Chapter 115: Another victory over Federer

"Zhang Guan won! The score of this set is 6-2, we congratulate Zhang Guan on sweeping Federer with an aggregate score of 3-0 and successfully advancing to the final of the French Open, we congratulate Zhang Guan for making history again and becoming the first player in China to advance to the French Open men's singles final! This is also the second time that Zhang Guan has reached the final of a Grand Slam after the Australian Open. And Zhang Guan's opponent in the final will be the winner of the next match, between Nadal and Djokovic! ”

At this time, Federer raised his head at the Phillip Stadium, his face full of regret, and then he adjusted his emotions, walked to the net, shook hands with Zhang Guan, and congratulated him.

"Congratulations!" Federer spoke.

"Thanks, Roger, you're great too, you're the best tennis player I've ever seen!" Zhang Guan said.

"But it's still not as good as you! For me, you're the best tennis player in the world. Federer smiled and continued: "I'm looking forward to our next encounter." ”

"Definitely." Zhang Guan thought for a second, and then said: "In the next Wimbledon and the US Open in September, we will definitely have a chance to meet again, maybe it will be the final of Wimbledon or the US Open!" ”

"Is it only Wimbledon and the US Open? Don't forget that before Wimbledon and the US Open, there will be a series of Masters tournaments! Not ready to attend? Federer asked.

Zhang Guan shook his head slightly: "I don't want to go, I'm going to win four Grand Slams, maybe another Olympic champion next year, a golden slam for me is enough." And with the Olympics next year, most of my energy will be on track and field! ”

"It's a shame to be missing you in the ring." Federer's voice changed and he continued: "I wish you the championship in advance, I am sure you will be able to defeat Nadal!" ”

"Thank you, I'll try to win the championship." Zhang Guan said.

"No, no, no. You've got to win the championship! Federer laughed: "When you win the French Open, then I will say that I lost to the champion, it will not sound so embarrassing!" Haha......"

……

This will be followed by another semi-final in the Men's Singles, where Nadal will face Novak Djokovic.

Nadal is now on a 19-match winning streak at the French Open and is the reigning champion of the French Open, and the winning Nadal is certainly eager to dominate the French Open for the third year in a row. Djokovic, on the other hand, entered as the No. 6 seed. It is the first time to advance to the semi-finals of the coming Grand Slam.

Nadal and Djokovic have met four times, with Nadal holding a 3-1 advantage. The two last met at this year's Rome Masters, when Nadal won in straight sets 6-2, 6-3.

In the first set, the two sides held serve each other in the first four games, and Nadal seized the opportunity to break serve in the fifth game. In the seventh game, Nadal broke again and took a 5-2 lead. However, Nadal, who won the set point, was a little slack, and was broken by Djokovic in the eighth and tenth games respectively, chasing the score to a 5-5 draw. And in the 11th game, Nadal broke serve again. Nadal then held serve in the next 12 games and won the first set 7-5.

The first match was played in 12 games, but there were five breaks, which can be described as a break battle, and while the audience was expecting a more exciting match, Djokovic dropped the chain, and he played more and more impatiently, after Nadal won the second set 6-4. In the third set, they lost the game 6-2. Djokovic's 37 unforced errors in a normal match mostly occurred in the final two sets. At this time, the young Djokovic also exposed the shortcomings of poor consistency.

Nadal defeated Novak Djokovic to advance to the final. This means that this year's final will be Zhang Guan against Nadal, and the final will take place two days later on the weekend.

……

"Federer lost to Zhang Guan and missed the French Open final":

Although the Swiss king Federer has won countless honors in today's tennis world, Roland? Garos (the venue of the French Open) will always be his favorite place, as the French Open is the only Grand Slam tournament he has ever won. After losing to Zhang Guan in the French Open final, Federer lost to Zhang Guan again in today's semifinals. The French Open final lasted 2 hours and 48 minutes, and Federer did his best. But it was still difficult to resist Zhang Guan's powerful attack, and finally lost 0-3 and missed the final.

After the match, the Swiss king admitted that the match against Zhang Guan was a physical contest: "I think it was a very physical-oriented game, and it was extremely difficult to score from the first ball of the game, and each game took a long time. I expected this to happen, so I'm ready for a tough fight. It felt good at the time, which was a good thing for me. Unfortunately, Zhang Guan's ability to move is really strong, which is what makes me feel that the race is difficult after the start of the race. Today Zhang Guan performed better than me, he played very tenacious. ”

The Swiss king has vowed to make a comeback next year, so he will continue to be full of fantasies and anticipations for his career: "I am still one French Open title away from winning and if I win today, or if I have already reached the top here last year, then I will be missing a lot of goals in my career that I need to keep chasing. Like a French Open champion, it always appeals to me. If one day I finally get this honor, then that feeling will be even sweeter. I keep giving myself more opportunities and working hard for the French Open title time and time again. I know I can do it, I'm sure of it. I've done my great French Open, it's not unacceptable to me, I'm feeling okay now. ”

Comparing the final of this year's Australian Open, the Swiss king felt a lot: "I don't know how I feel about the Australian Open, but I also think I'm going to be disappointed, maybe it's only five minutes. Today I went back to the dressing room with some loss and disappointment. Of course, the worst part is when other people keep encouraging me to be proud of me and that losing is just bad luck. ”

When asked if he could forget the French Open defeat at Wimbledon, Federer thought there was no problem: "Once you get on the grass, all the past unpleasantness will be forgotten. It's nice to win, but it's better to forget about it as soon as possible after losing. I'm excited about the upcoming grass tournament and it's a great opportunity for me to bounce back. I'm hoping to win Wimbledon for the fifth time in a row, and it would be an incredible legend if I did. I hope I can create opportunities like that and I want to do well at Wimbledon. ”

Federer is trying to get out of the shadow of defeat, because the next grass-court event will be Federer's forte, and he will try his best to come out of the shadow of defeat and wish him good luck.

Coach Zhang handed the newspaper to Zhang Guan and continued: "It looks like Federer knows exactly where he lost. ”

"To be honest, Federer was in really good form yesterday. When it was 7-7 in the first set, I really had some doubts that I could win. Zhang Guan said.

"Federer's condition is indeed very good, I think Federer at that moment, the state should be at the peak! However, a tennis match is two or three hours long, and it is impossible for an athlete to maintain a constant state of excitement for such a long time, so in the third set, Federer's form has clearly begun to decline. Coach Zhang pointed to the newspaper and continued: "Federer looks like he wants to use Wimbledon to heal his injury, but I think that in Wimbledon, he may lose more cleanly, Wimbledon is a grass, the more active the offensive style of play, the more he can exert his power at Wimbledon!" ”

Coach Zhang opened his laptop and continued: "Don't talk about Federer, anyway, the game is over, let's talk about your next opponent, Rafael Nadal." (To be continued.) )
