MTL - Match Point-Chapter 1296 ups and downs

Throughout the match, Gao Wen did not hold back and tried his best, but he could still feel the gap—

Judging from the score, in the two games, Gao Wen lacked a little performance in the key points and key rounds, and finally lost the game; but in fact, not only the key points, but also the lingering pressure throughout, from the combat method to the tactical layout Then to the shot selection and so on, you can feel the impact in all directions.

Undoubtedly, on clay, Gao Wen is a newborn who has just started. This opportunity to learn in front of the master is really rare.

In the future, if someone says in front of Gao Wen that Federer's failure to beat Nadal in the French Open is not enough, or that Djokovic is useless to lose to Nadal in the final of the French Open for two consecutive years, etc., he will be the first one. disagree-

It is definitely not that they are not strong, but that Nadal is too strong.

When Nadal is on clay, his game is truly on another level, even if he's not in the right shape.

No wonder!

Earlier, Graf said that this year is the first clay court season, and there is no need to act too hastily, and you should take a long-term view.

Sampras and Agassi deeply agree.

It's not that the coaching team doesn't believe in Gao Wen's ability, but that the clay's own characteristics are very complex and changeable, requiring patience and even more carefulness.

Here, the most taboo is to be eager for success, but also to encourage seedlings to grow. If you want to usher in breakthroughs and transformations in red clay, time is very necessary.

In fact, Gao Wen's growth rate is already very gratifying, but standing in front of Nadal, the gap is immediately highlighted, and he needs to continue to hone his skills and tactics—

It is not only training, but also not only time, but also competitions, a large number of competitions, accumulating experience from actual combat, and continuing to learn from victories and failures. There is no shortcut to accumulating experience. You must stand on the clay by yourself. It has to be played out one game at a time.

For Gao Wen, it is indeed a pity to stop in the semi-finals, but he steadily advanced to the semi-finals all the way, continued his steady performance in the clay court season, and won the chance to face Nadal on clay, even if the final result was a loss, or even failed to win a set Under the circumstances, Madrid still benefited a lot.

then.

It is a pity that the two finalists of Barcelona, ​​Gao Wen and Kei Nishikori, both stopped in the semi-finals and watched Nadal and Murray meet in the final.

At this time, a heated discussion and focus arose:

because!

This is the first time since Djokovic and Nadal met in the final of the Rome Masters last year, and once again witnessed the final of the two giants.

shock!

From last year to this year, the picture that was once common and the prestige of the giants is indeed facing a full-scale impact, and it is getting worse and worse. From all aspects, the era of giants seems to be on the verge of collapse. This season "Big Four VS Challengers" The theme is even more vigorous.

However, after fifty weeks, at this year's Madrid Masters, the two giants once again stood firm, withstood the impact and successfully joined forces.

Crash, cheers.

The giant is back.

The reason why the "Era of Giants" is so brilliant and exciting is, in the final analysis, because:

The four giants can always continue to complete progress and transformation amid challenges and shocks, improve their combat effectiveness, and then bring the game to a new level again. Antagonism, excitement, etc. are interpreting a new chapter in tennis. Let's work together Witness the golden age of tennis.

Now, as the impact of the Challenger Alliance is getting more and more fierce, they have once again proved this point—

Never underestimate the growth potential of the giants. They will endure shocks, experience troughs, and face injuries, but they can always be reborn from nirvana, and then regain the initiative with a stronger and better posture, and take this Sports confrontation to a whole new level.

nice!

ATP's men's tennis is really good-looking. After a full year of being attacked by the Challenger League, the giants sounded the clarion call in the clay court season.

Despite Djokovic's absence

, but the final of the Madrid Masters was still very lively, even detonating a frenzy far beyond expectations.

There was a lot of discussion.

rejoice.

There's a party going on under the blue sky in Madrid.

finals.

On the one hand, Murray's state has fully recovered and returned to the peak level. The world ranking has quietly surpassed Nadal and came to fourth place.

On the one hand, Nadal continues to struggle. Although the lower limit still maintains a super high level, the upper limit is still not able to reach the best. In the strong collision of giants, there is a little lack of magic power, and the clues can be seen at critical moments. The distance is the best. The king of clay is still far away.

In the end, Murray defeated Nadal in straight sets. The scores of the two sets were "6:3" and "6:2".

Previously, Murray faced Nadal in six matches on clay, without a win. This is the first time Murray defeated Nadal on clay in his career. With a wave of nine consecutive victories on clay, he reached the top of Munich and Madrid. Become a strong contender at Roland Garros this year.

Obviously, this is also something that Djokovic did not expect:

Although Gao Wen failed to continue his upward momentum, Murray built his confidence step by step and issued his own manifesto in the clay court season.

To be precise, Murray's impact, appeal, threat, etc. are stronger than Gao Wen's. Now Murray has finally completed the adjustment and ushered in nirvana. This also means that the pattern of this year's clay court season has changed again, and With the deepening of the clay court season, there are more and more unknowns.

Of course, this is one of the best parts of competitive sports:

A hundred schools of thought contend, and a hundred flowers bloom; all heroes compete for the throne, and there are many suspense.

The most important thing is to stimulate each other's full potential, and constantly challenge the limit between you chasing after me.

Only in this way can the Huashan Lunjian battle at the top of the Forbidden City be truly exciting, and the enthusiasm of the people who eat melons can be fully aroused.

In the bustling place, all eyes are focused on Rome. This will be the last masters of the clay court season, and it will also be the last important event before Roland Garros kicks off. Next week, the French Open qualifiers will start soon. It means the opening of the second Grand Slam of the year.

This time, the staff is neat—

With Djokovic's return as planned ~www.novelbuddy.com~ This also means that among the top 20 players in the world, only Raonic is absent due to injury, and the other one is not missing.

It is precisely because of this that the Rome Masters has added a little different meaning.

This can not only be regarded as the last preview before the arrival of the French Open; it is also the neatest time for high-ranking seed players in this year's clay court season.

So, who can be proud of the crowd?

Perhaps, the situation of winning the championship can become clear after the end of the Rome race.

However-

A strong cold wind from Siberia crossed the border, all the way south, from Monte Carlo to Madrid, and finally came to Rome in the Apennine Peninsula.

Constant upsets and frequent accidents continued the chaos and turmoil of the clay court season.

If people want to get a glimpse of this year's Roland-Garros pattern through Rome, then... Maybe everyone can get a different answer.
