"Have you set any goals for the upcoming Grand Slam tournament?"
Zhan Jun was slightly excited, but after all he couldn't hold back his excitement and asked.
They have never watched any of Gao Wen's games, and even the information is pitiful. It is difficult to prove anything with just three challenge championship titles, although they have defeated Zverev Jr. during the fifteen-game winning streak.
Rising star, but even little Zverev’s world ranking is outside 150, so it’s impossible to judge what Gawain’s real strength is.
In other words, it is most appropriate not to hold out hope for the Grand Slam.
But Zhan Jun couldn't help but ask, wanting to see Gao Wen's posture.
As soon as the words came out, Zhan Jun regretted it. What else could Gao Wen answer? It was nothing more than trying his best to attack his opponent. It was hard to say anything else.
Then Zhan Jun unexpectedly discovered that the corners of Gao Wen's mouth raised lightly, and his dark eyes reflected the sunlight, blooming with a burst of vitality in an instant.
"Why set goals? Why not start by winning the next game."
Full of confidence! Full of energy!
Zhan Jun and Hu Litao exchanged glances. Both of them realized each other's surprise and surprise, and then joy and gratifying anticipation began to surge faintly.
The words themselves are actually modest and restrained, but one can deeply feel a sense of determination in the expression and demeanor. Not setting goals is not because of lack of confidence, on the contrary, it is precisely because of firm confidence that one is down-to-earth. Not only
Fighting for a game, but moving forward step by step, but refusing to set limits for the ultimate goal.
It is more convincing and more exciting than those young people who shout "declaration to win the championship" when they come up. The belief exuded from the inside out is neither arrogant nor impetuous. I can't help but look forward to him on the court.
Performance.
The interview is over.
In just fifteen minutes, I originally planned to conduct a basic interview, but the actual results were far beyond imagination.
When leaving the training ground, Zhan Jun looked back and found Gao Wen walking towards Tim. When he said something, Tim showed a shy smile. The two young people started laughing and joking, and then walked side by side to the bottom line.
Ready to continue training.
The morning sun shines down, and the breath of youth hits your face.
Neither Zhan Jun nor Hu Litao spoke, and the two professionals fell into silence.
To be honest, Gao Wen is the "Monkey King" who suddenly popped up yesterday. Their understanding is basically zero, and they should forget about it after completing their homework. There is no need to make a fuss; but a short meeting made the two professionals
It is not an easy task to leave a deep impression on everyone.
Although they remind themselves time and time again not to have too high expectations, the desire deep in their hearts is always ready to move.
"Teacher Hu, do you think he is blindly confident as a young man?"
Zhan Jun was a little unsure and asked hesitantly.
Hu Litao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Brother Jun, if you can't even see it, how can I?"
After a pause, Hu Litao added.
"Whether it's confidence or pride, young people always have to have a little bit of energy. Look at Sister Na's domineering attitude, she believed she could win a Grand Slam, and she finally got it."
"If you don't believe in yourself, it will be almost impossible to achieve a breakthrough in the Grand Slam arena, and the men's tennis world still needs to face the blockade of the Big Four."
"So, let's watch the game."
Zhan Jun didn't say anything more. He took a long breath and regained his smile, "I hope that both Zhang Ze and Wu Di can pass the third round of challenges, so that we can form a group advantage and we are not alone on the field."
If you work hard, it may help you achieve good results."
Hu Litao repeatedly said yes.
However, the ideal is plump, but the reality is skinny.
When all the day's events were over and the decisive battle of the third round of qualifying came to an end, the Chinese Legion had mixed feelings:
All three female players successfully passed the final round and advanced to the main draw, which once again highlighted the collective advantage of female tennis players, and young people have also fully emerged.
However, the two men's players both lost, fell in the final round of qualifying, and were once again blocked from the main draw of the Grand Slam.
So... Gao Wen became the only one in the lottery to play with the five-star red flag.
In the previous two Australian Opens, Wu Di and Zhang Ze attended the main draw alone and were eliminated in the first round. This is still the case for the third time.
I had a hunch that something was slightly wrong.
Zhan Jun and Hu Litao looked at each other, but they could only sigh.
"I hope Gawain will be surprised."
"Let's take a look at the draw first. Maybe the draw is good and we can draw unseeded players."
"3/4 is pretty good, there should be more opportunities."
Fortune telling is a metaphysics.
This is true for everyone, but even more so for qualifiers and wildcard players.
In the Grand Slam tournament, there are a total of 128 draws, including 32 seeds, who compete in a total of seven rounds to determine the final champion.
Naturally, in the first round, only thirty-two players will face off against seeded players, and the other sixty-four unseeded players will compete against each other. If you are lucky, the qualifying and wild card players may face off against non-seeded players.
For seeded players, the chance of breakthrough can be greatly increased.
For example, when Li Na reached the French Open in 2011, she suffered a series of upsets. On her way to promotion, she did not face any seeded players in the first three rounds.
It was not until the beginning of the fourth round that we successively encountered high-ranking seeded players, Petra Kvitova, Victoria Azarenka, and Maria Sharapova. However,
The performance of these three players on clay has always been mediocre and lacks competitiveness.
Overall, Li Na's performance was still strong all the way, and she finally won the championship. This is her luck——
Of course, no matter how good your fortune is, you still need to advance and win the games one by one. Strength and performance are still the guarantee of victory, otherwise you may become the target of being upset if you are not careful.
If possible, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao also hope that Gao Wen's luck will be better to create more possibilities for the first round.
This year's US Open draw ceremony has been held, but there are still some blanks that have not been filled in, such as "qualifying players" and "wild card players".
These blanks will be drawn after all qualifying rounds are over, and then filled in one by one.
A quick glance at the draw will reveal which divisions are worth looking forward to, which divisions may be upset, and which divisions may be exciting.
After Nadal retired due to injury, there were some changes in the seeding rankings, with Djokovic, Federer, Wawrinka and David Ferrer becoming the top four seeds.
According to the rankings, top seed Djokovic enters the 1/4 zone, and second seed Federer enters the 4/4 zone.
Then, according to the draw, third seed Wawrinka entered the 2/4 area, and fourth seed Ferrer entered the 3/4 area.
