In the second round, although Gao Wen teamed up with Borelli to create a classic duel and once again created history, there was regret for Wang Dalei——
No one more could be there with him to witness this inspiring battle.
After the game, Wang Dalei used his own power to launch a call among the Chinese fans in New York, hoping that fans would arrive at the scene to cheer for Gao Wen, and also hoped that they could become a strong backing for Gao Wen to continue to climb the peak.
"We need to let him know that he is not fighting alone."
Then, Wang Dalei did it.
Although there are only twenty people, a small corner can easily light up Arthur Ashe Stadium, like a lighthouse in the vast sea, guiding the way forward. No words are better than words, conveyed with colors and actions.
Showing their determination to fight side by side, the huge Arthur Ashe Stadium became friendly and warm in an instant.
What's more, the Chinese fans at Arthur Ashe Stadium tonight are not just Wang Dalei's group. Dots of red can be seen scattered in different corners of the stadium. More and more fans are focusing their attention here.
For this young player who has repeatedly created miracles, many people came to the scene to support him.
But when they discovered Wang Dalei's five-star red flag, they all expressed regret and regret that they were not able to join in and truly coalesce into a force, especially when Australia's fanatical fans dominated the audience.
In terms of popularity and popularity of tennis, China cannot compete with Australia, and Australia also has a longer and deeper tennis heritage. Both men and women have Grand Slam championships in singles and doubles, and have a long history.
There are many Hall of Fame legends, so Australian fans can be seen in different tours around the world.
Moreover, they are still known for being crazy.
Unity, enthusiasm, publicity, noisy, and passionate, these are the labels of Australian fans. We can even see fans complaining about Australian fans being too noisy every year at the three Grand Slams other than the Australian Open, but they still go their own way.
Tonight is no exception.
A group of fans lined up neatly. Everyone took off their T-shirts, painted their faces into the iconic yellow and green of the Australian flag, and then wrote letters on their chests, one for each person, in series.
It read "Kyrgios! Up!" and everyone was wearing an exaggerated kangaroo hat. All they had to do was stand up and they could easily attract the attention of the audience.
"Up! Nick! Up!"
"Up! Nick! Up!"
The Australian fans were cheering hoarsely, suppressing the enthusiasm of the Chinese fans. Not only the players, but also the fans could feel the sparking tit-for-tat.
On the court, Gawain and Kyrgios had completed the pre-match friendly handshakes and photo sessions, and then completed the coin guessing under the guidance of the referee——
Kyrgios guessed correctly and chose to serve first.
Because the referee was right next to him, Kyrgios didn't say much. Instead, he pouted, raised his chin, and slowly scratched his throat with his right thumb, making a throat-cutting motion with his eyes flashing.
The light of ridicule, contempt and provocation seems to be able to smell the smell of blood.
Then.
hey-hey.
Kyrgios showed his neat white teeth to Gawain, grinned, and completed his mockery of Gawain with every movement and smile.
So, what did Gawain do?
The referee stood on Gawain's left side, so Gawain raised his right hand, touched his cheek, as if wiping sweat, raised his middle finger to Kyrgios, raised his chin slightly, and glanced at Kyrgios with disdain.
Kyrgios glanced at him and rubbed his nose with his middle finger, showing a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Kyrgios was instantly angered, "You!"
"Kyrgios!" the referee immediately scolded and issued a warning, "Don't think that I didn't see those actions that were against the spirit of sportsmanship. I am giving you a verbal warning now. Please pay attention to your words and deeds."
Kyrgios exploded with grievance on his face, "Sir, he provoked me, but you blame me instead of him? Are you sure this is not racial discrimination?"
The referee glared at Kyrgios, and then motioned Gawain up and down slowly, "If you continue to talk nonsense, I will report it to you for committing a bad act of racial discrimination and impose relevant penalties."
racism?
Does Kyrgios know for sure who his opponent is?
Look at Gawain’s harmless and bright smile, just like a representative of the top ten outstanding youths in the world, and then Kyrgios’s foul language is stuck in his throat:
Grass.
Then, Kyrgios couldn't hold back after all, took a step forward, and yelled at Gawain angrily.
"I will crush you to pieces."
After saying that, Kyrgios ignored the referee's clouded anger, turned around and strode towards the baseline.
The referee looked deeply at Kyrgios's back, then said nothing more, turned to look at Gawain, and politely gestured with his head, then turned and walked towards the referee's chair——
Although the referee cannot favor the game, Kyrgios' behavior has touched the referee's psychological bottom line, which has had an inevitable impact on the progress of the game.
However, Gao Wen was very calm and calmly gestured with his head to the referee, then turned and walked to the bottom line to prepare for the pre-match warm-up.
Gawain is not someone who likes to cause trouble. During competitive sports, he can just stay on the field and compete, and win the victory in an upright manner to shut up the opponent; but if the opponent has already provoked him with his forehead, then Gawain will definitely not swallow his anger.
type.
However, Gawain still kept himself calm and steady, and when he turned around to enter the warm-up phase, his concentration was already focused.
Kyrgios is a very, very dangerous opponent. Maybe he makes trouble out of nothing, and his rebellious and perverse personality is really unpopular. But we still have to admit that he does have the ability to defeat any player——
Even the Big Four must go all out when facing Kyrgios. Even if the Big Four defeat Kyrgios, their vitality is often severely damaged. This is why Kyrgios is called the "draw bomb". No one
Being able to stay relaxed when facing Kyrgios.
Gawain is a little excited.
In the last exhibition game, his five-point winning streak was largely due to luck and luck. If he had to do it again, he would definitely not be able to replicate it; but now that nine months have passed, he has completely transformed, so now is the time to test his upper limit.
It's time——
Perhaps Kyrgios is a touchstone, an opponent more elusive and uncontrollable than Isner.
Strategically, we need to despise our opponents, and tactically, we need to pay attention to our opponents.
In this game, Gawain needs to show himself without reservation and seek higher self-breakthrough, otherwise Kyrgios's words will become reality:
"I especially like the way others hate me but lose to me."
