Match point

The chaos and turmoil in Flushing in 2015 continues.

On the sixth match day, matinee, four more players, including Vesely, had no choice but to withdraw from the match, continuing to refresh the data of this year's US Open withdrawal frenzy.

You must know that we have entered the third round of the tournament at this time, which is a rare opportunity for any player, especially in this year's all-out chaos. The quota for the second week of the Grand Slam is waved in front. If it is not a last resort, No one wants to withdraw from the competition at this juncture.

however--

16 people.

So far, 16 people have withdrawn from the competition.

The sweltering heat is a severe test for every player, even more so than Wimbledon, where the unpredictable weather steals the spotlight.

At the same time, the "mistakes" of the US Open organizers have also become the focus of criticism and attack.

The outdoor temperature was as high as 33 degrees, and the ground temperature easily exceeded [-] degrees. Professional players were sweating profusely and their body temperatures soared during strenuous exercise. However, the indoor temperature in the players' lounge was controlled below [-] degrees, and countless air conditioners faced it. The players are running crazy with output.

The huge temperature difference caused severe physical discomfort, and many players developed cold symptoms——

Including Murray.

Even comparable to the flu.

The frenzy of withdrawals is a superficial phenomenon. Behind it, there are weather effects, injuries, uncontrollable factors, but there are also human factors in the event. In the chaos and turmoil, people's panic and anxiety quietly spread. Farah, who is already noisy, Sheng was wrapped in impetuousness.

In addition, there have been a series of conflicts over the arrangement of event shuttles and training ground reservations, etc. The lack of professionalism in event organization has made matters worse.

Complaints abound.

Uneasy.

It was against this background that Gawain’s accidental injury made headlines——

The defending champion was almost stopped in the first week of the Grand Slam, just a little bit short of being able to defend his title.

There is no doubt that this is second only to Nadal's elimination.

Of course, Gao Wen's career is still too short and cannot be compared with Nadal. You must know that after the end of this year's US Open journey, Nadal's magical record of winning at least one Grand Slam championship for ten consecutive years has officially been drawn. Period, Gawain's magical nature pales in comparison.

However, from an impact perspective, Gawain's distress is still powerful, setting off a frenzy of discussion on social networks.

After all, in the past four Grand Slams, Gauvin's worst performance was also in the semi-finals. If he is eliminated in the first week in Flushing, does that mean that Gauvin's magical aura has completely dissipated?

US Open, champion.

Australian Open, champion.

French Open, semi-finals.

Wimbledon, semi-finals.

Listed in this way, it is very clear that Gao Wen's performance shows a step-like downward trajectory, and then?

The cliff-like decline stopped in the third round?

Just by thinking about it, you can imagine how rampant those black men will be if Gawain really loses this game.

Of course, Gawain didn't.

However, the hate speech continues.

Apart from those lunatics who habitually accuse Gawain of faking his injuries, more haters still firmly believe that Gawain is on a decline——

Two injuries in less than three weeks was a sign from the universe.

Perhaps, Gawain's magical aura has indeed lost its magic power, and he will become an ordinary member of the tour and return to the ordinary.The anti-fans had a collective party.

In fact, not only ignorant people, but also professionals have given objective evaluations, and one of these opinions is not uncommon.

They believed that Gawain's body was protesting in such a way that it needed a rest after a year of continuous ups and downs.

In this way, it is consistent with science.

Judging from the current professional tennis theory, Gao Wen's body is still a little thin, and he needs more muscle support, otherwise his battery life and durability may be lost in increasingly high-intensity top duels. Relatively fast, just like the continuous accidents in the past month.

Accidents are indeed accidents, but behind two consecutive accidents, there is also necessity hidden.

"One year is the time to expose such a crisis."

——Professionals say so.

It is conceivable that when people discuss the possibility of winning the US Open championship this year, Gao Wen's prospects have further dimmed. The continuous decline in winning odds of betting companies is the most intuitive proof.

This cannot be considered an accident.

Originally, Gao Wen's draw was loose at the front and tight at the back. The first half was relatively easy, but after entering the second week, he had to face a series of tests; and now, the old injuries have not yet healed, and new injuries have been added, and the situation It is even more worrying, as both his competitive state and physical condition are sending out negative signals.

At present, the most intuitive thing is, how are the ankles?
At the post-match press conference, there was no doubt that this incident was the center of attention.

In this regard, Gao Wen said, "It's not a serious problem."

After preliminary inspection, it was just a simple ankle sprain. After bandaging and fixation, the ankle received sufficient support and did not deteriorate further. At the same time, he did not feel pain in the second half of the game, and his movement was not significantly affected. This is why Gao Wen was able to persist. The reason for coming down.

When reporters asked Gao Hongli whether he asked Gao Wen to withdraw from the competition, Gao Wen honestly affirmed.

"Not only my father, but I myself also considered quitting the race, more than once."

"I told myself that my career is still very long. If I miss this year, there will be next year, the year after that, and the year after that. We should take a long-term view."

"But I still want to try it."

"I don't like the concept of retiring. It's a pity for my opponents, the audience, and myself; moreover, I don't want my first title defense to end with a retirement. Even if I lose the game, I still don't want it to end." I want to show my respect by persisting in an upright manner until the end of the game."

Gawain is still the same Gawain, never changed.

Especially after this summer, from clay to grass and back to hard courts, this series of ups and downs has revealed Gowan's characteristics both inside and outside the court bit by bit. This has also become the "fight" of the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium. "The direct cause of the surge.

However, this is not the end.

After the press conference, for the sake of safety, Gao Wen went to the hospital to take pictures to further confirm the situation.

"It's nothing serious. You can continue playing, just pay attention to protection."

After getting a detailed diagnosis and professional opinion, Gowan fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Although no one wants to see injuries occur, this is good news in a bad situation and deserves to be celebrated.

Regardless of whether Gawain can go further, at least New York audiences can continue to see Gawain appear on the stage.

Chaos, is that all?

No, of course not.

It would be naive to think that this is the peak.

The so-called disaster is often a fatal blow when people think that this is the limit.

The chaos at this year's US Open began with Sharapova's withdrawal due to injury before the game. The ominous premonition spread. After players such as Kei Nishikori, Nadal, Murray and Kovin, they finally won the sixth place. It reaches its peak on game day night.

boom!
With a muffled sound, this happened.
