Match Point

Chapter 847: Enmity

After defeating Australia's Gross in the second round, Gao Wen's "signing luck" still has a little metaphysics, which can't be said to be bad or good.

"Good" because Philipp-Kohlschreiber, another seed player in the sub-division where Gao Wen was located, was upset and eliminated. The player who came to little trouble dropped again.

"Not good" is because the player who eliminated Kohlschreiber, Tomic, is also an Australian player, and he encountered a home player for the third consecutive round.

So, is this good luck or bad luck?

Tomic, who was born in 1992, is now ranked 66th in the world; in 2012, he reached 27th.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a talented boy.

When he was a teenager, he reached the top of the Australian Open and the US Open in singles, and when he was only 17 years old, he played for his country and represented Australia in the Davis Cup.

In 2011, Tomic, who was not yet nineteen years old, turned out to be the quarter-finals at Wimbledon. He was not only the youngest quarter-finals player since Boris Becker in 1986, but also the second in the long history. A player who accomplished such a feat at a young age is also the youngest player among the top 100 in the world.

In 2012, Tomic continued to shine in the local Grand Slam of the Australian Open. He made it to the top 16 of the fourth round and reached a new high in the world ranking, surpassing the Australian idol player Hewitt and becoming Australia's current No. The No. 2 men's singles instantly became a rising star who is favored by thousands of people.

To be precise, Tomic and Raonic almost emerged one after the other, earlier than Jannovitz, Dimitrov and others. They can be regarded as countless young players born after 1990 Among them, the first batch of those who made their way to fame set off a youthful storm in the professional tennis world.

Tomic, indeed has a very outstanding talent, although many people call him Hewitt's successor, but in fact, his real talent is closer to Federer and Murray.

On the one hand, his hitting touch is comparable to that of Federer, and he often has a magical touch for handling many returns.

On the one hand, it is his capture of fighters, comparable to Murray, who often has eye-catching shot choices in long rounds.

Of course, "comparable" is just comparable, and it is another matter to fulfill your talent.

After becoming famous, this talented boy quickly lost himself—

Speeding, drunk driving, arrests, lingering in bars, talking nonsense, and even in the tour, won the reputation of "Little Prince of Nightclubs" for himself.

However, the uproar of gossip news outside the arena is still not as heavy and thrilling as the news on the arena.

In the Miami Masters in March 2014, Tomic only resisted for 28 minutes and 20 seconds, and lost to the Finnish player Jarko Niemi with a disparity of "0:6" and "1:6". Ning (jarkko-nieminen), this is also the shortest time-consuming game in ATP history.

In the whole game, Tomic only scored 13 points.

"Passive play".

The difference from another "bad boy" Kyrgios in Australia's younger generation is that Tomic is always dreamy, careless and lost in himself. It seems that he never knows what he really wants. There are good times and bad times. Fighting spirit, but most of the time I don't know what to say.

Tomic has boasted more than once, saying that he can win a Grand Slam championship if he wants to, but deep down, he doesn't know if he really wants to win more championships.

This young talent lacks a little respect for himself, his opponents, competitions, and competitive sports. He also lacks the spirit of competitive sports.

Tomic is like bipolar disorder, going back and forth between peaks and troughs, with ups and downs, but importantly, he can't control his mood:

When it is good, it has good competitiveness; when it is not good, it goes all the way down to explore a deeper bottom line.

Mostly the latter.

At the Australian Open this year, Tomic seemed to be back on track, performing well, beating German players in two consecutive rounds, and returning to the third round after a crisp defeat in the first round last year.

Cheers!

At the moment in 2015, Australian fans have not been completely disappointed with Tomic, just like their own ineffective young son:

Despite being in and out of the police station last year for speeding and bar-hopping, parents throw their arms out in relief at the slightest sign of change from their youngest son.

What's more, this time, Tomic also carries the ardent expectations of the home fans—

Gao Wen.

No one expected that Gao Wen had already eliminated two local Australian players in a row by accident. Perhaps even the Australian Open Organizing Committee was full of astonishment.

But for local fans, Gao Wen can't continue to win, really, really can't, otherwise this guy will almost become a nightmare for Australia.

Especially in the fourth match day, Zhang Ze, who defeated Hewitt and advanced to the second round, regrettably stopped—

Play five sets again!

In the final decisive set, he was exhausted and obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. He lost "2:6" to another unseeded player from Germany, Benjamin-Becker. After all, he failed to make history. continue.

This also proved once again how inconceivable and insane the miracle Gao Wen created in Flushing last year was.

For Zhang Ze, he has no regrets.

As he himself said, he gave his all, without reservation, and when he left the court, he could turn around with his head held high.

However, for local Australian fans, there is a subtle sense of revenge.

Objectively speaking, the momentum of "Huaxia vs Australia" is not fierce, it is just a joke among the fans. After all, Gao Wen and Zhang Ze are just two people, and they have not been able to form a collective force; but more or less, because The two players defeated the local Australian players in a row, and joking discussions were inevitable.

Now, Zhang Ze is out, and Hewitt's revenge has been avenged.

Next, it's...Gao Wen's turn.

It is precisely because of this that the home fans' expectations for the next game have quietly increased:

If Gao Wen stops here, then all "grievances and grievances" will disappear, and Australian fans are willing to "forgive" this little guy.

But if Gao Wen continues to advance...

Not good.

Really bad.

Because Gao Wen's opponent in the third round was also an Australian.

See, this also happens to be the subtlest part:

If Tomic can defeat Gao Wen, it means that the Australian players have personally completed their revenge, which is very satisfying; but once Tomic loses, Gao Wen will beat three Australian players in a row, and then he will enter the Australian Open for the first time in his career. the second week.

Wait, why does this story sound familiar?

Did it already happen once last year in Flushing ~lightnovelpub.net~? So, now at Melbourne Park, is Gawain about to strut his way into Week 2 of a Grand Slam? And still stepping on the corpse(s) of Australian players?

No, really not.

So, is there anyone more suitable than Tomic?

Tomic, the legendary genius, compared to the fledgling Koginakis and the non-existent Gross, this is the real man, this is King Arthur who pulls out the sword in the stone and destroys the super villain!

Then, the cruel reality is—

"game, high, '6:4', '6:2', '6:2'..."
