Match Point: Chapter 2032 focus on yourself
【match point】【】
If Djokovic advances to the final, regardless of Gao Wen's performance, he will be locked in the world number one at the end of the year.
If Djokovic advances to the semifinals, Gao Wen needs to win the championship to become the world's number one at the end of the year.
If Djokovic is eliminated in the group stage, Gao Wen needs to win the championship to become the world's number one at the end of the year.
It’s clear at a glance—
In other words, Djokovic's performance actually has nothing to do with Gao Wen, because no matter what the situation, if Gao Wen wants to become the world's number one at the end of the year, the first necessary condition is to win the final championship, otherwise everything will be in vain.
He needs to firmly control his own destiny.
Therefore, when the media began to commotion because Djokovic's fate of qualifying for the group was unresolved, Gao Wen did not waver in the slightest.
Focused, calm and collected.
Gawain, as always, showed maturity and wisdom that belied his age. Once again, the reporter's attempt to create waves hit a wall, and the atmosphere was a bit funny.
The back-and-forth conversation between questions and answers stopped without warning because the reporter shut up, and the press conference room fell into a brief silence.
You look at me, I look at you, the awkwardness and stalemate between each other is subtly surging in the air.
Then.
Gawain shrugged slightly.
"I think I still have a little say in math."
One second, two seconds...
The whole audience burst into laughter.
Although the reporter tried to create chaos time and time again but was suppressed by Gawain, the cheerful atmosphere in the press conference room was still strangely maintained throughout.
This is the charm of Gawain.
Then you can see Gao Wen raising his right hand and looking at the reporter expectantly.
"Doesn't anyone care about my next match with Rafa?"
"Honestly, I'm ready to take questions. I'm sure this will be a special game. Aren't you ready to hear my boring and boring official statement?"
Eager to try, gearing up.
The relaxed and joking tone still cannot be concealed, this is the focus of Gawain's attention.
From last year's Magic City to this year's Melbourne and later Roland Garros, Gauvin and Nadal have played against each other many times on different occasions.
Obviously this isn't the first time and shouldn't feel special.
However, in Gawain's view, this game has special significance.
Since last year, Nadal has been plagued by injuries and is far from being adjusted to his best condition. His peak and Gao Wen's peak are unfortunately staggered, so among the four giants, Gao Wen and Nadal have played the least number of times.
However!
Even Nadal, who is still weak, still left a deep impression on Gao Wen in the two games of the Australian Open and the French Open. After all, the left-handed player's playing style is indeed different. Even outside of clay court, he still shows his personality.
Gawain couldn't help but look forward to it. What would it be like if he met Nadal who was back to his best?
Not long ago, Gauvin and Nadal met once in the semi-finals of Shanghai. Gauvin narrowly won in three sets. At that time, Nadal had already shown signs of recovery. Now that he has come to London, he has further restored his style.
With a clean and straight score, he defeated Murray and Wawrinka one after another, and showed the attitude of a **** of war without losing any blood. In this way, Nadal is slowly approaching full health and returning to the ranks of top confrontations.

and!
This is London, this is the year-end finals. It is different from the Grand Slam competition. The atmosphere of the entire competition is slightly different. Meeting top players on such a stage will be a new experience, and it will be even more exciting. What's more, the "new" indoor hard surface here is.
From every angle, from every level, this is a game not to be missed.
As far as Gawain himself is concerned, the goal of coming to London this year could not be clearer.
champion? Year-end number one in the world?
Of course, there is no doubt about it.
However, in Gao Wen's view, whether he is ranked first in the world at the end of the year or champion in the year-end finals, these are all extra rewards. The real focus is the game itself. Every game at the O2 Stadium is worthy of commemoration and attention. From Wawrinka to Murray, I look forward to every game.
Now, it's Nadal's turn.
The expectations have further increased, especially after the first two rounds of the group stage, it has reached a new peak.
At the moment, Gawain's only concern is Nadal, and that's all.
"Rafa is a special player, no matter what state, no matter what situation, he will give it his all. Maybe the energy is not the same, but there is no doubt that every time he steps on the court, he will give it his all. Give yourself 100% to the game, no reservations and no retreat.”
"I'm looking forward to meeting Rafa on clay again, but obviously there's still some time until the clay court season, but it's the same at the O2."
"It has nothing to do with the group qualifying order. I'm just looking forward to playing against Rafa. I think I will take a good rest tomorrow and prepare for the day after tomorrow."
The words are indeed official and have nothing new, but the sincerity and happiness in the words are real. This is what Gawain thinks.
Here, Gawain made no secret of his excitement.
On the other side, Nadal rarely showed his humor.
"Can I say 'no'?"
This response also successfully made the reporters in the press conference room burst into laughter.
"There is no doubt that Gawain is a difficult opponent, but also a great opponent. Every encounter with him is a severe test."
"In fact, I'm also looking forward to this meeting."
"For now, Gao Wen, like Novak and Roger, is one of the best players in the world. I am still trying to find my best game, so the match with Gao Wen is A test is also a challenge, and I am ready to return to a confrontation of this level and intensity."
"I'll do my best."
"I just beat him yesterday afternoon and I think that should give me some confidence."

yesterday afternoon?
Reporter, UU Reading www.uukanshu. ｃｏ“Practice match?”
They didn't remember that Gao Wen and Nadal had a practice match yesterday afternoon.
Nadal said seriously, "No, PES. I beat his Manchester United team with Real Madrid."
Then, pause.
Nadal also added, "3:0", raised his right hand and stretched out three fingers, smiling broadly.

The whole audience burst into laughter.
Nadal was also very happy because his little prank was successful, and his mouth and eyes were full of smiles. Although he could not compete with Gawain, the press conference room was also full of joy. This once again allowed reporters to witness Nadal and Gawain. The friendship is truly well-deserved.
When social networks and news media are paying attention to hot spots, gimmicks, and topics, whether it is Gawain or Nadal, they still focus on themselves—
This is not easy.
After all, the year-end finals are the highest stage for Huashan fencing, not to mention, a series of historical records, including the year-end world number one, are also ready to go. Just imagining it will make your blood boil. I am afraid no one can be an exception.
However, Gao Wen still blocked out all the excitement outside the court and focused on the game and himself.
Soon, Gawain's wisdom was proved.
Because the situations that reporters were worried about, those “possibles,” those “in case,” those “special circumstances,” did not happen. The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Please use your little hands to exit the reading mode. Thanks
