Almighty Athlete Chapter 92: Group opponents
"Federer's decisive set to send egg force to capture Nadal, end the 81-game winning streak of natto clay"
"A great athlete needs a great opponent. On May 20th, local time in Hamburg, Germany, the third part of the French Open warm-up match and the last important warm-up match in the Hamburg Red Clay Masters Finals, "The Bean Wars" The 11th episode was staged. In the end, the world's first Federer lost the first set, swept the opponent in the second two sets, and beat Nadal 2-6/6-2/6-0, ending Nadal's 81 clay court games. The victory is also the first time Nadal has been defeated on clay. Both men will rest for a week in preparation for the French Open competition that will start 7 days later."
This is a report from a domestic media, followed by some details of the description of the game, the report is relatively pertinent.
Reports from foreign media are not so satisfactory. Many media have even started the quiz of the French Open champion.
A British media wrote: "Federer finally defeated Nadal for the first time in the sixth clay court match. The two recorded a record of Federer nearly 4 wins and 7 losses. However, it is worth noting the last set of the two. Federer broke three times in a row and defeated Nadal 6-0. I think Federer must have found a way to deal with Nadal. If the two meet in the French Tennis Finals on June 10, Federer wins I'm afraid the chance will be bigger!"
This British media is obviously more optimistic about Federer.
The French media is more optimistic about Nadal, after all, Nadal has been king here twice in a row, and his audience base in Paris is larger than Federer.
"Although Federer defeated Nadal in the Masters Hamburg yesterday and won the championship, it cannot be ignored that the two players played on clay, and Federer is still at an absolute disadvantage with 5 losses and 1 win. But recently The fact that all five matches were in the final also tells us-Federer can only be called the "second clay master". In yesterday's game, we saw Nadal try to suppress Federer's backhand with his forehand, no Federer has too many forehands to hit the ball. In this clay court, Federer's backhand is clearly difficult to beat Nadal's strong forehand. Federer is full of unprecedented strength for the French Open this year*, and he has been from the clay court season At the beginning, he will be assisted by coach Roche. The Australian old man will stay with Federer in Europe for training and training throughout the clay court season. But even so, the author is more optimistic that Nadal will complete the French Open three consecutive championships."
Zhang Guan read several news reports about the French Open final. It was discovered that the entire European media was talking about Federer and Nadal. In addition, Djokovic was the most talked about by the media. His excellent performance a few months after the Australian Open and the quarter-finals of the French Open last year were regarded by the media as having the potential to win the championship. It is worth mentioning that Djokovic has risen to the sixth position in the latest world ranking published by ATP. Princess Almighty: Stealing a prince and giving birth
"It's all about Federer, why haven't I seen my news. I haven't appeared on the field for a few months, and the media has forgotten me habitually?" Zhang Guan searched for a long time and finally found an article about himself. Report.
This is a handwritten article about the former tennis professional selection named Gordons. It is also a prediction of the French Open championship, and some of them mention Zhang Guan.
"Zhang Guan successfully won the Australian Open a few months ago. It also represented the world track and field king who made a successful transformation, but since the Australian Open ended, Zhang Guan has not participated in any tennis competitions. We did not see Zhang Guan at the Indian Wells Masters, Miami Masters, Monte Carlo Masters, Rome Roma, and the Hamburg Grand Masters."
"I once suspected that Zhang Guan was suffering from injuries, but according to reliable reports, Zhang Guan has begun to cooperate with former French Open champion Zhang Depei, and in the past few months, Zhang Guan has been training. Although we still have I don't know the specific situation, but I learned from the organizers of the French Open. Zhang Guan has determined that it will not miss this year's French Open."
"Even though his new coach Zhang Depei was the youngest French Open champion, I still don’t think Zhang Guan is a French Open champion candidate. My judgment is that Zhang Guan’s style is not suitable for clay court games Rhythm. In the Australian Open game, the fast serve of Zhang Guan is extremely threatening, but the ball speed on the clay court will be greatly slowed down; at the same time, Zhang Guan uses a lot of pre-net tactics in the Australian Open, but we all know that pre-net tactics are not Suitable for fighting on clay..."
Zhang Guan carefully read the entire report. The author of this report, Gordons, is not in the black Zhang Guan. It just made some corresponding analysis through the tactics used by Zhang Guan in the Australian Open game. It makes sense.
High-speed flat serve has always been a great scoring weapon for Zhang Guan, but on the clay court, the power of fast serve will be greatly weakened. The French Open's ace ball relies mainly on angle rather than speed. In addition, Zhang Guan's play in front of the net in the Australian Open is also not suitable for the playing field of the net. In Gordon's view. Both of Zhang Guan's two scoring weapons have been abolished, and the prospects of the French Open are naturally worrying.
"Wait until the French Open. Let you see how powerful the running and attacking methods are!" Zhang Guan looked at the watch: "How can I forget this thing, today's French Open match table should come out It’s been a few hours, and the match table must have been announced! I’ll meet Davydenko again in the round of 16 if there is no accident.” Go to college with the farm
In the four Grand Slams, the grouping position of the 32 seed players is fixed, but the seed players can only be met in the third round at the earliest, so now Zhang Guan is now most concerned about the opponents in the first two rounds .
Because he did not participate in any tennis match for more than three months, he was successively overtaken by Djokovic, Murray, Haas and others, and fell to the fifteenth position in the world, so he will be divided in District 2/4.
Zhang Guan clicked to open the French Open webpage. At this time, the grouping of the athletes had just appeared. Zhang Guan found its place in the 2/4 area quickly. But found that his opponent is an Asian name, nationality is South Korea.
“hyung-taik-lee, it’s Lee Hengze! That’s South Korea’s first in Asia and second. No, now I’m the first in Asia, then Li Hengze should be squeezed to third in Asia.” Zhang Guan thought for a while and found out I seem to know very little about Li Hengze, so I searched for Li Hengze's name~IndoMTL.com~Li Hengze, a veteran born in 1976, is 31 years old this year. The first time to win the ATP championship was in the 2003 Sydney Open, and the best result of the Grand Slam was the top 16 of the 2000 US Open. The current ranking is 42nd. Players of this level are no threat to me! "
Zhang Guan did not care about his opponent Li Hengze. A player who has been playing tennis for more than ten years and can only be ranked in more than forty, and has won only one ATP champion, in the eyes of Zhang Guan is basically no threat.
......
The first round of the French Open: Li Hengze vsZhang Guan, the men’s tennis Asian "first" battle! 》
This article in the Korea Herald introduced that Li Hengze will encounter Zhang Guan in the first round of the French Open. Subsequently, this article quickly aroused discussion in the Korean media and the public, and most of the discussion was "Li Hengze As long as you beat Zhang Guan, you can become the first person in Asian tennis!"
