In a hurry, Gawain didn't think about it carefully. His first reaction was that he had misjudged the time, or that Tobias was joking -
The "training maniac" joke is already well known to everyone.
But Tobias' words interrupted Gawain's movements and cut off all possibilities. The sudden and huge impact made Gawain stunned.
Tobias seemed to be able to read the confusion in Gawain's eyes, and repeated it again.
"Yes, I was not wrong or joking, the wild card has been cancelled."
Fall vertically.
The high expectations hit the ground heavily, and the momentary emotional imbalance filled the tip of his tongue with intricate bitterness. The ridiculous impact made Gawain unable to react. He tried to open his mouth to ask twice, but he didn't know how to speak, so that
All the sounds are stuck in the throat.
After resurrecting his life, Gawain thought that he was open-minded and calm enough. He had even experienced things like resurrection from the dead once, let alone other things. He could not change his expression even if Mount Tai collapsed.
Have such confidence.
However, he suddenly discovered that this was not the case.
Reborn as a human being, he is still an ordinary person, an ordinary person who runs wildly with dreams in his arms, an ordinary person who can cry, laugh, and be afraid and nervous.
After realizing this, Gawain regained his composure.
After taking a deep breath, the corners of Gawain's mouth rose again.
"It seems that you are not playing a prank, so what is going on?"
The surprise and confusion were short-lived. Gawain soon found his usual calmness and calmness. This reminded Tobias that when Gawain faced the match point, the more critical the moment, the more he could stay calm.
A strong big heart exudes the temperament of a champion, always able to present the best version of himself.
Instead, Tobias felt a little guilty, "I'm sorry, it was my dereliction of duty. You have every right to be angry."
But Gawain did not rush to a conclusion, but patiently waited for the next chapter.
"Isner lost to Ivan Dodig in the first round in Montreal, and he lost to Murray in the third round in Cincinnati. Obviously his performance in the North American series was very bad, and he was very disappointed with himself.
I was not satisfied with my performance, so I temporarily applied for a wild card after losing in the first round.”
"After careful consideration, the host committee canceled your wild card, and then temporarily gave Isner a wild card."
Gawain:……
Objectively speaking, there are countless similar situations in the tour.
Isner is currently the fourteenth-ranked player in the world and the highest-ranked player in the United States. Simply put, he is a local darling. When he was not satisfied with his warm-up performance at the Masters, he temporarily applied to Winston-Salem.
For such a level of wild card, the tournament has no reason to refuse——
Both ticket sales and television broadcasts have huge benefits.
When such a situation occurs, event organizers often cannot disqualify qualifying players because they have passed two rounds of qualifying tests to enter the main competition and have earned their qualifications with their performance on the field, unless they withdraw due to injury.
Otherwise, the organizing committee has no right to disqualify them.
Naturally, the only thing that can be replaced is the wild card qualification.
Originally, the wild cards were awarded by the organizing committee after weighing them, and they also have the right to take them back.
Well, this is not Tobias's fault at all. "Isner VS Gawain", there is really no suspense about how Winston-Salem should choose, even if Tobias mobilizes all his connections, it will be useless.
Gawain was even more curious, "Where are the other two wild cards?"
There are three wild card seats for the Gold Game. Isner's temporary application for a wild card was approved, but among the three seats, why was Gawain eliminated?
Tobias burst into laughter. Even in a chaotic situation, Gawain still grasped the key point.
"Sock, Querrey."
Sam Querrey has been the number one men's singles player in the United States for the past three years. However, due to injuries, he fell out of the top 20 in the world last year. Now that he is back from injury, his performance is still struggling.
Jack-Sock, a rookie who entered professional tennis in 2011, has experienced a period of explosive growth this year. His world ranking has soared from outside the 100th place at the beginning of the year to the top 50. He is currently the third male tennis player in the United States.
Single, very hopeful to achieve great results in the US Open.
One is a Mesozoic, one is a rookie, and most importantly, both are Americans.
In such a horizontal comparison, Gao Wen's three challenge championship trophies appear dim.
No wonder.
If Gowan was the tournament director in Winston-Salem, he would also cancel the wild card of the unknown guy from another country and forward it to the number one men's singles player in his country.
After hearing the answer, Gawain truly relaxed, "This is obviously not your problem."
But this sentence made Tobias even more uncomfortable.
He knows that logically speaking, there is not much he can do, but as a top agent, he cannot lower his standards for himself. It is precisely because of the difficulties that he needs to work harder for Gao Wen.
, and he didn’t think it was impossible.
Tobias was disappointed with himself.
Seeing Gawain regaining his composure in front of him, Tobias secretly clenched his fists and cheered up more, but did not say anything more about his ambitions. Practical actions were more important than words.
"Gawain, you won't be discouraged like this, right?" Tobias was a little worried.
Gawain laughed happily, "Haha, do I look like someone who gives up so easily? Since they have chosen someone else, they have to make them regret it."
Just like when reporters used little Zverev to hype up the news, Gao Wen's real target was actually reporters compared to little Zverev.
Because he knows that in the eyes of reporters, he is just a tool used to anger Zverev. Even after winning the championship, reporters still surrounded Zverev, which further proves this point.
I'm afraid no reporter could have predicted that in just three weeks, Gao Wen's world ranking would already be in the same range as Zverev.
Tobias could detect the confidence revealed in Gawain's words, and he was a little worried and a little curious.
"Now that the schedule is disrupted, the training plan needs to be temporarily modified and adjusted. What are you going to do?"
In fact, looking at it from another perspective, Gao Wen has experienced high-intensity competition for three consecutive weeks and won fifteen games in a row. If he can use a longer time to digest and strengthen, and then strengthen through training, he may be able to usher in an explosive growth.
, not playing in Winston-Salem is not necessarily a bad thing.
The problem is that if they had a coaching team now, things would be simple, but the reality is that they don't.
Gawain had regained his composure, no need to rush to the airport, and even his steps and shoulders were relaxed.
"Since there is no competition, let's get into training."
"Just in time, through the training in the next half month, let's see if we can bring some surprises when we step onto the US Open court."
