Chapter 289 The runner-up couple?

On the thirteenth match day of the Australian Open, the women's singles final was held at the Rod Laver Stadium. This is a very special game for both sides.

For Sharapova, this is her first time to enter the final of the Australian Open women's singles. Sharapova, who just won the US Open last year, is of course aiming to win the championship. For Serena Williams, long-term injuries made her only participate in four races last year, which also made Serena Williams questioned, and she urgently needs a Grand Slam champion to justify her name.

In the first game between the two sides, Serena Williams played very actively in her serve. She continued to use her serve and active offense to score, and easily kept her serve. Sharapova, on the other hand, was out of shape and made two mistakes in her serve, which was broken by Serena Williams at the beginning of the game. Serena Williams took a 2-0 lead as soon as she came up.

In the third game of both sides, Serena Williams gave Sharapova a love-game. In the fourth game, Serena Williams received the serve three times in a row and gave Sharapova another love-game. In the fifth game, although Serena Williams made many mistakes, she still kept her serve; in the sixth game, Sharapova finally kept her serve, which was the only game she won in the first set.

In the end Sharapova lost the first set 6-1.

In the first game of the second set, Sharapova made a double error at the beginning, then returned the ball to the net twice, and was broken by Serena Williams. Although Sharapova got a break point in the second game, Serena Williams Mus eventually kept his serve. In the third game, Sharapova's serve finally improved, but too many mistakes in the process of receiving the ball caused her to lose another game.

In the next four games, both sides kept their serve, and the game came to 5-2. And then, it was Serena Williams' serve to win the game. As long as Serena Williams manages to hold serve, he will win the entire game.

Serena Williams did not disappoint the audience, successfully kept her serve and won the set 6-2.

6-1/6-2. This score was not like a contest of the same level at all. Looking at the final score, Sharapova looked lonely. She didn't understand until the end of the game why she lost so simply.

And Serena Williams looked up to the sky and howled. Last year's injury caused Serena Williams' world ranking to drop to 81st, and this is also the first Grand Slam game that Serena Williams participated in after returning from injury. She made it all the way to the final as an unseeded player , and won the championship trophy, which swept away the depression in her heart. Serena Williams responded to those doubts with a Grand Slam title, and she looks like she is back to her prime.

At the award ceremony, Sharapova held the runner-up trophy in her hand and smiled very reluctantly. Not far away, Zhang Guan sighed helplessly. History is still going on according to the original process. Sharapova's ten-year invincibility against Serena Williams is just the beginning.

...

"Australian Open's first runner-up couple is about to be born! "

"In today's Australian Open women's singles match, Serena Williams defeated the top seed Sharapova 2-0. It is a pity that Sharapova won the runner-up, and tomorrow In the men's singles final, Sharapova's boyfriend Zhang Guan is about to challenge Federer, the king of tennis. The result of this match should be no suspense. Couples have won the runner-up in the men's singles and women's singles of the Australian Open, which has never happened before, and the first runner-up couple of the Australian Open is about to be born!"

"However, Zhang Guan and Sharapova are still very young. Sharapova, who is less than 20 years old, has already won two Grand Slam titles at Wimbledon and the US Open, while Zhang Guan, who is less than 21 years old, is the first Participating in professional tennis competitions, they entered the Grand Slam finals, they all have unparalleled talents, the future is limitless, the future belongs to them, maybe they really have a chance to become the next Agassi couple!"

The Agassis refer to the American tennis star Andre Agassi and his wife, the German tennis star Steffi Graf. Both their husband and wife are "Golden Slam" winners, which means that they have not only won the four Grand Slam champions in their sports careers, but also won the Olympic champions. In addition to Agassi and his wife, other players who have won the "Golden Slam" in history include Nadal and Serena Williams. It can be said that Agassi and his wife are legends in the tennis world.

...

Seeing this headline, Zhang Guan hurriedly closed the website. Now Sharapova is very concerned about this Australian Open runner-up. If Sharapova reads this report, it will definitely irritate her.

"Sure enough, the media doesn't think highly of you. It's the same as when I participated in the US Open final eighteen years ago. No one thought highly of me!" The person who spoke was a middle-aged man of Chinese origin sitting in front of Zhang Guan.

This middle-aged man is coach Zhang Depei.

Zhang Depei had just arrived in Melbourne, and when he got off the plane, he got Zhang Guan to advance to the Australian Open final. He immediately came to join Zhang Guan non-stop, hoping to help Zhang Guan in the next match.

"Coach, you should have been seventeen years old when you won the US Open men's singles championship!" Zhang Guan said to Zhang Depei.

"Well, seventeen years and three months! At that time, no one thought that a seventeen-year-old youth, and a Chinese, could win the US Open men's singles championship!" Zhang Depei seemed to be recalling, and he continued: "In In the United States, there are very few athletes born among Chinese Americans, so I was looked down upon by everyone, and many people laughed at me, saying that I should hold a cooking spatula in my hand, not a tennis racket... "

Zhang Guan listened silently, while Zhang Depei went on to say: "However, I won. I defeated the Swedish famous player Edberg, who was very powerful at that time, and won the final championship."

When Zhang Depei said this, he suddenly looked up at Zhang Guan, and then said: "No one was optimistic about me back then, but I won the US Open championship. I have experienced all this personally, so I firmly believe that you can do it too. You can beat Federer and win the Australian Open!"

Zhang Guan was a little surprised, he didn't expect the new coach to be so optimistic about himself. But the next moment, Zhang Guan immediately realized that coach Zhang Depei was encouraging himself.

Zhang Guan and Zhang Depei have only known each other for a day. Zhang Depei has no idea of ​​Zhang Guan's strength and technical characteristics. This time, his opponent is Federer. Therefore, it is difficult for Zhang Depei to give Zhang Guan guidance in terms of technical guidance and tactical play. , all he can do is to encourage Zhang Guan as much as possible.

Zhang Guan couldn't help sighing in his heart: "Coach Zhang Depei has only been here for the first day, and he has started to perform the duties of a coach. He is really a competent coach!"
