After the match between Zhang Huasong and Djokovic, the media around the world quickly released news flashes to broadcast the results of the match to the readers who did not watch the live broadcast.

The focus of the report was, of course, on Djokovic's halfway exit from a record sixth Grand Slam.

And Zhang Huasong's promotion, in addition to the joy of the Chinese media, was regarded by other foreign media as an accident, a fluke, and a bargain.

Australian media: "Australian Open Men's Singles 1/4 Finals, No. 3 seed Djokovic withdrew due to physical exhaustion, Zhang Huasong unexpectedly advanced to the semifinals!"

Chinese media: "Zhang Huasong defeated No. 3 seed Djokovic to reach the semifinals of the 2009 Australian Open Grand Slam, creating a new history of Chinese men's tennis, and maintaining the best record of Chinese tennis Grand Slam with Zheng Jie of women's tennis. 》

Stars and Stripes media: "Djokovic retired midway through his sixth Grand Slam, a rarity in tennis!"

American media: "Djokovic's tennis is so good that even Federer has said that he is sorry for himself, but if he can't restrain his off-court activities, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the heights of Federer or Nadal." 》

German media: "Zhang Huasong, a tennis beginner who doesn't even have ATP points and world rankings, actually reached the semifinals of the Australian Open, does he want to replicate the miracle of winning the world championship in more than two months after entering track and field in 2007?"

Overseas Chinese media in Southeast Asia: "The king of track and field, Zhang Huasong's first tennis Grand Slam: he is not here to learn, he is here to win the championship!"

Serbia: Many of Djokovic's compatriots or fans who did not watch the live broadcast saw Djokovic retire for the sixth time due to fitness problems in the middle of a Grand Slam tournament, the highest honor in tennis, and the feeling of hatred is really indescribable.

"Oh my God, Xiaode has retired again!"

"We're going to see you defend your title, and you run away?"

"Serbian genius, when will you grow up?"

"At 22 years old, when will Djokovic get his attention on the ring?"

……

In addition to Djokovic's compatriots and fans, other fans also expressed regret and incomprehension for Djokovic's repeated withdrawal from the game.

"If I had his talent, I would at least rush to the first place in the world!"

"Yes, he hasn't even reached the number one in the world, he eats, drinks and has fun everywhere, and his ideal is to be the third in the world?"

"Hate iron doesn't make steel!"

……

Some industry experts have come forward to analyze that Djokovic's tennis talent is no less than that of Nadal and Federer.

But if he doesn't restrain his off-court life and strengthen his physical workouts, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to reach the heights of Nadal and Federer.

As for Zhang Huasong's promotion, many people have the opinion that "he is really lucky".

If it weren't for Djokovic's lack of physical strength, many people felt that Zhang Huasong might not necessarily advance to the semifinals.

Djokovic is the defending champion after all, and he is very familiar with the hard courts of the Australian Open, and Zhang Huasong's lead does not mean that Djokovic has no way to fight back.

In the course of the match, Djokovic also defeated Zhang Huasong in one set, and Zhang Huasong failed to win all 3-0 easily as in previous rounds.

It can be seen that Zhang Huasong is at most about the same strength as Djokovic, and he does not have an overwhelming advantage.

If Djokovic's fitness is fine, it's really hard to say who will die. Many believe that the more experienced Djokovic can reverse Zhang Huasong to win.

Zhang Huasong's promotion really has the element of picking up cheap by luck.

And when all the men's singles matches in this round are over, many people think that Zhang Huasong's road to the Australian Open can be over.

After all four men's singles quarterfinals, the 2009 Australian Open men's singles semifinals were all released, namely Nadal, Verdasco, Zhang Huasong, and Federer.

The Australian Open organisers deliberately staggered the seeding divisions.

No. 1 seed Nadal is in the first zone, No. 4 seed Murray is in the second zone, No. 3 seed Djokovic is in the third zone, and No. 2 seed Federer is in the fourth zone.

If the top four seeds make it to the semi-finals, the semi-finals will be a draw between the top half of the zone 1 seed and the 2 seed and the bottom half of the zone 2 seed against the 3 seed.

Nadal has been in excellent form from the start of the Australian Open, reaching the semi-finals with a score of 3-0 and no set in the first few rounds, including the quarter-finals.

However, Murray in the second zone unexpectedly capsized in the fourth round and was defeated by No. 14 seed Verdasco and exited early.

After Verdasco's victory over Murray, he continued to work hard to defeat the No. 5 seed Tergasson, who was ranked higher than him, in the quarter-finals to reach the semi-finals.

Verdasco will face Nadal in the semi-finals for a ticket to the final in the top half.

However, although Verdasco has defeated players ranked higher than him one after another, he has a very small chance of defeating Nadal, who has been in good form, in the semi-finals and entering the final.

In the bottom half, Federer, the No. 2 seed in the fourth division, seems to have been a bit slow to heat up, not playing very well in the first few rounds.

In the previous round, it was a 3-2 reversal after losing two sets before it struggled to advance to the top 8.

However, Federer seems to have come back from a hard-fought battle in the previous round, and in this round of quarter-finals, he comfortably defeated eighth seed Del Potro 3-0 on aggregate.

Moreover, the scores of the three sets of Federer and Del Potro's quarterfinals were 6-4, 6-0, and 6-0 respectively.

Zhang Huasong's opponent in the semifinals is the tennis superstar who has remained the world No. 1 for many years and is recovering in form.

Not only Federer's years of accumulation, but also Federer's current recovery state have made countless people more optimistic about Federer.

And Zhang Huasong, the junior tennis brother who relied on Djokovic to withdraw halfway and picked up a cheap luck to advance, may be difficult to pass Federer!

If Federer defeats Zhang Huasong and meets Nadal in the final, it will be a war between the world No. 1 and the world No. 2, and the absolute pinnacle showdown.

Undoubtedly, many people are looking forward to such a summit showdown!

Of course, Zhang Huasong's fans, overseas Chinese compatriots, and some neutral viewers who want to see the miracle of the dark horse still look forward to Zhang Huasong continuing his miracle journey, cutting down the world's third, world's second, and world's first all under the horse, and reaching the podium of the highest honor in tennis.

In any case, when the game reaches the semi-finals, it has almost attracted global attention!

Moreover, the semi-finals will not be played at the same time, but separately, and countries around the world can broadcast the two semi-finals live at staggered times, so that no one is missed.

With Nadal's form, it should not be difficult to beat his opponent Verdasco in the semi-finals to advance to the final.

Then, Zhang Huasong and Federer, who will get the ticket to the final in the second half of the region, meet Nadal in the final, and compete for the first Grand Slam title of the year, has become the biggest attraction on January 30.
