Return to 2002: Freestyle Superstar

Chapter 416 Wimbledon welcomes its new king

For the on-site host, he must remain objective and neutral most of the time when he is commentating, unless the players playing on the spot are British players.

However, he can reveal the following personal preferences, such as being a Federer fan.

Chen Ran's playing is also very exciting, and it is also very enjoyable to watch, but why don't you like him?

Because he is a player from the East, not a European?
On another point, Chen Ran also joked in an interview with the British media: "Isn't it normal for England to lose to Portugal in the European Cup? This is not an upset."

As a result, those narrow-minded British people became jealous.

In addition, those British media are so annoying, and Chen Ran is not willing to always treat others with an elegant smile like Federer. He doesn't know how many times he has criticized the British media.

Then the British media demonized him, which further affected his impression in the hearts of British fans.

In fact, Chen Ran's reputation in the United States is pretty good now. Many American media have used Chen Ran to ridicule Roddick, and many American businesses have invited Chen Ran to be an endorsement.

Today, Chen Ran and Yao Ming may be the only Chinese athletes who can get endorsement contracts from Americans.

boom!
Chen Ran only felt that he was more energetic.

"I can't guarantee I won't play Wimbledon again in the future."

But no one doesn’t love grass, so many tennis names will be resurrected with full health like "Brother Xinchun" after the French Open.

It's fun to imagine.

Anyway, after a year, it only takes one month to fully play on grass.

In this case, what does he have to care about.

The British tax system is terrible, the food is terrible, and the weather is disgusting. He estimates that he will not stay in the UK for more than 20 days a year, just to participate in the annual Wimbledon. He has never thought about it. What business contracts were obtained from the British?

In the future, if Federer really becomes the king of grass, others will be dissatisfied and complain. You see, Chen Ran has never come to compete, and you have never defeated him face to face at Wimbledon. What kind of king of grass is this? Not worthy of the name!

The one who is depressed must be the Wimbledon organizing committee.

A powerful and heavy shot immediately put an end to Federer's attempt to intercept the ball.

Chen Ran imagined that if he did the opposite and went all out in the clay court season, winning all kinds of glory like crazy, and then announced his retirement due to injury in the grass court season and took a month off, this should become a unique landscape in professional tennis. Let it become a good story.

Even if he works hard to win a championship, the after-tax bonus will be less than 50 pounds.

As long as he wins Wimbledon once, it means that he has stood at the pinnacle of grass.

Chen Ran really had such an idea.

When Chen Ran thought of this, he suddenly felt full of energy and his whole person's momentum rose.

So from Chen Ran's perspective, he really doesn't care about his reputation in the UK.

In professional tennis, there are indeed many tennis players who take selective vacations.

It’s just that most people will only choose to take a break during the hated clay court season. After all, these people have always adapted to the rhythm of playing on clay and hate it in their hearts.

"I even thought that if I could win Wimbledon this time, it would be okay to miss Wimbledon in the next few years. This is equivalent to waiting for a slap in the face from the British organizing committee."

"But as long as I win the championship, I plan to take a few days off every July."

He once again secured serve and successfully fulfilled his count.

6 is better than 3!

This is the exact same score as the first set.

In the third set, Chen Ran showed the style of a three-time Grand Slam winner and his determination to win the "Grand Slam" achievement.

In this set, whether it was offense or defense, forehand or backhand, online or bottom line, Chen Ran's performance was flawless.

Federer couldn't find any opportunities. After all, at this moment, he is far from the King Fei who regards Wimbledon as his back garden in later generations.

Especially the poor record between Federer and Chen Ran puts him at a disadvantage and puts him under a certain amount of pressure.

After the third set, the situation once again turned to Chen Ran.

"Very good!" Chen Ran picked up a towel and wiped his sweat, "It's impossible for the opponent to hit that magic ball every time in the second set."

If Federer can keep every ball the same as the one that fulfilled the set point in the second set, the game will not be a contest.

At the same time, Chen Ran also knew that his actions of applauding Federer and giving a thumbs up after the second set may have seemed to the Swiss as another psychological warfare, making him feel that he did not care about the outcome of the set and still Think you have a winning chance.

The calm expression also affected Federer's performance in the third set.

2 to 1 also pushed Federer into a desperate situation.

If Federer knew what Chen Ran was thinking about Wimbledon at the moment, he would definitely say: This madman!
The three-minute break passed by in a flash, and both sides walked to the court with different moods.

"There is only one set left before Chen Ran achieves the Grand Slam."

The Sky Sports host swallowed and said silently.

His mood was particularly complicated.

Is this place really going to witness this Chinese's achievement of a Grand Slam?

So far, Chen Ran has maintained a perfect record against British tennis players, whether on tour or in the Grand Slams.

Now, he has to watch him strive for Wimbledon's highest honor, which makes him feel very complicated.

Da Da Da~
Federer took a deep breath and patted the tennis ball with some complicated emotions.

When Chen Ran was about to receive the serve, he glanced at Sampras casually. The latter's face was ashen at the moment, and he did not look as high-spirited as he did at the end of the second set.

In the fourth set, Federer tried to grit his teeth and put pressure on Chen Ran's serve.

However, he found helplessly that even if he kept raising gears, he was still unable to break Chen Ran's serve. The opponent seemed to have entered a super-god state.

"Could this be the reason why the opponent was so confident before the game started?"

"No wonder he is not optimistic about the combination of himself and Pete."

In several fierce confrontations, Chen Ran once again pushed Federer into a desperate situation.

Zone 2, inner corner!
Chen Ran thought to himself, and immediately pounced out like a leopard.

This time, he did the opposite and sneaked a shot into the inside corner to suppress his forehand. As a result, Federer barely managed to hit the forehand, sending the tennis ball back to Chen Ran's backhand position.

Chen Ran, who is getting better and better, has completely reached his personal peak.

I saw him adjusting in small steps continuously, turning sideways, rising into the air, striking out with his forehand, drawing a slash in a cool and sharp way, and rushing directly to the big triangle blind spot on the opponent's backhand baseline.

Chen Ran once again showed his determination to win at a critical moment. It can only be said that he is very good at playing key balls.

The break was successful and Chen Ran led 6-5.

In the twelfth game, Federer, who had no intention of playing anymore, was scored by Chen Ran with 4 points in a row.

5 to 7, Chen Ran saved his last serve without any suspense.

He didn't cheer, just calmly raised his arms.

"Wimbledon has ushered in its new king!" the host said in a very complicated way.
