Almighty Athlete Chapter 142: The top seed of the US Open
"Zhang Guan's hands are very hot. Just now that layup, Wang Shipeng and Sun Yue interfered with him at the same time, he can both score goals. This is not like the performance of an amateur basketball athlete. I think it is the national team. Player, the layup is nothing more than that!" Liu Wei said.
Zhu Fangyu lowered his voice: "There is less gold, our national team has a few pounds or a few pounds, you and I don’t know yet? The domestic players’ layups are not as fierce as Zhang Guan. This layup is completely It’s American style, it’s kind of like..."
Zhu Fangyu lowered his voice and said a name: "Wade!"
"Wade of the NBA's "Flash"? You are too exaggerated! If you can't see someone who can break through quickly, just say Wade!" Liu Wei said.
Zhu Fangyu shook his head: "Wade and Zhang Guan are about the same height. Wade does look stronger, but considering that Zhang Guan is a sprinter, the muscles are definitely stronger, maybe the difference in weight between the two is not very big Big, Zhang Guan's confrontation will not be worse than Wade, Zhang Guan is definitely not weaker than Wade in speed and explosiveness, and even stronger, and the Zhang Guan layup is very accurate! Really similar to Wade's breakthrough ."
Liu Wei thought for a while, it seemed that it was really the case, he nodded silently, and then said: "This Zhang Guan guy, it’s a pity not to practice basketball! If he comes to practice basketball, maybe it will become Our Chinese "Flash"! At least at his speed, don't worry about being forced by the audience."
Zhu Fangyu continued to whisper: "Will we persuade Zhang Guan to come to our men’s basketball team to play basketball?"
"Let Zhang Guan play basketball, it's unlikely! People are in the world's best flying people in the presence, why do you want to play basketball!" Liu Wei continued: "Even if people are willing to come, playing basketball is not twice How can it take five or six years to train a qualified professional player! Even if it’s the CUBA college student’s league, how many of them can enter the CBA? Like us, which was not a sports school when I was a kid Just practice basketball."
"Dayao and I said that Zhang Guan is different from us. He is a real genius! You see Zhang Guan changed from track and field to tennis, and took three consecutive Grand Slams, and now ranks first in the world. Well, maybe he came to play basketball and it would take three or five months to reach the level of professional athletes!" Zhu Fangyu continued: "It will not be successful. After finishing the game, let's ask, and you will be the one. Two meats! And I think Zhang Guan likes to play basketball.
......
"Is it really not going to hit basketball?" Zhu Fangyu confirmed again.
Looking at Zhu Fangyu with a serious face, Zhang Guan smiled and shook his head. He knew that Zhu Fangyu sometimes had a temper tantrum, but he was actually a very enthusiastic person.
"It's okay to ask me to play basketball, but I don't want to start from the bottom. I have to be the main force of my national team!" Zhang Guan said half-jokingly.
"The main force of the national team? This is not what I said!" Zhu Fangyu didn't seem to hear Zhang Guan joking, he sighed, and then said happily: "Well, when do you want to play two hands basketball, just Come find me!"
Wang Shipeng, who was packing things on the other side, pressed his DV, but nothing happened.
"It seems to be dead!" Wang Shipeng threw DV directly into the bag.
......
On August 25, the World Athletics Championships were held in Osaka, Japan, and Zhang Guan had already flown to New York in the United States at this time. In preparation for the US Tennis Open that began on August 27, it would naturally not go to Osaka for the World Championships in Athletics.
Without the participation of Zhang Guan, the national track and field team lost a lot of color, but also won several gold medals. Fortunately, Liu Feiren was strong enough. He won the men’s 110-meter hurdle and achieved the Olympic champion and the World Championship champion , The first person in the world record holder. This is also the only gold medal of the national team in this World Championships.
However, Tian Xie and even the top executives of the sports team are not satisfied with the performance of the national team. The development of domestic track and field has been smooth and smooth over the years, so both the official and the private sector have high expectations for this track and field world championships. But a gold medal is obviously far from everyone's expectations. If Liu Feiren's gold medal is not a shame, it is estimated that the field management center will definitely be roasted by the media on the fire.
And of course Zhang Guan did not pay attention to this year’s World Championships. He had already flown to New York to participate in this year’s US Open.
The US Open and Australian Open are hard grounds, but the two hard grounds are different. The Australian Open is a plastic hard ground, which is also the most common tennis court in China; the US Open is a concrete hard ground The ground is commonly known as the cement field.
Of course, the cement field of the official game can't just be barely paved with a thin layer of plastic covering or color paint. The nature of this covering determines the height and speed of the ball rebound. The ball speed of the cement field is slightly higher than that of the plastic field. Due to the smooth surface, the ball will rush forward after landing, and there will be no obvious pause like the clay field. However, the vertical component of the kinetic energy of the cement field will have a great loss, so the ball will not be very high, which will make the ball bounce relatively flat after landing on the cement field.
This kind of cement field, although not as fast as Wimbledon, is still very suitable for playing in front of the net. At the same time, the violent serve can also be more destructive on the cement ground. After taking the four championships on the U.S. Open ~IndoMTL.com~Sampras, Federer was the undoubted ruler. Since 2004, Federer has won the US Open for three consecutive years, and this year is when Federer hit the US Open four-game winning streak.
......
Zhang Guan is currently ranked first in the world, so it is undoubtedly the number one seed player in the US Open. According to the rules, the position of the seed player is fixed, so this time Zhang Guan is definitely the first position in the quarter 1/4 .
In the hotel, Coach Zhang pointed to the computer screen and said: "The US Open group is out. The schedule may be a bit difficult for you!"
Zhang Guan came to the computer and stared at the group while saying, "This time I am the number one seed! The first time I participated as the number one seed, didn’t I mean that the number one seed was taken care of? My promotion The road should be very smooth!"
"The first few rounds were very flat. You must not have encountered the seed player in the first two rounds. At the end of the fourth round, you most met No. 13 seed Gasquet, the Frenchman, your defeat." Coach Zhang motioned Zhang Guan to scroll down the page, and then said: "But in the quarter-finals, you may meet No. 5 seed Roddick! He is the 2003 US Open champion and his service is extremely powerful. The Davis Cup semi-finals set a serve of 245 kilometers per hour, which is also the fastest service record in the world. Roddick’s style of play is very suitable for the US Open, and Roddick is also an American. Here is his home court."
"Oh?" Zhang Guan's face suddenly showed a happy look.
"Why? Are you looking forward to playing with Roddick?" Coach Zhang asked a little puzzled.
"No!" Zhang Guan shook his head: "I am looking forward to breaking the world record! Especially in front of the world record holder." (To be continued.)
