Thiem, who also advanced to the fourth round at the US Open for the first time, failed to attract much discussion and attention because of Gawain's brilliance.
But Tim didn't care at all. He still prepared diligently and conscientiously for each of his games, and he often went in and out of the gym with Gawain——
As the game progresses, the number of players staying in the locker room gradually decreases, and players like them who work hand in hand gradually become closer. The opportunities to meet and get along with each other outside the game gradually increase, and naturally they become more and more familiar with each other.
Today is the match day for the top half, and tomorrow will be for the bottom half, so Gao Wen has a match today, and Tim's next round match is scheduled for tomorrow, against Tomas Berdych.
Although Berdych's best career record in a Grand Slam is a Wimbledon runner-up, he still lacks some methods to face the top ten players in the world; but facing players with lower world rankings, Berdych
The quality of the competition is very solid, and the winning rate is maintained well.
Moreover, Berdych is the sixth seed in this tournament.
Tim needs to go all out.
Gao Wen is giving Tim confidence, and now Gao Wen is not the only one, other players are also cheering for Tim, applause comes one after another.
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The players' restaurant became noisy again, and it was even noisier than before.
Bouchard couldn't believe her eyes. Although she didn't notice Gawain's every move, and naturally didn't know how Gawain did it, she believed that she had become a laughing stock, and the culprit was Gawain.
With a sudden movement, Bouchard stood up directly, turned around to face Gawain and Tim, and sternly accused them with a serious face.
"You just accused Kyrgios of making inappropriate jokes, but now look at yourself and casually joke about the order and rules of public places. What's the difference between you and him?"
"In my opinion, Kyrgios at least has a little bit of entertainment spirit, but you are just a clown trying to please others. Who are you to condemn others?"
The air is slightly stagnant.
Tim was a little surprised.
When Kyrgios interfered with the game, he was trying to use side tactics to disrupt the progress of the game. How could he get over it with a "joke"?
Gao Wen heckled his friends and sang a song in the players' restaurant, but was accused of disturbing order in public places. Are you sure this is not a big deal?
Tim couldn't understand, how could these two things be compared and confused?
Of course, strictly speaking, noise is prohibited in public places. This is true. Bouchard’s condemnation is correct, but did Bouchard really not use chicken feathers as arrows? How can she compare Kyrgios’ behavior with Gawain?
, the nature and definition of the two things are fundamentally different, okay?
It's a joke, but it also depends on the situation.
Tim was a little angry, "This lady..."
But Gawain's reaction was faster. Before Tim could respond further, he stood up and once again bowed slightly in the direction of Bouchard and the entire restaurant in a polite manner, formally apologizing.
"Sorry to disturb everyone's meal time."
There was no excuse or argument, just a straightforward apology, but it seemed ridiculous because it was too formal. After all, everyone was enjoying it very much just now, and they didn't feel that it was too noisy to affect the meal. Instead, they had a pleasant feeling because of the small incident.
good mood.
This is like a self-study class in high school. The monitor maintains discipline and requires everyone to stay quiet and concentrate on self-study. The students all know that the monitor’s words are correct, but no one likes them.
"It's okay, Gawain." Yankovic was the first to wave to Gawain and said bluntly, "I don't feel disturbed. On the contrary, I like it very much. Let's sing karaoke together another day."
"After saying that, she burst out laughing heartily, her laughing aunt's free and easy look undisguised.
"it's okay no problem."
"Dominique, come on!"
"The singing is pretty good."
The players were chattering, and the players were joking and joking one after another. The tense atmosphere did not last long, and it became joyful again in the blink of an eye.
Bouchard couldn't believe his eyes, looked around, and then found that he was alone and without the support of his comrades. He clearly wanted to achieve justice, but he failed to achieve a thankless task. Instead, he became a spoiler of the party atmosphere. In the end, he just stared angrily.
He glanced at Gawain.
Gawain did not avoid it, but faced Bouchard's gaze head-on, and said with a smile, "Next time, I will try my best to be a clown who pleases everyone. Sorry, today's entertainment effect did not meet expectations."
Can't Gawain take a joke?
Obviously not.
On the contrary, Gauvin is a very entertaining person. "Training is crazy and the parties are even crazier." Just ask the Bruins players.
Faced with Bouchard's accusation, Gao Wen accepted it humbly. After all, it was true that he interfered with the order of the players' restaurant, but there was no need to be too serious and ruin the fun of life.
Chichi.
Gawain's light-hearted and humorous words once again made the others beside him laugh lowly, but in Bouchard's eyes, they turned out to be glib sophistry.
"This is not funny at all."
Bouchard glared at Gawain again, then turned around and sat back without saying anything more or giving Gawain a chance to continue speaking.
The players’ restaurant has finally returned to normalcy, but it’s not completely normal——
Gao Wen could clearly feel the friendly and cordial glances from many players around him, and nodded with a smile. The slight heat wave surging in the air still seemed to be responding to Gao Wen's small support activities, even because
Such an episode has brought us closer together.
Tim looked at Gawain who was sitting down, his expression still a little worried, "I'm sorry, Gawain, should you be fine?"
"The only thing I need to worry about is that my innate singing voice has been exposed after all. Alas, I can't even keep a low profile." Gawain said nonsense seriously.
Tim looked at the nonchalant and relaxed Gawain in front of him, feeling helpless and funny. After all, he couldn't hold it back and started laughing. However, he was worried that he would cause another conflict, so he had to lower his voice and chuckled muffledly.
.
Tobias, who was sitting at the breakfast table and witnessed the scene just now, had a smile in his eyes and at the corners of his mouth.
He didn't expect that Tim and Gao Wen could actually become friends, because in private Tim was indeed a bit shy and slow-tempered. It was usually easy to see him getting close to other players. It should take some time to adapt and get familiar with each other.
, or maybe the personality is inherently more introverted.
He had no idea that a small accident would occur in the players' restaurant, and Gao Wen's handling was simple and direct. He once again showed his maturity and stability, and got along well with other players. Being in the limelight can easily cause jealousy.
Under the circumstances, skillfully defuse the edge.
