"Obviously, this is my first time coming to Wimbledon, and I don't know what it was like in previous years, so for me, there is no comparison and no need to adjust, because everything is brand new and I have no way to be sure.
Will Wimbledon welcome new recruits to compete this year with special treatment?"
"Sorry, I don't want to think that the whole universe revolves around me."
A casual joke was an invisible response to the previous attacks. There is no need to think that the whole world is trying to hurt me.
In an instant, rustling laughter surged in the air.
However, Gawain didn't seem to be aware of it at all, and continued to speak calmly, so that reporters who were attacked by complaints could not interrupt rashly——
Otherwise, wouldn’t this be just a case of hitting the gun? Isn’t it because you think you don’t play enough?
So, even if he was angry or aggrieved, what could he do? He could only stare at Gawain fiercely and attack with his eyes.
"So, whether it is high temperature or low temperature, I need to adapt from scratch. Temperature is not a problem, at least I hope it is not a problem."
"At Melbourne Park at the beginning of the year, the heat there was famous. The only thing I can hope for now is that Wimbledon won't be so terrible."
Haha, that joking and joking tone successfully made the scene filled with low laughter again. At this time, no one even paid attention to the injured reporter.
"Of course, Melbourne Park is slightly different from Wimbledon."
"It is difficult to score simply by serving in Melbourne Park. It often requires baseline maneuvers to determine the outcome. There are more long rounds and the pressure of high temperatures will be more obvious; but at Wimbledon, every point must be faster.
Some are shorter, and temperature plays a smaller role."
"At least, that's what I expected."
Gawain raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender with a grimace. The meaning of ridicule was obvious, and he successfully won a low laugh.
"As for the next round of competition, I am looking forward to it and will keep looking forward to it."
According to the division, Gao Wen's second-round opponent will soon be between Serbian player Krajinovic and French veteran Mahu.
This is a very, very interesting counterpoint.
Krajinovic, needless to say, this young player born in 1992 still struggled with his performance after returning from injury and was still looking for touch. At the beginning of the year in Doha, because of Djokovic, Krajinovic
I also had an encounter with Gawain, but it was not a good memory.
Mahut was born in 1982. Although he won the Wimbledon Junior Singles Championship in 2000, his performance has been mediocre since he entered the professional arena. So far, his best record in a Grand Slam is only the third round, and he has never broken into it.
The second week, including Wimbledon, is no exception.
In fact, since turning professional in 2000, Mahut has only won five games at Wimbledon in the past fourteen years. His best result was the third round in 2006, which was also the only time he reached the third round.
Experience, most of the time, he couldn't even get past the first round.
However, Mahu is still an interesting existence. He has left his own mark in the history of Wimbledon——
In the first round of Wimbledon in 2010, John Isner and Nicolas Mahut played the longest match in tennis history.
This first-round showdown lasted for three days, lasting 11 hours and five minutes, and a total of 183 rounds.
In the end, Isner defeated Mahu in a long game with scores of "6:4", "3:6", "6:7(7)", "7:6(3)", and "70:68"
.
After the game, Isner and Mahut did not leave the stadium immediately. The All England Club held a small special commemorative ceremony for them at the scene.
Throughout the game, both players played to the extreme, breaking many historical tennis records including the longest match, the most games, the most ACEs in a single game, and the most winning points in a single game. Among them, the winner
Isner has 112 aces and 246 winners.
recorded in history!
Just looking at Mahu's career record, he was eliminated in the first round of Wimbledon for three consecutive years in 2009, 2010, and 2011, and the same was true last year; but among them, the first round exit in 2010 was epic, and later he was eliminated for a long time.
After the tie-breaker format was abolished, it was destined that no one would be able to surpass it.
In fact, we can see Mahu's characteristics from this game. He is good at serving and netting. He is indeed a player suitable for playing on grass. But unfortunately, his forehand and backhand lack characteristics and his offensive tactics are not rich enough.
The more comprehensive and increasingly fierce the singles competition is, the harder it will be to break through.
Later, as he grew older, Mahu also realized that it was difficult for him to find a breakthrough in the singles arena. In order to continue his career, he slowly moved to the doubles arena. His characteristics were fully utilized, his shortcomings were made up for, and he gradually shined. He won the four Grand Slams.
He reached the finals of all doubles events and won the French Open, Wimbledon and US Open titles, becoming the world's No. 1 and opening up a new world.
It can be seen that Mahu is also a wonderful person, maybe not a strong player, but he is also impactful in the singles arena, especially at Wimbledon.
Whether Krajinovic or Mahu, judging from their state, it should be difficult to stop Gao Wen's progress, at least after the lottery was drawn, people generally thought so; but after the first round, Gao Wen
Wen also fought hard for five games against Istomin, and the situation was a bit subtle.
Now look back at Krajinovic and Mahu. For Gawain, who has only played three grass-court games in his career, they are both very dangerous time bombs. An upset may not be impossible. So, after the game
At the press conference, the focus immediately boiled.
However, the game between Krajinovic and Mahu has not yet started, and the winner has not been determined, so Gao Wen's opponent in the next round remains undecided.
As far as the media is concerned, no matter who the opponent is, the topic can be full of topics; but obviously, Krajinovic, who is also a new generation, is more worth looking forward to:
From the age of birth in 1992 to the nationality of Serbia, it is a treasure at first glance. If you dig it casually, you can create explosive points.
"For me, I have never met Philip, nor have I met Nicholas. What follows is an encounter, but such an encounter occurs at Wimbledon, which makes it particularly dangerous."
"On the grass, their serve is a weapon. Maybe before you have time to react, the tennis ball has whizzed past you. As you can imagine, it's not good news for me."
"I also hope that my serve can whizz by like a bomber and score cleanly, but obviously, I can't, so I need to be ready, otherwise, no matter where the next game is scheduled, the court may be bombed.
It’s a complete mess, we don’t want to see such a scene, right?”
It is vivid and vivid, and the metaphors that can be picked up at hand immediately have a sense of picture in the mind. When I picture the potholes on the Wimbledon lawn, my smile cannot help but start to surge. The entire press conference is cheerful, which is what people expected.
