Chapter 1789 Balanced Distribution

In the top half, the schedule in the first week is more difficult than the second week.

In the lower half, the second week's schedule is more difficult than the first week.

To sum it up in one sentence, this is an extremely balanced but extremely extreme lottery list. A quick glance at it is enough to make professionals’ brains climax.

Zone 3/4, "Federer VS Wawrinka"——

Death Partition.

In fact, you can already smell the storm from the quarter-finals. Just when people thought that the Swiss Derby would be the biggest highlight of this division, the names that Gao Wen pulled out continued to refresh their understanding, so much so that the media center Serbian and British journalists all kept their mouths shut.

Take a breath.

Federer faced Isner in the top 16, and Wawrinka faced Simon in the top 16. You can already feel the confrontation and impact from these two matchups, but the real highlight is yet to come:

Tsonga. Monfils. Troyki. Carlovich. Veseli.

A series of names can easily put the 3/4 area into flames. Putting aside other things, no one can underestimate the three French Musketeers of Tsonga, Monfils and Simon.

In terms of explosive power, impact, and threat, Tsonga and Monfils are the best among the non-top 16 seeds. Now that they have joined forces with Simon to enter the same division, Federer and Wawrinka's Swiss Derby quarter-finals have changed. Hengsheng, both players need to withstand severe tests.

Of course, if these players want to get in front of Federer or Wawrinka, they also have their own tests to pass, and it's not that simple.

It can be said that the real test of this division begins with the warm-up in the third round, and then enters the main topic in the fourth round. The further back, the more dangerous it becomes.

Of course, that's not all.

Overall, the first two and three rounds still lack some highlights. The only exception is Federer's first-round draw.

The situation is slightly different from that of Nadal and Murray. Federer's first-round opponent was Argentina's L-Mayer, and the impact did not seem to be that strong. However, in last year's Shanghai Masters, Mayer had a hand against the Swiss King. Get five match points.

Not only the Swiss media, but also Federer's supporters all over the world couldn't help but sigh when they saw this draw——

There is no doubt that this is the Death Zone.

Involuntarily, people think of Djokovic in April and May. After losing the French Open final, he briefly stayed away from the court to rest and adjust for a period of time. Then he embarked on a journey to defend his Wimbledon title under tremendous pressure, and finally defeated Federer with an unparalleled performance. Defending the title can be described as soul-stirring.

The same seems to be true for Federer now. He briefly stayed away from the court after losing at the peak of his confidence in the Wimbledon final. He temporarily said goodbye to tennis. After a break of nearly two months, he regained his motivation. Cincinnati defeated Murray and Andy Lau without losing a set. Djokovic's performance in winning the championship was perfect.

Maybe... Federer will also copy Djokovic's route and win his 18th Grand Slam championship trophy in New York?

As a result, a bucket of cold water was poured down directly, and a death zone lottery form was placed in front of him, which made people laugh and cry.

Not to mention the Swiss media, even Yu Jia and the others smiled bitterly——

Should Gawain's luck in drawing lots be said to be blessed?

From all indications, the first three divisions have their own challenges. Does this mean that Gao Wen has drawn a good draw for his 4/4 divisions?

Not necessarily.

Other divisions have the challenges of other divisions, and Zone 4/4 has the situation of Zone 4/4.

Strictly speaking, balance and traps are the biggest highlight of this year's draw; it is also a main theme throughout the entire season, from the Challenger League to Youth Storm, and even Djokovic's fluctuations and Murray's. After recovery, ATP has indeed shown a situation where a hundred schools of thought are contending.

For Gao Wen fans, Gao Wen's luck is neither good nor bad, and it is a bit dumbfounding.

It is precisely because of this that the neutral fans collectively reveled and gave Gawain thumbs up, shouting "European emperor for generations" loudly.

District 4/4, "Gawain VS Berdych".

From a purely quarter-final perspective, Gauvin got the top pick, while Berdych is not doing well recently. The downturn continued from the grass court season to the US Open series, and his performance was very bad; in addition, Gauvin vs. Berdych He always performs well. Once they meet, Gao Wen should have a greater chance of winning.

However, it is not.

Gawain's opponent in the top 16 is Goffin, and Berdych's opponent in the top 16 is Gasquet. The latter two players are both on the rise recently, and their strength, state, and confidence are all at a small level. Xiaofeng is also a representative of the Challenger League and Youth Storm.

Moreover, there are no giants in this division, and the highest-ranked seed Gao Wen still lacks some intimidation. Coupled with unexpected injuries, his dominance has been further shaken. It is still unknown how he can perform in New York this time. , it is an incentive for other competitors.

Be it Goffin, Gasquet, Agut, Tomic and other players ranked in the 20s and 30s in the world can see hope, especially with Chady and Dolgopolo Depending on husband's performance in the US Open series, maybe they can both burst out with more energy.

These players are the real danger.

It can be seen at this time that the overall draw for the second half of the second half, the top 16 matchups, the top eight matchups, and the top four matchups, is very tough. It can be said that every game is a tough battle. It also echoes the top half; but thankfully, the other non-seeded players in the first three rounds are not strong as a whole.

In this division led by Gao Wen, low-ranked seeds and unseeded players generally lack some impact, and there are not many players worth mentioning.

What really deserves attention are the two veterans who are entering the end of their careers, Hewitt and Fish.

Hewitt has not announced his retirement plan yet, but every time he comes to the Grand Slam, the topic of retirement has become an unavoidable focus at press conferences.

Hewitt's first Grand Slam trophy in his career was the 2001 US Open. His first career breakthrough in a Grand Slam was also at the 2000 US Open. He last broke through the third round threshold in a Grand Slam. It was at the 2013 US Open, and all the good memories are related to this place.

Returning to his blessed land this time, Hewitt also hopes to break into the third round again after two years. Judging from the draw, he has some opportunities.

Fish, who is affectionately called "Big Fish" by fans, has determined that he will retire after this year's US Open. This will be his last competition.

As one of the representatives of the golden generation of American tennis, Fish's retirement will also mark the end of this generation of players. Next, American tennis will need the first generation of players to carry the banner. It is conceivable that this year's US Open will welcome Have a sad moment.

Unlike Hewitt, who is still eager to win, Fish is just looking forward to stepping onto the US Open for the last time to bring an end to his career. As for winning or losing, it is no longer the point. A farewell, a full stop, and a last look back are. .

The hot topic inevitably focuses on these two veterans.
