Once again, Gao Wen truly experienced the "away away treatment".
From another perspective, if he can be hated by local fans, does that mean that Gao Wen played well in the first game?
Obviously, the local fans did not like the direction of the first game. The wails and exclamations easily drowned out the cheers of the Chinese fans.
But if it were just that, it would not cause the fans to be "hateful". What really made the fans "angry" was Gawain's follow-up actions:
he!
How could he!
Wait, what did Gawain do?
The problem is not that Gawain did anything, but rather that Gawain did nothing.
Gao Wen, after completing the shot through the net, was not too excited or too difficult. He watched the flight path of the tennis ball, confirmed the landing point, then stood up, took his own towel, and walked towards the players' rest area.
Go and prepare to exchange venues.
Just...that's it?
Yes, that’s it!
There was no fist-bumping celebration, no loud cheering, no impassionedness, no looking to the player box for confirmation, and there was even no sweat on the forehead. Everything was so understated, everything was so natural.
No need for extra movements or expressions, Yun Danfengqing's performance hit the fans hard in the chest.
And Kogkinakis.
Kogkinakis is still a little confused:
My serve has been perfected, and it was easily returned, and there was no problem with my offensive connection. In the end, my opponent easily scored, with only four shots in one go, and the entire service game was not even completed.
It's over in three minutes, what should I do?
Is this...are you sure this is the guy you fought against six months ago? Are you sure it's not an alien?
Looking at Gawain's figure, Kogkinakis was depressed and angry. He always felt that his blood was surging, but he was pressed down hard:
Frustrated.
I am really frustrated.
So, what else can be done?
Kogkinakis stood there and let out a long breath, and then took steps towards his players' dugout. He kept cursing and cheering to himself, but he was frustrated.
But I still feel a tightness in my chest, almost out of breath.
"ah!"
Kogkinakis endured and endured, but finally couldn't hold it back and roared without warning, finally regaining some composure.
The spectators in the stands were startled and frightened by Kogkinakis's inexplicable behavior. One or two of them exchanged glances, and they were depressed and speechless.
Vulgar words surged in my chest, but I couldn't curse them out——
Because Gawain did nothing.
But it is precisely because Gawain did nothing that it is even more frustrating.
The fans were immediately depressed.
Once the fans are depressed, the away players will suffer. Although the booing skills of Melbourne Park are not as good as Roland Garros at the French Open, the noise index of Melbourne Park is second to none, and has even become the first among the four major open tournaments.
A symbol unique to the Australian Open:
The "noisy" at the US Open and the "noisy" at the Australian Open are two different things.
At the U.S. Open, it was a murmur, like a hyperactive child who couldn't calm down.
The Australian Open was noisy, like a bunch of crows gathering together for a party.
"come on! Come on!"
The fans are also cheering each other on. This is the first game of the game. It doesn't matter if the serve is broken. You can't lose your momentum.
More importantly, look at Kogkinakis. It was precisely because he was so eager to win that he was so depressed and angry after being broken in the first game. He even screamed out without controlling it.
This is a good thing.
Since the players are full of high morale, the fans naturally need to give them their full support. At this moment, it is their turn to show their strength.
During Tomic's game just now, the fans at Hisense Stadium have already completed their warm-up, and now they can directly burst out with energy without the need for transition——
In sharp contrast, the Chinese fans had just entered the stadium and were disoriented. Before they had time to adapt to the stadium, the "war" had already begun.
Amidst the cheers, the local fans finally regained their attention, and the cheers erupted. Before they even started, the overwhelming cheers resounded through the sky.
It is the most iconic landscape of the Australian Open, fluttering in the wind at Hisense Stadium.
“Let’s-Go! Tannethy, come on! Bang bang.”
"Come on! Tannethy, come on! Bang bang!"
Cheers and high fives.
Support again, high-five again.
At first, it was just a small group of fans, but the roaring support soon spread, and more and more local fans joined in, releasing amazing energy.
The fans wearing bright yellow jerseys waved the blue Australian flag vigorously, and looking around, it looked like a surging ocean.
They are cheering for Kogkinakis.
However, this situation is somewhat familiar to Gawain:
Blue, the color of the Bruins jersey.
It is also the color of Gao Wen’s jersey for this year’s Australian Open.
This year's Australian Open, Nike designed a new jersey and boots for Gao Wen. The haze blue jersey is paired with sapphire blue trim, which is full of youthful wantonness and publicity. The iconic wolf head is still embroidered on the cuff of his right arm.
.
It looks like an ordinary plain jersey, but you can see mint blue light ripples on the left hem, like the traces of waves blown by the breeze, fluttering high.
The jersey has just been released and has sparked heated discussions on social networks and has been unanimously praised by fashionistas and young fans.
Not only the color matching, but also the design, the addition of embroidery is a wonderful touch!
After Federer, Nike has once again found a perfect fit between fashion and competition. Different from the elegance of the Swiss King, Gao Wen's jersey is more youthful, public and energetic. You can feel the uniqueness of this young player in every aspect.
temperament.
After the jersey was released, it not only became a photo-taking tool for the photo wall circle of friends, but also became a fashion item with the unveiling of the Australian Open.
In just two weeks, the sales of jerseys have easily exceeded 10 million US dollars, reaching a sales volume that was only reached in one month in the fourth quarter of last year. The popularity that has spread is still rising, attracting more and more people.
With more and more attention coming, this once again proves Nike’s wisdom.
At this time, blue and blue, even though they have different tones, blend into each other, creating a natural harmony, as if the lake merges into the ocean.
This place is a bit like Gawain's home court.
On the contrary, Kogkinakis, wearing a dark purple jersey, looked out of place.
If the uninformed crowd accidentally stopped while changing channels, they would have thought that this was Gawain’s home field. Isn’t this a reversal of subject and object?
Obviously, local fans haven’t had time to realize this yet——
The cheering did not last long. After the exchange of venues, the game continued, and the fans had to stop and continue watching the game.
However, Kogkinakis' game still didn't get better.
"40:0".
As Kogkinakis's return of serve went straight out of bounds, giving Gawain three consecutive game points in the blink of an eye, Kogkinakis was very disappointed with himself.
"ah!"
"Ahhh!"
Kogkinakis kept yelling at himself: What's going on? What's going on? Since the beginning, apart from one ACE, he has not scored a single point?
How can it be?
How can this be!
"Ahhh!"
Kogkinakis felt like his head was going to explode.
