Chapter 1211 Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division
The sun was shining brightly and I was sweating profusely. The jersey I had just changed quickly became soaked again in a short time, as if it had just been fished out of the water.
An hour of basic training, time flies by, it seems that just as I stepped onto the court to start training, sixty minutes disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Next, it’s time for training matches.
Thiem will go to the next court to join his training partner Agut for a two-hour training match; Dimitrov will stay here, waiting for Monfils to conduct their own training match.
As for Gao Wen, he will also go to another training ground nearby to join Wawrinka. A two-hour high-intensity training match is waiting for him.
All of these are scheduled and arranged in advance. From the venue to the time to the partner, we discuss and arrange in advance, and everything goes according to plan.
"call."
Dimitrov poured the entire bottle of mineral water down his throat in one breath, exhaled a long breath, wiped the sweat randomly, and turned to look at Gawain.
"How is it, how do you feel? Can the media still cope with it?"
Upon hearing these words, Tim also turned his head, with a trace of concern in his eyes——
The pre-match press conference was scheduled after the training match, but now, reporters could no longer hold back their excitement and appeared at the training ground one after another.
The media surrounded them on three levels, inside and outside. They didn't ask any questions, they just took pictures, but their scorching eyes almost ignited the air.
There is no need to wait for the press conference. You can imagine with your knees that these reporters must be too excited to sleep because of the "battle for the second place in the world". Everyone is looking forward to the meeting between Gawain and Federer again.
, is likely to become a confrontation that subverts an era.
Previously, during the "Sunshine Double Crown", reporters did not believe that Gauvin could reach the top of Indian Wells and Miami consecutively, so the focus has always been around "Gavin VS Djokovic", and they are eagerly looking forward to the Australian Open.
A repeat of the final could give the tennis market a shot in the arm.
Now, "Gawain kills Djokovic three times" has become a thing of the past. After the lottery came out, no reporter lamented that Gawain and Djokovic were in different areas. On the contrary, everyone was excited about the four-way match between Gawain and Federer.
A forced encounter, this historic encounter is likely to go down in history.
The reason is very simple:
In the era of the four giants in tennis, everything originated from Federer. Although Djokovic is now number one in the world, Federer's symbolic significance is still irreplaceable.
If Gao Wen can really defeat Federer to overturn the ten-year pattern in which the top two in the world have always been firmly dominated by the Big Four, then it can indeed be considered a change of era——
Of course, this does not mean the end of the era of the Big Four, but that after Djokovic and Murray, the "era of the Big Four" has become more complicated.
Maybe Gao Wen can become a new giant like Djokovic and Murray and create an era, but maybe not.
Maybe, Federer and Nadal may just sink, and the "era of giants" will be completely changed, maybe not.
Maybe Gawain became famous briefly and then disappeared in the blink of an eye, just like Corea, Janowitz, Gaudio and others. Maybe not.
Journalists, do you care?
Of course I don't care.
That is the distant future. Journalists don’t need to think too far ahead. They just need to grasp the moment, seize the hot spots, and concoct one breaking point after another. This is enough.
Therefore, reporters will not let Gawain go easily, it is absolutely impossible.
Gawain lightly shrugged, with a relaxed expression on his face, "They have the freedom to ask questions, and I have the freedom to refuse to answer."
Tim looked serious, "Is this still possible?"
At first glance, you can tell that he is a model child who "answers all questions". Maybe reporters don't like such model children, but they obviously won't embarrass him.
Dimitrov chuckled, "Of course, you can tell them directly that I refuse to answer this question, and reporters can't pinch you by the neck and force you to answer. However, there are skills in refusal. Gawain is Gao Wen.
Wen, we good children should not study so easily."
Gawain looked at Dimitrov with a smile on his face, "Yeah, yeah, Mr. No Comments is right, everything you said is right."
Dimitrov: His head is full of black lines.
Previously, when the relationship between Dimitrov and Sharapova was first exposed, reporters were everywhere and gossiped about their relationship all the time.
Dimitrov was really helpless, and later "no comment" became his mantra for a time, and he would occasionally answer some game questions this way.
That's why Gawain made the joke just now.
Dimitrov himself couldn't hold it back and raised the corners of his mouth, "But you can't just give them nothing, right? They won't give up."
Gawain knew this clearly, "But the key is, if I give them the answer, will they give up?"
Dimitrov, "Uh..."
There was a smile in Gao Wen's eyes, "No matter what the answer is, they will not be satisfied, even if I lose the first game; until Roger and I meet, any response will continue to fan the flames.
Adding oil and vinegar to the soil is just the beginning."
As a "former" reporter, Gao Wen saw this clearly——
In fact, this is not a logic question, but a mathematics question.
Let's make an assumption that Gauvin and Federer did meet in the semi-finals as highly anticipated, and then Federer won and won the final.
So, how will the ranking points change?
Federer has improved his performance by one level compared to last year's runner-up. He will replace last year's runner-up's 600 points with 1,000 points from this year's champion, which is an increase of 400 points.
Gao Wen, who did not participate last year, is a semi-finalist this year, so his points increased by 360 points.
This also means that the point difference between Federer and Gauvin has widened from the original 215 points to 255 points.
Competition continues, from Madrid to Rome to Paris...
Therefore, Monte Carlo is just the beginning. The same topics and the same competition will continue in a cycle.
As Gawain said, this is a mathematical problem, and any ordinary person with basic skills of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division can calculate such a situation.
Can’t the reporters see that?
No, they saw it.
It's just that they don't care.
The topic will be hyped up again and again, endlessly.
This also means -
Whether Gawain responds or doesn't respond, this matter will not change according to his will.
So, why can't Gawain stick to himself?
"No, strictly speaking, it's not just Monte Carlo. They will work tirelessly over and over again throughout the entire clay court season."
"If I win and become No. 2 in the world, then I will have to face the counterattacks of Roger and Rafa, and I will continue to attack Novak; if I lose, unless I fall out of the top ten in the world, they will
Definitely kept asking me if I was completely overwhelmed because of the stress.”
"To put it simply, as long as they are willing, such topics can be updated week after week, day after day, along with the winning and losing of each round of the game, endlessly, endlessly."
"Gregor, they won't be satisfied, don't you understand?"
