Gawain seemed to be able to sense the overwhelming anger overflowing from Tobias, and called out in time, causing both Tobias and Sampras to look over.
"We all know that the only way for competitive sports to win respect is through performance on the court, so let's leave tennis matters to be resolved on the court."
Gawain raised his eyebrows slightly, his smile twinkling.
"I'm looking forward to tomorrow's game more and more."
Tobias could see the sincerity in Gawain's eyes. It was not anger, sadness or grievance, but a burning high spirit of fighting. He knew that Gawain was serious.
"What do you think, Pete, let's go to the practice field now? The scheduled practice time is coming soon, right?"
Gawain patted Tobias on the shoulder, then bumped into Sampras' shoulder, and stepped forward with a smile on his face, light but firm.
Sampras and Tobias stood side by side, staring at Gawain's tall back, and then Sampras couldn't help but show his admiration.
"When I was eighteen years old, I definitely didn't have such a big heart and wisdom. Maybe, tomorrow's game is indeed worth looking forward to."
"Well, I think so too."
The two friends said nothing more and walked forward one after the other. The farce in the press conference room seemed to be no longer important.
The U.S. Tennis Open, the last Grand Slam in 2014, finally kicked off.
The first day of competition was uneventful. All the high-ranking seeded players who were the favorites to win the championship passed smoothly. Only one minor upset appeared in the men's singles field:
The Australian genius Kyrgios, hailed as a rare encounter in twenty years, defeated the 21st seed Youzhny in four sets and advanced to the second round. His strong performance was eye-catching.
Apart from this, the other matches were all uneventful. There were no upsets worth mentioning in the men's singles and women's singles. For the Chinese Legion, it is undoubtedly good news for Peng Shuai and Zheng Saisai to advance to the second round together.
In the bustling place, the sun rises and the moon sets, and the second competition day slowly begins again.
When Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun arrived at Arthur Ashe Stadium, they were in front of such a magnificent building at close range. They deeply felt the insignificance of human beings and sighed involuntarily from deep in their hearts.
"When I watched it on TV, I couldn't feel it at all."
Jiang Yanyun raised his head, and his neck was about to break before he could see the edge of the top of the stadium. People coming and going in front of and behind him were like ants moving in front of the building. The contrast between grandeur and smallness was very intuitive.
It is difficult to describe what the "twenty-three thousand" audience feels like just by imagining it in your mind. Only by being there can you feel the turbulence of the ocean.
Jiang Yanyun is very familiar with Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Sampras's last Grand Slam trip in his career was on this court where he defeated his old rival Agassi to win the championship; the same was true for Agassi, who lost the third round on this court in 2006 and then
He officially announced his retirement, ending his brilliant career.
In the past, Jiang Yanyun had seen this stadium countless times and left behind countless precious memories, but he never thought that he would be able to appear on this stadium one day.
Jiang Yanyun couldn't help but become excited as his heart surged.
At this time, Arthur Ashe's first game has ended. The beautiful eighth-seeded Serbian player Ivanovic successfully defeated his opponent and advanced. Those spectators who bought single-game tickets were leaving the stadium, and those who bought Arthur Ashe's tickets were leaving.
-Ashe Stadium package and the entire US Open event package, etc. Spectators can choose whether to stay to watch the second game.
Some people left, because at Louis Armstrong Stadium, American player Querrey's game was said to be very exciting. Now it has entered the third set. The score in the first two sets was "1:1", and Isner
The game looked like an easy win, and the crowd left.
Some people have just arrived at the scene. They came specifically to watch Isner crush his opponents and advance. After all, Isner is the biggest hope for the American men's singles this year. They will be cheering for Isner at the scene.
.
Gurgling.
Gurgling.
The air was boiling. Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun followed the crowd into the stadium. Only when they were standing in the stands could they feel the magnificence and enormity of the entire space. When they raised their heads, it seemed as if the sky was getting farther and farther away; and looking around, they saw dense
The seat rushed towards me, making me dizzy.
"Wow……"
Now Jiang Yanyun finally understands why the commentator always emphasizes that playing at Arthur Ashe Stadium is both a pleasure and a challenge.
Although he likes tennis very much, except for Gao Wen's regional competition, Jiang Yanyun has never really watched a game live. Unexpectedly, the first time was at Arthur Ashe Stadium, and it felt a bit strange.
In this box, Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun, accompanied by Tobias, went to the players' box——
Both participating players have their own player boxes, ensuring that their families and coaching staff can go to watch the game without buying tickets.
In that room, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao's attention was slightly distracted.
Today's schedule is very intensive.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the games of Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang started at the same time; while Gao Wen's game was in the second game of Arthur Ashe, which means when the game starts depends on the previous game of Ivanovi
When does the odd game end?
As for CCTV, in fact, they really, really want to broadcast Gao Wen's game.
This is not a difficult decision. In any case, this is the first time a Chinese male player has played on the center court of the four Grand Slams. Even if Gao Wen jumped out of the cracks in the rocks, it is still worth broadcasting.
However, scheduling is a bit tricky. TV stations have their own rules and regulations for broadcasting large-scale events, and they cannot disrupt the overall plan around one game.
Gao Wen's game is very important, but the game between Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang is equally important.
After discussion, the TV station decided to broadcast Zhang Shuai's game first. After the game is over, if Gao Wen's game starts, then the signal of the Central Court will be switched; but if not, the TV station will directly switch to the signal of Wang Qiang's game, and once it is broadcast
We have to wait until the end of the game——
In any case, Wang Qiang is also a Chinese player. There is no reason to cut off his own players' games at the beginning of the broadcast. This is not in line with broadcast management.
Moreover, compared to the unknown Gao Wen, the audience should still be more willing to see Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang who have hope of victory. No one can refuse "victory".
As a result, regrettable things still happened.
Zhang Shuai regretted losing the game in two sets, but Ivanovic's game was not over yet; so they started broadcasting Wang Qiang's game on Court No. 12, but the game was still going on here, and Ivanovic won again.
Advance, and then the center court has entered the second game.
Now, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao have no choice but to hope that Wang Qiang will defeat their opponent as soon as possible, and then they can cut the signal to Arthur Ashe Stadium.
No matter whether he wins or loses, the moment when Gawain steps onto Arthur Ashe Stadium is a legendary moment when history is born, and no one wants to miss it.
