Chapter 180: The Signing Form is Out

Back at Sister Wang's house, Pan Xiqi was pleasantly surprised to find that Lu Yanxun had also arrived. However, the first round of the US Open will officially start in two days, and today should be the time for the players to arrive in New York on a large scale.

After Lu Yanxun learned the news that Pan Xiqi had successfully advanced to the main competition, he had an expression on his face that he knew this for a long time. In his opinion, if Pancic's strength can't make it out of the qualifying round, it will be hell.

After three days of fierce fighting, Panci could finally have a day of rest. Tomorrow will be the day of the draw for the US Open, and the biggest tennis stars will also participate in various promotional activities organized by the organizing committee to expand the influence of the tournament. As for players like Pan Xiqi and Lu Yanxun, naturally there is nothing to do, just wait for the draw to be released, so as to formulate tactics for their opponents in the first round.

Taking advantage of this rare leisure time, Pansic slept a lot. By the time he woke up, it was nearly noon. Out of the bedroom, Sister Wang had already prepared a large table of sumptuous lunches, and Lu Yanxun was sitting at the dining table at this time.

Seeing Pan Xiqi appear, Lu Yanxun hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, and said to Pan Xiqi with a teasing face: "I didn't expect that I could sleep lazily in my thirties, I really envy you." I wake up at 7 a.m. every morning and can't sleep at all. ”

Hearing Lu Yanxun's words, Sister Wang in the kitchen immediately smiled and said, "Yanxun, what are you, when you reach my age, you won't be able to sleep at five o'clock." So it seems that Xiao Pan should still be young. ”

After listening to the conversation between the two, Pan Xiqi also felt that he was a little too late, and an embarrassed expression suddenly appeared on his face.

Seeing that Pan Xiqi was a little embarrassed, Lu Yanxun hurriedly smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you." I still have business to tell you. After saying that, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and handed it to Pansiqi.

"Just as you were sleeping, the draw for this year's US Open came out. You and I are in the three-quarters zone, but don't worry, if we meet, we will have to wait until the quarterfinals, and this possibility is almost non-existent. Lu Yanxun said with a smile.

"Three-quarters of the district? So where did the cow natto go? Pansic asked his top concern.

"I was about to tell you this gossip. Natto, as the top seed, guards the quarter. The cows are seeded No. 3 and placed in the two-quarters zone. Both of these superstars have been placed in the top half, which means that if all goes well, they will meet in the semi-finals. And the biggest driver of this situation is British player Murray. ”

"Murray? What does this have to do with him? Pansiqi asked.

"It's a big deal. He was seeded No. 2 in the tournament and was placed in the quarters. It turned out that there had been rumors before the tournament that he might withdraw from the US Open due to injury, but until the draw came out in the morning, there was still no news of his retirement. However, just now, his team released the news that Murray is out of the US Open. Lu Yanxun patiently explained.

"Well, he's not competing anymore. It seems that this US Open, I can't meet him and Xiaode. Pansiqi was a little surprised to hear the news.

When Cow and Natto missed most of the 2016 season due to injury, Junior and Murray almost teamed up to dominate the tennis world. In the first half of the year, Xiaode had unlimited scenery, won the Australian Open and the French Open, and completed the great cause of the Grand Slam. In the second half of the year, Murray not only won the Wimbledon championship again with a terrifying winning streak, but also snatched the world No. 1 throne from Xiaode.

Who knew that in the 2017 season, the situation would change dramatically. With the comeback of cows and natto, these two kings have snatched back their lost ground little by little. The cow won the Wimbledon double at the Australian Open, while Natto won the French Open for a record 10th time. In contrast, Xiaode and Murray have completely lost their luster from last year due to the impact of injuries.

Now, with Murray also confirmed to withdraw from the US Open, the top two favorites to win this year's US Open undoubtedly fall on the cow and natto. Therefore, these two kings had to meet in advance in the semifinals, which made countless fans feel quite regretful.

"That's the problem. Murray did not retire early or late, but chose to retire after the draw was released, which led to the possibility that Federer could not get the No. 2 seed in time and thus enter the bottom half. For this matter, there was a quarrel on the Internet, and many fans were accusing Murray, saying that he did it on purpose, so that the two kings met in advance. Lu Yanxun shook his head as he spoke, and it seemed that he seemed to agree with netizens.

"Hey, what is this. For those heavenly kings, sooner or later they have to meet each other, in fact, they are all the same. Besides, they won't meet until the semi-finals, so it's still a question of whether they can meet. Pansizzy was quite open to this question.

"It makes sense. By the way, my first-round opponent is the No. 25 seed, Russia's Khachanov. ”

"The No. 25 seed, the ranking is quite high, it seems that your luck is not good." Pansic said with some sympathy.

"On the contrary, this is a good deal for me. Although this Khachanov is a seeded player, he is only 21 years old this year, and his competition experience is still a little more tender than mine. At the Heineken Open in January, I just won him once. Although it is very thrilling to win, it can be regarded as having a certain psychological advantage for him. Speaking of this, Lu Yanxun had a deep smile on his face, and it seemed that he was indeed very satisfied with this first-round opponent.

"Looks like I'm going to congratulate you. What about my first-round opponents? Pansiqi swiped on his phone for a long time and couldn't find his name.

"You're the No. 28 seed, South African Cannon Anderson. Don't look at Anderson's seeding ranking lower than Khachanov, but he is much more famous and is a frequent visitor to the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam. So in my opinion, you've hit a tough bone this time. This time it was Lu Yanxun's turn to sympathize with Pansiqi.

"Oh, it's him. I've heard of him before, and I remember that he was a good serve, but I haven't seen him fight. It looks like I'm going to have to work on the first round. Pansey said with a wry smile.

He had fantasized about drawing an unseeded player in the first round or something, but now it seems that his luck is not so good. Although he avoided the top four seeds, Anderson was one of the more difficult seeds to deal with.

"To be honest, when I saw this sign, I didn't know whether to sympathize with you or him. After all, you are a person who can't be guessed by common sense. I have a strong hunch that you might be going to make a big deal at this US Open. Looking at Pan Xiqi, Lu Yanxun said meaningfully. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
