Of the four Grand Slams,
The French Open was undoubtedly the most exciting one, just like its fiery red court.
The venue was a red clay court,
So it was also called a red court tennis match.
Because it was played on slow clay, patient stalemate, strong top spin, and fast running were considered the main weapons to win the championship here.
And the best of five matches often lasted for hours, which was a severe test of the players' physical fitness and willpower.
Spanish and South American players, who were good at playing on red courts, had excellent records here.
Of course, Tezuka Kunimitsu was an exception here.
Many people still couldn't forget the French Open championship a year ago.
Because no one would have thought,
That this seemingly thin young man from the East would pick up the championship trophy in the end.
It was as if he had broken a convention,
It was like a legend, a dramatic victory.
Because of the uniqueness of the venue, many famous players who won here were unable to win the other three Grand Slams in their lives. At the same time, many players, even the kings of the other three Grand Slams, were unable to hold their trophies in Paris.
This was the uniqueness of the French Open, the unique challenge brought by the clay court.
Tezuka Kunimitsu's victory a year ago made the French Open remember him,
But he lost to his junior in the final of the Australian Open at the beginning of the year.
This also aroused many people's suspicions. Did Tezuka Guoguang become complacent after obtaining the Golden Mangekyo?
So after winning the Golden Slam,
He immediately lost to his own junior.
But in any case, the person standing in the final this time was still Tezuka Kunimitsu.
The Spaniards didn't gain any advantage against him. Raphael was also defeated by Tezuka in various ways, including many of his Spanish compatriots who secretly hated him.
After the game, Raphael complained to Tezuka and Echizen. What were you doing, a senior and a junior?
The Spaniards were all defeated by you two!
In the end, even the Spanish prodigy couldn't save the face of the Spanish players, because he also lost!
In the end, Longma lost to the local French.
William was currently ranked eighth in the world. Longma was still far behind.
Young man, you still need to work hard!
The net of law and whatnot, as expected of MADA.
mada
dane！
Longma angrily drank the ponta in his hand.
There was no way he was going to admit that he had always lost at the Net of Law … The Net of Law was not on his side, was it?
After Roger's retirement, Novak's ranking rose. He was now in first place, followed by the young Englishman, Andy, and the Spanish prodigy, Raphael.
Tezuka's ranking wasn't as high as theirs because he was still a newbie.
Tezuka's opponents in the finals of the French Open had ranged from Raphael to Novak to Roger. Tezuka's opponents had ranged from Raphael to Novak to Roger, and even Viet Zen. This was the first time he had met Andy in the finals.
In the past two years, a strange phenomenon had occurred in the finals of the four Grand Slam tournaments. Every time it came to the finals, it would be Tezuka versus someone else.
Although it felt like Tezuka Kunimitsu was almost invincible, it really made people complain.
In particular, Tezuka's opponents were incompetent.
It was probably because everything had been going well recently (?).
Cheering for a Girlfriend (?).
Because of this, Tezuka made it to the final without any hiccups. Compared to the others, his progress in the clay court of the French Open was much smoother.
Therefore, he also maintained a good mood and won the finals …
"…" Everyone was speechless.
Most of the players in the hotel already knew that Tezuka Kunimitsu's girlfriend was here, but whether or not they saw her was another matter.
Therefore, Tezuka Kunimitsu's good mood was more or less understandable … right?
Bastard!
She's your girlfriend and the champion. That's enough!
You can't make people jealous at the same time!
No matter what other people said, how they looked at him, how they were jealous, envious, and hateful, Tezuka felt that he was in great condition, so it was understandable that he won the tournament, right?
Therefore, tabloid reporters became the most excited existence in recent times.
God knows how difficult it was to dig up news about Tezuka Kunimitsu!
He was being watched by newspaper groups all over the world. What was so strange about him participating in a tournament? Before the tabloids could take action, the big newspapers had already published all kinds of news. Even if he won the Grand Slam last year, it had nothing to do with them. The whole world was publishing it. Who was afraid that they wouldn't know?
Finally, Tezuka Kunimitsu arrived in France, and the European tabloids began to act. Wasn't he finally in their territory? How could they not seize the opportunity?
European tabloids were the most developed in the world. Every country had one. The tabloids' ability to dig up news was also very strong. Many people were a little afraid of them.
It was fine if he was in France now, but the most maddening thing was when he was in England.
The English tabloids deserved to be called the world's number one!
Not only was it "unique," but its circulation was also quite considerable. At the same time, it was criticized.
In short, the English "love and hate" the tabloids. Now, people all over the world "love and hate" them, especially famous people!
The top tabloids in the UK were The Sun, The Daily Mirror, The Daily Star, The Daily Express, and the "compact newspapers" with black mastheads. On the UK newsstands, the tabloids, the "compact newspapers" and the big newspapers were placed together, but they were clearly separated.
Readers could distinguish tabloids from other newspapers by the bright red masthead on the front page, the big headlines, and the large photos.
Of course, Tezuka had not yet arrived in England. He was now in France.
However, Wimbledon was at the end of June … At that time, he would inevitably have to experience it. Because before he won the championship last year, the English tabloids' attention was not fully focused on him. And this year, when he went to England again, his title had become "Youngest Grand Slam Winner in History." At that time, no English tabloid would let him go.
Especially now that his girlfriend had been exposed!
The tabloids' attention was never on the competition, but on the scandal.
It was hard to dig up news about Tezuka Kunimitsu's scandal. How could they let it go when it came out together?
And Tezuka had never covered up this issue.
Tezuka Kunimitsu was a person with a poker face at first glance. The facts proved that even when he won the championship, he did not smile. This Asian man was strict by nature, had a good style, and had very regular habits. He was not like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old teenager!
If you want to dig up news about him — dream on!
The tabloids also had a love-hate relationship with Tezuka — because this person was born to be a mobile news repository. Female fans all over the world loved him. There was nothing to say about his good looks, and his character was also serious and rigorous. At first glance, one could tell that he was a good man. What was worse was that his tennis skills were very high. At the age of seventeen, he was crowned with the title of "The Youngest Golden Slam in History"!
Young, strong, handsome, and strict men were the favorite of female fans!
The key was, of course, that he did not have a girlfriend!
As for the men, Tezuka Kunimitsu was the idol of the teenagers. He was the target of the sighs of his peers (which could be understood as envy, jealousy, and hatred). He was the junior that the seniors praised.
If they could really dig up something, it would be a great harvest!
In the past, Tezuka did not give them a chance. Now, the opportunity was in front of them — those who did not seize it were fools!
Therefore, on the streets of France, colorful tabloids of all sizes were freshly published. The theme was — Tezuka Kunimitsu's girlfriend!
Although they were not as powerful as the British tabloids, the French tabloids were unstoppable this time!
Everyone was guessing who Tezuka Kunimitsu's girlfriend was, whether it was a rumor or the truth. As a result, the attention paid to Tezuka winning the French Open again decreased.
Of course, the players staying in the hotel knew a little about the situation, but would they say anything?
Who would be so tasteless as to reveal it to the tabloids?
If they really did that, they would not be able to survive in this industry. Sooner or later, they would be despised to death!
Unless you had a grudge against Tezuka Kunimitsu, it would be too disgusting!
Sooner or later, your own scandals will also be brought to the headlines of the tabloids!
Everyone had "professional ethics." The men would definitely keep their mouths shut. Of course, it was hard to say for the women.
In any case, Tezuka remained unmoved in this "sensational" scandal until the end of the finals.
Before the match, he did not say anything, whether to admit or deny it.
Besides watching the match, Rukawa Sakura basically stayed in the hotel and did not go out. It was very difficult for the tabloids to dig up anything.
Until after the game, when he was interviewed, there were reporters who kept asking this question, and Tezuka didn't avoid it.
Facing the camera and microphone, Tezuka revealed a rare smile, which almost scared all the reporters out of their wits.
"Yes, my girlfriend came to watch my match."
"!!!" All the reporters were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
"What is your girlfriend's name?"
"When did you two get together?"
"How did you two meet?"
"Tezuka, is your girlfriend Japanese?"
…
Tezuka did not say anything. He directly walked past the reporters in the direction of the exit.
There was no need to hide it. Tezuka Kunimitsu already had a girlfriend. Tezuka Kunimitsu only liked Rukawa Sakura.
The whole world could bear witness to his determination.
Tezuka was very determined. He wanted to be with Rukawa Sakura for the rest of his life.
Of course, he would not tell the crazy media that his girlfriend was Rukawa Sakura. He would only make it clear that he was already taken.
One step at a time, until they could go public.
And at that time, they should be getting married.
Tezuka's lips curled into a smile.
Rukawa Sakura lowered the brim of her hat in the audience.
Kunimitsu, you guy …
But she also curled the corners of her mouth into a smile.
So be it.
In this life, it would be him.
After the French Open, the whole world was full of reports that Tezuka Kunimitsu already had a girlfriend.
The men did not have much of a reaction, but the women were all envious and jealous. Gnashing their teeth was not enough to express their feelings.
But what did this have to do with Tezuka and Rukawa Sakura?
In this sensational report, Tezuka and Rukawa Sakura were still as calm as ever.
It was as if their relationship had always been as calm as water, but it was warm and warm.
