Chapter 586: dream bubble

There are many people who are popular.

This is an eternal truth, just like after Djokovic won the Australian Open for the first time, he has been a moving target for nearly two years.

During those years, Djokovic often withdrew halfway through the game due to physical reasons, and often when the score was behind, but he couldn't see any signs of injury, most of which were heat stroke, Cramps and the like, over time, both players and fans dislike Djokovic very, very much, complaining that the new Grand Slam champion has the ability but has no will.

The condemnation has never stopped, both inside and outside the industry.

It was not until 2011, when Djokovic completed his metamorphosis and won three Grand Slam trophies within a year, that all the controversies were calmed down.

Many years later, Djokovic explained it. After a doctor's in-depth examination, it was discovered that his body was actually allergic to a kind of grain protein. This is an uncommon allergy, and he never knew it. Therefore, the body is often in a state of exhaustion and allergies, which led to frequent retirements in 2009 and 2010.

After that, Djokovic began to try a gluten-free diet, adjusted his diet in an all-round way, bid farewell to allergies, recovered his body, and then started the journey to the top.

Now, the same is true for Gao Wen.

Reaching the top of the U.S. Open can inspire players like Kubert and become a role model; at the same time, it can irritate players like Koginakis and become a target. Things are always two sides of the same coin, with pros and cons , While enjoying the halo of success, you also need to bear the pressure.

All of this was unfamiliar to Gao Wen.

From last week's Gulbis to this week's Koginakis, similar situations will continue in the future, unless Gawain can continue to prove himself and beat them on the field until he is like Djoko The world can be quieted down through countless victories and countless champions like Vich to silence those negative voices.

However, freshness is freshness, but Gao Wen was not surprised. After all, his grievances with Kyrgios and Koginakis had begun long before the US Open.

However, for Tim, his little heart still couldn't bear it.

"…Are you OK?"

After holding back for a long time, Tim looked at Gawain and uttered such a sentence.

Gawain was amused by Tim's expression, "It's okay, of course I'm fine."

"So... what's going on with him...?" Tim stammered so hard that he couldn't speak.

That's right, the honest Tim is a kid who is immersed in the court wholeheartedly. He hasn't seen the feasting and feasting in the real world yet, so it's normal to feel the shock for a while.

"It's nothing, it's just the story that he wanted to beat me but failed so he became angry." Gawain summed up the ins and outs of everything in one sentence.

Thinking about it seriously, isn't that the case with Gawain, Kyrgios, and Koginakis? Competitive sports, sometimes it is so simple.

Now Gawain can finally understand the meaning of Kyrgios' words:

I just like it when people hate me but can't beat me.

Honestly, it's really... very cool.

However, how could someone as low-key and humble as Gao Wen be so arrogant and conceited?

All he does is go out on the court and beat the trolls upright, that's all, the game is always the best way to fight back, it's easy to shut them up.

If possible, Gao Wen really wanted to face Kojinakis again in Shanghai. On the one hand, he wanted to test his growth in the past two months, as well as Kojinakis' growth; Teach Koginakis a good lesson, he still feels aggrieved by today's conflict.

However, given the choice, he still wants to challenge Nadal again.

After all, that's Nadal!

Of course, ideas belong to ideas, but competitive sports cannot be run on ideas, after all, it still needs to be played out game by game.

Regardless of whether it is facing Koginakis or Nadal, before that, Gao Wen must win two consecutive games before he can have the opportunity to talk to one of them in the third round; If he lost the chain in the first two rounds, then he should just keep his mouth shut.

This time in Shanghai, Tim and Gao Wen's signing luck is average:

In the doubles arena, not to mention facing the Australian Open champion in the first round, and facing the top seed Bryan Brothers in the second round, it is extremely dangerous to draw.

The same is true for the singles arena.

Thiem's ​​first-round opponent is the Czech player Lukas-Rosol (Lukas-Rosol), a player who rose to fame by knocking out Nadal in the second round of Wimbledon in 2012. There is no outstanding performance in the singles arena, but he still has a place in the professional circuit.

If he beats Rosol, Thiem will challenge top seed Djokovic in the second round.

Gao Wen played as a seeded player for the first time. The opponents in the first two rounds were relatively not that strong, but in the third round, he might meet the second seed Nadal—

This is also a repeat of the quarter-finals of last week's Imperial Capital Open.

In fact, Nadal, who has just returned from injury, is far from reaching his best state, and needs to adjust to the best through more games. After defeating Gao Wen to advance to the semi-finals last week, Nadal lost for the first time in his career Berdych, the latter has indeed reached his peak this year, with solid basic skills and a balanced offense and defense, he is very competitive.

Therefore, if Nadal and Gao Wen meet again, the outcome is still full of suspense.

For everyone else, playing against Nadal for the second week in a row is undoubtedly a very, very bad pick, but for Gao Wen, it is an incentive:

He is eager to face Nadal again, and he is also eager to challenge Nadal again, and it is a lot of fun to compete with masters.

Therefore, Gao Wen was indeed full of energy.

After the doubles match, Gao Wen and Tim returned to the training ground. The two doubles partners became each other's training partners again and had a training match to prepare for the upcoming singles match.

Here~lightnovelpub.net~ Gao Wen has temporarily put aside the turmoil outside the field and devoted himself to training wholeheartedly;

On that side, the first-round singles matchup of "Korginakis VS Faye Lopez" has begun—

The competition was more intense than expected.

Koginakis seemed to be stimulated, and vented all his anger and uselessness in the game. In the first set, both sides broke each other's two serve games and entered the tie-break; in the end, Koginakis saved four After an inventory check, he won the first set with a small score of "14:12".

After winning the first set, Koginakis yelled at Faye Lopez for a long time, and no one else understood why.

However, **** is still old and spicy.

Faye Lopez quickly gained a foothold and won the second and third sets with a score of "6:3" and "6:4", defeating Koginakis to advance to the second round.

So... the dream bubble of "Korginakis VS Gawain 2.0" burst before it could be inflated, and there was no suspense at all.
