Gawain gently patted the Italian lady's shoulder, indicating that Federer, who she had been waiting for, finally appeared. The lady gave Gawain a warm hug again to express her gratitude, and also hugged Dimitrov.
, and then staggered towards Federer.
Join the crowd.
In the bustling place, all the eyes in the hotel lobby were attracted by the eight players who appeared on the stage. The fans who were busy with their own affairs started to surge in. The crowds of people passing by in front of them surged rapidly. Gawain and Dimitro were busy.
It was as if the husband's surroundings had been cleaned up by a vacuum cleaner, forming a vacuum zone.
So, is there really any differential treatment between directly qualifying for the quarterfinals of the year-end finals and being a substitute player?
the answer is……
of course not.
"Gawain?"
The funny expression was still surging between his eyebrows. Before it could dissipate, some fans noticed that the first substitute and the second substitute were also present.
Previously, the fans had no intention of paying attention to the people coming and going in the hotel lobby. They were waiting boredly. The long and boring waiting time made them mentally tired. They couldn't help but lower their heads and stared at their mobile phones. Almost no one noticed that Gao Wen and
Dimitrov's appearance.
It was not until Wawrinka's appearance and the collective appearance of the top eight in the year-end finals that the scene became commotion, and then everyone's attention was brought back to reality. One or two people began to look at the hotel lobby, and soon noticed these two young people.
human figure.
"Oh, God!"
"Gawain?"
"It's really you! God oh oh oh, Paris did such a great job!"
"I really liked your performance in the final, incredible, incredible!"
The joy and excitement surging in the eyes of the fans, I can't lie, it's like they are shaking off fleas, their footsteps are constantly jumping in place, and their bodies are twisted into twists.
"Gregor? Oh! You're here too!"
"I'm going to tell Jenny, she won't believe it, I actually saw you two here!"
"Can I take a photo with you? And sign it."
"Please, please, please, I really like you."
Chattering, the appearance of one fan attracted the second and third fans, and then, a small circle formed around Gawain and Dimitrov.
Although the Italian lady just now unfortunately failed to recognize Gawain immediately, it does not mean that other fans still do not recognize Gawain.
In fact, in addition to China and North America, in Europe, Gao Wen, who appeared like a comet this year, has written a series of new histories. The treatment of being featured on the front page of the ATP official website three times a year is definitely among the new generation of players.
The first person is undoubtedly the best candidate for Person of the Year.
When he came to London this time, even if he was just a substitute, many eyes were still focused on Gawain.
But unfortunately, neither Gawain nor Dimitrov can stay long——
Gao Wen needs to go to massage therapy, and Dimitrov needs to go back to the room to wash up and then go to the O2 to adapt to the stadium. Neither thing can be delayed.
They satisfied the needs of several fans with a smile, and then Gawain pointed at the embarrassed Dimitrov and said that he needed to take a bath as soon as possible to avoid catching a cold. After asking for the fans' understanding, the two of them gave several fans hugs respectively.
They turned around and left the hotel lobby one after the other.
Behind them, it was still noisy.
It can be seen from the expressions of the hotel staff that they are not surprised. Apart from the O2 Arena, this should be the gathering place for fans.
Gawain and Dimitrov did not continue chatting and returned to their rooms. There were still busy things to do next.
Returning to the room, Gawain put down his equipment bag, changed his clothes, and prepared to receive massage treatment. He was about to go out——
"Knock knock!"
There was a knock on the door, and Gao Wen thought it was Sampras and Peart who were back, reminding him to go for a massage, so he raised his voice and replied.
"I'm getting ready to go out..."
When you open the door to the room, you can see your right hand hanging in the air as if knocking on the door, and then you can see a strange face.
"Roger?"
The person who appeared at the door of Gawain's room was actually Federer!
what happened?
In the tour, Gao Wen has not had any interaction with Federer so far, and there has never been a suitable opportunity either on or off the court.
And today, Federer actually came to visit?
"Sorry, Mr. Federer." Gawain immediately realized that he was a little abrupt and corrected his title.
Federer showed a gentleman's smile, laughter surging in his chest, "No, no, no, Mr. Federer is my father, just call me Roger."
"I'm the one who should be sorry. I just came to you directly. I hope it's not too presumptuous."
Elegant and well-behaved, even if it is the first time they meet, they can still feel like a spring breeze. I have to say that Federer does have his style.
"I just met a fan from Naples in the hotel lobby. She came to London to visit her daughter. Because she likes my game, she made a special trip to the hotel and hoped to visit me. But obviously, she encountered some difficulties."
"Then she told me that she was grateful to a young knight for her help, which allowed her to feel a touch of warmth in the cold winter in London. She thought she was a lovely little angel, and she entrusted me to express her sincere gratitude."
Ah, so that’s it.
Gawain suddenly understood, and the smile on his lips rose, "Honestly, I didn't help much because I didn't know anything about Italian. If it hadn't been for Gregor, I would have stood there like a fool. The only thing I did was
What I did was stand with the lady for a short while."
"This is a very important and precious move." Federer's voice had a hint of warmth, without being condescending or gesticulating. His tone was very comfortable, "I believe that the fans who like you will feel that
Very happy.”
"Just like your fans?" Gawain joked.
Federer laughed cheerfully and said, "Oh, that might still be a little off." Obviously, this was intentional, deliberately showing off a little pride and pride, but it made the conversation immediately relaxed.
Gawain also laughed.
Federer looked at Gawain and understood immediately, "It seems that you are going to get a massage? Then I won't delay you."
"By the way, if you have time, how about having breakfast together tomorrow? The lady gave me a very, very good piece of home-made cheese as a gift. I thought I should share it with everyone."
Federer made an invitation he couldn't refuse.
Gawain smiled and nodded, "This is my honor."
"By the way, invite Gregor too." Federer added.
Who would have thought that the first encounter between Gawain and Federer would be over a piece of cheese?
Now, Gawain is gradually feeling more real. He is making more and more friends on the tour and has officially become a member of the ATP. He is no longer the Alice who broke into the tree hole in "Wonderland".
Then, the 2014 ATP Year-End Finals officially kicked off at the O2 Arena in London!
