Walking out of the Vodafone Stadium, Zhang Guan was surrounded by several reporters, and what Zhang Guan didn't expect was that the reporters surrounding him were all black-haired and yellow-skinned, and they were all reporters from China.

"It's rare! After playing four games, none of the domestic reporters came to interview me so actively! By the way, I heard Zhuge say that the domestic media has unblocked me, so these reporters are also here. Zhang Guan waved his hand at the reporter and motioned for everyone to ask questions one by one.

"Zhang Guan, I heard that you were banned by the Athletics Management Center, is this really the case?" The first reporter asked.

Zhang Guan was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the reporter to ask this question first, and after a short period of surprise, Zhang Guan said: "That's right, I was indeed banned." ”

"Is the reason for the ban because the athletics center doesn't want you to participate in tennis?" Another reporter asked.

"I don't know about that, you'll have to ask them." Zhang Guan shook his head.

"You have advanced to the top eight in the Australian Open, but you have been banned from China, do you feel aggrieved?" The third reporter asked.

Zhang Guan thought about it and felt that this question was not easy to answer positively, so he said: "I am an athlete, what I have to do is to play every game!" As for the ban given to me by the athletics management center, I will strictly enforce it, and I will not participate in any track and field competitions during the ban period. ”

The next reporter couldn't wait to ask: "Are you ready to give up track and field when you participate in tennis?" Is it possible to retire from the national track and field team in the future? ”

"As long as the national track and field team does not expel me, of course I will not quit the national track and field team, although I am now banned from participating in track and field competitions, but as long as the national team needs it, I am willing to accept the call-up at any time!" Zhang Guan added with great righteousness: "I am always ready to serve the country. ”

"You've now advanced to the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, tell us about your ultimate goal at this Australian Open!" Finally, a reporter asked a relatively normal question.

"Winning the Australian Open, of course! From the beginning to the end, I had only one goal in the competition, and that was to win the championship. It used to be true on track and field, and now it's true on tennis! Zhang Guan replied without any hesitation.

……

After returning to the hotel, Zhang Guan remembered that he had just earned $300,000, and he was in a good mood. Then he turned on the computer, looked at the matchlist for the next round of matches, and asked Sharapova next to him: "By the way, I suddenly remembered one thing, Davydenko participates in the competition so often, he should have a lot of injuries, right?" ”

Sharapova thought for a moment, then shook her head: "I really haven't heard of any major injuries on Davydenko's body. He also takes care to protect himself during the game. ”

Zhang Guan found some memories of Davydenko in his mind, in his impression, Davydenko was involved in a gambling turmoil, and the reason was that Davydenko retired due to injury in that game, which caused the bookmaker to suffer a lot of losses, so the bookmaker reported Davydenko, and later confirmed that Davydenko's foot was indeed a stress fracture.

"Maybe Davydenko hasn't been affected by a foot injury yet!"

At this time, Sharapova said: "Davydenko is very good at playing Nadal, he should be the best man against Nadal among the male players." Davydenko seems to be comfortable with Nadal's kind of high-spin ball. And Davydenko is also very good at playing clay, but he is relatively weak on grass, and Wimbledon is basically a first-round tour. ”

"Clay is more advantageous for defensive players, while grass is more suitable for offensive players. It looks like Davydenko shouldn't be good at dealing with players with an attacking style of play. That being the case. I'll play in an offensive style tomorrow! Zhang Guan said.

……

On the tenth match day of the Australian Open, in the men's singles quarterfinals, Zhang Guan faced the No. 3 seed Nikolai Davydenko.

This time, Zhang Guan finally came to the main court of the Australian Open, Rod Laver Stadium.

There are still four matches scheduled at the Rod Laver Stadium today, starting with two women's singles quarter-finals. Sharapova beat Chakvitadze 2-0 and Clijsters beat Hingis 2-1. Zhang Guan's match with Davydenko was scheduled for the third match, while the last match was Nadal against Gonzalez "Intellectual Cannon".

The first set of the match between the two sides begins. Davydenko serves first. As a Russian player, Davydenko's serve is relatively sharp, and although his physical talent is average, he can also send shots at speeds of more than 200 kilometers per hour from time to time.

Davydenko seemed to have a good start to the game, sending out aces twice in a row to get off to a good start with a 30-0 scoreline. But then, after Zhang Guan pulled a ball back, Davydenko's style of play gradually became more stable, and then successfully held his serve.

In the second set, Zhang Guan served, and three consecutive heavy artillery serves directly caught Davydenko off guard, and then relied on a serve to win the net easily.

Immediately after the third and fourth games, neither side took advantage, and the score came to a 2-2 draw.

"Davydenko is more stable than I imagined, and there are not many opportunities to be able to go directly to the Internet, and the way of playing in front of the net doesn't seem to be suitable for dealing with Davydenko, so let's use Federer's style of play to deal with him!" Zhang Guan remembered Federer's 20-game winning streak against Davydenko in history, and felt that it was more reliable to use Federer's style of play to deal with Davydenko.

In the next ball, Davydenko's serve was caught by Zhang Guan on the baseline, and then Zhang Guan used a forehand spin to continuously hit large-angle balls on both sides of Davydenko's baseline. The topspin ball is relatively easy to control where the ball lands, and this kind of high-angle baseline ball makes it impossible for Davydenko to have a chance to go to the net. Although the speed of the ball is average and the threat is not too great, the high-speed topspin constantly disintegrates Davydenko's service advantage.

After holding a few beats, Zhang Guan suddenly forced Davydenko's backhand, and after Davydenko returned the ball, he suddenly changed the line Davydenko's forehand. And Davydenko did not react, and sure enough, he conceded this goal.

In the second ball, Zhang Guan was still like this, and the lower baseline position received the ball smoothly, and then the forehand toppled and began to hit the baseline large-angle ball, and then suddenly pulled the diagonal line to attack the backhand, followed by the sideline front, and then the sideline backhand. As a result, Davydenko conceded another goal.

In the third ball, Davydenko served and scored, and in the fourth ball, Zhang Guan scored another point with the same tactic. The score came to 15-40 in this game, and Zhang Guan had already won a break point.

Davydenko wiped the sweat from his forehead, but remembered the three balls he had just lost.

"Why is Zhang Guan fighting like this? In the previous video, I remember that Zhang Guan almost didn't use this style of play! This is the standard baseline offensive play, the baseline pull and attack hold and turn sideways, isn't this Federer's best tactic! Zhang Guanxue is not good, how can he just pay the tuition fee Dele! ”

Davydenko felt a wave of irritability because he had already lost nine straight against Federer. (To be continued.) )
