"3:2" defeated Istomin, "3:0" defeated Mahut, and "3:1" defeated Troicki.
But in the blink of an eye, Gawain had already marched into the second week of Wimbledon with the momentum of three consecutive victories, causing a burst of exclamations -
This also means that Gao Wen has made it to the second week in all four Grand Slam debuts in his career. This feat has once again written new history.
Not only young, but also comprehensive:
In different venues and competitions, he has demonstrated excellent adaptability and strong competitiveness, which is truly eye-catching; more importantly, we should not forget and no one will forget that this is only the first season of Gao Wen's professional career.
Looking back at his sudden emergence at the US Open last year, the shock, astonishment and exclamations do not seem so overwhelming, because Gao Wen continues to create miracles and refresh people's cognition time and time again.
It seemed like it was no big deal to win the Grand Slam championship for the first time in his career.
Who can predict Gawain's next move?
Maybe, just like no one expected his ascent to the top of Flushing Meadows or his breakthrough at Melbourne Park, could Gawain also surprise at Wimbledon? Even without much evidence, just a possibility and an imagination is enough to make people excited.
There is no doubt that with his victory over Troicki and advancement to the fourth round, Gao Wen has become the hottest star and the focus of attention of all media and netizens.
The sight of the massive crowds at the post-match press conference was truly breathtaking. The Wimbledon Organizing Committee, which claimed to be fully prepared, was also a little flustered. Looking at the continuous influx of reporters into the press conference room, the staff of the organizing committee clearly could not control the situation.
Instead, it was Gawain who was at the center of the storm and remained the calmest. He took the initiative to help maintain order at the scene.
"calm."
"calm!"
"Don't worry, I'm not going to run away. There's no need to rush. If you want to attack, I believe you still have enough time."
"I am not a moving target. At most, I am a static target. Everyone can enter in an orderly manner and shoot in an orderly manner. I believe everyone has a chance."
A joke successfully calmed the commotion and chaos of the reporters on the scene. Laughter could be clearly heard rising and falling in every corner. Despite this, one could still see the bustling crowds of people standing there, crowding the press conference room like a dense forest.
Yu Jia stood at the door of the press conference room, staring at the entrance that had no gaps at all, dumbfounded.
He just went to the bathroom and was excluded? How long did it take, one minute? Thirty seconds?
What happened? Yu Jia: ??? Then, Yu Jia noticed that he was not the only one who was abandoned. Looking around, he could see one or two unwilling figures jumping outside the crowd, trying to peek over the crowd to see the grand scene inside. They knew they could not get in but were still unwilling to give up.
A French reporter with short curly light brown hair noticed Yu Jia's look, turned around and smiled, "Who can refuse Gao Wen?"
Yu Jia was slightly stunned, and then a smile bloomed on his face.
In the press conference room, order was finally restored. Reporters were forced to give up their seats and chose to stand one by one. However, they had no time to complain. They stood on tiptoe to find a place to stand in the narrow space where people were shoulder to shoulder. Questions were already pouring towards Gao Wen impatiently.
"... before arriving at Wimbledon, you had never won two matches in a row on grass, and now you've won three matches in a row going into the second week at the All England Club. Did you expect your performance to be like this?"
"For today's match, how do you evaluate Victor and your own performance? When do you think the turning point of the match came? Victor's performance in the first set was perfect. How did you adjust during the break between sets? What is the difference between this match and the previous two rounds?"
"After these few matches, do you think you have adapted to the grass court? What do you think of your prospects at Wimbledon?"
He babble on and on, throwing out a long list of questions.
——It’s not a scandal.
Of course, it is conceivable that there are still reporters who are curious about Gao Wen's scandal, because Lawrence appeared in the audience stands again today, with a calm and generous attitude and did not avoid suspicion at all. During the breaks between games and sets, the reporters and the audience's flash lights never stopped, and the reporters could not help gossiping.
But we have to admit that there are countless hot topics at Wimbledon this year. Compared with the off-court gossip, the hot spots on the court are what people are most concerned about.
Gao Wen sat behind the microphone with an obedient look on his face, quietly waiting for the reporter to pour out all the questions, but he did not answer them immediately. Instead, he counted them one by one on his fingers. His serious look really made people laugh.
"…Sorry, there are too many questions. I need to make sure my head hasn't exploded. If my brain explodes, it will be hard on the staff. We have already caused enough trouble for the event organizers, and I don't want to increase their workload, so we need to sort it out."
Ha ha!
There was a burst of laughter in the press conference room.
As expected, Gawain is Gawain. He can always joke calmly, especially with that serious expression which adds to the humor. The urgency and tension at the scene also eased a little, and the tense feeling of shoulders touching shoulders and faces touching seemed to relax a little.
"Of course, I've definitely thought about it, and it would be hypocritical to say I haven't."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"I have a very impressive performance this year, with excellent results in Melbourne and Roland Garros. When I came to Wimbledon, I naturally had expectations. I couldn't control my thoughts, just like a child imagining that planting a sun will yield a large field of sun. I also look forward to it..."
Ha ha.
The reporters' chuckles interrupted Gawain's words, but Gawain kept smiling, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and continued speaking without being affected.
"I'm also looking forward to performing well, after all this is the All England Club."
“But I had to control myself and stay focused.”
"I don't have time to think about the second week of the tournament. I have to focus on the game in front of me and take it one step at a time. Maybe you have forgotten it, but I still remember that four days ago, I was only one point away from being eliminated."
Ha, looking at Gao Wen who was making fun of himself and wiping the non-existent sweat from his forehead, the reporters burst into laughter again.
Gawain shrugged lightly without any concern.
"That was a wake-up call to make sure I was focused on every game that came my way."
“It’s the same today.”
"Victor is a dangerous opponent. He has had a great grass season and was very competitive. He showed his ability in the first set."
"I don't think the outcome of the first set was a fluke or an accident. Victor deserved to win the first set. He was the better player and deserves all the respect."
Frank, sincere, and respectful, Gawain is still the same Gawain.
