Match Point

Chapter 848: by chance

Chapter 849

No one could have expected that the series "Gao Wen VS Australia" unexpectedly grabbed the headlines and became one of the biggest highlights of the 2015 Australian Open.

Absolutely real, totally bursty, live.

Fantastic! With relish! All attention!

Before the start of the third round, the heat of discussions on the "Gaowen VS Tomic" match was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye on the social network.

Even professional sports reporters from different media, in addition to writing articles, have published relevant discussions on their social network platforms.

Line of sight, fully gathered.

This is definitely an unexpected topic!

But why?

Could it be that the personal grievances between Gawain and Kyrgios, Koginakis and others have been revealed?

Obviously not.

In fact, everything was a coincidence. Before the match between Gao Wen and Tomic landed in the Hisense Stadium, two things happened at the Australian Open on the fifth match day:

one.

The Australian players suffered heavy losses in a row. With Stosur losing to the American player Coco Vandeweghe (-Vandeweghe) and stopping the second round, this also means that there are no local players in the women's singles draw, and the entire army is wiped out .

At the same time, the men's singles field also suffered a devastating blow. So far, the ten players who have entered the draw for the main draw, after the end of the fourth match day, there are only the last two left, Kyrgios and Tomic. All players lost.

Only two days ago, the Chinese media was still sighing. The overall performance of this year's singles was disappointing, while the Australian fans were cheering; but they did not expect that the feng shui took turns, and the hustle and bustle of the party had not had time to fully settle, and then Australia also ushered in the brink of The crisis of group destruction.

Second.

On the fifth day of the match, the Australian Open broke the biggest upset since the start of the game:

Federer vs. Seppi in Match 3 of the matinee at Rod Laver Stadium —

right! It is the Sepi in the "Sepi's Law" that only works against Federer.

As of this year's Melbourne Park, Federer has maintained an impressive record of winning all ten games against Seppi, and even lost only one set. The overall performance is very strong; Being able to reach the top of the championship is a strange thing in tennis.

For Federer fans, this is not a good thing, because even if Federer beats Seppi, I am afraid that this year's Australian Open championship is still in doubt.

But at least one thing is certain, if Federer wants to continue to win the title hope, then must beat Seppi.

From all aspects, Federer has no chance of losing.

However, "3:1".

The winner is Seppi, who not only ended his ten-game losing streak against Federer, but also broke out the biggest upset since the start of this year's Australian Open.

This loss ended Federer's 11 consecutive years of reaching the semi-finals at Melbourne Park, and also created Federer's worst Australian Open record in 14 years.

Before the Australian Open, Federer had just won the Brisbane Championship and won the 1,000th victory of his career. He was considered the favorite to win the championship. The top eight in the 4/4 zone against "Federer VS Murray" was also after the draw was released. The most watched group of duels, but they did not expect to end in the third round.

When the fans expected Federer to break the "Seppi's Law", they did not expect that this time Federer simply lost to Seppi directly.

So far, Federer has still not been able to break the two-year Grand Slam championship drought; and what is even more frightening is that the impact of age and injuries is gradually becoming apparent:

Last year at the US Open, Federer lost to Cilic, who had won all five of his matches; at the Australian Open this year, Federer lost to Seppi, who was unbeaten in ten games.

Thirty-three-year-old Federer will inevitably face more challenges in his next career.

It was a "bad day" for Federer, and it was many, many, many "bad days" for Federer fans.

"Who would have thought that Federer would also be one of those people who stopped in the first week of a Grand Slam."

"Federer got annoyed by Sappi's Law, so he just lost to Sappi this time."

"My Australian Open ends here."

"Heartbroken. It's not true that Federer stopped in the first week of a Grand Slam."

"When was the last time Federer was eliminated in the first week of a Grand Slam? It must have been in the last century."

Undoubtedly, Federer is still the most popular player in Melbourne. The vast crowds of fans are looking forward to the Swiss King's further success, but they did not expect that the sudden blow made the fans and audience a little dizzy. The whole world All spin up.

Sad, sigh, lost, confused, dull.

The low air pressure pervading Melbourne Park dragged the ankles of Federer fans slowly sinking, which more or less resonated with Australian fans and Chinese fans—

In any case, fans who like Federer are all over the world. Apart from other games, at this moment, they are all the same people.

It was also against this background that the match between Gao Wen and Tomic took place.

The Chinese fans are eager for a victory to awaken their enthusiasm, and the Australian fans are eager for a victory to lighten their day like never before.

After all, now that the men's and women's singles draws are all stacked up, Australia is down to the last two hopefuls, and they are more earnest than ever.

The right time, the right place, and the harmony of people.

Although it is not appropriate to use it here, it is precisely because things collide one after another and complete the superposition, which makes all eyes turn towards "a game that shouldn't attract too much attention is just ordinary." In the third round, there are no gimmicks, no topics, and no enmity." Gathering.

Can you imagine?

In fact, this was the first encounter between Gao Wen and Tomic.

Even the Australian Open Organizing Committee itself, when the fourth match day was in the middle of the schedule for the next day, did not expect such a situation.

In the case of two local players ~lightnovelpub.net~ one is Kyrgios against Serbian player Victor Trojki, both unseeded players, one is Gawain against Tomic, Not only is Gao Wen the eighth seed, but Tomic is also a rising star who became famous earlier.

As a result, Kyrgios once again entered the night game at Margaret Court Stadium, and even Murray was squeezed to Hisense Stadium; then the game between Gawain and Tomic was also arranged at Hisense Stadium.

From this, it can be seen that the organizing committee really never dreamed that the focus of attention would be so overwhelming towards Gao Wen and Tomic.

Strictly speaking, the series "Gaowen VS Australia" has actually produced two episodes, against Tomic. This should be the third episode of the series. The first two episodes only caused some discussions on a small scale. Fifteen minutes after Seppi upset Federer, he landed at the Hisense Stadium.

Then-

exploded.

The ratings just exploded.
