Tennis: Bind Longma at the beginning, double the return

Chapter 436: First Professional Battle; Dead Stick

Summer.

September.

Sea capital city.

Lin Nan and QP arrived at the registration site for the tour.

The Prince of Tennis World Tour is relatively simple.

First register, then compete one stop at a time, and at the end of the tour, the top ten are determined by wins.

The top ten will receive points.

But with Lin Nan and QP's initial points, if they want to directly reach the top 100 of the ATP, they must win the top four in the tour.

The prize money for tours like this is not high, around 100 million US dollars, and the prize money offered by each local tour is different.

In a big country like China, the prize money for a tour can reach 300 million US dollars, so there are many players participating and the intensity is a little higher than that of a normal tour.

Registration point.

Lin Nan and QP just entered the team and lined up.

This time Kiritani did not follow.

The reason is that I have no money and I have to go back to U17 training to earn money, otherwise I can't afford snacks.

As they lined up.

Many reporters took pictures of the two, and countless flashes flashed one after another. The two couldn't help but put on sunglasses.

The other contestants queuing together all showed curious expressions.

When they saw Lin Nan's appearance, most people recognized him.

After all, the news of Lin Nan becoming a professional player caused a lot of buzz, and many media outlets were focusing on this and reporting extensively, so he was very popular.

After the registration is completed.

I didn't have time to leave the registration point.

Reporters immediately surrounded us and asked various questions.

"Mr. Lin Nan, what place do you want to strive for in this tour?"

“As you are known as the best player in the World Cup, what is your outlook for future professional competitions?”

“Are you worried about losing the game?”

.....

All kinds of problems arise one after another.

Lin Nan smiled and said, "My goal is to win the championship. Please don't ask such naive questions. I think the goal of any professional player is to win the championship."

talking.

The two squeezed into the crowd and left.

Back to the hotel.

The two collected and received the competition information.

QP said: "My first opponent is an Australian player ranked 415th in the ATP rankings. What about you?"

Lin Nan opened his phone and was stunned when he saw the message on it.

"My first opponent was a South Korean player ranked 444th in the ATP rankings, and she was also a weak player."

I didn't expect to play against South Koreans in the first game.

I feel a little itchy when I think about it.

However, in order to help Nanjiro heal his illness, he must end the game as soon as possible no matter who he meets.

Although it is not the open tournament yet, he has to force himself to adapt to the fast pace and avoid making any mistakes when the open tournament comes.

QP seemed to have thought of something and said, "The first round of matches will be in three days, so let's just extend our stay for four days."

"okay."

Lin Nan nodded.

The Tour, as the name suggests, means touring the country, with the venue changing for almost every round.

Take Haidu City as the starting point.

Yangdu City, Yadu City, Xiangdu City, Jindu City... As long as you complete 10 rounds of the game, you will play the final round in Kyoto City.

The top ten teams with the most wins will then receive points.

If there is a tie for the win, the winner will be determined by the smaller score.

.....

a few days later.

Lin Nan and QP came to the park where the first round of the competition was held in Haidu City.

There are 12 courts in the arena, and the first round of games will be completed within three days.

Both of them were lucky as they were scheduled to compete on the first day. After the game, they could go to the venue for the second round in advance to familiarize themselves with it.

"Haha~ Lin Nan, I finally found you!"

Just as the two were about to enter the stadium to watch the game, a voice came from the side, which made them feel both familiar and unfamiliar.

The two turned to look.

They saw Xiao Pao, the farm owner they had met in Da Xia before, coming over.

"When I saw your professional player status announced, I knew you would come to participate in this tour and then rush to gain points to participate in the open tournament!"

The shop owner came over, looking excited.

This time I ran here from Yangdu City just for their chance encounter.

"Long time no see, boss."

Lin Nan and the other two greeted each other.

The shop owner was excited: "I bought a package ticket this time. I will follow you throughout the race. When we get to Yangdu City, I will take you back to the farm for dinner!"

Hearing this, QP shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that won't work. There will be urine tests in every game of the tour. We basically eat what the organizing committee prepares, just in case."

"Oh, yes, yes, I almost forgot about this."

"Then wait until you finish your game, remember to come to Yangdu City to take a plane to the lighthouse, and come to my place for a meal first, it's my treat!"

The shop owner is still as enthusiastic as ever.

However, eating there is indeed a bit expensive, but if someone treats you, that’s another matter.

“If I have the chance, I will definitely eat it.”

Lin Nan responded with a smile.

After the tour.

There is less than a week left for the open tournament, and including registration and review, they don’t have much time left.

But it should be enough time to have a meal.

"How about it, are you confident?"

The shop owner asked curiously.

Lin Nan and the other two nodded. If they didn't have confidence, they wouldn't have come here.

The three of them watched the game while chatting.

During this time, QP went down to play a game.

It's a best-of-five format, and the opponent has 14-star strength, which is not weak.

In the best-of-five match, QP won with a big score of 3:0. The first two sets were quite easy.

In the third set, I slacked off for a few games due to physical reasons, but I still won in the end.

After waiting for more than an hour.

Seungri was heard on the radio: "Stadium 7, the match between Group 6 contestants 'Lin Nan' and 'Pu Buting' will start in ten minutes. Please arrive as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Lin Nan walked off the court with his racket.

"Come on, little bro!"

The shop owner waved two balloon sticks.

"I will win."

Lin Nan waved his hand.

Arriving at the competition venue, Lin Nan glanced at Pu Buting, who was also a 14-star player.

Judging from his talent and skills, he should be a speed player.

After warming up, the players from both teams walked onto the field and shook hands at the referee's whistle.

"Lin Nan, who is known as the best player in the World Cup? What a pity, the World Cup is not a professional arena."

"Let me teach you a lesson. As a fellow Asian, I will show mercy when appropriate."

As soon as they shook hands, Pu Buting started talking incessantly, and he couldn't suppress the excitement in his eyes.

Maybe he thought it was a happy thing to meet a rookie who had just become a professional player.

Plus, the childishness on Lin Nan's face has not completely disappeared, and he looks less mature than him. We are sure to win the game today!

"Really? Thank you then."

Lin Nan's tone turned cold.

He originally wanted to say hello, but after seeing the other person's face, he instantly lost interest.

"It's easy to talk about."

Park Buting looked smug.

The referee did not give the two too much time to talk, and soon blew the whistle to start the game: "The game begins, Lin Nan will serve first!"

At this time, the reporters around were ready.

This is Lin Nan’s first battle in the professional arena, and it is very newsworthy!
