Chapter 378 Eleven consecutive victories!

"Flash in the pan? Hmph!"

Seeing this word appearing in some media reports, An Sheng was extremely disdainful and snorted coldly.

I have to say that at this time, An Sheng's self-confidence is very strong, and more importantly, at the moment when he won the Montreal Masters and defeated Federer, An Sheng was blessed and felt that An opportunity to break through the 90 bottleneck.

Of course, he just had such a slight feeling, as if he was a little closer to the 90th stage, but he didn't immediately complete the breakthrough.

And what he feels, the way to break through the 90 bottleneck, or the condition, is the "champion"!
To be more specific, it is "champion temperament", confident, strong, and even a state similar to "I am invincible".

Therefore, An Sheng is also conscious, and wants to maintain the current strength in order to gain more experience. As for whether he can complete the breakthrough as soon as possible, there is no need to force it.

Back to the schedule, just after the Montreal Masters, An Sheng rushed to Ohio, USA on the same day to participate in the Southwest Consortium Open held in Cincinnati.

This is also an ATP World Tour Masters 1000, and in terms of timing, it is close to the previous Montreal Masters.

It must be said that this kind of schedule is a bit too tight, especially for some veterans, but it is not very friendly.

Take Federer for example, he reached the final in Montreal, so if he wants to participate in the Southwest Consortium Open, he will hardly get any rest time, and he must suffer a little in terms of physical strength .

It may be for this reason that Federer did not participate in this event. In addition, Djokovic and Murray were also unable to participate due to injuries.

In this way, among the four kings in today's tennis world, only Nadal chose to participate, but to be honest, on the hard court, Nadal's performance, especially in the past two years, is not very good.

This also led to the Southwest Consortium Open this time looking a little lonely and dim.

However, such a situation has caused more people to pay attention to the new generation of An Sheng, and the German teenager, Zverev, who also participated in this competition.

Also on August 8th, the Southwest Consortium Open officially started, and An Sheng ranked No. 15 and was divided into the upper half.

Moreover, An Sheng had a bye in the first round of the race.

Of course, don't think that An Sheng has received special care. In fact, in the first round of the main match, there were as many as seven players with byes.

This is the result of its unreasonable schedule.

But for An Sheng, this is naturally a good thing, because it will give him two days to recover his strength.

And when the time came to August 8, An Sheng ushered in his first opponent in this competition, and also his "old acquaintance", Lopez from Spain.

As I said before, Lopez is a veteran and a player who is better at clay courts.

In other words, its tactics are not so violent, and rely more on its running ability and bottom line stalemate ability to compete for points.

But now, this is not a clay court, but an outdoor hard court. In addition, his strength has not fully reached the peak of the 80 stage.

In this way, facing An Sheng, who is in full swing and extremely stable, the result is not much suspense.

In just one and a half hours, An Sheng easily swept his opponent and won his seventh victory after paying for his injury.

And one day later, on August 8, Anson swept Polguetro from Agotín with a score of 17-2, raising his winning streak to 0 games.

Later, in the quarter-finals, An Sheng was very surprised and met a player from Japan, Bin Tian Yuichi.

This is indeed very surprising. In fact, when An Sheng was watching the draw, he had noticed the Japanese player. After all, apart from Kei Nishikori and Chung Hyun, he wanted to see East Asian players in the Masters. This in itself is uncommon.

As far as An Sheng knew, Bintian Yuichi only entered the main competition through the qualifying round. At that time, he could not have imagined that the opponent could actually get through the first three rounds and even meet him.

However, an accident was an accident, An Sheng started to attack, but he was merciless and even more vicious.

In the end, it only took him an hour to completely crush this Bintian Yuichi, sweep him out, and push his winning streak to the ninth game.

But at this time, people seemed to be surprised to find this point, and gradually some media began to focus on it and report heavily.

And, this time, many people believed that An Sheng could win the Masters.

However, this is not because they are all optimistic about An Sheng, but because, so far, there have been too many upsets in the Southwest Consortium Masters Tournament.

Like Zverev, who was also paid attention to before, he was eliminated in the second round only, and like Tim, he only lasted until the fourth round, and was defeated by Kaye from Olaria. Gauss eliminated.

In other words, among the remaining four players in the Southwest Consortium Open, An Sheng is already the highest ranked player in the world and the most famous player.

In the subsequent semi-finals, An Sheng was not weak, he was still extremely strong, and it could even be said that he easily defeated Isner from the United States.

As for the final, Anson's opponent was Kyrgios, who had previously defeated Tim.

It is certain that Kyrgios's current competitive state must be very hot, otherwise, with his hard power alone, he may not be able to make it to the present.

In this way, Kyrgios has received the support of a lot of media. Of course, aren't these media the same people who looked down on An Sheng before?
But how can their reasons stand up?Kyrgios is in good condition, so is Anson not in good condition?He has won ten consecutive victories!
And when the final was over, everyone was shocked. Leaving aside those who could slander An Sheng before, even those who were neutral and even supported An Sheng were a little hard to believe.

Because, in this game, it was too easy for An Sheng to win.

It's 2 to 0 again!Sweep!There is no suspense.

At this moment, I don't know how many people were shocked.

Eleven consecutive victories!

Masters two consecutive championships!

Anson's world ranking will reach No. 5!

What is even more unbearable is whether he, who is now unstoppable, will make it to the final again in the upcoming US Open, and even win the final championship?

At this point, regardless of whether he can really win the US Open championship, at least, no one dares to deny An Sheng's rise.

As for An Sheng, this time the US Open champion!He is determined!
