There have been plenty of big upsets this year on the ATP Challenger Tour, but Tung-Lin Wu pulled off arguably the biggest one of 2016 at the $125,000 ATP Challenger Tour event in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The 18 year old from Chinese Taipei, a wild card currently ranked No. 1,748 in the Emirates ATP Rankings, shocked world No. 131 Denis Kudla in the opening round, 7-5, 7-6(8). With a difference of 1,617 spots, it’s the biggest upset of the year by ranking on the ATP Challenger Tour. 吴东霖在高雄海硕盃挑战赛首轮击退排名第 131 名的美国选手 Denis Kudla， 创下本年度 ATP 挑战赛排名差距最大的爆冷胜利！ Biggest Upsets In 2016 (difference of 1000+ spots in Emirates ATP Rankings): 1. 吴东霖 (TPE) d. Denis Kudla (USA) @ Kaohsiung, 台湾 - 相差 1617 名 No. 1748 No.131 2. Mikhail Vaks (RUS) d. Connor Smith (USA) @ Dallas, 美国 - 相差 1361 名 No. 1600 No. 239 3. Romain Jouan (FRA) d. Adam Pavlasek (CZE) @ Quimper, 法国 - 相差 1134 名 No. 1265 No. 131 4. Albano Olivetti (FRA) d. Denys Molchanov (UKR) @ Wrodaw, 波兰 - 相差 1110 名 No. 1344 No. 234 5. Romain Jouan (FRA) d. James Ward (GBR) @ Quimper, 法国 - 相差 1096 名 No. 1265 No. 169 6. Andrea Pellegrino (ITA) d. Horacio Zeballos (ARG) @ Rome,义大利 - 相差1055名 No. 1146 No. 91 Although he lost in a competitive match to Yuya Kibi of Japan in the second-round, he's still in the doubles quarter-finals with Ze Zhang of China. “This victory is very special for me, especially being in front of Taiwanese fans,” said Wu. “Before the match, some people questioned whether I deserved to have the wild card, but this victory reconfirmed my ability. I did lots of homework and research about Kudla, so I was well-prepared, but I didn’t think too much on the court. I just swung hard and let adrenaline take over the rest.” The teenager has competed all in of the junior events at Grand Slams for the past two years, but has also mixed in ITF Futures tournaments and ATP Challenger Tour events. Having gotten a taste of all three worlds, he has been able to pick up on the differences of what it takes to succeed in them. “The biggest difference is the ability to take opportunities to win the match,” said Wu. “Most teenager players don’t have the mindset to cope with pressure on the court, but the professional players are mature enough to play under pressure.” Wu’s win over Kudla will see him jump inside the Top 1,000 of the Emirates ATP Rankings on Monday. But perhaps more importantly, it’s instilled a new belief in his tennis. “At the beginning of turning pro, sometimes I would doubt my own ability,” he admitted. “But this match showed me to just trust myself and made me realise I can be better in the future.” 由於原文不难懂就不特别翻译， 重点大致就是下周他的排名将可跳升至一千名之内， 也希望这场胜役能够给他足够的信心突破自我， 让台湾男网後继有人！ --
