MTL - Match Point-Chapter 1329 venue dispute

Sunday, May 24th.

Philippe Chartier Stadium.

The first game, Halep VS Rodina.

In the second game, Federer VS Alejandro - Farah (Alejandro-).

In the third game, Vekic VS Caroline-Garcia (Caroline-Garcia).

In the fourth game, Tsonga VS Christian-Lindell (Christian-Lindell).

After the schedule was arranged, everyone was stunned.

Putting aside Halep's opener for the time being, but what about the follow-up schedule?

First of all, Federer was actually arranged in the second game instead of the last big axis. The French Open did not hesitate to choose the local darling Tsonga as the end of the full-day event—

In other words, in front of the host players, Federer also stood aside.

Moreover, Tsonga entered the center court as the 15th seed, which also means that some of the top eight seeds in the second half of the game on the first day of the game were squeezed out of the center court.

this…

Second, what happened to the second women's event?

Vekic is an unseeded player, and Garcia is the No. 31 seed. Because Garcia is the host player, they entered the center court and directly defeated the 2008 champion and the current top ten player in the world. Qi squeezed out, is this really okay?

However, when people look at the schedule for the second game day, it is no surprise that-

A first-round match between wild card players and qualifying players. Both players were unknown or even heard of their names, but because it was a civil war between two French players, the result was directly arranged for Susan- Lenglen Stadium, so that Azarenka and Dimitrov were both squeezed to the first court.

shock!

Although people have long been accustomed to the schedule of the French Open, they were still shocked when they saw such a venue arrangement.

Great, really great, worthy of the French Open!

What rules, rankings, and popularity, all stand aside in front of the host players.

Therefore, when people saw the other schedules on the first day of the event, the surprise and shock were not so strong, but they still couldn't help but complain:

Gawain, entering the Susan Lenglen Court, was scheduled for Game 2.

In addition, Wawrinka was squeezed to Court No. 1, which was also the second game.

Everyone, dumbfounding—

Two Grand Slam champions, is this the treatment?

In stark contrast, Kei Nishikori's game also entered the Susan Lengren Stadium, and because it was against a French player, he was in charge of the big axis.

Of course, Wawrinka was eliminated in the first round of the French Open last year and performed poorly; Gawain landed at Roland Garros for the first time in his career, and his prospects are unknown. From this perspective, it seems understandable that the two players were squeezed out of the center court. But does this schedule really meet expectations?

Especially Gao Wen.

Currently ranked second in the world, with the highest championship points, two Grand Slam champions, and chasing the undefeated record of a career Grand Slam; at the same time, he was also the champion of the Paris Masters last year, and has a good reputation in this city audience base.

It was very, very unexpected not to enter the center court; as a result, there was no position for the main axis at the Susan Lenglen Stadium?

Is this really good?

and!

Taking a step back, the distribution of players on the three match days also seems to reveal an uncomfortable embarrassment—

Federer, Gawain, Wawrinka, debut on the first day.

Nadal, Berdych, debut the next day.

Djokovic, Murray, Ferrer, debut on the third day.

It is clear at a glance that the first and third days are too crowded. It is clear at a glance that the arrangement of the court needs to face severe challenges. As a result, on the third day at the Philippe Chatier Stadium, Murray and Djokovic will appear together. In the case of the second appearance, everything is for the host player to give way.

Otherwise, with a little adjustment, the schedule can obviously be more even and balanced. For example, moving Gawain or Wawrinka to the Philippe Chatier Stadium on the second match day, is this more in line with the current popular desire?

But the French Open refused, because the second match day needed to arrange important matches for many French players such as Simon, Monfils, and Cornet.

Look, this is Roland Garros.

Of course, it is undeniable that the four major Grand Slams will face controversy in the schedule. Djokovic has protested more than once about his venue arrangement, and even had conflicts with the Wimbledon organizing committee; however, this year's French Open The schedule of the competition obviously aroused more heated discussions among netizens.

There is a hustle and bustle on social networks.

"No. 2 in the world, the winner of the past two Grand Slams, it turns out that Susan Lenglen's shaft is not worthy, hehe."

"Gao Wen: I'm sorry, am I not worthy?"

"I swear, I don't like Gawain, but I have to admit, this schedule is a mess."

"Gowain was ridiculous enough at Susan Lenglen and Wawrinka was on court one, sorry??? Am I missing something?"

"Who can tell me what happened to Susan Lenglen's second game the next day? Wild card vs. qualifier?"

"As expected of the French Open."

"Tsonga lies down."

"What about Vekic and Garcia? Who are they to beat Ivanovic? Come on, a Grand Slam is a Grand Slam champion, okay?"

There was a heated discussion.

In the hustle and bustle of topics, Gao Wen once again became the focus.

Unlike the US Open who is unknown and the Australian Open who is burdened with expectations, when he came to the French Open, Gao Wen's world ranking and status in the tennis world have undergone tremendous changes, and he has found his place in the fiercely competitive men's tennis step by step~www .novelbuddy.com~ and further impact.

In the battle of "Big Four VS Challengers", Gao Wen deserves to be the leader and looks forward to continuing to prove himself at Roland-Garros.

Naturally, people have different expectations and concerns about Gao Wen.

Previously in Melbourne, Gao Wen's schedule caused a lot of discussion. He didn't enter the center court until the fourth round against Nadal, but at that time it was just a discussion, not a controversy; It was obviously noisy, and Gao Wen could feel that Gao Wen was winning more and more support and affirmation in every aspect.

Not only netizens, but professional sports reporters also said,

"Gauwen deserves the treatment of Philippe Chartier."

"The schedules of the race organizers clearly need to be rethought."

"For Gao Wen, this is disrespect."

But at this time, as the person involved, Gao Wen seemed very calm and composed—

He could clearly feel Sampras' aggression, but it was Gao Wen who comforted Sampras instead.

"Peter, respect, you need to win it by yourself, not rely on lip service to say it."

"In Paris, I haven't proved myself yet, they have made a point, so, for me, it's actually a good thing."

"You should know that my favorite challenge is the impossible."

As he said that, Gao Wen's eyes brightened up, full of excitement and high-spirited, full of confidence.

Then, Sampras laughed, couldn't help shaking his head, and made a gleeful joke.

"I think they seem to have messed with people they shouldn't have messed with."
