With only four games lost in two rounds, Pansiqi had a smooth ride at the Grand Prix. Through these two games, he also has a general understanding of his current level, and it should be a rare opponent in China.

"Hey, Chinese men's tennis, the situation is really worse than expected!" For some reason, Pansic felt the weight on her shoulders suddenly become heavier.

According to the alien dog, the transformation of his own body is towards the goal of dominating the world tennis world. Judging by his current physical condition with one-third of his strength, Panci estimates that he can compete with the top 10 fighters in the world. As for solo tennis, you may have to further improve your physical strength.

But it's the level of the world's top 10 that is enough for Pansy to take advantage of when competing against domestic players. Until now, he has not felt any substantial confrontation at all. That is, the gap between the opponent and him is simply too great.

It can also be seen that the overall level of Chinese men's tennis at this stage is low, and it is no wonder that there have been several Grand Slams without any Chinese men's players.

"The overall level is so low, and there are no competitive players, it seems that the problem is in the talent training system." Pansic sighed. But now is not the time for him to think about the big picture, the competition is still going on, and he has to try to win his first national victory first.

Since Pansiqi's match took less than an hour, when he arrived at Lin Teng's playing venue, Lin Teng was still fighting to advance to the round of 16. However, looking at the score, Pansiqi felt a lot more at ease.

At this time, the scoreboard showed that Lin Teng won the first set 6:2, and the second set was already 4:0 ahead. Looking at the field again, Lin Teng's opponent has completely failed to keep up with the rhythm, and there seems to be a problem with physical fitness. It seems that Lin Teng's victory is only a matter of time.

Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, Lin Teng won the second set with a score of 6:1, thus defeating his opponent with a total score of 2:0, and following Pan Xiqi's footsteps into the men's singles top 16 of this Grand Prix.

The top two main players of the Beijing team were easily swept to advance, but the third singles was not so lucky. He was also not a seeded player, and he was unlucky to meet the defending champion Wu Di in the second round, the current first domestic men's tennis player. There was no suspense in the match, and the two sets were lost. Even ate one of the other party's duck eggs in the second set.

Although the singles match is over, Pan Xiqi and Lin Teng did not complete today's task, because the first round of doubles will start in the afternoon. Since both men were competing in doubles for the first time and did not have any rankings, they met the fourth seeds in the doubles of the tournament, a pair from Tianjin, in the first round, and I really don't know if it was their bad luck or their opponents' bad luck.

For the Pancicic pair, who are aiming to win the championship, who they meet in the first round is not their concern at all. As long as no one can suppress Pan Xiqi on the bottom line, then his original "Pan Position" play will be invincible.

Sure enough, in the first few games of the game, the Tianjin combination was dumbfounded. Before Lin Teng defended the net, Pan Xiqi's position of guarding the bottom line has not changed since the first point. The No. 4 seed, who thought he would be able to easily defeat his opponent in the first round, found that the two of them were seriously at a disadvantage in the bottom-line confrontation with Pan Xiqi.

What's worse is that although Lin Teng does not participate in the bottom-line confrontation, he has been squatting in front of the net, but he still brings strong oppression to the opponent. Because once the Tianjin combination does not return the ball in place and falls into Lin Teng's defensive area, then Lin Teng's fatal blow will be easy.

The Tianjin combination, which became more and more aggrieved the more they fought, did not give up their resistance easily, and once wanted to change the backward situation through the change of position. But. After experimenting with the front and back positions and the double-net tactics, they sadly found that they could not bypass the mountain of Pansiqi no matter what.

For example, their double-net tactics, who want to build the Great Wall in front of the net, are worn by Pan Xiqi's various fancy crossing balls that stick to the bottom line. In desperation, he had no choice but to turn his gun and concentrate on attacking Lin Teng.

But Lin Teng, who has an increasingly thorough understanding of the essence of "Pan's Position", will not easily let himself become a breakthrough for the other party. As long as it is not in place and uncomfortable balls, they will be put to Pansiqi behind him to deal with. Once he makes a move, it must be a one-hit victory, and the opponent will not be given any chance to make amends.

In this way, with Pan Xiqi's super bottom-line strength and Lin Teng's tacit cooperation, the No. 4 seed was like a trapped rat falling into a trap, and gradually lost the confidence to resist. Two 6:2, the Pansiqi combination made a good start to this doubles match.

Back at the hotel, Director Xiao and Coach Zheng were very satisfied with Pan Xiqi's performance today. Although one men's singles team was lost today, the strong performance of the top two main players still fully reflects the competitiveness of the Beijing tennis team in this Grand Prix.

After Coach Zheng affirmed Pan Xiqi and the others, he uncharacteristically put away his smile, and his expression looked a little dignified.

"Pansiqi, come here, I have something to say to you." Coach Zheng called Pan Xiqi to the side.

"What's wrong, Coach?" Pansiqi felt strange. Unexpectedly, what Coach Zheng said next made him feel crying and laughing.

"That's right, now that you and Lin Teng have successfully reached the top 16, the next step is to usher in an important battle to hit the top eight. You know, our Beijing team has not had two players enter the quarterfinals at the same time for more than ten years. Coach Zheng said excitedly.

"Although Lin Teng's opponent in the next round is also a seed, he is not as strong as Zhang Tianshuo, so I am still more relieved about his game. But your opponent is going to be in a lot of trouble. Coach Zheng put away his smile and said with some concern.

As soon as these words came out, it was Pansich's turn to be taken aback. In his opinion, the coach is very clear about his strength, and it stands to reason that there should be few invincibles in China. But now Coach Zheng suddenly expressed his unoptimism about his prospects, which had to make him feel very strange.

"I said, coach, what is my next opponent in the next round, and it actually makes you think like this? Could it be that the other party is a world celebrity? Or are the two masters of Zhang Ze and Wu Di? No, I remember that I had to meet them after the semi-finals? Pansiqi asked.

"Not really. Your opponent in the next round is Li Tianming of the Shanghai team. Coach Zheng replied.

"Li Tianming? Haven't heard of it. Is he powerful? ”

"If you want to say how powerful, it's not that much. He is currently ranked 10th in China, is the eighth seed in this tournament, and can be regarded as a master. It's just that there is still a big gap with those two top players. Coach Zheng explained.

"It's just an eighth seed, so you wouldn't make such a fuss, would you?" Pansic felt that the coach was a little confused.

"Hey, this Li Tianming, although he is not a top master in China, but for the male members of our Beijing team, he would rather meet those two bosses than touch him." Next, Coach Zheng introduced Li Tianming's grievances and hatreds with the Beijing tennis team to Pan Xiqi.

Li Tianming has been debuting for almost ten years now, and he can be regarded as an out-and-out veteran at the age of 28. In his career, he has not achieved too many outstanding results, even the number of times he has reached the semi-finals of domestic competitions is not too much. But he is such a slightly ordinary player, but he has the title of "Beijing Team Buster".

It turned out that since Li Tianming's debut, from the first time he played against the Beijing team members, to the present ten years, he has actually maintained a winning record. During this period, the main players of the Beijing team have changed several times, but no matter who it is, even if it is recognized as stronger than him, he will be inexplicably defeated in the game with Li Tianming. Not only that, but on several occasions, when the Beijing team was leading the score, they were suddenly injured for some reason and had to temporarily retire.

In the end, all the male players of the Beijing team felt that the Beijing team must have collided with Li Tianming, and was cursed by him, and gave him the title of "Beijing team nemesis". Otherwise, it really can't explain why the Beijing players couldn't snatch a victory from Li Tianming anyway.

"Xiao Pan, I didn't want to talk to you about this, for fear of affecting your mood. After all, I think that Li Tianming may not be able to reach the top 16 and become your opponent. But now that the wood is complete, I can only confess to you, so that you can be mentally prepared. Coach Zheng said patiently.

"I have no doubts about your strength, Li Tianming is definitely not your opponent. But after all, he injured several main players in the game with him before, and I have to say that it is really a bit evil. I'm afraid that if you are also injured at that time, the loss of our Beijing team will be great. "It turns out that Coach Zheng is worried about this.

"Coach, this is the most I've ever heard! What age is this, why are you still engaged in feudal superstition? Pansiqi felt like he had been struck by lightning.

"Well, I didn't believe it at all. But slowly, one team member after another lost, and it hasn't changed for ten years, so no one can't believe it. Coach Zheng sighed, and it could be seen that this incident made him feel very unhappy in his heart.

"Rest assured, coach, fate is used to break. Even if there really is that so-called curse, then I am the one who ends it with my own hands! Pansiqi didn't believe in this evil at all.

"Since you've said so, I'm relieved. But you must promise me that once you feel something strange in your body during the game, you must put your body first, and you can't be strong! Coach Zheng repeatedly admonished.

"Okay, I promise you, I won't force it." Pansiqi replied.

"'Beijing Team Buster', it's really interesting, let's see tomorrow whether this so-called curse is ineffective in my Pansiqi." When Coach Zheng said this, Pan Xiqi was obviously interested. Now he can't wait for tomorrow's game.
