Chapter 1477 Out of Focus

Pu Lan stared at the screen quietly, his heart forgetting to beat.

Gawain raised his head high, chest out, and walked towards the net step by step. He was exhausted and could hardly lift his feet. He could feel the weight of a thousand pounds with every step, but he still moved forward with a faint smile on his face, feeling relieved.

But...but, looking at Gawain's smile, the brighter it is, the more lost he feels. The stubbornness and pride in his bones refuse to face failure dejectedly, but he still can't hide the reluctance in his eyes.

Then, Gawain came to the front of the net and stopped. He did not disturb Wawrinka who was celebrating with his fist clenched and roaring wildly. He just stood there and watched quietly, giving the stage and the spotlight to Wawrinka.

The next second, the live camera on TV switched to focus on Wawrinka who was celebrating wildly with excitement. The entire Philippe Chatrier Stadium stood up collectively, and the huge applause burst out with incredible energy.

The mountains roared and the sea roared.

The crowd was excited.

Plan, stunned——

She tried to find Gawain in the picture, even though she knew it was futile. If the live camera was not pointed at Gawain, she would not be able to see him.

But she is still searching, she is still searching in every corner of the picture, she is still searching among the boiling crowd.

I quickly found the remote control and searched for Gao Wen on different sports channels, including Sky Sports, Eurosport 2, Australia's Channel 9, NBC, etc. Then, after a round trip, I returned to the French TV Sports Channel...

No. No. Still no.

All TV stations were broadcasting the scene of Wawrinka celebrating with his blushing face and bright smile, but no one paid attention to Gawain who lost the game.

Puran becomes uncontrollably sad.

Why? When a game is over, all the halos, all the praises, all the attention are focused on the winner, but no one cares about the loser's joy or sorrow.

There is no doubt that this was a wonderful match, which may even surpass this year's Australian Open final and become the most worth replaying match of the whole year. Such a peak showdown requires perfect performances from both players and it cannot be achieved without either player.

Wawrinka won beautifully, but without Gawain's counterattack, his confrontation and his struggle, the final victory would not have been so satisfying and inspiring, and would not have won the applause of the audience.

However, all the spotlight belonged to Wawrinka.

So, what about Gawain?

Plum wanted to see Gawain, immediately, right now.

My heart swelled uncontrollably, my longing was overflowing, so overwhelming and so hot that my chest began to ache slightly and I could no longer control it.

So, Plan threw away the remote control, picked up the key, and rushed out the door like a tornado. She wanted to see Gawain more than ever before.

Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom! The Philippe Chatrier Stadium was in a state of earth-shaking commotion, with rolling heat waves rushing around in a mighty manner. Looking around, one could see faces that were excited, agitated, and even distorted.

This is also their carnival——

They were so honored to be able to witness this game in person. Although all attention was focused on the showdown between the giants in the upper half before the game, there is no doubt that this showdown brought unexpected surprises.

Two challengers, two new Grand Slam champions, two leaders who subverted the era of giants, made their voices heard with unparalleled performances: In addition to the giants, there are many more matchups worthy of attention and expectation. The ATP is ushering in a wonderful era of a hundred schools of thought and a hundred flowers blooming.

In particular, the two players defeated Federer and Nadal respectively to advance to the semi-finals, shattering people's dreams of a meeting of giants. After the quarter-finals, they used such a game to prove that they deserved the victory and presented a battle that was no less exciting than the "Federer-Nadal Final".

Today, at the Philippe Chatrier Stadium, they became witnesses.

No one is exempt from this.

Including the staff in the player lounge, Djokovic and Murray——

They have been waiting in the wings, warming up for the third time, and witnessing the game being pushed to a whole new level time and time again.

They understand better than the audience and fans how fierce the competition is, and they also understand the status of the two players better. The two exchanged glances. No matter who faces Wawrinka in the final, it will definitely be a fierce battle, but before that showdown comes, they need to decide the winner first.

The high morale and boiling blood burned in the depths of his eyes. The peak duel between Gawain and Wawrinka also inspired the energy of both of them.

Since the two challengers who are not good at clay courts have teamed up to present such a wonderful duel, how can the two giants who remain undefeated in the clay court season show weakness? They are also ready.

They both looked towards the court again, and both of them had entered combat mode.

On the court, Wawrinka had finished celebrating and jogged towards the net, where Gawain could be seen waiting with a smile on his face.

Sincere, pure and frank.

Those eyes were so clear and clean, the celebration was genuine without a trace of impurities, and he even took the initiative to open his arms and make a hug gesture.

Wawrinka quickly stepped forward and also opened his arms to give Gao Wen a big hug.

Wawrinka tried to say something, but found that words could not express his emotions at all. Thousands of words surged in his chest, with excitement, emotion, happiness and regret.

Unfortunately, there can only be one winner in a game, but Gawain’s performance in this game deserves all the praise, admiration and respect from the bottom of his heart.

But what should he say?

Wawrinka just hugged Gawain tightly, then patted Gawain's back hard with his left hand, patted him hard, paused, and patted him again.

Everything is implied.

"Congratulations! You deserved this win, God, you played really well."

Gawain's voice came to my ears, with a hint of ridicule, but I could still feel the sincerity in his words, the unwillingness and loss were hidden at the end of his words.

Wawrinka opened his mouth, but swallowed the words back again. No words could accurately express his feelings at that moment.

So, Wawrinka hugged Gawain tightly again, without opening his mouth or saying anything, just hugging him quietly, using his actions to convey the most sincere and purest respect from the bottom of his heart, for Gawain and for this game, he was very honored to be a part of this contest.

Perhaps the spotlight falls on his shoulders, but he will never forget the opponent who joined hands with him to complete this battle.

Because Wawrinka knows that they make each other better.

This mixture of different emotions weighed heavily on my chest and finally turned into a hug.

That’s all.
