Match point

Chapter 177 Troika
The focus battle is indeed a focus battle.

In just one week, Gao Wen double-killed Kebert, and beat Kebert so hard that he lost his temper. I am afraid that this psychological shadow will haunt Kebert for a long, long time.

And Gao Wen didn't know at all that there was a legend in Athens about the madman who "destroys flowers with hot hands", and it became more and more outrageous and exaggerated.

So far, the first round of men's singles is all over.

There is no doubt that UCLA has become the most shining star. Three players, Geelong, Gao Wen and McDonald, have all successfully advanced, once again demonstrating the strong comprehensive strength of the Bruins this season.

After experiencing the same team competition where the bayonet became popular, the Trojans also participated in the singles competition with four players, but their performance in the first round was mediocre with one win and three losses; while the Bruins continued their strength in the team competition, with three wins and one loss. Overwhelmed the sworn enemy in the same city.

Especially in the unpopular first day of the game, the stability and strength of the Bruins became more and more prominent. In an instant, they stood out and became the favorites to win the championship.

According to the draw, Thompson and Gao Wen are in the bottom half, and Geelong and McDonald are in the top half. Now Thompson is out, but the Bruins still have the theoretical possibility of joining forces in the final to win the championship and runner-up.

So, is UCLA, which has just made history in the team competition, likely to continue to dominate the individual competition?
Carrying the momentum of the national team championship, the troika of the Bruins naturally became the "target" of all players——

Everyone wants to be a champion!At the same time, everyone is eager to beat the Bruins!

After all, compared to the collective advantage of the team competition, it is often easier to create miracles in individual competitions, and it only takes one game to be upset.

All the attention was focused on the troika of the Bruins, and the pressure also increased. It could be clearly felt that the air in Athens seemed to have undergone subtle changes.

On the way to the training ground or the restaurant, you can clearly feel the eyes coming and going are looking at them, revealing a touch of meaning.

Those sights passed through the air, full of challenging momentum and high fighting spirit, it seems that everyone is looking forward to defeating the Bruins to prove themselves and win their own spotlight on the stage of the National Championship. That's how it all comes together.

ESPN's official website even published an article saying:
After arriving in Athens, UCLA's singles players have always been strong. It was not until Thompson's upset loss to Sid that they broke their undefeated golden stature. This season, the Bruins' collective advantage in singles is far ahead of the competition The opponent can be described as thriving.

So, who can become the second warrior to slay the dragon after Sid?

It's okay if you don't say it, it will explode as soon as you say it.

The NCAA arena is full of young and energetic teenagers, with a strong desire to win and a firm spirit of challenge. Seeing that ESPN has praised the Bruins in this way, they are naturally gearing up and eager to try. Everyone is eager to become a superhero of the Dragon Warrior .

boom!
Boom boom boom!
Objectively speaking, Macdonald's draw is relatively less dangerous, because the first round is the biggest crisis, and after overcoming the difficulties, it will be a smooth road; while the draws of Geelong and Gao Wen are a little tougher, especially Geelong, almost every game. In the tough battle, the second round will face severe challenges.

Ryan Sean of the University of Virginia.

During the regular season, the two universities had played against each other before, and it was inseparable - and, according to the historical trajectory, Sean will be the national singles champion next year, so it can be seen that he already has a strong impact, And has great potential to beat any opponent.

really!

Jilong experienced a fierce battle and fought hard for three sets. Finally, relying on the advantage of a break in the final set, he defeated Sean and advanced to the third round at risk.

As for Gao Wen, he ushered in the challenge of Dane Weber of the University of Oklahoma.

Needless to say, as opponents in the semi-finals of the team competition, Gao Wen and Webb already knew their opponents very well. What's more, Gao Wen was born in the game against the University of Oklahoma. You don't need words to feel the spark.

Webb, ranked in the 40s as Oklahoma's No. [-] single, flew low to make the singles list.

But don't forget, this is a sharp knife with a powerful style of play. Once the state is up and he is crazy, he can hit any kind of magic ball. How can he play with full firepower? In the regular season In the confrontation, Weber made Bremer lose his temper.

After Kerbert, Gao Wen played against a powerful player for the second consecutive round, and he was also a strong player with subtle differences in style. The game was not easy.

After losing in the semi-finals of the team competition, Weber didn't even get a chance to play. Standing in front of the Bruins again, he got a chance for revenge. How could Weber miss it?

From the very beginning, Weber was very active and in good condition, like a turret-style offense that feels hot, requires strength, strength, landing point, and angle... The attack covering the entire field started a frenzied bombardment, No matter how Gao Wen changed his batting rhythm, Weber was able to raise his hand to attack, and played the tennis style that Kerbert wanted to achieve but was never able to complete in the last round.

and!

Every time he scored, Weber would clenched his fists and shouted to cheer him up, because he knew that he needed to put himself in the right position, in a low stance to attack Gao Wen; at the same time, he also knew that he needed to suppress Gao Wen in the battle of momentum. This dangerous opponent cannot be given a little breathing room.

"Come on!"

Webb roared continuously, showing the style of "Aussie Hare" Lleyton Hewitt.

In fact, "Come-On", strictly speaking, does not exactly mean "come on". Moreover, tennis is a gentleman's sport, and very few players yell on the court-not only banning swearing, Loud voices are also often considered bad manners.

After the millennium, the Australian player Hewitt was born. This player became famous at a young age. Although he lacked a serve or a forehand as a heavy weapon, his defense that covered the entire court earned him the nickname "Australian Hare". ; At the same time, his tenacious fighting spirit and will to fight are also his hallmarks.

"Come-On" is exactly a kind of support slogan carried forward by Hewitt, constantly encouraging himself to motivate himself and stimulate his potential.

At the beginning, many people complained about Hewitt's slogan, but the times are advancing, and tennis is also improving. Gradually, this has evolved into a label of Hewitt, and it is becoming more and more widely known. accept.

Today, Webber showed Hewitt's daring and vigorous game style, and his passionate cheering won countless whistles and applause from the audience.

"3:0".

As soon as he came up, Weber even broke his belt, and his momentum was like a rainbow. Gao Wen was extremely embarrassed. He really hadn't encountered such an embarrassing situation for a long time.

　Second more.
