Chapter 1840 Peak of Chaos



The chaos and turmoil in Flushing in 2015 continues.

On the sixth day of competition, four players including Vesely had to withdraw from the competition, continuing to refresh the data of this year's US Open withdrawal frenzy.

You know, we have entered the third round of the tournament, which is a rare opportunity for any player, especially in this year's all-out chaos, with the spots for the second week of the Grand Slam just around the corner. If it is not absolutely necessary, no one is willing to withdraw from the competition at this juncture.

However--

Sixteen people.

So far, sixteen people have withdrawn from the competition.

The sweltering hot weather is a severe test for every starting player, even surpassing the unpredictable weather at Wimbledon to steal the spotlight.

At the same time, the "mistakes" of the organizers of the US Open have also become the focus of criticism.

The outdoor temperature was as high as 33 degrees, and the ground temperature easily exceeded 40 degrees. The professional players were sweating profusely and their body temperatures soared during the intense exercise; however, the indoor temperature of the players' lounge was controlled below 16 degrees, and countless air conditioners were running madly towards the players.

The huge temperature difference caused serious physical discomfort, and many players showed cold symptoms.

Including Murray.

Even comparable to the flu.

The withdrawal frenzy is a superficial phenomenon. Behind it, there are influences of weather, injuries, and uncontrollable factors, but there are also human factors in the event. Amid the chaos and turmoil, panic-stricken anxiety is quietly spreading, and the already noisy and bustling Flushing is even more wrapped in a ball of restlessness.

In addition, there were a series of conflicts in the arrangements for race shuttles and the reservation of training grounds, and the lack of professionalism in the event organization made the situation even worse.

There are complaints everywhere.

Uneasy.

It was in this context that Gao Wen’s accidental injury made headlines.

The defending champion almost got eliminated in the first week of the Grand Slam, just a little bit short of being able to defend his title.

There is no doubt that this is the most significant news after Nadal's elimination.

Of course, Gawain's professional career is still too short and cannot be compared with Nadal. You know, after finishing this year's US Open, Nadal's magical record of winning at least one Grand Slam title for a full ten years in a row officially came to an end. Naturally, Gawain's magic pales in comparison.

However, from the perspective of impact, Gao Wen's distress is still powerful, sparking a wave of heated discussions on social networks.

After all, in the past four Grand Slams, Gawain's worst performance was the semi-finals. If he is eliminated in the first week of Flushing Meath, does it mean that Gawain's magical aura has completely dissipated?

US Open, champion.

Australian Open, champion.

French Open, semi-finals.

Wimbledon, semi-finals.

It is very clear after listing it this way. Gao Wen's performance is showing a step-by-step downward trajectory, and then?

Will the cliff-like decline stop at the third round?

Just by thinking about it, you can imagine how rampant those haters would be if Gawain really lost this game.

Of course, Gawain didn't.

However, the hate speech continues to be heard.

Apart from those lunatics who habitually accuse Gawain of faking an injury, many more haters still firmly believe that Gawain is on a downward spiral.

Two injuries in less than three weeks, this is a signal from the universe.

Perhaps, Gawain's magical aura has indeed lost its magic, and he will become an ordinary member of the tour and return to ordinary life.

The black fans are having a collective party.

In fact, not only brainless haters, but also professionals have given objective evaluations, and one of the views is not uncommon.

They believed that Gawain's body was protesting in this way, that after a year of continuous growth and development, it needed rest.

This is in line with science.

According to current professional tennis theory, Gao Wen's body is still a little thin, and he needs more muscle support. Otherwise, in the increasingly high-intensity top-level confrontations, his endurance and durability may drop faster, just like the continuous accidents in the past month.

It was indeed an accident, but behind two consecutive accidents, there was inevitability.

"After a year, it's time to expose such a crisis."

——That’s what professionals say.

It is conceivable that when people discuss the possibility of winning the US Open this year, Gao Wen's prospects become even bleaker. The continuous decline in the odds of winning the championship by bookmakers is the most intuitive proof of this.

This can't be considered a surprise.

Originally, Gao Wen's draw was loose at the beginning and tight at the end. The first half was relatively easy, but after entering the second week, he would have to face a series of tests. Now, his old injuries have not yet healed and he has suffered new injuries. His situation is even more worrying. Both his competitive state and physical condition are sending negative signals.

At the moment, the most direct thing is how is the ankle? At the post-match press conference, this matter undoubtedly became the focus of everyone's attention.

In response, Gao Wen said, "It's no big deal."

After a preliminary examination, it was found to be just a simple ankle sprain. After being bandaged and fixed, the ankle received sufficient support and did not deteriorate further. At the same time, he did not feel any pain in the second half of the game, and his movement was not significantly affected, which is why Gao Wen was able to persevere.

When the reporter asked whether Gao Hongli asked Gao Wen to withdraw from the competition, Gao Wen honestly affirmed that he had done so.

"Not only my father, but I myself have considered quitting the competition, more than once."

"I told myself that my career is still long. If I miss this year, there are still next year, the year after, and the year after that. We should look to the long term."

“But I still want to give it a try.”

"I don't like the idea of ​​retiring. It's a pity for my opponent, the audience and myself. Also, I don't want my first title defense to end with a retirement. Even if I lose, I want to hold on to the end of the game to show my respect."

Gawain is still the same Gawain, he has never changed.

Especially after experiencing this summer, from clay to grass and then back to hard court, this series of ups and downs has gradually revealed Gowen's characteristics both inside and outside the court, which has also become the direct reason for the surging "fighting" throughout the Arthur Ashe Stadium.

But this is not the end.

After the press conference, to be on the safe side, Gao Wen went to the hospital to take an X-ray to further confirm the situation.

"It's nothing serious. You can continue the game, just be careful and take precautions."

After receiving a detailed diagnosis and professional opinion, Govan fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Although no one wants to see injuries occur, this is good news in a bad situation and is worth celebrating.

Regardless of whether Gawain can go further, at least New York audiences can continue to see Gawain on stage.

Chaos, is that all?

No, of course not.

It would be naive to think this is the peak.

The so-called disaster often strikes a fatal blow when people think that this is the limit.

The chaos at this year's US Open began with Sharapova's withdrawal due to injury before the game. The ominous premonition spread, and after players such as Kei Nishikori, Nadal, Murray and Galen, it finally reached its peak on the night of the sixth day of competition.

Bang! With a muffled sound, it just happened.
