Match Point

Chapter 771: desert flower

"It's not shameful for a grand slam to jump like this. People who don't know think that the number of champions is already in double figures."

"The champion is the champion. There is nothing to say about it, but there is only one Grand Slam. Is it necessary to blow it like this?"

"I think it's the water crown, don't blow it anymore, we are all embarrassed to see it."

"All the fans have no brains, are you sure they are not flattering? It has only been a long time since they turned into a professional, and they are blowing like this. Haven't you heard the story of Shang Zhongyong?"

"Let the bullets fly for a while, and it won't be black if it doesn't blow."

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Obviously, even the Grand Slam and Masters champions still can't silence the trolls.

In fact, even Murray still hasn't been able to get rid of the fans' complaints:

Countless fans believe that it should be the "Big Three Era", and Murray is at most at the "3+1" level, and he is dead.

So much so that Murray himself often joked, "Oh, the three of them are a small team, defeating my sniper team with double figures."

"He needs to continue to prove himself", this "he" is Wawrinka and Gao Wen.

Everyone said that the world of men's professional tennis changed in 2014. It was precisely because of Wawrinka and Gawain that all the firepower was concentrated on the two.

Moreover, the louder and fanatical the support fans are, the crazier and more lively the social network traffic is, the more the black fans shout and resist, just like adolescent rebellious children:

"Everyone says that, we just want to say that, hmph!"

That's not all.

At the same time, the pursuit and praise from supporters is also an objective pressure, and the expectations are getting higher and higher, and even more and more outrageous—

Among the layman audience of many "victory fans", they even think that Gao Wen can easily punch Djokovic and step on Nadal, and winning the Grand Slam championship again is as simple as drinking water and eating. Start to imagine the beautiful picture of Gao Wen ruling the tennis world.

Looking forward to breaking through the sky step by step; pressure is also rolling down layer upon layer, which is obviously not a good thing.

Therefore, Yujia needs to maintain a calm mind. Even though he has many expectations, he still needs to remain objective and calm.

At the very least, they should take a look at Gao Wen's performance in Doha, evaluate the training situation during the offseason, and then make a judgment.

However, when the plane lands and arrives at the baggage carousel, when you look up, you can see a giant poster wrapped in columns, filling every corner of your vision—

Gao Wen, Gao Wen, all are Gao Wen.

Nike's latest advertising blockbuster has officially debuted in major markets around the world, overwhelming.

on the poster.

Gao Wen clapped with one hand, opened his forehand, and was running at high speed like an eagle spreading its wings. His hair was flying with the wind, and it seemed that even the tip of his hair could feel the dancing of vitality. Focusing on the tennis ball, the determination between the brows outlines the outline of the facial features bit by bit, staring at the future.

The whole person is vivid on the paper.

"What a passionate poster, right?"

Wei Jiang's voice came from beside his ear, bumping Yujia's shoulder, and he burst out laughing.

"The whole world is Gawain."

This is a joke. After finishing speaking, Wei Jiang has already started to look for his luggage, but Yu Jia looked at the posters all over the sky in front of him, but still involuntarily and uncontrollably, his heart surged, as if closing his eyes. Eyes can hear the rumble filling Arthur Ashe Stadium.

"ah!"

At the far end of the world, Gawain's passionate roar burned in the air.

Perhaps, they should have more confidence in Gao Wen—

Confidence in dealing with stress in the face of stress.

After all, they have already seen Gao Wen's performance under heavy pressure in the Paris Masters and the year-end finals, and the new season should be worth looking forward to.

Thinking of this, the footsteps became lighter, and the fatigue and sleepiness of the long-distance flight seemed to quietly dissipate in the air.

Doha, a beautiful and mysterious city.

Looking down from the plane, surrounded by the desert and the sea, it looks like a bright pearl, and the flowers and lights outline a mirage-like dream scene, but when you really enter the city, it is a completely different scene, low-key and quiet. Every corner of the city.

The streets are sparsely populated. Because of the desert climate, the daytime is very hot. If you stay outside for a short while, the direct sunlight can scorch your skin, so that people obediently stay indoors and avoid unnecessary outdoor activities.

Coupled with the well-known affluence of oil countries, there are not many taxis. People often use their own private cars to travel, and there are not many office workers. Therefore, there are no hustle and bustle of vehicles, no crowds going to work, and the whole city is quiet. It was so quiet that the sun was shining and it was hard to believe it wasn't midnight.

But it is also thanks to such a climate that Doha is a world-renowned sports resort. Every year from November to March is the most suitable season for sports. It is known as the "Sports City" in the Gulf region.

From the runner-up meeting to the World Championships to the IAAF Diamond League, there are many sports events in Doha, and so is the Doha Tennis Open.

Over the years, relying on sufficient financial support, the Dubai 500 and Doha 250 have always been star-studded, and have always been one of the most popular and recognized events on the tour. Among the big and small events, it firmly occupies a special place.

When they arrived at the hotel where they were staying, they threw their luggage in hastily. Before they could unpack the suitcase, and simply washed and took care of themselves, Yu Jia and Wei Jiang had already set off for the tennis center.

Before arriving at the destination, the sparse crowd could be seen from a distance, so that the two exchanged a line of sight.

"I finally saw a figure outside."

Except for the airport and the hotel, there are indeed too few people walking back and forth on the streets, and it is as quiet as a ghost town.

Until now, finally!

Moreover, there are more people than expected, and a lot of information can be judged from the clothes.

Men wear dark robes, blue, coffee, gray, etc., and wear white, red or plaid headscarves with a black loop on the headscarves.

The women are not black robes and veils as they are in the impression, UU reading www.uukanshu.com but bright skirts with white or even pastel headscarves. Obviously, those who come to watch tennis training/competition are young people, and in the younger generation Among them, those stereotypes are being broken bit by bit, which also makes the entire training ground colorful.

Yujia, a little surprised, this is the first time he has come to Doha to report.

"There are so many people?"

As the footsteps approached, the bustling crowds surrounding the training ground became more and more turbulent. Standing under the scorching sun to watch the training, it seemed as if the air could be distorted by the dense air, and in an instant, it was back surrounded by the hustle and bustle of human voices. middle.

Wei Jiang was not surprised at all, this was not the first time or the second time he came here.

"The rich people here in the bay are free all day long. Watching sports has always been their hobby. The top three most popular are F1 racing, horse racing and tennis."

"The attendance at the Doha Tennis Open every year is outstanding."

"Also, they know how to appreciate tennis."
