"...So, Gawain, how does it feel to experience Wimbledon's unique Sunday off and Super Monday for the first time in your career?"
Beckham and Ozil didn't stay too long. They communicated for a very brief moment and then left, leaving time for Gao Wen.
As professional players, they all know the importance of resuming training after the game. If it were them, they would not want the entire process to be disturbed or even interrupted.
Therefore, after a brief greeting, Beckham said that he would come to watch the next game; Ozil originally had no plans, but now he is eager to try——
Anyway, the season is over.
In the British domestic competition, Arsenal successfully defended the FA Cup by defeating Aston Villa and won the championship for a record twelfth time; in the Champions League, Arsenal lost to Monaco and was eliminated in the quarterfinals early; along with the Premier League competition
has come to an end and the players have all entered the offseason.
The season just ended last week, and we are now on vacation. As for offseason training, there is no rush.
Listening to Beckham describing the situation of the potential quarter-finals, if it is "Gawain VS Murray", the royal family is very likely to appear at the All England Club. Ozil can't help but get excited and talk about the grand occasion.
The two of them turned around and left, talking and laughing all the way.
Gawain?
Gao Wen regained his attention, completed the recovery training step by step, and watched the battle between Murray and Karlovic on the big screen.
Then, Gawain appeared in the press conference room, waiting for the storm to come.
From all aspects, with this game as the center of the circle, different topics can be detected in all directions, and reporters will definitely not miss it.
But I didn't expect that the first question at the beginning would be so...gentle, like a gentle breeze.
As a result, Gawain was slightly startled, and as he scanned the entire audience, the smile in his eyes surged slightly.
"The first question is so friendly. Why do I have an ominous feeling? So, how crazy and scary is the storm that follows?"
hehe.
Low laughter filled the scene.
"If you are worried that the unexpected situation just now will happen again, please rest assured that I will be gentle to you."
One second, two seconds——
They were stunned because the reporters thought that Gawain was going to make fun of Kyrgios. The grievances between Gawain and Kyrgios were no secret, but they were worried that the organizing committee might forcibly interrupt the press conference to avoid chaos.
If it happens again, the gain will outweigh the loss.
On second thought, the reporters were shocked by the unfolding of the second half of the sentence. Before they had time to react, the laughter spread.
The corners of Gawain's mouth also slightly raised.
"Fresh."
Without pausing, Gawain gave the answer.
"Because of the existence of rest days, the entire training rhythm and state adjustments need to be adapted."
"Pete said he has a little bit of experience here that can help; and having back-to-back appearances in Indian Wells and Miami also helps a little bit."
"So, I'm trying to adapt."
Sampras? A little experience?
Obviously, this is a joke.
It can be seen from the relaxed expressions on the reporters' faces that these easy-to-use little humors and relaxed rhythms really made the press conference immersed in a cheerful atmosphere, so that Gao Wen could be temporarily forgotten.
The combat power easily kills Kyrgios.
"When I arrived at the All England Club today, my first thought was, wow, there are so many people."
Ha ha!
Finally, one reporter couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter. Seeing the innocent expression on Gawain's face, his mood became happy.
Gawain shrugged.
"I was serious."
"If I were a fan, I would not miss Super Monday. Outside of Center Court, you can find exciting games in almost every stadium."
"Whether it's fans or players, people who are still at the All England Club seem to be flocking out. I saw a lot of players I met for the first time in the gym corridor. If it weren't for my fitness coach pulling me to warm up, I would have
Might want to go up and say hello to everyone."
There is no politeness or falsehood, this is truly what Gawain said from the bottom of his heart.
Only those who have truly experienced Wimbledon can understand the difference of this century-old event. It’s not that the other three Grand Slams are inferior to Wimbledon, but that the All England Club’s own colors are particularly strong and bright, and those traditions
The audience and atmosphere are all different.
As a reporter, Gao Wen can understand and accept the inevitable changes due to the commercialization process, and every event is trying to survive in the fierce competition.
But at the same time, we have to admit that the end of the commercialization process is assembly line operations. The differences between different events are getting smaller and smaller. Even if you travel around the world and go to different cities to compete, you are immersed in the events.
, but gradually you can’t feel these differences.
It is precisely because of this that Wimbledon, which has withstood the test and insisted on itself all the way, even though it only allows white jerseys, the colors of the event are extremely strong, and it is easy to leave a deep impression. As long as you participate in it in person, it is difficult not to
I love this century-old event.
No wonder, countless players worship Wimbledon as a holy place.
Here, Gawain shares his true feelings in an elegant and generous manner.
On that side, the reporter grasped the key points and immediately exploited every opportunity.
"...Gawain, regarding the arrangement of the stadium and schedule, Wozniacki said in an interview that there are two men's games arranged at the Central Court, but only one women's game. For women players, this is obviously a problem.
unfair."
"What do you think about this?"
The attack is coming.
Gawain did not answer in a hurry, but reached behind his back, grabbed the invisible arrow, and with a muffled groan, he pulled out the arrow.
No words are needed, an action is enough:
So, the storm has already arrived?
There is no doubt that court arrangement is a problem, and the four Grand Slams are no exception. It causes a lot of controversy almost every year. Almost every player has experienced it, and Gao Wen has also experienced it at Melbourne Park and Roland Garros.
But at Wimbledon, especially on Super Monday, such controversy is particularly serious.
Imagine that there are eight men's singles and eight women's singles, all of which are ranked among the top ten or twenty in the world. They are all competitions for the top eight. Each of them is an important match worth watching. So, who should enter?
What about Center Court? Such controversy is inevitable.
Per year!
Literally, every year, the same topics and the same situations are replayed.
Moreover, reporters also go to the trouble of setting fires every time. It is not a big deal to watch the excitement. They light fires everywhere. They may be targeted if they enter the center court, and they may also be targeted if they do not enter the center court. No one is exempt.
Gawain, naturally the same is true.
No, this is only the second question. The reporters grabbed a clue and immediately raised the question.
