People think that competitive sports is a physical competition, but in fact, most competitive sports are a collision between the brain and the body.
Tennis, especially—
It doesn't work if your brain is empty and you don't think about anything, but it doesn't work if your brain is full and you are overloaded with thoughts.
The most important thing is to have a sense of proportion and balance, and skillfully find the spark of perfect collision between the brain and the body between calculation and gaming.
At the match point, for Istomin, he just thought too much; for Gawain, it was a wake-up call, but he regained his focus, and accurately found the balance point in the next game, and then reversed the situation of the game, and finally Only then was he able to formulate a strategy to break the balance in the seventh game of the fourth set.
Of course, there is no need to disclose all the latter details, otherwise it would not be good news for Gawain if they were thoroughly studied by his opponents.
"Shh!"
"Don't let Peter know, otherwise he should be very disappointed. The disciple who had high hopes turned out to be a grass idiot. That is too unfriendly."
——Haha, laughter burst out again, filling the entire press conference room.
"We lost to Anderson at Queen's Club, which was a very precious game. Even though we lost the game, everything happened so fast."
"We played two tiebreaks, but the game should have been less than 90 minutes. God, this is a completely different world from the clay court."
Phew, that sarcastic tone caused low laughter again.
"After the game, I came to Wimbledon to train. I was actually digesting and reviewing the game and trying to find the rhythm of the grass game."
"Luckily, I found it."
"I think this is one of the charms of tennis. It allows you to make mistakes, and it also allows you to think. Even after making a mistake, there is still a chance to recover."
"I'm very, very lucky that I'm not a sprinter. Otherwise, if I make one mistake, the whole race would have gone away. God, the pressure is really unimaginable."
At the end, there was still the iconic complaint. The reporters on the scene exchanged glances. There was a relaxed atmosphere in the air, but it quickly turned negative.
"Gaowen, I would like to ask, before Wimbledon, you attended the movie premiere, contacted the entertainment industry, and appeared in a lot of gossip news, just like David Beckham back then. These interference factors Did it lead to your lack of preparation, which in turn affected your performance?"
"In addition, there is another question. In today's game, Jennifer Lawrence also appeared in the stands. Do you think this is a positive or negative influence? Will she become the goddess of victory for you to turn the game around? Will your love life become the goddess of victory? The wild card at Wimbledon this year?”
...buzz buzz.
The entire press conference room was filled with a low pressure, and visions and emotions collided. Although no one spoke, the surge could still be felt.
Fellow reporter: Warriors!
After experiencing Gawain's thunderous methods, the topic of scandal has become a taboo, and no one mentioned it at the pre-match press conference at Wimbledon——
No one wishes to anger Gawain.
Unexpectedly, after the first round of the competition, there would be warriors swimming upstream and detonating bombs. In an instant, all the reporters held their breaths.
But looking back, The Sun.
No wonder!
The reporters secretly looked at Gawain one by one. They had to do their best to suppress the excitement and excitement of watching the good show, but their bright eyes were like a pack of jackals, which finally exposed their true nature.
The bustling crowd of eyes focused on Gawain.
However, they saw that Gawain was not panicked, nervous, or angry as expected. Instead, the corners of his mouth raised, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
The expression was clearly one of sharp excitement, and the reporters were a little confused:
what happened?
"Oh, thank you, thank you so much. I didn't expect that I could be compared with David. There is no doubt that this is an honor for me."
"So, am I a star now?"
Reporter: Hey, is the point misplaced?
As a result, the "Sun" reporter stood up directly, with a malicious look on his face, "So, for you, this is a good thing?"
The slight upward curve of the corner of Gao Wen's mouth remained the same, "Reporter, please think carefully. If off-field factors really interfere with my performance on the field, do you think I will admit it?"
reporter:……
"Are you too stupid, or do you think I'm too stupid? I think this matter deserves a careful discussion." Gao Wen looked at the reporter with bright eyes, his calm eyes were so deep, but he could detect a hint of The banter between cat and mouse is instantly chilling.
Obviously, the "Sun News" reporter did not expect Gao Wen's response. He was slightly stunned and subconsciously attacked, "So are you denying it?"
However, Gawain still did not get angry, but showed a serious expression, "It seems that my English level is not enough and my expression is not clear enough. I might as well do this, guess?"
The whole place was silent.
Including the "Sun" reporter, who looked obviously confused and was caught off guard.
Yu Jia knew that this was the moment when tensions were high and it was not the time to joke, but he really couldn't help it. It was so hard to hold back his laughter that his shoulders began to shake slightly.
Gawain looked at the reporter seriously, but was unable to wait for the next attack. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He shook his head slightly, and then responded in a serious tone, calmly and calmly. arrive.
"No, I don't see off-site press as a distraction, quite the opposite in fact, and I'm very grateful to Tom and David for inviting me to the premiere of the film, it was an honor."
"No, I don't think the scandal has affected my state and performance. Jennifer and I are just friends, and I very much welcome her to continue coming to watch games."
"However, I must clarify that my performance in the game has nothing to do with her attendance. I cannot blame an innocent spectator for my performance. Likewise, I cannot blame the Queen for possibly coming to watch me. I would just give up during the game and lie flat without making any effort and wait for the victory to fall from the sky and hit me on the head.”
Smile.
period.
Looking at Gao Wen's formulaic smile, the irony reached its peak at this moment. His eyes were still firmly locked on the reporter from "The Sun", and the subtext couldn't be clearer:
"No, the answer you want is given to you. Are you still expecting a different answer? They are all formulaic and clichéd. So, who is stupid?"
The most interesting part is that Gawain replies in a calm and robotic tone, which perfectly interprets "programmed" and is equivalent to the level of machine translation.
The "Sun" reporter opened his mouth and tried to attack and refute, but for a while, Gao Wen couldn't find any gaps in his clear and straightforward answer:
what to do?
puff.
After all, Yu Jia couldn't hold it back any longer, and burst into laughter. The more she thought about it, the funnier it became, and she almost couldn't help it, and burst out laughing.
However, before Yu Jia had time to laugh out loud, someone immediately raised their hands and asked questions, one after another, chasing and intercepting them, and the rhythm was as continuous as a wave.
