Chapter 1549

In the final analysis, tickets to the Center Court are really limited. Not everyone can buy tickets, but Murray Hill is different. Everyone can come here. It seems to have become another unique landscape of Wimbledon. Adds a bit of precipitating charm.

Both Melbourne Park and Roland Garros imitate Wimbledon's big screen settings for watching games outside the stadium, but they are tangible and intangible. After all, there is no way to replicate the essence of Wimbledon's picnic culture. You need to worry about the drunk Farah all the time. Sheng is even more envious.

This year, we went one step further

Murray, who has returned from injury, finally regained his senses. After Roland Garros made a breakthrough, the grassland season is in full swing, and he deserves to be the number one favorite to win the championship. Local fans are eagerly looking forward to Murray's feat in 2013 and reaching the top again. Champions, they're ready.

Early in the morning, Murray Mountain had already gathered a large number of people one after another. Leaving aside the turbulent crowds queuing up to buy tickets, they all came early to occupy a position with a good view, waiting for the annual grand event to kick off. Today's game without Murray has no impact.

Anyway, when it comes to picnics, entertainment and relaxation are the most important things.

At one o'clock in the noon, the competition kicked off on time.

Following the tradition, all sightlines and broadcast signals of the entire Wimbledon are all aimed at the center court, waiting for the defending champion to appear.

In an instant, Wimbledon, where tens of thousands of people gathered, fell into silence, and the emotions of anticipation, tension, joy and anxiety were intertwined and permeated the whole area.

Under the eyes of everyone, two players made their debut, with German veteran Filip Kohlschreber in the lead, followed by defending champion Novak Djokovic.

This is the first match on the center court. No player has ever set foot on this field. The green grass is covered with white clothes and snow, and there is a kind of relaxed and freehand style; , pay attention to the salute, slowly kicked off this year's event.

Sacred and grand, formal and dignified

Every audience can't help but be excited.

Players are even more so, their blood boils uncontrollably. Imagine yourself stepping on that field as the defending champion to kick off this century-old event. The eyes of the whole world are gathered on the center court. Glory is also a kind of affirmation , The heart just exploded violently.

Standing in front of the TV screen, Gao Wen, who was about to go to the training ground for the second training session in the afternoon, stopped before he realized it.

Gawain is no longer a rookie. He has played many games at Arthur Ashe Stadium, Rod Laver Stadium, and Philippe Chatier Stadium; This taste also knows that feeling, but at this moment, I still yearn for it uncontrollably.

Yearning to set foot on the center court, yearning to be the champion, yearning to start the opening game as the defending champion, yearning to be the king of Wimbledon.

Plop, plop, plop...

The heart is pounding against the chest, and the fighting spirit is surging in the blood. Even though I have been on the tour for nearly a year, even if I have tasted the taste of a Grand Slam champion, I can still feel the boiling passion and surging blood at this moment It is continuously releasing energy.

The annual Wimbledon officially ignites the flames of war.

Center Court, Djokovic faces Kohlschreber in the first round.

Although the German veteran has performed poorly this year and has dropped out of the top 30 in the world rankings, so that Wimbledon has not been able to be ranked in the seed seats; but it must not be forgotten that grass is his best field. Two weeks ago in Halle Almost pulled Federer off his horse.

Moreover, it is not completely impossible to face Djokovic. In the third round of the French Open in 2009, Kohlschreber defeated Djokovic in an upset. The only victory for the German veteran.

So what about Wimbledon this time?

"6:4", "6:4", "6:4".

Djokovic's state was a little slow, but in the end he passed the test with a score of three straight sets and set sail to start his defending journey.

On the first day of the game, there was no surprise, and all the players worthy of attention successfully advanced

From big seed players Wawrinka, Raonic, Nadal, to other seeds worthy of attention, Anderson, Cilic, Goffin, etc., without exception, all won and advanced.

The only slightly surprising one was Kei Nishikori.

In the face of the Italian clay court master Burelli, the sixth seed unexpectedly fell into a hard fight. In the end, he narrowly won in five sets. In the semi-finals in Halle two weeks ago, he retired due to injury, although Kei Nishikori said that he was fine. , but the dramatic ups and downs in the first round are still worrying.

On the first match day, the sunny weather was reassuring, but the unexpected high temperature was a serious challenge. Under the weather conditions where the body temperature was generally close to 40 degrees, the players had to fight under the scorching sun, and the fast pace of the grass field was also a challenge. Extra puzzles for everyone.

Before the full-day event is over, the Wimbledon organizing committee has announced the schedule for the next day

First, it is convenient for fans to line up to buy tickets.

Second, give the players time to prepare and adjust.

Corresponding to the first day, the women's singles defending champion will open the central court the next day, and Kvitova will start her defending journey at 1:00 pm.

In addition, two other events will be arranged on the center court. Federer and Murray in the second half will undoubtedly enter the center court schedule, just like Djokovic and Nadal entering the center court in the first half. There is no suspense, of course, this is also an arrangement that everyone expects

One is the seven-time Wimbledon champion, and the other is the hope of winning the local darling. Even if Djokovic and Nadal meet these two players on the same day, the venue arrangement of the tournament organizing committee is estimated to be different. Concede, at least for the first two matchdays.

The real key lies in the arrangement of Court One.

This year Wimbledon's schedule on the first day of Wimbledon has already been controversial, because Serena Williams was squeezed out of the center court by Sharapova.

Serena Williams, who has successively topped the Australian Open and the French Open in the first half of the year, is still the biggest favorite at Wimbledon this year; not to mention that as the five-time champion of the tournament, the world's number one should also be more respected, but Wimbledon still chooses Sarah. Rapova entered the center court, which also caused a lot of heated discussions after the game.

Come the next day, Wimbledon's schedule sparked controversy again.

Berdych, the runner-up of the 2010 tournament, and Dimitrov, the semi-finalist of last year's tournament, both entered the No. 1 court.

When the schedule was announced, professional tennis reporters exclaimed, and couldn't believe their eyes, because it meant:

Gao Wen, ranked No. 2 in the world, this year's Australian Open champion and French Open semi-finalist, will start his first round at Wimbledon on Court No. 2.

shock!

Some people died, but not completely dead...
