Assuming that Nishikori Kei goes further than Gawain at this year's US Open, will brands give up on Gawain? The answer is absolutely no. After all, the Chinese market is different.
However, will brands’ assessment of Gao Wen’s market value be affected? The answer is absolutely yes, the publicity effect will be different after all.
If Kei Nishikori and Gawain have the same final results, or if Gawain is better, then the "right time, place and people" will be able to achieve the most perfect state of harmony.
It is precisely because of this that Tobias eagerly hopes that Raonic will work hard——
Tonight, the main event of the night game at Arthur Ashe Stadium will be between Raonic and Kei Nishikori.
The US Open continues this year's youth storm theme in terms of event arrangements. Even though the two big names Murray and Djokovic are competing today, the Center Court still chooses two youth duels to enter the night game, regardless of the quality of the games.
However, they are all firm in their strategy of promoting young people to the big stage.
Raonic naturally didn't understand Tobias's little ninety-nine, and he couldn't help but scratch his head. After expressing his gratitude, he still looked at Gawain and asked very politely.
"Exactly, I also want to ask you, how do you feel about the night game?"
Night games, this is a new experience, because currently all tour matches are scheduled for matinees. Night games are a unique option for the US Open, just to boost ratings, but for the players, the physiological state and competitive state are very different.
After getting used to the day game, including sunlight, wind direction, stadium environment, etc., you need to readjust after entering the night game.
Everything is strange.
Although it is said that asking others about their experiences is effective, after all, it is only correct to experience it yourself, but it is always better to have a little more confidence in your mental state.
This is also the difference between a coaching team with Grand Slam championship experience and one without.
Gawain didn't skimp on his experience at all.
"First of all, the overall quality of the ball will be heavier, and the wind is very strong at night. The weight of the ball feels heavier, and the ball does not move forward very much, so you need to pay more attention to the wind direction."
"Secondly, the body muscles will be a little tighter, probably due to the influence of the temperature. I played three sets in the previous game that day, and I warmed up many times before adapting to the temperature. You can check the time tonight and ask.
Coach, add some warm-up time."
"In addition, replenish energy earlier, and be careful to wipe away sweat and keep warm. After the game that day, I had some cramps in my calves. Pete said it was because I replenished energy too late and failed to keep up with the physical exertion."
Just a few words, but full of useful information.
It's not because Gawain wants Raonic to defeat Kei Nishikori - Tobias's roundabout ideas, he really has no idea at all; it's purely to share his own game experience, and these things are not secrets anyway, if
It would be great if I could be of a little help.
Raonic was a little touched. He just asked with a glimmer of hope. If Gawain said a few polite words, he would have no problem. However, he did not expect to receive Gawain's help. He showed a
Smile and say sincerely, "Thank you, brother."
"No, anyway, after tonight ends, these are no longer secrets. I just told you one step earlier." Gawain waved his hand nonchalantly.
But Raonic shook his head and said, "It's a matter of course. I still need to thank you."
"Ah, why are you so Canadian? Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that you are Canadian." Gao Wen patted his head, and the look of holding his forehead immediately made Raonic and Tim laugh -
Canadians are polite, very polite, too polite. They never leave the word "thank you" and never leave the word "sorry". It has become a label for them. So much so that when he was studying in high school and university, Gao Wen heard other people say it more than once.
He joked, "You're not Canadian, so how can you be so polite?"
As a result, I actually met a Canadian today.
Diagonally opposite, another Canadian turned around again and gave this corner a sharp look.
However, because Raonic's tall and thick figure blocked the line of sight like a wall, the signal transmission could not be completed; in fact, this time both Thiem and Raonic controlled the volume, and the low laughter was not exaggerated.
, but in the ears of caring people, they always feel that they are speaking ill of themselves.
Unfortunately there is no evidence.
Finally, his scorching gaze fell on Raonic's stiff back and he cut it, but he didn't get any response. Instead, he laughed extremely happily, leaning forward and backward as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
, she turned back angrily and said nothing more.
Quietly, Tobias was watching all this.
From inviting Tim to practice together in the players' cafeteria, to teasing Raonic with ease, to the brief interactions and exchanges with other players just now, Gao Wen showed a rare affinity and sociability, which was not the same as him in San Antonio.
Plath, the humor and calmness shown in front of older people like me are slightly different.
It can be seen that Gawain is completely at ease among his peers, and it is obvious at a glance that he is the type who has friends all over the world.
This is a good thing.
The relaxed, pleasant, natural and joyful atmosphere is soaked in the golden sunshine of late summer in New York, surging in the air, completely unaffected by the episode just now, the chatter and laughter of you and me are filled with lightness and comfort, a certain
For a moment, I even forgot the fact that today is a brand new game day.
Looking at the young people in front of him, Tobias suddenly came up with the idea that maybe among these young people, there are leaders of the next generation of players. Even after the US Open is over, they will grow into the best players on the tour.
Young forces compete together, compete together, and urge each other to improve.
Why is the duel "Federer VS Nadal" regarded as a legend by countless fans?
Not only because they are constantly making history, competing with each other and risking countless classic matchups; but also because every time they play against each other, they urge each other to become a better player.
Who knows?
Among this group of young people, there may also be such opponents. They work together to grow and progress together, and create a new era together.
Thinking of this, Tobias became a little excited. He happened to catch a glimpse of a figure in the corner of his eyes and immediately raised his hand to say hello.
"Gregor!"
Dimitrov, who had just entered the players' restaurant, looked over and the corners of his mouth immediately raised, like a golden boy.
Two months ago, Raonic and Dimitrov both reached the semi-finals at Wimbledon, becoming the first players born after 1990 to achieve a breakthrough, and they are still the most popular leaders of the younger generation.
.
If we add Gao Wen and Thiem, then this year's US Open men's singles four "post-90s" will gather together, which is also a rare sight.
