Chapter 370: Mental imbalance
“Ouch!”
Wang Dalei was the first to follow the shouting. Amid the cheers and shouts from the entire stadium, he vigorously waved the five-star red flag in his hand, releasing his energy as if the dark blue figure in the center of the court was the Wolf King, and they responded to the Wolf King's call with a hundred responses.
Then, all the other Chinese fans around Wang Dalei stood up one after another, unable to control their emotions any more, and started howling together.
“Ouch!”
Such a childish and simple way of cheering, placed at this moment, in the Arthur Ashe Stadium, is not at all out of place. Not only is it not out of place, but it also bursts out with an incredible passion, sweeping across the stadium.
The sounds are twisted into a rope.
Other local New York fans also gradually noticed the sound wave, and one by one they also started howling. In a blink of an eye, the Arthur Ashe Stadium was roaring. The overwhelming energy continued to turn like a hurricane, and as they shouted, their hearts began to surge.
And then? Qiao Wangsheng couldn't control his emotions and typed "Ouch" in the bullet screen dialog box and sent it out.
Soon, Qiao Wangsheng discovered that he was not the only one. The entire barrage was completely blocked by a dense wall of "Awooo", and even the picture could not be seen.
Even if they were not at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, every viewer watching the live game could connect with each other and deeply feel the surging heat.
Tough! Powerful! Wonderful! Domineering! Wonderful!
Gao Wen conquered the audience and won fans with his performance. Who could refuse such a rising star ?
“Ouch!”
“Ouch!”
The whole audience roared!
Although Australian fans were still cheering for Kyrgios at the top of their lungs, they were soon drowned out by the enthusiastic cheers at the Arthur Ashe Stadium. No one noticed the yellow anymore. They were just drowned in the endless roar and let themselves wander in it.
In the third set, after a full 63 minutes of tough competition, Gao Wen saved three set points in a row, won five points in a row in the final stage, and reversed the game to win!
The big score is “2:1”, Gao Wen is leading!
Kyrgios, who lost the third set, didn't seem to have any special reaction. He completely ignored the celebrating Gawain and the crazy fans. He just asked the referee for bathroom time, left the court with two rackets and went to the bathroom.
Staff directed Kyrgios to the bathroom, with tournament staff supervising him all the way.
However, after Kyrgios entered the room through the player passage, he raised his racket high and smashed it hard on the ground in the corridor without waiting for the door to close.
One! Two! Three! Four! Five! The staff following behind were startled by the sudden situation and quickly retreated back, watching Kyrgios's behavior from outside the door.
In a blink of an eye, the racket was smashed into pieces and completely shattered.
But this is still not the end.
Kyrgios then picked up the second racket and continued to smash.
One! Two! Three! The racket was twisted into a knot again. Kyrgios was sweating profusely, and foam could even be seen splashing out of the corners of his mouth. He was panting heavily, and his gloomy expression seemed to finally ease a little.
Lost five points in a row?
He actually lost five points again? It was crazy enough that such a humiliating thing happened once, but now it happened a second time? How could it be possible!
How is that possible!
He had an absolute advantage, but he lost five points in a row and just handed over the victory of the third set? Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Kyrgios looked at the two rackets that had been completely scrapped, and a murderous look burst out in his eyes.
The game is not over yet, of course the game is not over yet. He still has endless anger that needs to be vented. How can the game end?
Later, many people knew that Kyrgios had a bad record and that it was not the first or second time that he had played passively. It was common for him to lose with a score of "0:6" or "1:6" even though he had the ability. Naturally, they thought that Kyrgios's ability to withstand pressure was too weak.
This is a fact.
But Kyrgios has another side. If this is a game he wants to win, he can grit his teeth and fight all the way to the last moment of the fifth set - he has won many games in five sets in his career.
Therefore, the point has never been whether he can do it, but whether he is interested and in the mood.
Kyrgios was clearly in that mood tonight.
It was one thing to have his head shaved by an unknown college player in a charity exhibition match, a shame he knew, but it was another thing to be defeated by an unknown wildcard player in a night match at the US Open at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

The whole world was watching, and he once again lost five points in a row. If he lost the game like this, I'm afraid that guy would have to look down on others for the rest of his life.
He couldn't lose. He refused to lose.
It's a Grand Slam tournament, best of five sets, and the game isn't over yet, so anything is possible.
A very important little detail can show Kyrgios' determination: If he just smashed his racket, why would he ask for a bathroom break?
Because according to the rules of tennis, if there is any violent behavior on the court, a warning will be given.
In simple terms, throwing rackets or smashing facilities on the court is prohibited, but why do so many players still throw rackets without being warned? In the final analysis, the penalty scale is in the hands of the referee, who can understand that players have negative emotions that need to be vented. After all, they are ordinary people, so the referee has a yardstick in his heart, when to pretend not to see and when to control the situation.
Kyrgios knew that the referee was against him today, and if he continued to smash his racket, he would probably not be able to avoid a second warning.
Moreover, Kyrgios had a lot of anger that needed to be vented, and he didn't know how extreme he would be, so he avoided the public eye in advance.
From this point, it can be seen that Kyrgios has retained a bit of rationality and is ready for the fourth and fifth sets.
Kyrgios, like a bloody god of war, turned around and returned to the court.
Gawain and the referee were very surprised, because Kyrgios's bathroom break was only less than 20 seconds and he was already back? It takes more than 20 seconds to walk from the court to the bathroom, right? Did Kyrgios waste a bathroom break? Or did he just take care of his physiological needs at the door of the corridor? Although it was unclear, Kyrgios's behavior was within the rules, so no further attention was paid, and the fourth set started soon.
This time, it was Gao Wen who served first.
But the fourth set had just begun, and Gao Wen could already feel the abnormality coming towards him.
