"competition is over!"
Zhan Jun has explained countless games and experienced countless victories, but at this moment, he tried his best to control his emotions, and his slightly trembling voice still revealed the surge in his heart.
"In the second round of the US Open, our young player Gao Wen won three sets in a row after losing the first two sets. He withstood the severe test of a five-set battle, defeated the Italian master Borrelli, and then continued to move forward. Won two games in a row to advance to the third round and successfully reached the top 32 of the 2014 US Open!"
"No matter what the subsequent results are, Gao Wen has once again made history, and his performance of advancing to the third round in his first Grand Slam is also rare in the world."
"If I remember correctly, the last male player who advanced to the third round in his first Grand Slam at the U.S. Open was Gao Wen's first-round opponent, Isner. In 2007, he held a wild card. Isner, who competed, went straight to the third round, and then lost to Federer, the final champion of the year, 1:3."
“Now, Gawain has replicated Isner’s magic once again, making history with every step he takes, and we’re witnessing it all in the Rock Zone.
Zhan Jun is indeed an encyclopedia, with historical knowledge at his fingertips. A horizontal comparison immediately makes the audience deeply understand how rare Gao Wen's feat is. Even if the modifying prefix of "Chinese male player" is stripped away, Gao Wen's victory is also very extraordinary. Very rare.
Hu Litao's mood also soared, and he said with a smile on his face.
"The final scores of the game are '5:7', '6:7', '6:4', '6:3', '6:2'."
"The game time was finally fixed at three hours and fifty-four minutes, which is not far from four hours."
"After this game is over, another super star game is scheduled on court No. 17. Bellis, who upset Cibulkova in the first round, will face the unseeded player Diaz of Kazakhstan here. , this game is also a focus game, because the American talented girl is likely to pass another level and advance to the third round."
"If this is true, then this US Open may witness the rise of two talented young people."
Zhan Jun never expected that they would have such a day, sitting happily in the studio talking and laughing.
It can be seen from the arrangement of the US Open that Gawain and Bellis, who were both upset in the first round, have been marked as "noteworthy" future stars. They were both arranged on Court No. 17 like golden girls. , looking forward to the two players being able to drive the attendance of the audience.
At least Gawain has successfully completed his task, and it's up to Beilis next.
Boom boom boom!
Ahhhh!
Oh oh oh!
On Court No. 17, there were thunderous applause and cheers, because they witnessed a wonderful game, because they appreciated a desperate reversal of losing two and winning three, because they witnessed the rise of young players, that kind of excitement The excitement cannot be accurately expressed in words.
Because the applause and shouting were so intense that it was impossible to hold a conversation during the post-match handshake session between Gawain and Borrelli.
In fact, Gawain wanted to say a few more words.
In today's game, Borrelli taught Gao Wen another lesson on how to handle the game, how to adjust tactics, and how to grasp the rhythm.
Although Borrelli is not one of the top players on the tour, and his highest career ranking is not among the top 30, the content of this game is exceptionally rich, and the experience it brings to Gao Wen even exceeds that of the first round. , even though those contents are originally Gawain's strengths, he still has many things to learn.
The two players have been fighting for nearly four hours. Both players have played to their best, and it really feels like they are burning out.
But because of the noise in the audience, no words could be said in the end. They just hugged each other hard, exchanged a look and a smile, and everything was said without saying anything.
Ahhhh!
Ahhhh!
Even though Borrelli had left the field, the cheers and screams on Court No. 17 continued to surge, just like a grand carnival party that could go on without the players being present, and they were two Everyone was dancing and singing to their heart's content and enjoying themselves.
Crowded!
Seeing such a grand occasion in front of him, Gawain was still a little uncomfortable.
In the past, in the NCAA or Challenger League, the game ended immediately, and there was no post-game interaction between players and fans; but the Grand Slam seems to be different.
When watching the live broadcast of the game, top big-name players have interactive sessions after winning. Some are live interviews by the host, and some are interactions between players and fans. Djokovic's celebration of "sending" love to the audience is very meaningful. Iconic, in addition to giving his wristbands, jerseys, and even sneakers to the audience, etc.
So, do only big-name players have such treatment? Or is it that only the central court has relevant links?
However, after Tuesday's game, there was no interview or interaction. Gao Wen left Arthur Ashe Stadium directly. He felt that he had no fans yet, so he only needed to wave and thank the audience, otherwise he would be thrown away. It would be embarrassing to show your charming eyes to a blind man.
In this regard, Gao Wen still retains the modest virtue of Confucian culture. After all, he is a novice in Grand Slam, so it is always good to be modest and polite.
The same is true today.
Gao Wen packed up his equipment, returned to the court, showed a polite smile, waved to the audience, thanked them for coming to watch his game, then turned around and stepped forward, preparing to move towards the direction of the gathering of Chinese fans. Go -
In any case, I am very grateful to our fellow fans who came to cheer today.
As a result, he had just taken two steps when he discovered that several spectators in the stands in front of him were waving their arms at him, and then motioned for him to turn around and look behind him.
Gawain didn't know why, his eyes widened, "Back there?"
What happened next?
Turning around, Gao Wen saw at a glance that the spectator stands behind the players' dugout were mostly empty. A blond boy of eleven or twelve years old was holding a tennis ball that was as big as a basketball, and he raised his head with disappointment. Xiang mother seemed to be mumbling something.
Um?
What's going on here?
"Fans, those are your fans!"
The shouts of the audience came from behind, and the wind blew into Gawain's ears amid the noise of the whole place.
After nearly four hours of fierce fighting, Gawain paused for a moment before reacting.
ah! fan!
Wait, I've only played two matches at the US Open, and I already have fans? And not a fan of college alumni? Not a fellow fan from China?
After being stunned, Gawain put down his equipment bag and trotted back to his rest area. Then he could faintly hear the crying voice of the little boy.
"He didn't hear it. Mom, he didn't hear it!"
A look of grievance came into view, and the lady comforted him twice, but the little boy finally couldn't hold it back, and the golden peas fell one by one.
The next second, the lady raised her head and faced Gawain's gaze head-on. Seeing Gawain's bright eyes, the smile on her lips couldn't help but rise.
