Straight down three is not easy! Djokovic reached the Australian Open quarterfinals but shouted “I want to lose” due to pressure
Men’s tennis king Djokovic is preparing to challenge for the 25th Grand Slam in his career. In the top 16 of the men’s singles at the Australian Open, he defeated the French player Mannarino in straight games, reaching the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam for the 58th time in his career. It was only in the third set of this game that Djokovic encountered turbulence. After the game, he admitted that he considered giving up the third set to relieve his tension; but he firmly denied that he was tired and had no plans to retire.
Australian Open appearance: “Djokovic.”
World golf champion Djokovic, who is on his way to 25 Grand Slams, faced French player Mannarino in the top 16 of the men’s singles at the Australian Open.
It’s just that Djokovic probably didn’t expect that he would win easily in this match with great momentum.
In the end, Qiao Shuai defeated Mannarino in straight games 6-0, 6-0, 6-3 and advanced to the quarter-finals, tying Swiss Express Federer’s record of 58 Grand Slam quarter-finals. But Qiao Shuai said after the game that he didn’t want to win, he just wanted to lose.
Serbian golf champion Djokovic: “I really wanted to lose the third set because I was so tight and kept piling up. I needed to take a breath to refocus.”
Is 36-year-old Qiao Shuai tired? He said he just needed to take a breather and didn’t want to retire yet.
Serbian golf king Djokovic: “If I feel that I am not capable of competing for a Grand Slam with the top players, then I may consider retirement.”
It’s just that the rival that Qiao Shuai might have faced in the quarterfinals, the Greek tennis player Tsitsipas, lost to the American player Fritz in the round of 16 ahead of schedule and was eliminated.
Greek tennis player Tsitsipas: “It feels very painful. There are only a few glorious moments in my career, but there are many more painful moments.”
The moment of glory gradually shifts to the rising stars in tennis.
The 19-year-old American tennis star Gauff, riding on the momentum of last year’s US Open women’s singles championship, defeated the Polish female player Frisch in straight two and broke into the top 8 of the Australian Open women’s singles for the first time in her career.
Her family gives Gauff the strength to win her second Grand Slam, currently ranked No. 4 in the world.
