Chapter 1627 Old Things Happen Again
"Just now on the court, I have come back with a fierce revenge."
Dimitrov showed off with a smile, but Sharapova glanced at Gawain's knees and asked seriously.
"Did you break his knee?"
-Tanya Harding tried to break Nancy Kerrigan's knee.
Dimitrov turned to look at Gawain, and the two friends exchanged glances, and then both burst into laughter.
Sharapova didn't know why.
Dimitrov quickly explained, "Gao Wen and I were joking about Tanya Harding just now. I didn't expect that you would also come."
Sharapova's face was cold, "I'm not kidding."
Despite this, you can still see the faint smile between Sharapova's eyebrows, and she doesn't look like the iceberg beauty on the court at all.
Gao Wen spread his hands and stretched out his right leg generously, "Okay, okay, take it, take it, at worst I will start training wheelchair tennis from the second half of the season."
This time, even Sharapova couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter.
Dimitrov hugged Sharapova lovingly and laughed with her.
Gao Wen helplessly shook his head slightly and shouted to the surrounding staff and players who were warming up, "Couples are throwing sweets at each other. Unrelated parties should retreat as soon as possible. It's an emergency. It's an emergency. Please retreat as soon as possible."
"Ha ha!"
This time, it was not just Dimitrov and the others. There was a roar of laughter around them. Then, one or two of them started to cheer at Gawain's call, and whistles came and went.
Sharapova, who is usually cold and distant, has always avoided showing affection in public. She rarely goes to Dimitrov's player box to watch games. The most well-known one so far is the fourth match at Wimbledon last year. Strong match, Dimitrov vs. Djokovic.
Surrounded by laughter at this time, Sharapova was also a little cautious and glared at Gawain depressedly.
It turned out that Gawain made a salute gesture, just like watching a good show, which made Sharapova almost unable to catch her breath.
Then, Gawain trotted away from the "crime scene".
Sharapova looked at Gao Wen's back and looked up at Dimitrov with a speechless face, "I still can't understand how you could become friends."
Dimitrov did not joke, but thought about it seriously, "Maybe it's because he has the courage that I lack."
Sharapova opened her mouth, but was unable to refute.
On that side, Gawain's footsteps had gradually moved away, until he reached the end of the corner, turned a corner, and after a pause in his footsteps, he still looked back.
In his eyes, a shallow smile settled down, and he was slightly worried——
If Gawain remembers correctly, in the last life, Sharapova and Dimitrov announced their breakup after Wimbledon.
It was a recipe for disaster for both players.
After that, Sharapova fell into repeated injuries and missed the US Open that year. She came back at the end of the year, but stopped in the semi-finals at the year-end finals; then stopped in the quarter-finals at 201 Serena Williams, and in March Plunged into the biggest crisis of his entire career.
Sharapova received a letter from the ITF and was informed that the heart disease drugs she had been taking for a long time were listed as banned drugs. However, her team did not update the list in time, which caused her to fail the drug test at the Australian Open and was eventually suspended for two games. Year.
Although she later appealed and the suspension period was shortened to fifteen months, this still became a watershed in her career. She suffered from numerous injuries and was never able to return to the top ranks. After being eliminated in the first round of Wimbledon in 2018, she He never competed again and announced his retirement in 2020.
Dimitrov was also having a hard time in his prime. He stopped in the second round of the US Open that year, and it was still bad at 201. He was in the third round of the Australian Open, the first round of the French Open, the third round of Wimbledon, and the US Open. In the fourth round, despite the occasional good performance, it was never consistent.
It was not until 2017, after establishing a stable relationship again, that Dimitrov got rid of the two-year slump and ushered in the best and most successful season of his career.
Looking back at Wimbledon in 2015, neither Sharapova nor Dimitrov, including all professionals and fans, could have predicted that the careers of these golden girls would end here. The watershed has undergone earth-shaking changes, which is inevitably sad.
Gawain is no exception.
In the past, as a spectator and a fan, when reading news, those words were just a story, a few words of emotion, that was all, and I turned around and forgot about it.
Now, Dimitrov is his friend, and Sharapova is half a friend. Everything is no longer a story, but a part of his life, and the disturbing thoughts in his mind can no longer be controlled.
Many years after their breakup, Sharapova finally openly shared with the media the details of her breakup with Dimitrov when she published her autobiography.
According to the original historical trajectory, Dimitrov lost to Gasquet in three sets at Wimbledon in 2015, and his career fell into the darkest and lowest moment, which almost defeated him.
After losing, Dimitrov was very, very fragile. One night, he took out a book that recorded Wimbledon's previous championships, turned it over quietly, and then saw a photo, which was exactly in the middle of 2014. Photos of Sharapova watching Dimitrov compete in the final.
Dimitrov looked at Sharapova with tears in his eyes, "Did you see that? It means everything to me, seeing you in my box, next to my mom."
At that moment, Sharapova realized that Dimitrov's love was too strong and too heavy. He placed their love in the most important position in his life; but for her, she still longed for it. To create more miracles on the field, her victory and defeat are the focus of her life.
Sharapova admitted that she would go to watch the semifinals in 2014 mainly because she stopped in the fourth round.
The same photo was a moment of glory for Dimitrov, but for Sharapova it was a reminder of her early elimination.
In fact, it was the same in 2015. Dimitrov stopped in the third round and collapsed completely; but Sharapova lost to Serena Williams again and stopped in the semi-finals. The bitterness of defeat was already uncomfortable enough, and she lost consecutively. Serena Williams's pain was even more indescribable, but Sharapova needed to spend energy to comfort Dimitrov.
It was at that moment that Sharapova realized that they had taken different paths.
It was Sharapova who proposed the breakup.
Later, Sharapova said that she still loved Dimitrov at that time, but unfortunately, the right person and the right emotion met at the wrong time.
Not to mention Dimitrov, it took him eighteen months to get over that emotional injury. Sharapova has always been special to him.
Even the bystanders couldn't help but feel sorry for the end of that relationship.
