On Saturday, in the Wimbledon Tennis Open men's singles semi-final, the tournament's No. 3 seed Zhang Guan eliminated the tennis king Federer and successfully advanced to Sunday's final. And Federer did not achieve Wimbledon's five consecutive championships. In another semi-final, Djokovic announced his withdrawal halfway due to injury, Nadal successfully entered the final, and Djokovic became the first Wimbledon semi-finalist in history to retire due to injury.

When Nadal's opponent Djokovic announced his withdrawal in the third set, the candidates for this year's Wimbledon men's singles finale are also coming out. Zhang Guan and Nadal will meet again in the final after the French Open. In this game, Djokovic was bothered by back and toe injuries, so that he had to give up the chance of never making the finals. It seems that Nadal, who is a little slower today, is getting God's favor, his opponent's early suspension of the game earned him valuable time to recover his strength. You must know that Nadal has played every day since Monday, and there are only two games to average until the fifth set, so the rest time is too precious for him.
The news reports of the three major agencies did not mention the detailed game process of the semi-finals. However, in the eyes of many fans, the finals of the finals were already pre-determined from the moment Zhang Guan defeated Federer. Zhang Guan will defeat Nadal in the final, and then engrave his name on the Champions Challenge Cup.
However, Nadal did not give up, he even told the media that he can win.
"Praise Zhang Guan's No. 1. Hot: Nadal, believes he can win in the final! "
"In the past year, many things have changed, and now I play better than in the past, but I must admit that Zhang Guan is the number one champion of Wimbledon. I will play this with confidence and enthusiasm. In the finals, I will play aggressively, and I also believe that I can win the final victory."
Nadal may also become the second Spanish men's singles player to win Wimbledon since Santana in 1966. He believes that he still has a big gap in the grass game compared to Zhang Guan. Nadal said "Zhang Guan holds a variety of skills in front of the net and can control the speed of the ball very accurately. So I have to perform better than usual in this game on Sunday. For example, my skills in cutting and volleying have improved, but I still have enough room to rise."
...
"Nadal refused to give up!" Zhang Guan looked at the report on the computer screen, and then said, "Also, it is the final, Nadal will not easily give up."
"I think Nadal is feeling a little guilty." Sharapova leaned on Zhang Guan's shoulder, then said, "Nadal is usually a humble person, and his English is not very good, so facing the media, he is always a little shy. Such a declaration of winning on a non-clay court is rare for Nadal. But don't take it lightly tomorrow, it is Nadal after all."
"Relax, wait for Nadal to lose tomorrow, and I will be one US Open away from the Full Slam." Zhang Guan said with a smile.
...
On July 8, the last day of the Wimbledon Tennis Open, the only game today was the men's singles final, Zhang Guan against Nadal.
Due to Zhang Guan's excellent performance in the previous game and the Sampras style of playing in front of the net, almost all professionals are not optimistic about Nadal, which in turn aroused Nadal's fighting spirit.
Nadal played very aggressively in the match between the two sides and launched a strong attack in Zhang Guan's serve, which made the two sides evenly split. Then Nadal even used a small slash to cross the ball to get the breakpoint first.
"Nadal took the lead and he got the breaking point. I didn't expect Nadal to get the breakpoint in this game. It seems that Nadal is also fighting for the championship. He gave Zhang Guan a dismounting power!"
Zhang Guan was also shocked. He didn't expect Nadal to launch a strong attack at the beginning of the game, and he also got a breakpoint.
But Zhang Guan did not give Nadal a chance to break. He showed that he used a strong inner corner to directly serve to score and equalized the score, followed by an outer corner to serve again and scored successfully, and successfully saved his serve.
"It's shocking. Zhang Guan still kept his serve. In retrospect, the situation just now was precarious. Nadal played very aggressively today. I think that in the next serve, Nadal will still use it in this active play!" With the commentator's voice, the second game began.
In the second game, Nadal's serve.
The tennis ball flew over the net. This was an inside corner, which attacked Zhang Guan's backhand. Zhang Guan received the ball in the backhand, but the ball flew out of bounds.
"Top serve?" Zhang Guan was a little surprised. Most people on the grass field will choose a fast flat serve. If the first server fails, the probability of the second serve choosing to cut the hit is also greater, because on the grass, small shots on the court are more powerful, and they are much less used for topspins. This is exactly the case, Zhang Guan did not expect Nadal to use the topspin, so the ball back out of bounds.
The next time he served, Nadal was still on the top serve. Zhang Guan returned the ball to a low quality. Nadal won another goal and the score came to 30-0. Nadal then turned an ACE ball into a score of 40-0. At this time, Nadal held three points.
"40-0, it seems that Nadal won this game. Maybe he will give Zhang Guan a love-game!" the commentator said.
Zhang Guan also foresaw that Nadal's opening performance was very positive.
"It seems that Nadal is well prepared today! He should want to win the game." Zhang Guan quickly began to adjust his mindset, preparing to give Nadal the "resistor" a fatal blow.
