From the perspective of performance and system, Gao Wen's clay court season and grass court season were indeed fruitful and worth celebrating.

But in Gao Wen's opinion, compared with these numbers, the real gains are those invisible and intangible things, an experience, an experience, an adventure -

Opening a brand new door! This was something he had not been able to experience in his previous life, a different view and style of the tennis world.

Clay tennis and grass tennis are still tennis, but they are not the tennis that Gao Wen knows. The different applications and presentations of technical characteristics on different venues are indeed unfamiliar and fresh.

From rotation to bounce to power, it not only shows the different characteristics of tennis itself, but also the different styles of players' techniques, which is very interesting.

Maybe tennis is about speed and power, but it would be a mistake to think that tennis is just about speed and power, just like Formula One.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Formula One is pure speed and passion; only by truly understanding it can one know that racing is also related to control, judgment, calculation, timing, etc. Beyond absolute speed, this event also has a mysterious and magnificent world, which is not that simple.

The same is true for tennis.

Of course, players can apply their hard court skills to clay and grass courts, and sometimes it will work; but if this is the case, tennis will lose a lot of its fun and will never open another door to a whole new world.

At least, that's what Gawain thought.

Although the clay and grass seasons have ended, Gao Wen's understanding and digestion have just begun, and he still needs some time to chew.

Taking all factors into consideration, Tobias and Sampras reached a consensus:

With no other events scheduled for the entire month of July, they need a vacation.

That’s right!

A small part of the reason is that, just like in March, the ITF and ATP reached an agreement to take advantage of the short gap between major tournaments and squeeze the Davis Cup into July.

From July 17th to 19th, the second round of the Asia and Oceania region competition is about to start, and China will go away to challenge the second seed India.

The winner of this game will enter the World Group play-offs to compete for the qualification to advance to the World Group next year.

If China can beat India, it will be their second time to enter the World Group play-offs since 1990.

There is no doubt that Gawain is the center of attention.

At that time, Gao Wen will play as the number one singles.

However, the Davis Cup event only lasts for one weekend, with at least one singles match and at most two matches. The intensity of the entire competition is very limited, so there is no need to worry too much; but considering that Gao Wen has just finished a high-intensity clay and grass season, it is particularly important to adjust the schedule to combine work and rest.

It was for this reason that Tobias and Sampras hit it off and announced a short vacation after Wimbledon.

All in all, it's actually just three weeks, but it is extremely precious in the compact and intensive tennis schedule.

It just so happened that Gao Wen really needed this kind of time to digest the experiences of the past three months.

Meanwhile, Gawain's Wimbledon trip came to an end. He left London immediately and crossed the Atlantic to return to New York.

Before the vacation officially begins, he needs to shoot next season's promotional advertisements and posters for Nike, as well as three magazine interviews and two magazine cover shoots.

Despite losing the Wimbledon semi-finals, Gawain's commercial value continued to rise off the court, and Nike revised its business plan and launched a comprehensive layout.

Over there, the Wimbledon tournament has entered its final climax, with singles and doubles finals in full swing, and the audience is looking forward to witnessing the birth of history again.

First, the women's singles competition——

Serena Williams faces the challenge of young rookie Muguruza.

Although this is the first time that Muguruza has reached a Grand Slam final in her career, this "post-90s" player undoubtedly has the ability to challenge the world No. 1 and has proved it in actual competitions.

The two players have met three times in their careers, all in Grand Slam tournaments. Although Serena Williams leads with two wins and one loss, Muguruza's upset victory over Serena Williams in the second round of last year's French Open was her masterpiece; and at the Australian Open earlier this year, Serena Williams also won a hard-fought three-set victory.

In this rematch, Serena Williams' serve, which has not been adjusted to its best condition this year, may become a breakthrough for Muguruza to subvert the game.

“6:4”, “6:4”.

At the end of the game, Serena Williams missed two consecutive serve games, but in the end she still defeated her opponent in straight sets.

The queen of the ball is still the queen of the ball.

This is Serena Williams' 21st Grand Slam title, and at the age of 33 years and 289 days old, she also became the oldest Grand Slam champion in the Open Era.

At the same time, this is the second time that Serena Williams has achieved the "Serena Grand Slam" in her career. Since last year's US Open, she has won four cities in a row and won all the Grand Slam titles. When the WTA was briefly in turmoil and chaos, the queen once again unified the country and reached the top to defend her dominant position.

After the big four in the men's singles defended their glory, Serena Williams once again proved that the "Serena era" in the women's singles is not over yet.

Secondly, the men's singles competition——

History has changed slightly, but not completely.

In his previous life, Djokovic defeated Federer in four sets and won his ninth Grand Slam title, fully ushering in his first peak period.

Everyone said that Federer was back to his best, but in front of Djokovic, Federer was passive throughout the game. The last impression he left on people was in the second set, when he saved seven set points and won the set at "12:10" in the tiebreak; however, he was ultimately unable to create more threats.

In this life, the five-set battle with Gao Wen in the semi-finals did consume Federer's physical strength, and Djokovic widened the gap invisibly; but on the other hand, it also stimulated Federer's ambition, and his confidence and state climbed to a new height, and the game was different.

"6:7(6)", "7:6(10)", "6:4", "4:6".

In the first four sets, the two players were evenly matched, and neither could completely widen the gap. The intense, exciting and breathtaking game was very intense.

Finally, the game entered the deciding set.

However, it was obvious in the deciding set that Federer was running out of energy, while Djokovic was getting braver and braver, gradually taking the initiative.

Although Federer still relied on his experience and willpower to maintain the balance of the game, he was ultimately unable to create more waves in Djokovic's serve. Instead, he was frequently in danger in his own serve. Facing the best player in the world at receiving serves, his serve was severely restricted.

In the deciding set, Djokovic broke Federer's serve twice in a row in the final stage, completely destroying his opponent with a continuous shock wave and taking away the victory.

"3:6", Federer in front and Djokovic behind.

The championship finally belongs to Djokovic, who successfully defended his title.

After failing in the finals of Melbourne Park and Roland Garros this year, Djokovic finally made a breakthrough at Wimbledon.
