Chapter 692 The Battle of Focus

"6:2", "6:3".

In the second semi-final, it took only 62 minutes to decide the outcome. Djokovic swept and defeated Kei Nishikori with an unparalleled performance.

So, "Djokovic VS Gawain" is here!

This year's US Open semi-final matchup will be repeated in Paris.

In Flushing, Gao Wen turned out to be a dark horse. No matter how he performed, the fans and audience were more or less "dissatisfied":

In fact, it is not so much dissatisfaction as strangeness.

Because Gao Wen jumped out of the cracks in the rocks, did not have a strong record, but broke all expectations. Even if he defeated many masters on the road to promotion, he still lacked convincingness. It's just a meteor, fleeting—

Now, Isner and Wawrinka are all injured, Burelli and Kyrgios are both underweight, and Kei Nishikori and Cilic are also dark horses.

These victories are hard to convince.

The only one worth mentioning is Djokovic.

After all, not long ago, Djokovic defeated Federer to win the championship at Wimbledon; Flushing only lost a set when facing Murray on the way to the promotion. Shockingly unpopular, but still convincing.

It is precisely because of this victory that Suanzi and black fans have successfully avoided the negative voice of complaining about "Water Crown".

But having said that, it can be seen from Djokovic's post-match press conference that the reporters generally believed that he was distracted by his wife's pregnancy and was not in the best condition. Losing the game was an accident, which also proves that People's doubts about Gao Wen have not completely disappeared.

However, this is normal.

Just like Djokovic himself.

Between the first time he reached the top of the Australian Open in 2008 and finally won his second Grand Slam title in 2011, doubts never stopped.

In fact, this is also a problem that every athlete in competitive sports must face. They need to prove themselves again and again, win one victory after another, and win championships one after another, in order to truly gain a foothold in their field , otherwise, a meteor is always a meteor.

Now, the opportunity has finally come!

After the U.S. Open came out, Gao Wen actually performed well: two masters in Shanghai and Paris, one semi-final and one final, and he also reached the final in Valencia. The overall competitive state still maintained a high level.

However, like the US Open, the results are still a little convincing.

In the four tournaments, Gao Wen only defeated two top ten players in the world, Berdych and Raonic; but faced with the two giants of Nadal and Murray, both of them were defeated.

The gold content of victory still needs to be tested.

Of course, throughout the Asian season and the European indoor season, Gao Wen's overall performance is still second to none. With more expectations:

Looking forward to Gao Wen can really carry the banner of the youth storm of the new generation, just like Raonic defeated Federer in an upset, and prove himself again.

Moreover, if Gao Wen beats Djokovic again, this time it can no longer be called an upset, after all, this will be the second time.

All of these have given a touch of bright color to the last Masters championship matchup in 2014.

The battle for focus, no doubt about it.

"Ahhh!"

"Gawain!"

"Ah! Ahhh!"

When Gao Wen took the lead on the stage of the finals under the introduction of the host, there was a burst of hoarse shouts from the audience stands.

boom.

Just like that, the stone exploded in a shocking manner, even though the audience was full of applause, it still seemed very abrupt, so that the eyes of the audience cast their eyes on it.

Gao Wen himself was taken aback, as if someone was yelling in his ear, he reflexively followed the sound, and the result was very unexpected——

It turned out to be the group of fans who happened to meet Dimitrov at the entrance of the tavern that night.

Gao Wen didn't even ask for their names, but the faces, leaving the dim light at the entrance of the tavern in his memory and entering the bright halo of the center court scene, gradually became clear, but they could easily wake up the memory.

Gao Wen thought that they were not tennis fans, but simply liked sports, and then occasionally watched Federer's games, and seeing them in the final at this moment was purely a surprise.

"Hey!"

"Gawain!"

"The Maiden Knight!"

The audience noticed Gao Wen's gaze, waved their arms one by one, and greeted happily, brimming with youthful energy.

A smile naturally rose from the corner of Gawain's mouth, and he was always happy to feel the cheers of support anytime and anywhere.

Gawain also waved his hand to signal, and then made a movement of picking out his ears, tilting his head and patted his ears, as if his ears might get water or screws might fall out, and responded to their shouts and roars with such movements. :

Excessive noise, mechanical failure.

No words are needed, one action is enough, successfully making the troublesome Parisian audience burst into laughter, and even Djokovic standing behind couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

However, Gao Wen continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened, arrived at his players' rest area, collected his attention, and focused on the upcoming game:

the fourth time!

Facing one of the "Big Four" for the fourth time in just three months, although his dream of challenging Federer in Paris did not come true, he came to Djokovic for the second time.

When I first appeared on the challenge stage in July, I wove the wildest and most magnificent dreams in my mind, and now I am realizing them again and again.

Gao Wen clearly knew that any time, any game, any time against the Big Four, the game would not be easy.

More importantly, facing any member of the Big Four~lightnovelpub.net~, if they want to defeat each other in a row, the difficulty will increase exponentially, even if the Big Four are no exception to each other—

Obviously, Djokovic, who lost unexpectedly last time, must be fully prepared for today's game.

But precisely because of this, Gao Wen's fighting spirit became more and more high, even more exciting than when he challenged Djokovic for the first time at the US Open.

What is certain is that regardless of the outcome, every time you face off against members of the Big Four across the net, it is a valuable learning and growth opportunity. Naturally, different games have different content, and it can become the energy for your own transformation. For this game , Every minute and every second is worth cherishing.

Facts also prove this point.

Even though Gao Wen was mentally prepared, physically and mentally prepared to face the storm, the actual situation was far beyond imagination.

Everything happened so viciously, the game had just started forty-one minutes, and Djokovic had already won the first set in his pocket.

"6:1".

Ding dong, Gao Wen got a fried dough stick as a gift from Djokovic.
