Facing McEnroe's question, Gawain did not answer directly. Instead, he spread his hands and showed a helpless expression that could not be explained in words, once again filling Arthur Ashe Stadium with smiles.
McEnroe also immediately asked, "What's wrong? Did your parents say anything?"
"I guess they are a little disappointed. Their plans to visit New York need to be postponed," Gao Wen said jokingly.
Amidst the laughter, Gao Wen continued to explain, "Actually, my parents and I haven't seen each other for a long time. This time they came to New York just to cheer me up and hope that I can concentrate on the competition; but the real purpose
They are here for vacation, and they also need an excuse to escape from their daily life and take a short vacation, but they just didn't expect..."
"I didn't expect that the travel plan was disrupted." McEnroe took the initiative to take over the conversation and laughed without hesitation, "So are they there now?"
Gao Wen waved towards his players' box and said in Chinese, "Mom, I'm sorry, I disrupted your travel plans."
Gurgling.
Gurgling.
The entire audience's attention followed the camera lens and was projected towards Gao Wen's player box.
Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun were not used to the feeling of such attention, and they could still see the live broadcast of the camera; but Gao Wen's joke made the two of them couldn't help but smile, and their nervousness and restraint were relieved a lot.
At this moment, the netizens in front of the computer screen suddenly heard the familiar Chinese language, and they all typed "666" one after another, and the barrage filled the screen turned into a swarm of numbers.
McEnroe then made a little joke, "Obviously I saw a familiar face in your player box, but I will never mention his name." The gnashing of teeth made the entire audience burst into laughter.
, it seems that McEnroe and Sampras should also have a good relationship in private.
Immediately afterwards, McEnroe resumed the interview rhythm, "So, what has impressed you most at this year's US Open so far?"
"here."
Gawain stepped on the court beneath his feet.
"It's the most incredible thing to stand in Arthur Ashe Stadium and play in front of thousands of people, surrounded by howling wolves and cheers."
"I still remember the classic battle of 'Sampras VS Agassi' here. The little boy who used to wait in front of the TV to watch the game had a dream and imagined the feeling of standing on that stage, and now everything has come true.
Then I realized that I was a hundred times happier than I imagined."
"These cheers, these applause, these faces, including these boos..."
Hahaha. The whole audience burst into laughter.
"All of these things make the game special."
With simple and unpretentious words, Gawain conveyed his true feelings——
Obviously, there are many things worth remembering and praising in competitive sports, and among them, fans are always the most important and moving part. Games without spectators lack soul. This is an eternal truth.
Ouch!
In the stands of the stadium, someone howled like a wolf. Compared with applause and cheers, howling seemed to be a more appropriate and vivid way of supporting people. It truly showed the unyielding and proud nature of Gawain, who never gave up and never gave up in the fight.
interest!
Ouch!
Ouch!
The audience at Arthur Ashe Stadium made their voices heard one after another and responded to Gawain's feelings with practical actions, making tonight truly leave a deep mark.
Perhaps Arthur Ashe Stadium will never be lonely, and wonderful games will be staged here year after year, but the audience will also never forget that there was once a Chinese boy who used his own skills here.
His boldness and tenacity left a lasting mark.
Ouch!
Ouch!
On the computer screen, barrages once again flooded the screen, not only because they witnessed a victory that made history, but also because of the way of victory. Gao Wen used practical actions to show his edge and personality and conquer the fans.
The match is over; the interview is over. The curtain on the sixth match day of the US Open has finally come to an end, but the incredible heat wave has just begun.
"Gao Wen: Entered the second week strongly in his first Grand Slam trip."
"Another upset! Wild card player Gao Wen's progress has not stopped!"
"From not winning a game to winning three games in a row, Gao Wen's miraculous journey of breaking the historical record of Chinese men's players continues."
"How exactly did Gowan make history: remain unbeaten since the start of the season in the spring."
"Youth Storm has a strong showdown. Gawain defeats Kyrgios and advances to the top 16."
"Chinese players shine in Flushing, Gao Wen and Peng Shuai join hands to reach the top 16!"
boom!
Boom boom boom!
All media around the world have given praise. Not only China, all major media have immediately paid attention to it, from the upset defeat of Isner in the first round to winning three consecutive games to reach the second place.
Zhou, even if he removes the label of "Chinese men's player", it is very amazing.
Looking at the long history of men's professional tennis, there is only one player who can create such a feat.
Sergi-Bruguera, the two-time French Open champion has two proud records in his career:
First, he is the only player in professional tennis who has a leading win-loss record against Sampras and Federer, two legendary tennis champions.
Secondly, in 1989, Bruguera made his first Grand Slam appearance at the French Open, and reached the fourth round, setting a record that no one has been able to break so far - it was also at the French Open that year,
Seventeen-year-old Zhang Depei became the youngest French Open champion in history.
However, Bruguera had been competing in tennis for more than half a year at that time. When the French Open opened, his world ranking had risen to 44, so the upset was not as "cold" as imagined. It should be said that he was a star of tomorrow.
In addition, there is another person who is closest to such a historical record——
John McEnroe.
It was McEnroe who had just interviewed Gao Wen on the court. In 1977, McEnroe moved from youth to adult competition. McEnroe passed the qualifying test and participated in the French Open and Wimbledon consecutively. He first reached the second round at the French Open and then again at the French Open.
Wimbledon emerged like a comet from the sky and reached the semi-finals with a bang.
Including the qualifying rounds, McEnroe won eight games in a row and finally lost to Jimmy Connors in the semifinals. Unfortunately, he was unable to go further.
At that time, McEnroe, who was only 18 years old, had unparalleled talent and unbridled personality. He made his debut and truly created a miracle. Even now, many years later, no one can break it, even just one.
It's very, very difficult to even get close.
It is precisely because of the incredible performance of these legendary figures that it makes Gao Wen's performance even more amazing, which is enough to be noticed in the long history. Compared with Bruguera and McEnroe, Gao Wen's performance
