area, Djokovic is in charge.

On the whole, the competition in this area is not strong, and there is a lack of strong opponents worth mentioning. The biggest highlight needs to wait until the quarterfinals, because the matchup in the quarterfinals is the eighth seed Murray. If it goes well, Djoko The two giants of Vichy and Murray will compete for a semi-final seat.

But the premise is that Murray needs to face the ninth seed Jo-Wilfried-Tsonga (jo-wilfried-tsonga) who just defeated himself in the Rogers Cup in the fourth round. Teacher Djokovic.

In the 2/4 area, Wawrinka leads.

This is also considered a dead zone, fifth seed Raonic, tenth seed Kei Nishikori, thirteenth seed Isner, twenty-first seed Mikhail-Youzhny All are concentrated here, among which Raonic is the champion of this year's US Open series, and his competitiveness is very strong.

In addition, tomorrow's rising stars Kyrgios, Sock, and Vasek-Pospisil (vasek-pospisil) are all drawn to this division.

In the 3/4 area, Ferrer sits in charge.

This area is generally considered to be a melee, because the strength is close and there are countless development possibilities. Ferrer, nicknamed "Stable Man", has always lacked a kind of domineering in the Grand Slam. The two-time US Open semi-finalist and 2012 French Open runner-up has a solid resume, but he is still not a giant player.

In this zone, Berdych, Marin-cilic, Ernests-gulbis, Kevin-Anderson and so on are all gathered , Everyone has the possibility of a breakthrough, but no one can have the strength to win.

Moreover, the former world No. 1 Hewitt is also in this division. Also, Tim is here too.

In the 4/4 area, Federer leads.

Despite the lack of serious competitors, potential landmines are everywhere, Gael-Monfils (Gael-Monfils), Richard-Gasquet (Richard-Gasquet), Fabio Fognini ( -fognini) and roberto-bautista-agut, among others.

All of them are competitive and impactful players who can cause chaos.

In addition, in the top eight matchup, Federer's matchup is Dimitrov, known as "Little Federer". If they can meet, it will also be an interesting matchup.

Looking at the four divisions, on the whole, the upper half is full of difficulties, while the lower half is more open to competition. If you want to make an upset, then the 3/4 and 4/4 districts are undoubtedly the best choices. But the draw still requires a little bit of luck.

Generally speaking, there is basically no media attention for the qualifying rounds and the draw of wild card players, because the attention of the players is basically close to zero.

Unless it is Serena Williams returning from injury and playing in the Grand Slam with a wild card, people will wonder which division the Queen will disrupt. Otherwise, who cares which draw the qualifiers and wild card players enter where?

But today, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao arrived at the press conference early, waiting for the result of the lottery—

In any case, they all wanted to see where Gao Wen, a Chinese boy, was assigned, and it was different from Wu Di and Zhang Ze before. It was because they knew nothing about Gao Wen, so they inevitably looked forward to it. Especially when I saw the three glittering challenge trophies, I tried my best to suppress my expectations, but I still couldn't control my expectations.

The process of supplementary lottery drawing is very simple. From the beginning of the 1/4 area to the end of the 4/4 area, every time you see a blank, just draw the name of a qualifying player or wild card player from the box, and then paste it accordingly.

Zone 1/4...no.

Hu Litao secretly regretted that he missed the opportunity—

Aleksandr-nedovyesov, pablo-carreno-busta, radek-stepanek All are unseeded players.

Among them, Nedovsoyev's strength is mediocre, basically at the challenge level; Stepanek has been brilliant, and even entered the quarterfinals of Wimbledon in 2006, but now his state has declined significantly, and it may not be possible to fight hard. No chance.

Pity.

Soon, the draw ceremony entered the 2/4 zone.

Zhan Jun has a good eye, and after a cursory scan, he noticed that Raonic, Kei Nishikori, Lukas-Rosol, and Benjamin-Becker's matchup picks are all Temporarily vacant; moreover, the vacancy at the bottom of the 3/8 draw is aimed at No. 13 seed Isner.

The situation is not good.

The entire 2/4 district was not doing well, Zhan Jun couldn't help but shook his head secretly, nudged Hu Litao with his elbow, and gestured with his eyes.

Hu Litao reacted immediately, and his brows were also furrowed. He also noticed Isner at the first time.

Isner, this is a tough guy. Not only is he the current No. 1 guy in the United States, he was ranked in the top ten in the world in the first half of the year; he is also the most difficult type of player in the tour.

Serve cannon.

After Andy Roddick, Isner is the representative cannon in the new generation of American clubs.

Moreover, the most frightening thing is that the second serve also has the ability to speed up, and can use rotation to break the balance when needed, which also ensures his stability.

Compared with Roddick, Isner is two meters tall, and his biggest shortcoming is his mobility.

In the tournament, it would be a headache for any player to meet Isner, because Isner's serve is very stable, basically it can be said to be impenetrable, even in the final set, which also means that in Iraq Snell's serve was difficult to find opportunities.

And if there is a slight mistake in his own serve, it only needs a break point to be caught by Isner, which may mean that the game is gone.

In Isner's resume, there are two most impressive achievements:

One is the first round of the 2010 Wimbledon Tennis Championships, where he and Nicolas Mahut teamed up to create a historical record.

The two played a score of "70:68" in the final set of the fifth set. The game lasted for three days and took a total of eleven hours and five minutes. It broke the record for the longest game and the most games. , the most aces in a single game, the most winning points in a single game, and a series of records.

In the end ~lightnovelpub.net~ Isner won.

In the past, the Grand Slam tournaments uniformly adopted the five-set best-of-three system, and the final set must be a "long set". Only when one side wins two games in a row can they win, which made the miracle of Isner and Mahu.

Later, for the sake of TV broadcasting, the long-set tiebreaker system disappeared in the four Grand Slams one after another, which also means that the historical record of Isner and Mahu cannot be broken.

The second is the first round of the French Open in 2011. He became the first player in history to force Nadal into the final set in the French Open. Although Nadal won five sets in the end, this game is still recorded in history—

This is still the case until 2021, because Nadal has only played two five-set battles in the French Open, one of which was against Isner.

From here, it can be seen how difficult Isner is, and this is obviously not the best matchup choice in the first round.
