At 12:00 noon today, the second semi-final of the ATP500 Acapulco station began, against the only New York Open champion and Spanish god of war Nadal, the only champion of the Australian Open in the 2022 season, and the world's first post-90s world number one and the new Russian Tsar Medvedev, who is about to ascend to the world's first throne. This is the sixth time in their careers that the two have met in their second tournament in the second tournament of their careers, after a difficult and thrilling pinnacle showdown at the 2022 Australian Open this season.
The sixth season of the Battle of Name, hardships and hardships, can be imagined!
The 2022 Australian Open final proves once again how difficult it will be for the old king Nadal and the new generation of Medvedev to beat each other! In addition to the first meeting between the two in their careers, the final of the 2019 Rogers Cup Masters in Canada, because Medvedev was still a rookie who reached the final of a major competition for the first time, Nadal won two sets against his opponent, and in the next four meetings, both of them hit the decider, the situation was glued, and the process was difficult. Especially in the last three meetings, the two are reversed to defeat the opponent, difficult and difficult, can be imagined. In the 2022 Australian Open final, Nadal lost two and chased three, staged a stunning reversal, achieved a double-lap grand slam, and created a great cause of 21 grand slam titles in men's tennis. The hardships and hardships in between are extraordinary; the thrills in between are vividly remembered.
Today, the sixth season of The Battle of Name, it will also be a very difficult game. Nadal said: Everyone knows how hard the match against Medvedev is. He is a very complex opponent who pursues the extreme and has been playing well. Now he's in good shape, confident and the new world number one. Before the Australian Open final, everyone saw how difficult it was! This time it will definitely be a fierce game again, very difficult. It was very difficult for me, but I loved it and I was excited to play against an opponent like that. Medvedev said: This confrontation is a bit like a battle of revenge, and it will be my chance to get revenge. I learned a lot from Federer, Nadal, Ted Jr., Murray, and when they lose a game, they always try to get revenge. This time I will take the lesson of the australian open final reversal and then face Nadal as they once did.
With the current world's no. 1 Small German unexpectedly losing the 1/4 final of the ATP500 Dubai station, the men's tennis world is about to change next week, and Medvedev is about to become the new world number one, the first world number one after the 90s. As the Czech post-90s player Veselli, who just defeated Xiaode, said: The world's first substitution, this is great. Xiao De is a great champion, but the men's tennis world needs a new world number one, and a new generation is rising, which I think is great!
With a new world number one duel coming soon, Nadal knew he had to invest 100 percent in order to have a chance. He said, I know very well that only by playing at my best level can I win, and that's what I'm trying to do. I had to fight my aggression and fight bravely to the end.
How will Medvedev learn the bitter lesson of the 2022 Australian Open final? As the new world number one, Medvedev certainly hopes to bless himself with the glory of defeating Nadal. However, this will undoubtedly make him feel stressed and nervous. Just like when Nadal faced the goal of setting a new record of 21 Grand Slam titles in men's tennis in the 2022 Australian Open final, the pressure was so intense that the first set was completely out of shape and quickly collapsed. Ten-year-old Medvedev first to the top of the world, and facing the Spanish god of war Nadal, eager to revenge success, will not be trembling, chaotic? Moreover, in the 2022 Australian Open final, the reason why Medvedev was tragically reversed was that the active attack was not resolute enough, and the batting lacked aggression! Could it be that in less than a month of facing Nadal again, he dared to doubt his habitual playing style of playing with the bottom line, so as to change his strategy and tactics, play aggressive, and take the initiative to attack?
The big war is about to start, and fans will wait and see! (Source: Tennis House Author: Colorful Bean Powder)
