Chapter 374: US Open Top Seed

"Zhang Guan's hands are very hot. Just now that layup, Wang Shipeng, and Sun Yue guarded him at the same time, he can both score buckets, this does not mean he has an amateur basketball player's performance, I think it belongs to a player in the national team. The basket is nothing more than that!" Liu Wei said.

Zhu Fangyu lowered his voice, "There is less gold, our national team doesn't rely on a strong impact layup, don't you and I both know that? Domestic players' layups are not as fierce as Zhang Guan's, this kind of layup is completely the same as that American.."

Zhu Fangyu lowered his voice and said a name, "Wade!"

"NBA's "Flash" Wade? You are exaggerating too much! I can't see someone else who can break through quickly, let's just say, Wade!" Liu Wei said.

Zhu Fangyu shook his head, "Wade and Zhang Guan are about the same height. Wade does look stronger in size, but considering Zhang Guan is a sprinter, his muscles must be stronger. Perhaps the difference in weight between the two is not very big. Zhang Guan's confrontation will not be worse than Wade, Zhang Guan is not weaker than Wade in speed and explosiveness, and even stronger, and Zhang Guan's layup is very accurate! Wade's drive into the paint is very similar to his."

Liu Wei thought about it for a while, as if it was the case. He nodded silently, and then said, "It's a pity that Zhang Guan didn't come to practice basketball! If he comes to connect with basketball, he may become China's "Flash"! At least at his speed, don't worry about being forced by the audience."

Zhu Fangyu continued to whisper, "Should I persuade Zhang Guan to come and play basketball in our men's basketball?"

"Let Zhang Guan play basketball, it's not possible! He is the world's first flying person, why would he want to play basketball!" Liu Wei continued, "Even if he is willing to come, playing basketball does not take a day or two to master. It can take five or six years to train a qualified professional player! Even if it is the CUBA college student's league player, there are very few who can enter the CBA? Like us, which one of us has not practiced basketball when we were in sports."

"Yao and I have said that Zhang Guan is different from us. He is a real genius! You see Zhang Guan moved from track and field to tennis and took three consecutive Grand Slams and now ranks first in the world. Maybe he came to play basketball, and it would take three to five months to reach the level of professional athletes!" Zhu Fangyu continued, "Let's finish the game first, and then let's go and ask, you will never miss one or two pieces of meat! And I think Zhang Guan also likes playing basketball."

...

"Not ready to play basketball?" Zhu Fangyu confirmed again.

Looking at Zhu Fangyu with a serious face, Zhang Guan smiled and shook his head. He knew that Zhu Fangyu sometimes had a temper tantrum, but he was a very enthusiastic person.

"It's okay if I want to play basketball, but I don't have to start from the bottom. I have to take away your starting position on the national team!" Zhang Guan said as a joke.

"The starting player of the national team? This is not what I said!" Zhu Fangyu didn't seem to hear Zhang Guan's joke, he sighed, and then said happily, "Well, when do you want to play two-handed basketball, come to find me!"

Wang Shipeng, who was packing up on the other side, pressed his DVD, but nothing happened.

"It seems to be dead!" Wang Shipeng threw the DVD directly into the bag.

...

On August 25, the World Athletics Championships were held in Osaka, Japan, and Zhang Guan had already flown to New York in the United States at this time. In preparation for the US Tennis Open that began on August 27, he would naturally not go to Osaka to participate in the World Championships in Athletics.

Without Zhang Guan's participation, the national track and field team lost a lot of colors and even won fewer gold medals. Fortunately, Liu Feiren was strong enough. He won the men's 110-meter hurdles and achieved the Olympic championship, became the World Championship champion, and the world record holder. This is also the only gold medal of the national team in this World Championships.

However, the Tian Xie Association and even the top managers of the sports team are not satisfied with the performance of the sub-national team. In recent years, the development of domestic track and field has been smooth, so both the official and the private have great expectations for this track and field world championships. However, a gold medal is far from everyone's expectations. If Liu Feiren's gold medal is not a shame, it is estimated that the field management center will be roasted by the media.

Of course, Zhang Guan did not pay attention to this year's World Championships. He had already flown to New York to participate in this year's US Open.

The venues of the US Open and the Australian Open are hard ground, but the two types of hard ground are more different. The Australian Open is a plastic hard ground, which is also the most common type of tennis court in China; and the US Open is a concrete hard ground. It is the cement field that Changhong said.

Of course, the cement field of the official game can't just be barely paved with a layer of cement, and there will be a thin layer of plastic cover or color paint. The nature of this cover determines the height and speed of the ball rebound. The ball speed of the cement field is slightly higher than that of the plastic cover. Because the surface is relatively smooth, the ball will rush forward after landing, and there will be no obvious pause like the clay field. However, the vertical component of the kinetic energy of the cement field will have a great loss, so the ball will not bounce very high, which makes the ball on the cement field bounce relatively flat after landing.

Although the ball speed is not as fast as Wimbledon in this kind of cement field, it is still very suitable for playing in front of the net. At the same time, the violent serve can also be more destructive on the cement floor. Once Sampras took the championship four times in the US Open.

After Sampras, Federer was undoubtedly the ruler of the US Open. Since 2004, Federer has won the US Open for three consecutive years, and this year is when Federer would hit the US Open four-game winning streak.

...

Zhang Guan is currently ranked first in the world, so he has undoubtedly become the number one seed player in the US Open. According to the rules, the position of the seed player is fixed, so Zhang Guan is ranked first in the quarter of this time. Locations.

In the hotel, Coach Zhang pointed to the computer screen and said, "The US Open group is out. The schedule may be a bit difficult for you!"

Zhang Guan came to the computer and stared at the group while saying, "This time I am the number one seed! The first time I participated as the number one seed, didn't it mean that the number one seed was taken care of? My path to promotion should be very simple!"

"The first few rounds were very flat. You must not have encountered any seed player in the first two rounds. In the fourth round, at most, you will meet No. 13 seed Gasquet, the Frenchman, that you're defeated." Coach Zhang signaled Zhang Guan scrolled down the webpage and said, "But in the quarter-finals, you may encounter No. 5 seed, Roddick! He is the 2003 US Open champion, and his serve is extremely powerful. The Wes Cup semi-finals set a serve of 245 kilometers per hour, which is also the fastest service record in the world. Roddick's style of play is very suitable for the US Open, and Roddick is also an American. Here is his home court."

"Oh?" Zhang Guan's face suddenly showed a happy look.

"Why? Are you looking forward to playing with Roddick?" Coach Zhang asked, somewhat puzzled.

"No!" Zhang Guan shook his head, "I am looking forward to breaking the world record! Especially in front of the world record holder."
