There are many popular people.
This is an eternal truth, just like after Djokovic won the Australian Open championship for the first time, he was a moving target for nearly two years.
During those years, Djokovic often withdrew from the game due to physical reasons, often when the score was behind, but there was no sign of injury on him. Most of them were heat stroke, Over time, everyone from players to fans disliked Djokovic, complaining that the new Grand Slam champion had ability but no will.
The condemnation has never stopped, both within and outside the industry.
It was not until 2011, when Djokovic completed his transformation and won three Grand Slam trophies in one year, that all controversies were put to rest.
Many years later, Djokovic explained that after an in-depth examination by doctors, he discovered that his body was actually allergic to a grain protein. This was an uncommon allergic condition that he had never known about. Therefore, the body is often in a state of fatigue and allergies, which led to frequent withdrawals in 2009 and 2010.
After that, Djokovic began to try a gluten-free diet, comprehensively adjusted his diet structure, said goodbye to allergies completely, recovered his body, and then started his journey to the top.
Now, the same goes for Gawain.
Reaching the top of the US Open can inspire players like Kubert and become a role model; at the same time, it can anger players like Kogkinakis and become a target. Things are always two-sided, with pros and cons. , while enjoying the aura of success, you also need to bear the pressure.
All this is strange to Gawain.
From Gulbis last week to Kogkinakis this week, similar situations will continue in the future, unless Gao Wen can continue to prove himself and continue to defeat them on the court until he is like Djoko. Vicky silenced those negative voices through countless wins and championships, so that the world could be quiet.
However, what is new is new, but Gao Wen is not surprised. After all, his feud with Kyrgios and Kogkinakis started long before the US Open.
However, for Tim, his little heart still couldn't bear it.
"……Are you OK?"
After holding it in for a long time, Tim looked at Gawain and choked out such a sentence.
Gawain was amused by Tim's expression, "It's okay, of course I'm okay."
"Then...what happened to him?" Tim stuttered so much that he could hardly speak.
That's right, the honest and humble Tim is a child who is immersed in the court wholeheartedly. He has not yet seen the feasting and feasting of the real world, so it is normal to feel the shock for a moment.
"It's okay, it's just a story about how he tried to defeat me but failed and became angry." Gawain summed up the whole story in one sentence.
If you think about it seriously, isn't that what Gawain had with Kyrgios and Kogkinakis? Competitive sports are sometimes so simple.
Now Gawain can finally understand the meaning of Kyrgios' words:
I just like it when people hate me but can't beat me.
To be honest, it's really... cool.
However, how could a man as low-key and humble as Gawain be so arrogant and arrogant?
What he did was to go on the court and defeat the trolls with dignity. That's all. Competition is always the best counterattack, and he can easily shut them up.
If possible, Gao Wen really wants to face Kogkinakis again in the Magic City. On the one hand, it is to test his own growth in the past two months and the growth of Kogkinakis; on the other hand, Teach Kogkinakis a lesson, he is still feeling aggrieved by today's conflict.
However, if he had a choice, he still wanted to challenge Nadal again.
After all, that's Nadal!
Of course, ideas are just ideas, but competitive sports cannot operate based on ideas. After all, they still need to be played one game at a time.
Whether facing Kogkinakis or Nadal, before that, Gao Wen must win two games in a row before he can get the opportunity to talk to one of them in the third round; if Gao Wen himself is in If the chain falls in the first two rounds, then he should just keep his mouth shut.
This time in the Magic City, Tim and Gawain's fortunes were average:
In the doubles arena, not to mention facing the Australian Open champion in the first round, and facing the top seeds Bryan Brothers in the second round, it is an extremely dangerous fortune for everyone.
The same is true in the singles arena.
Tim's opponent in the first round was Czech player Lukas-Rosol. This player became famous for his shocking upset in the second round of Wimbledon in 2012, knocking out Nadal. There is no outstanding performance in the singles arena, but he still has a place in the professional tour.
If he defeats Rosol, Tim will challenge top seed Djokovic in the second round.
Gao Wen plays as a seeded player for the first time. The opponents in the first two rounds are relatively not that strong overall, but in the third round, he may encounter the second seed Nadal——
This is also a repeat of the quarterfinals of last week’s Imperial Capital Open.
In fact, Nadal, who has just returned from injury, is far from his best. He needs to adjust to his best through more games. After defeating Gao Wen last week to advance to the semi-finals, Nadal lost for the first time in his career. Berdych, the latter has indeed reached his peak this year. His solid basic skills and balance on both offense and defense make him very competitive.
Therefore, if Nadal and Gauvin meet again, the outcome will still be full of suspense.
For others, facing Nadal for the second consecutive week is undoubtedly a very, very bad draw, but for Gauvin, it is an inspiration:
He is eager to face Nadal again, and he is also eager to challenge Nadal again and compete with the masters. He has endless fun.
Therefore, Gawain is indeed very motivated.
After the doubles match, Gao Wen and Tim returned to the training ground. The two doubles partners became each other's training partners and had a training match to prepare for the upcoming singles match.
At this time, Gawain has temporarily put aside the off-field turmoil and devoted himself to training wholeheartedly;
Over there, the first round singles showdown of "Kogkinakis VS Fey Lopez" has begun——
The competition was more intense than imagined.
Kogkinakis seemed to be stimulated and vented all his anger and embarrassment in the game. In the first set, both sides broke the other's serve twice and entered the tie-break; in the end, Kogkinakis saved four points. After counting, they won the first set with a small score of "14:12".
After winning the first set, Kogkinakis roared and hissed at Fey Lopez for a long time, and no one else knew what was going on.
However, ginger is still spicy.
Fei Lopez quickly gained a foothold and won the second and third sets with a score of "6:3" and "6:4", defeating Kogkinakis to advance to the second round.
So... the dream bubble of "Kogkinakis VS Gawain 2.0" was shattered before it could be blown up, leaving no suspense at all.
