Zhang Guan's first stop on the tennis court ended in a sweep of the Chinese net, although the opponent did not have the world's top powerhouse, but Zhang Guan's performance in the whole match did not drop a set, still showing his huge competitiveness in tennis.

Many professional tennis players don't want to see the news, Zhang Guan is back, and the comeback is not bad, which can't help but remind the players of Zhang Guan in 2007, for the players, it is not a very good memory.

No one wants to recall the experience of being hanged, not even the current world number one, Novak Djokovic.

Djokovic didn't watch the video of Zhang Guan's game, he just looked at the score of the Chinese Open, and he already had a premonition that the same Zhang Guan was back. And Djokovic also guessed that Zhang Guan made a comeback this time to participate in the London Olympics.

"It's really annoying, I don't usually see you, but when it's time to start the Olympics, come out and compete with us for the gold medal! The key is that if you haven't played for so long, you're still so powerful! Djokovic sighed rather depressedly, and he involuntarily rubbed his legs.

2011 was the year of Djokovic's explosion, he won the Australian Open, he reached the semifinals of the French Open, he won the Wimbledon championship, and he also won the US Open.

However, after the US Open, he suffered a leg injury, and he has been treating his leg injury for some time after the US Open, which he was originally preparing to pay for the Rolex Masters in China, but when he saw the news of Zhang Guan's comeback, he immediately abandoned the decision.

"The current state is definitely not Zhang Guan's opponent, if you want to fight against Zhang Guan, you must be in the best condition, otherwise you will definitely lose very badly." Djokovic thought about it and felt that it was better not to go to the Rolex Masters, in case he was brutalized by Zhang Guan, it would also be a big blow to his self-confidence.

Djokovic is now ranked No. 1 in the world after all, and his record of three Grand Slams a year has also allowed him to surpass Federer and Nadal and become the first brother of tennis. A player ranked in the world cannot afford to lose easily.

……

"Djokovic decided to withdraw from the Rolex Masters in China? Why? Leg injury? Federer smiled slightly, he had already guessed that Djokovic was afraid of losing and did not dare to fight.

"Actually, my knee has not recovered, I was not going to participate in the Rolex Masters, but I didn't expect Djokovic and I to be together!" Federer said into the microphone.

"How's that going to work! Roger, don't forget that Rolex is also your big sponsor. The Rolex Masters in China is named by Rolex, so how can you not go? The agent on the other end of the phone said anxiously.

"I haven't won a single Grand Slam title this year, obviously my knee injury has affected my form, even if I go to this Masters, I can't get any rankings, maybe it will be aggravated by the injury." Federer continued: "I'd better get better and wait until November to go to Spain for the Valencia Open and the Baring Bank Masters, and at the end of the year there is the ATP Finals, which are not much worse than the Rolex Masters. ”

……

Spain.

Nadal had a depressed expression on his face at this time.

"Federer and Djokovic both retired? The total prize money of the Rolex Masters Cup is 5 million US dollars, which is higher than the ATP Finals at the end of the year, which is higher than the Miami Open! Retired due to injury? Sling the bull! Since the US Open, they haven't played in any tournaments at all, and at this year's US Open, everything was good, but now that the tournament is over, they are injured? ”

The agent was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "I guess it may have something to do with Zhang Guan's comeback!" In the just-concluded China Open match, Zhang Guan showed a very good state, and it is estimated that it is no worse than when he won all of them. Federer and Djokovic may be worried that they will lose. ”

"Zhang Guan, this guy, must have not touched tennis for a year or two, and as soon as he played, he was still so powerful, Berdych was abused by him!" Nadal thought about it for a moment and thought it was really possible. After all, the master's previous moves are not easy to fight, and if you lose to the same person many times, the player will inevitably have a psychological shadow; If you beat one person many times, you will also have a psychological advantage when you meet again.

This situation is very common in the sports world, we often say that so-and-so can win anyone, but can't win so-and-so; Or who is the nemesis of whom, this situation is more of a psychological problem in addition to the technical level. Sometimes you lose too much, and when you play again, you will inevitably be timid and look ahead, which will affect your state and on-the-spot performance.

Thinking of this, Nadal said: "Otherwise, I won't play this Masters Cup!" Facing Zhang Guan, I wasn't sure I could win. If you lose by a big score, it will cause an unnecessary psychological burden on yourself. And the next Valencia Open, the total prize money is also 2 million euros, I still play on home, if I concentrate on preparation, I should be able to win the championship. ”

……

United Kingdom, a tennis training base.

"No, I'm not going to China!" Murray shook his head, then said, "I won't fight Zhang Guan before the Olympics next year!" That's right, I once lost to Zhang Guan, but at that time, my skills were not mature, and I was not as powerful as I am now, so I didn't want to expose my current strength too early! I'm going to wait until the Olympics to give Zhang Guan a big surprise. Don't forget that the next Olympics will be held in the UK and I will be the host country, so I will do my best to get a gold medal for the UK! ”

After Murray ended the call with his agent, he walked onto the court with his racket.

……

The tournament director of the Shanghai Rolex Masters is named Lu Huayong, who sounds Chinese, but in fact he is an American of Mexican descent, and Lu Huayong is just his Chinese name.

Approaching the opening of the Masters, Director Lu also made final preparations for the competition.

"Traffic, the biggest challenge we face is traffic!" In the conference room, Director Lu pointed to the map and said, "Our tournament is held at the tennis center of Qizhong Forest Sports City, but the cost of transporting a large number of spectators from the city center to Minhang District is too high!" Even if the fans want to come, they will be deterred by the time it takes to travel and the cost of transportation. Attendance is the biggest problem we have to face! ”

Director Lu said this, slowed down his tone, and continued: "The world's top four Djokovic, Nadal, Federer and Murray will all participate, which is the highlight of our competition, and Zhang Guan will also participate in this year's Masters, the competition between the Golden Slam winner and the world's top four will inevitably be the focus of the audience's attention, and it is also the direction of our key publicity!" ”

Director Lu was talking, but the mobile phone rang.

"Guys, I'm so sorry, I'm answering a call." Director Lu walked out of the conference room and answered a phone call, but when he came back, his face became unnatural.

"I just got the news that Djokovic has withdrawn from the Masters Cup due to injury. Our luck doesn't look good this year, with one less player ranked number one in the world. ”

As soon as Director Lu's voice fell, the voice of the phone rang again.

"Guys, I'm so sorry, I still have to answer a phone call." Director Lu walked out of the conference room.

This time, when he came back, his face became extremely ugly.

"I just received a call from Federer's agent that Federer has a recurrence of his knee injury and is unable to compete." Director Lu was a little depressed and continued: "Djokovic and Federer can't come, and this year's Masters has lost a lot of color!" So the focus of our propaganda is to focus on the match between Nadal and Zhang Guan! ”

Director Lu didn't say a few words, and the ringtone of his mobile phone interrupted him again, and he walked out of the conference room, and then the sound of Director Lu arguing loudly with others came from the corridor.

When Director Lu came back again, his whole face was as ugly as a frosted eggplant.

"I'll tell you the unfortunate news that Nadal has a cold, so he has to withdraw from this year's Masters!"

This time, there was a commotion in the conference room, and it was said that these big stars were the highlight of the Masters, and after three phone calls, the top three in the world withdrew from the tournament.

"You say, Murray won't retire too, will you?" One of them grunted quietly, while Director Lu's mobile phone vibrated again.

"You can't really be hit by my crow's mouth, right? Is Murray going to retire too? ”

……

At the 2011 Rolex Masters, the world's top four players Novak Djokovic, Nadal, Federer and Murray withdrew on the same day. The Masters became a Masters without Masters.

……

"Djokovic, Nadal, Federer and Murray, all four are not coming? The masters are all gone, and there are some shrimp soldiers and crab generals left, what kind of master is it? Zhang Guan was a little surprised, and then he asked: "Then Ferrer, who is ranked fifth in the world, will always come, right?" ”

Compared with the first four, the gap between the world's fifth-ranked Ferrer is a little bigger, and in the latest released points rankings, the first Djokovic has 14,720 points, the second Nadal has 10,620 points, the third Federer has 8,380 points, the fourth Murray has 7,165 points, and the fifth Ferrer has only 4,200 points, just half of Federer. From this point, it can be seen that the fifth and top four are completely two different grades of players.

"Ferrer is here and he's the top seed, with world number six Soderlin and seventh-ranked Monfils also out of the tournament, eighth Fish is the second seed, Berdych is the third seed and Tsonga is the fourth seed. There are only four players in the top 10 in the world. ”

"So many people didn't come, the total prize of five million dollars, is it too little?" Zhang Guan said to himself: "These guys, shouldn't they be frightened by my comeback, and don't dare to come!" The 1000ATP points are easy to come by! With the previous China Net, I can get 1500 points. ”

Zhang Guan immediately checked the latest rankings, with 1,500 points, he can just rank 23rd in the world, between Argentina's Cera and Germany's Mayer.

"23rd, that's enough, win this Masters, and I'll have a ticket to the Olympics!" (To be continued.) )
