Chapter 872 Interference Factors
Boo!
Boo, boo, boo!
The boos were overwhelming and filled the entire stadium, but the situation was really unclear and no one could accurately tell who the boos were directed at?
Booing the referee?
Seriously dissatisfied with the referee's decision? After all, the second set was already over before Kyrgios got angry, and the subsequent warning and punishment seemed unnecessary.
Booing Gawain? Did the home fans think Gawain's deliberate provocation had angered Kyrgios, and that he was using unfair means outside the court to try to win the match?
Booing Kyrgios? It is not only condemning Kyrgios's dangerous moves, but also condemning Kyrgios' attitude towards the game. This is obviously a smear on the Australian Open.
Boo the organizers?
Was the security presence too much of a fuss? This farce is likely to become the biggest melodrama of the Australian Open this year. Is it really okay?
It is difficult to tell exactly who the boos are directed at.
But what is certain is that Kyrgios once again thought that this was directed at him, and like a howling dog looking at the moon, he raised his chin and roared loudly.
"Shut up!"
Even when facing the home fans, this unruly genius continued to curse.
"Shut up!"
The booing did not stop, but became more intense.
However, the boos did not last long. After a brief distraction, the home fans were pulled back to the ground by emotions of despair and sadness.
Then, reality finally dawned on them.
The second set is over.
“7:6 (3).”
Gao Wen, wins.
Kyrgios had two consecutive set points in his serve game, but unfortunately he failed to convert them. As a result, the game was deadlocked at 3:3 in the tiebreak, but Gawain scored three points in a row and won the victory neatly.
Especially in the last three points of the tiebreak, Gao Wen truly showed the style of one of the top eight in the world and proved his ability with an absolutely tough attitude.
In sharp contrast to Kyrgios's loud and shouting, Gawain, who is usually good at roaring and celebrating, was calm in the second set, especially in the tie-break. His calm, confident and winning performance firmly grasped the initiative, and the atmosphere of the game quietly changed.
At the Margaret Court Stadium, the home fans were demoralized.
Unlike watching live broadcasts on TV, being on the scene allows them to feel the atmosphere of the game more clearly and deeply. The tension and excitement put their hearts to the test all the time. After the continuous roller coaster experience, their energy and physical strength are severely depleted.
On the verge of suffocation.
This farce after the inventory was over, destroyed the defense line both mentally and physically.
Although no one can accurately determine who the boos are directed at, and perhaps even the fans who booed themselves cannot be sure whether others are on the same side as them; what is certain is that there is a lot of disappointment hidden in it.
Disappointment for Kyrgios.
Judging from Kyrgios' performance, he is still that spoiled child, doing whatever he wants, getting whatever he wants, and finally concentrating for a while, but when things don't develop as he expected, he falls into the mode of shirking responsibility.
Losing the second tiebreaker was like a wake-up call.
The Australians at the scene felt a little dizzy and couldn't recover for a while, and then they realized that the third set might also be difficult.
Kyrgios is really not up to the task.
Even a small number of fans could be seen leaving the stadium one after another.
They couldn't bear to watch any longer.
Of course, objectively speaking, the game is not over yet. Kyrgios can still win three sets in a row and make a super comeback. The suspense of the outcome has not yet been decided.
Agassi once said a famous saying: There is no timer in a tennis match. Before the winner is decided, everything is possible.
Whether it is football or basketball, these games have time limits. No matter what, the game always needs to be decided within the time limit, even if it is overtime.
But not in tennis.
In the past, there were long sets to decide the winners, so Isner and Mahut played out a score of 70:68 at Wimbledon.
Now, there is no long set decision, but there is still a tiebreak/tiebreak, and in the tiebreak, the score also showed a surprising score of "30:28".
Opportunities always exist objectively.
It is also because of this that unless the players themselves give up the game, the outcome of tennis will always be suspenseful.
However.
The home audience couldn't bear it any longer. It wasn't so much that they had no confidence, but rather that they had no strength, energy, or enthusiasm. They really couldn't hold on any longer. Watching the game was a torture and their hearts couldn't take it anymore.
A feeling of despair, fatigue and boredom, more violent than anger, gradually spread across the Margaret Court Stadium.

Although only a very small number of fans left the stadium, the whole atmosphere was different from the previous two sets.
The fans are still shouting and cheering.
"Go! Nick! Go!"
A small group of fans, about a dozen or twenty people, covered in oil paint, cheered happily and energetically, without feeling tired at all. Their shouts circled loudly above the stadium, but they could no longer find the passionate atmosphere of the first two sets. Instead, their voices seemed particularly lonely.
Then, the third set began.
Kyrgios hasn't given up.
The problem is that he was always angry, even furious, so he started to exert force blindly, as if tennis was the murderer of his father, and he exerted force unreasonably.
The problem is that tennis is not a sport in which you can gain absolute advantage through strength. Exerting strength recklessly is useless except for wasting energy. Instead, it may cause the ball to go into the wrong point of impact, either into the net or out of bounds, or go awry.
In fact, it can be seen that this is Kyrgios's purpose. He just needs to vent his anger. If he doesn't vent it, he might explode.
It would have been very bloody at Margaret Court Stadium, and it was unclear whether the broadcaster would be able to continue the live broadcast.
After waiting for his anger to be vented a little, Kyrgios' spirit began to collapse. It was obvious that he could not concentrate. The frequency of interference from off-court factors on him increased. He even looked for trouble and had problems with the referee and the audience every now and then.
Even the cheers of the fans seemed to be a distraction. It was obvious that Kyrgios was becoming more and more irritable, and his complaint index was soaring.
He even had a direct conflict with the first row of fans at the back of the stadium, and he fought back after the other party shouted an incomprehensible word.
"Shut up!"
"Shut up, I don't need you to tell me how to play!"
The fan seemed frightened and shut his mouth tightly, but Kyrgios, who won the verbal battle, still couldn't regain his concentration.
Naturally, the accuracy of the shots dropped and the number of unforced errors soared like a rocket.
However, the real key issue is that Kyrgios's prediction has very serious problems.
