Who would have thought that Gao Wen didn't even need to speak, just made a gesture, and the whole effect came out, easily filling the entire press conference hall with cheerful laughter——

Could it be that this is the derivative version of "Silence is better than sound"?

The reporters who went back and forth in the corridor to capture the noise of the press conference with their ears were full of question marks, jumping up like moles, hoping to penetrate the crowd to see what was going on in the room, which also made the people in the corridor The air was boiling, and it was really lively.

As for Gao Wen's hand gesture, no matter what he is praying for, it is certain that Gao Wen's goal is to defeat his opponent and become the Grand Slam champion, so the reporters are completely free to interpret:

"Gao Wen, pray that the finals will continue to create miracles."

"Gao Wen, leave your fate to God."

"Gavin, reverently awaiting the winner of Federer and Cilic."

"Gao Wen, the young player is full of confidence to meet all challenges."

"Gao Wen: The expected opponent is..."

No matter how it is interpreted, the free play of media reporters can detonate topics, and has its own humorous effect, which is undoubtedly the favorite of reporters.

The post-match press conference came to an end amidst laughter. Obviously, Gao Wen had won a group of supporters for himself, but the work of the reporters was not over yet.

Not only is the draft of the first semi-final still waiting to be written, but another semi-final will be played soon, which is really a busy day.

Moreover, it is also a day worth looking forward to, but few people can foresee it in advance, and it is also a day recorded in history.

When the first men's singles semi-final at the US Open in 2014 ended, it was around three o'clock in the morning in mainland China. The world shrouded in the vast night had already fallen asleep, and only a few night owls were still active.

Therefore, although Gao Wen's history-making keywords can already be seen on the hot search list, it will take some time for the news frenzy to break out.

Then, the second men's singles semi-final took the lead -

"Cilić VS Federer".

Cilic, who was born in 1988, can be regarded as becoming famous at a young age.

When he was a teenager, he was appreciated by his fellow Croatian "wimbledon wild card miracle creator" Ivanisevic. He also performed very well in the youth arena; Lost for a while, unable to adapt to the professional rhythm for a long time.

It was not until 2008 when Cilic reached the top of the US New Haven Championship that he completed his transformation and breakthrough, and in the following 2009 he dedicated his masterpiece of fame in the first battle, defeating in the fourth round of the US Open. Murray, who was the second in the world at the time, reached the quarterfinals.

Cilic is a very typical hard-court player, with sharp serve and forehand. However, compared with pure cannon players, Cilic's basic skills are very solid, and the basic skills are more delicate, which is reflected in the baseline hitting skills. The softness of the tennis ball can also be seen in the rigid force, coupled with his excellent mobility, this also makes him more impactful and stalemate.

As early as 2007, Cilic had reached the fourth round at the Australian Open and Wimbledon respectively; in 2010, Cilic played well at the Australian Open, first defeating the previous year's US Open champion Roddick, the American cannon, broke into the semi-finals and also ranked among the top ten in the world for the first time in his career that year.

However, in the following 2011, he was plagued by injuries and fell into a trough, and he did not perform much for two full years; in April 2013, he was tested positive for banned drugs during the competition in Munich. Glucose, an illegal drug, was banned by the ITF for nine months, which was later reduced to four months on appeal.

In October 2013, Cilic came back from the ban.

This year, it is still difficult for Cilic. It is a slow climbing process. The second round of the Australian Open, the third round of the French Open, the quarter-finals of Wimbledon, and then came to the US Open, where he performed best overall. Once broke into the quarter-finals twice, Cilic broke out with amazing energy.

He defeated South Africa's Anderson in the third round, and eliminated France's Simon in five sets in the fourth round. Cilic finally found his best form and swept Berdych in three sets in the quarterfinals, which also won Cilic The chance to pick Federer in the semifinals.

In his career, Cilic faced Federer with five losses and zero wins. He has never been able to beat Federer, and he has only won two sets after losing eleven sets.

It is worth mentioning that in the Rogers Cup just two weeks before the start of the US Open, Federer had just defeated Cilic in straight sets in the quarter-finals.

From all aspects, Federer's defeat of Cilic seems to be a high-probability event, and it may even be less suspenseful than the other semi-finals. However... this year's US Open is destined to witness the birth of history—

"6:3", "6:4", "6:4".

The final score was straight sets, but the winning side was not Federer, but Cilic, who had never beaten Federer.

Marin Cilic, who defeated Federer for the first time in his career, successfully ushered in a breakthrough in the second Grand Slam semi-final of his career.

boom!

Boom boom boom!

The media directly fry all the pans.

The unpopularity, not one, but two, or two consecutive unpopularities, instantly stunned the global media, and their brains froze for a while.

One upset can make the media so excited that they can't sleep, but two upsets can make all the media fall into the ice cellar. The development of the matter is really not good.

what does that mean?

This means that since 2005, for a full ten years, for the first time in the Grand Slam finals, no one of the "Big Four" has been seen.

It can be foreseen now that the ticket revenue and ratings of the finals should be terrible. More importantly, is the men's tennis world going to change?

The rise of the "Big Four" ~lightnovelpub.net~ began with Federer's absolute dominance on grass and hard courts, and Nadal's absolute dominance on clay—the most notable sign is that Nadal first reached the top of the French Open in 2005, and the King of Clays completed it at the French Open Four consecutive championships, Federer has completed five consecutive championships at Wimbledon and the US Open.

In this situation, until Djokovic broke the blockade and reached the Australian Open championship in 2008, Federer and Nadal have jointly won a total of eleven Grand Slam titles, and then Djokovic and Murray both rose , "Fenner Jue" has gradually evolved into the current "Big Four".

Among them, Del Potro beat Federer to the top of the US Open in 2009 is a small episode. Djokovic won three consecutive Grand Slam titles in 2011 and has firmly occupied the third pole. Murray has won the US Open successively. Net and Wimbledon champions and topped the 2012 London Olympic champions to complete the blockade together.

The origin of the title of "Big Four" is not only because of the four players' control of the championship - the four players have indeed basically won all the Grand Slam and Masters championships; but also because of the stability and strength of the four players, forming a The first group directly widened the gap with other players.

Until today, the blockade of the Big Four has been broken.
