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

In this game, Anderson continued the good form of defeating Wawrinka in the previous round, giving full play to his advantages on the indoor hard court, and performed steadily.

Especially in the serve and forehand links, he played exceptionally well. He always took the initiative in his serve, and his solid attack won a lot of applause.

However, in terms of key points, Gao Wen was better. At the opening stage of the first set and the closing stage of the second set, he seized the opportunity to break serve, and won the whole game in a concise and efficient way.

A quarter-final battle has come to an end, and there are still three quarter-final battles gearing up.

Center Court, the second game, "Federer VS Raonic".

Although the opponents include Federer, who owns the global home court, and Raonic is doing his best to ensure his first qualification for the year-end finals; but among the four games today, the discussion of this matchup is not as hot as the first two. Famous, can only be ranked third.

reason?

So far, Federer and Raonic have met six times in their careers, and Federer is still undefeated; moreover, Federer is always handy when facing the cannon of serve, with the changeable receiving and unpredictable rhythm of the ball. Put the cannons in an uncomfortable position.

Among them, two duels took place this year, namely Wimbledon in May and Cincinnati in August. Federer won both games without losing a set.

Coupled with the fact that Federer has been feeling hot recently, he has successively reached the top in Shanghai and Basel. At the end of the game, he showed the courage to compete for the year-end world number one; , although it did not affect the follow-up schedule, it was also shrouded in shadow.

From all aspects, Federer is more favored side.

However-

An upset appeared.

"7:6(5, "7:5".

Raonic defeated Federer in straight sets for the first time in his career and advanced to the semi-finals of the Paris Masters. Not only did he end his six-game losing streak against Federer; he also firmly grasped the opportunity with outstanding performance. Looking at other people's winks will directly ensure the qualification for the year-end finals.

really!

2014 was a season full of variables and turmoil. Even at the end of the year, the competition for the bayonet's popularity still continued the situation of contention among a hundred schools of thought.

Like the first quarter-final match, Raonic also grasped the key points. The difference in the final points of the two games was only two points, but he was determined and tenacious enough. Raonic withstood the test , and ushered in a breakthrough in his career—

Regardless of the results of other games, Raonic will be the first player among the "post-90s" to appear on the stage of the year-end finals.

Following the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open, the year-end finals also ushered in a new situation. Immediately after the match, social media was blown up.

However, the game continues.

The third game, "Kei Nishikori VS Ferrell".

The key to this game is that this is a head-to-head confrontation between two contenders for the year-end finals.

Moreover, Raonic has entered the semi-finals, which also means that the situation is completely clear. Murray, Berdych, and Raonic have confirmed their seats, and now there is only the last one left to London, Kei Nishikori Or Ferrer:

Winners win tickets; losers get eliminated.

Unintentionally, Raonic's upset victory over Federer made the third game bloody, more tense and more exciting.

The most important thing is that Kei Nishikori and Ferrer have similar playing styles. Every confrontation between the two players is very fierce. They have played against each other seven times in their careers. Kei Nishikori has won four and Ferrer has won three. It also added a tragic color to the game.

The progress of the game also proved this point.

"6:3", Ferrer won the first set.

"7:6 (5, Kei Nishikori saved the match point and pulled back a set.

In the final set, they also fought until the last moment, "6:4", Kei Nishikori had the last laugh.

This also continues the overall status curve of the two players this year. Ferrer has declined slightly, while Kei Nishikori has continued to rise. The result is not surprising.

So far, the eight seats in the year-end finals have all been settled. Murray and Berdych have secured their seats steadily, and Kei Nishikori and Raonic got on the bus at the last moment with their outstanding performance.

Ferrer, Dimitrov, and Cilic lost their chances because of their own losses; at the same time, Gawain, who was the most demanding, was out of the game even if he continued to win.

what does that mean?

This means that in addition to Raonic setting off a youth storm to create history, Kei Nishikori also wrote history and became "the first Asian player ever to enter the men's singles field of the year-end finals".

Although in the men's doubles arena, countless famous Asian players have emerged, and even won the Grand Slam and the year-end finals championship; but the singles is another story.

Waiting and waiting, finally ushered in a breakthrough this year—

The second top ten in the world, the Asian civil war in the second week of the first Grand Slam, the first Grand Slam champion, the first year-end finals and so on.

The surprises ~lightnovelpub.net~ are indeed one after another.

The media has already begun to carnival, and they can't wait to focus their attention on London, so that they completely forget that the Paris Masters is still going on.

The fourth game is also the last game of the fifth game day, "Djokovic VS Murray".

The confrontation between the two giants is eye-catching at any time.

What's more, Murray started the frantic scoring mode at the end of the year, and the recovery momentum of the state is obvious, but to what extent the recovery and whether the impact of the injury still exists, this still needs to be tested by the old opponent——

In terms of the probability of winning or losing, Djokovic has defeated Murray at the US Open and the Imperial Capital consecutively. Obviously, the number one in the world still has a certain advantage; It is the most important thing, one test and one measurement, the same is true for all tennis fans.

In this game, Gawain and Raonic, who had already finished the game before, both appeared on the scene to watch the game. The two friends did not feel the imminent imminent confrontation in the next round, and watched the game side by side in a friendly relationship; until the end of the game At that time, Kei Nishikori also appeared in the audience stands.

This is the charm of the "Big Four".
