Match point

In fact, before the "Super Monday" kicked off, Puran had already experienced the frenzy of Wimbledon at close range——

buy tickets.

Not forgetting this Wimbledon tradition, Pollan decided to surprise Gawain, so she went to Wimbledon herself to buy the tickets.

According to the strategy, Puran arrived at the Wimbledon ticket window 43 hours ahead of schedule to set up a tent, and finally got the queue number [-] smoothly.

While waiting in line, Poulan heard the good news through the radio and the cheers at the scene. Gawain beat Troicki to advance to the fourth round, which also means that the plan for Super Monday can go smoothly, although Poulain has always been full of confidence in Gawain , but when he really won, Pulan couldn't help clenching his fists and shouting.

There was joy at the scene.

That was the first time Pulan felt the difference in the game scene. The deeper he went, the more he felt the difference in watching competitive sports games.

Thirty hours of long waiting, to be honest, is more interesting than expected. Although there is no live game to listen to on offseason days, the enthusiastic fans who come to line up to buy tickets are a treasure. Talking with them can always find countless fun, Even just listening quietly is a lot of fun.

To be precise, thirty hours is not so much waiting as a camping party for a group of like-minded friends, just like a rock music festival.

During the waiting process, Gao Wen also sent a text message, but Pu Lan was in a hurry, worried that he would reveal his flaws, Gao Wen's keenness would see through, and finally covered it up by saying that he was reading in the library, but his heart was beating wildly, Pu Lan strongly suspected My blood vessels are about to explode.

Not long after, the Wimbledon Organizing Committee announced the Super Monday schedule——

Center Court.

The first game, Venus Williams VS Serena Williams.

In the second game, Murray VS Karlovic.

In the third game, Federer VS Agut.

On Super Monday, when the schedule is crowded and crashed, the selection of the center court can still show the preference of the organizing committee:

The two matches between Murray and Federer are far from being a strong match, but with their strong box office appeal, their match has successfully entered the center court. It is no wonder that Djokovic fans frequently complain about their idols. .

However, there is no suspense for the No.20 Williams sisters to enter the center court in five family duels. After all, the two sisters are the first and second most Wimbledon champions among active players. This is also their Wimbledon. In the sixth confrontation, there is no suspense about the treatment of the center court.

Stadium one.

The first game, Sharapova VS Dias.

In the second round, Gawain VS Dimitrov.

In the third game, Djokovic VS Anderson.

Such an arrangement is also somewhat meaningful.

After Nadal was out, Wawrinka, the fourth seed, and Gawain, who is currently the second in the world, have undoubtedly become the objects of Wimbledon's pursuit. Both players are two-time Grand Slam champions and are currently members of the Challenger League. As for the leading figures, how the competition organizing committee arranges is also debatable.

In the fourth round, Wawrinka's opponent was Goffin, a new-generation player from Belgium; Gao Wen's opponent was last year's Wimbledon semifinalist Dimitrov.

Objectively speaking, these two games have topics and focuses, and they are both worthy of entering the No. 90 Court, but in the end, Wimbledon still chose "the future", that is, Gawain and Dimitrov" The strong collision of "post-[-]s", this choice has also aroused many discussions.

In fact, the reason is very simple.

Wawrinka has worked hard on the tour for many years. After he was a late bloomer, his commercial value has not ushered in a blowout. His jersey sponsor Yonex (Yonex) is not strong in the tennis field; but Gawain is different. Global commercial value Climbing steadily, popularity and topics are even more eye-catching.

Even Centennial Wimbledon is no exception.

then--

Another ingenious schedule was born. Sharapova and Dimitrov played back and forth again, and Gawain and Djokovic will also play back and forth.

Gossip among fans has started to rage.

Stadium number two.

Game [-], Gasquet vs Kyrgios.

In the second game, Wozniacki VS Muguruza.

In the third game, Wawrinka VS Goffin.

Here, many fans believe that the game between Gasquet and Kyrgios is underestimated, and some people who are afraid of chaos even think that this game should enter the center court, but obviously, in Super Week One, getting onto Center Court and Court One requires more than just the excitement of the game.

After the schedule was released, there were a lot of controversies——

The matches between A-Radwanska and Jankovic, Berdych and Simon were both arranged on the third court, and the match between Azarenka and Bencic was even arranged on the NO.12 court; however, Kudla, a qualifying player who has advanced all the way because of Kei Nishikori's retirement, is about to play against Cilic, but he is also arranged on the third court.

Strong duels and wonderful collisions are everywhere, but these events have to be played in those small stadiums, and they are completely unnoticed.

Still, this is Super Monday.

From one point of view, this is indeed a pity, for both the players and the audience; but from another point of view, it is also an opportunity for the audience, without going to the center court and No. Exciting matches of the top ten and twenty top players.

No wonder crowds at the All England Club hit new highs with ease on Super Monday.

Pullan thought that after [-] hours of queuing, he already had a deep understanding of Wimbledon mania, but when it really came to Monday, when he set foot on Wimbledon again, the crowds of people coming and going were easily overwhelmed. Devoured her, and she was lost again.

Shock, turbulence, frenzy, even the temperature and atmosphere of the air are completely different, you can see happy, excited, excited faces in sight, with the word "carnival" clearly written, even moving forward The footsteps are so light, stepping on the drums, dancing lightly.

Involuntarily, an exclamation came out, "Wow..."

The footsteps hesitated for a while, and then, a group of young people who were cheering and moving forward stopped. A girl stepped back a few steps and came to Pulan with a smile on her face, "Hey, do you need help?"

The other party also seemed to be aware of Pu Lan's confusion, and offered to lend a helping hand.

Pulan quickly looked away, "Court No. [-], I'm about to go to Court No. [-]."

The girl's eyes lit up immediately, "So are we, how about we lead the way and go together?" There was no trace of impurity in the enthusiastic expression, "We came here specially to watch Gao Wen's competition, God, his competition is so good, you Woolen cloth?"

Pulan didn't realize it himself, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose slightly, joy bubbling in his chest, "I also came to watch Gao Wen's game."
