Match Point: Chapter 1121 Invincible
Chapter 1122 Invincible
In the post-match press conference, Rublev said in an interview,
"Seeing Gao Wen achieve such outstanding results is an inspiration to me. He is only 19 years old. He was a teenager player a year ago, but now he is a Grand Slam champion."
"I think Gawain is a goal and a role model for all young players."
Not only Zhang Ze, Gao Wen's butterfly effect also has an objective existence on the new generation of young players.
Thanks to Gao Wen's all-round rise, Lublev, as a "post-95" player, made his debut on the Masters stage for the first time, which also aroused heated discussions in a small area.
So that Coric has become a thing of the past in a blink of an eye, because of the qualifying round of the "Sunshine Double Crown", both Coric stopped and still failed to enter the main match.
So, does anyone still remember last year's Basel match, where Coric upset Nadal?
...This is a bit embarrassing.
However, it doesn't matter, the "post-95s" new forces are coming on stage one after another, and soon brought Coric back to the center of the spotlight—
Continue to whip the corpse.
Although more and more young players born after 1995 have turned to the professional arena, and have received a lot of attention because of their outstanding performance in their youth.
But when they really stand on the ATP field, the gap between them and professional players is immediately highlighted. This year's talent seems to be lacking a little bit of enthusiasm.
Not to mention whether they are ready to challenge the Big Four, even against other professional players, their performance on the field is far from satisfactory.
Especially when facing the leader of the new generation, Gao Wen, who was also a player born after 1995, but the gap between Gao Wen's maturity and excellence has widened in a blink of an eye.
Dubai, against Coric, "6:1", "6:1".
Miami, against Rublev, "6:1", "6:1".
Two games, four fritters, Gao Wen showed absolute dominance, with a gesture of sweeping thousands of troops, he responded head-on to all discussions and proved himself once again.
Perhaps, in terms of age, they are all youth storms born after 1995, but Gao Wen's level has widened the gap and entered a higher level.
But, apparently, someone disagrees with that —
Riot, from Gawain's opponent in the third round.
"No, what I'm really looking forward to is the next round against Anderson."
Alexander Zverev, also known as Zverev Jr., after defeating Australian player Gross to advance to the third round of the Miami Masters, he not only became the second "post-95" after Gao Wen to complete such a feat Players, and also won the chance to compete against Gao Wen for the top sixteen seats.
The storm is coming!
In the post-match interview, the German rising star said so, and also showed a confident smile, as if he was very satisfied with his answer.
Obviously, he directly ignored Gao Wen, and his eyes were already on Kevin Anderson, a potential opponent in the quarter-finals. He exuded strong confidence from the inside out:
Even though there were no foul words or foul language, or even any direct or indirect attacks, one could still feel the pride in his bones.
Little Zverev didn't pay attention to Gao Wen at all.
Last week, Zverev Jr. participated in the qualifying round in Indian Wells. Like Rublev, he stopped in the final round and unfortunately missed the main match.
This week, after traveling to Miami, Zverev Jr. found his hand, successfully passed the qualifying test and advanced to the main match, and showed a good competitive state:
Defeated Rosol in the first round and Gross in the second round. For the first time in his career, he advanced to the third round on the stage of the Masters.
The next opponent—
Gawain!
Compared with Lublev, Zverev Jr. was active in the public eye for a whole year last year. The praise of "genius boy" has spread all over the world. Countless professionals believe that they are witnessing the next "world's No. With the rise of "one", the revival of German tennis has dawned.
If it hadn't been for Coric's surprise defeat of Nadal in Basel at the end of the year, I'm afraid all eyes would be on the German genius.
However, anticipation is directly proportional to pressure, and this has also become the footsteps that restrained Zverev Jr. from his early achievements. Until now, the Miami Masters finally witnessed Zverev Jr.’s flashes. In an instant, all the cheers and praises surged. , the media was once again bustling with excitement.
"Genius", is it about to shine?
and!
Zverev's opponent in the third round was Gao Wen.
Without any effort, the enthusiasm and madness of the media reporters were all ignited, blowing out in an all-round way, even more noisy than Gao Wen's challenge to Djokovic and Federer.
From Coric in 1996 to Rublev in 1997 to Zverev Jr. in 1997, new generations of challengers are emerging one after another.
These young players also all focused their attention on Gao Wen. The two-time Grand Slam champion born in 1995 has become the number one goal of the new generation to prove themselves on stage. Maybe they don’t have the courage to challenge the Big Four. But Gao Wen had no problem.
Before that, there was Coric's "I am ready to beat him", followed by Zverev's "What I am really looking forward to is the opponent in the next round".
Young people, indeed, are… alive and well.
One step, another step, hot spots, gradually attacking.
If it is said that when Lublev challenged Gao Wen, the hype of the media was still "forcibly creating conflicts", and there were some disturbances even if there was no disturbance. The challenge, the topic has naturally been formed.
What's more, the German genius in front of him is full of confidence and defiant. He doesn't need the media to provoke him, and he has already launched the attack first—
The sharpness of the millennial generation is indeed completely different from before.
When Zverev Jr. said those words lightly, the entire press conference hall boiled, and the air reached boiling point, making it difficult to suppress the surge of emotions.
At that scene, it was as if a hedgehog appeared on the chair. One or two stood up one after another, scrambling to raise their hands high, for the opportunity to ask questions.
The audience is boiling.
"Sasha, you know you're up against Gawain in the next round, right? Not only has he won the Australian Open, but he just topped Indian Wells last week."
Subtext, feeling hot.
The German reporter was also so stupid that he wasted precious opportunities to ask questions and restated the facts again, kindly reminding Zverev Jr.
From here, one can deeply feel how shocked the young Zverev’s provocation is~www.mtlnovel.com~ However, the young Zverev seems to be completely unaware, and has no idea how many waves his words have created , with a calm face, showing a bright smile.
"I know, I still follow the ATP tennis news."
"Obviously, Gao Wen has performed very well recently, but I also know that I will beat him."
An understatement.
Concise and concise.
But precisely because of this, he could feel the strong self-confidence that Zverev radiated from the inside out, and he didn't take Gao Wen seriously at all.
Reporters: ? ? ?
Don't get me wrong, the reporters like it, they like it very much, and they don't need them to provoke discord, and Zverev Jr. has already sent enough topics.
The problem is, self-confidence is good, but blind confidence is stupid.
interesting.
very interesting.
Are young people like this now?
