The smoke of Wimbledon has dissipated, and a series of low-level events are currently underway in the tennis world.
While the US Open and the Olympic Games are just around the corner, let's take a look back at Wimbledon. Among them, the two former champions Federer and Murray are characters that cannot be bypassed no matter what.
Although Federer reached the quarterfinals and Murray also played the third round, I believe many fans will still ask: Can't they play better?
This is undoubtedly because the good times of the past have made everyone have more expectations, completely forgetting that the two of them, one is a comeback not long ago, the other is plagued by injuries.
Today, these two colossal statues that have been given high hopes in the grass field are like the slanting sun that is about to set, still clinging to this beautiful field, but they are already powerless for the future.
Yes, their silhouette at Wimbledon is still the most beautiful scenery of the All England Club. It's intoxicating and moving.
In this regard, we can't help but ask: why are they still so tenacious and persistent at the end of their careers? Coach Cahill, who coached Agassi in his final days before retiring, has something to say:
"Every player's motivation to stay on the pitch may be different, but any champion player who is still working hard at this stage actually has one thing in common, which is a pure love for the sport.
I still remember that Andre's last Grand Slam trip was really torturous, but the scenes of those two games against Pavel and Baghdatis, as if they were just yesterday, will never be forgotten.
Andy and Roger are both like that, playing games like Wimbledon is important to these great stars, so why don't we value it equally? They have received so many accolades and worked so hard that we as fans should be satisfied.
Even if they don't play that well, you can criticize their ball for playing badly, but you can't criticize their reasons for sticking with it. ”
Oh, yes! Recently, a number of reporters have repeatedly asked when Murray will retire without knowing the times. The Good Temperamental Englishman did not refute it in person, but the reply was also literal.
Being able to eliminate seeded Bashirashvili and being able to break into wimbledon round of thirty-two in five sets proves that there is still strength.
Although they can't win the championship for the time being, their love of tennis and the game makes them not want to retire prematurely. Why not retire early and with dignity? No one can give a positive answer to this question, because everyone thinks differently.
But for Roger and Andy, and for those who, like them, are still struggling, we deserve high respect!
