Chapter 1638 Everyone Is in Their Place

After the draw was released, people obviously did not expect such a matchup in the 2/4 area. Even if they expected Wawrinka, they did not expect Gasquet.

As mentioned before, Gasquet and Nadal were childhood friends and were known as young geniuses. After turning professional, Gasquet still performed well, ranking among the top ten in the world and becoming a representative of France's golden generation. However, Compared with childhood expectations, there is inevitably some gap.

This year's Wimbledon, after Nadal and Raonic were eliminated early, Gasquet seized the opportunity and stood out, returning to the top eight of Wimbledon again after 2007.

In Gasquet's career, the experience of the fourth round of a Grand Slam is very familiar. It has happened sixteen times, but the fourth round is a threshold.

As of this year's Wimbledon, he has only crossed this threshold in the 2007 Wimbledon and the 2013 US Open. Not only did he advance to the quarter-finals, but he also advanced to both the semi-finals. In the end, he unfortunately lost to Federer and Nadal respectively, but Still writing the highlight moments of his career.

Here, Wawrinka is looking forward to breaking his best record at Wimbledon and continuing his upward momentum.

On the other side, Gasquet hopes to advance to the semi-finals of a Grand Slam for the third time in his career and relive his old dream at the All England Club after eight years.

In this game, both players have opportunities.

Moreover, the collision of strong players in the "Challenger League" has completely continued the main theme since the opening of this year's season. In addition to the giants' duel, the quality of the competition has been comprehensively improved. There are more and more strong collisions and confrontations, which will increase the appreciation of tennis events. A level is indeed a good thing.

In the past, the youth storm showdown between Gawain and Dimitrov set off a frenzy on social networks. Now it is the turn of the backbone of professional tennis to prove with practical actions that the "Challenger Alliance" is not just a gimmick, it is indeed More breakthrough players emerge.

Who knows, maybe this game can bring surprises?

Zone 3/4, "Murray VS Gao Wen".

No need to elaborate!

After the draw came out, this was the match that deserved the most attention. The last two players indeed showed excellent competitive status and met in the quarterfinals.

Although professionals and fans generally believe that Murray should be able to win, how much trouble Gao Wen can cause, what role injuries will play, what context the game will take, and whether Gao Wen can seize the loopholes to create waves, everything remains. Worth paying attention to.

Among the four quarter-finals, this one is definitely the center of attention, and the show is on stage!

No need to exaggerate, the discussion heat skyrocketed.

Zone 4/4, "Federer VS Simon".

A little surprising, but not shocking.

Federer made an excellent draw and had a smooth journey, once again showing his demeanor as the King of Grass——

Since the first round in Halle, Federer has not been broken in the grass court season, holding 107 consecutive service games, showing an incredible competitive state, not inferior to any other competitor, and pointing his sword at Wimbledon. The 18th Grand Slam championship trophy.

1. Statistics related to serve data were officially introduced. Karlovic won the championship with 12 consecutive serve data; Isner maintained the 11th consecutive title; and now, Federer has reached the third position in history.

Federer is indeed born on grass.

Next, it gets interesting.

On that side, some people are optimistic that Murray will be crowned for the second time on home soil by virtue of the host country, while others are optimistic that Djokovic will regain his strength and break the decline of finishing runner-up in two consecutive Grand Slams to win the championship.

On this side, Federer kept a low profile under the aura of being the favorite to win the championship. He followed the steps and slowly revealed his superiority, showing his desire and confidence in the championship. There is no doubt that this year's hot serving state in the grass court season is the crowning of the Swiss King. the most important weapon.

And Simon's emergence cannot be regarded as an upset. He defeated Berdych in straight sets in less than two hours, showing his top competitive status. This difficult player can perform in the world on different venues. The ability of the top ten was enough to make Berdych lose his temper.

Grinding, entangled, sticky, this is Simon.

Perhaps, for fans, Simon's tennis lacks appeal, and he may never reach the Grand Slam; but no player on any surface can take Simon lightly. To be precise, no one wants to inspire Simon. Defensive counterattack at its best.

In the next game, Simon will continue to pester Federer. For the king of grass, this is also a duel that needs to be vigilant.

Area 1/4, Mesozoic showdown.

District 2/4, one-on-one confrontation.

Zone 3/4, focus showdown.

District 4/4, a conflicting confrontation.

It is very, very regretful that unlike last year when the new generation fully emerged, there is only one young player in the top eight this year, Gao Wen. It can be clearly felt that the young generation has hit a wall after their rapid rise, and they all fell into a short-term downturn; relatively speaking, the challenge The Alliance of Players has emerged in an all-round way.

Despite this, all four duels are interesting to watch, including the 1/4 area where there is the least suspense. It also adds some uncertainty because Djokovic has played for three consecutive days. This should also be the three major games so far this year. The top eight lineup is the best and most exciting in history, and the fans are excited.

However!

The real focus after the game was Berdych.

It's not Gawain, it's not the three giants, it's not the rejuvenated Cilic or the breakthrough Gasquet, it's Berdych who lost.

A reporter asked an idiot question, "How do you feel after this game? Are you confident about the next game?"

This is the first question at the press conference.

So much so that Berdych, who had just lost, was confused, but the always polite Berdych still suppressed his emotions and asked politely, "I'm sorry, can you say it again?"

As a result, the blind reporter actually repeated it again and asked Berdych to look forward to the next game.

The good-tempered Berdych changed his expression on the spot.

In the end, the host intervened and ended everything before the situation got out of control.

But Berdych still found it unbelievable. He lost the game with a score of "0:3" and couldn't find his form throughout the game. He was very aggrieved and depressed. The reporter even rubbed salt in the wound, which was like a slap in the face. Degree.

"Did he do it on purpose?"

Berdych said.

After the press conference, the Wimbledon Organizing Committee also apologized to Berdych for failing to control the situation at the scene in time.

Although the media always likes to provoke and cause trouble, such behavior really lacks respect. Later, many reporters also defended Berdych.

Unexpectedly but not surprisingly, the media still caused trouble before the quarterfinals were about to kick off; however, off-court topics could not steal Wimbledon's shine after all.

The top eight players are in their respective positions, ready to explode——

but!

How will the venue be organized and who will take center court?
