Although he lost two games in a row at the beginning, Sarkisian did not mess up his position. The quality of his serve and attack improved significantly. He finally got into the state, and the quality of his point-grabbing attack gradually showed his power.
After experiencing a tie test, Sarkisson used a forehand diagonal return ball attack to get the game point. This was the first time Sarkisson broke his hitting habit in this game and chose a repeated route, which was unexpected.
Wen's surprise also meant that Sarkisian's line had been opened.
In the next point, on Sarkisson's game point, the two players played a wonderful round. Both players had the opportunity to switch from defense to offense, but neither could form a winning point. Then, under extreme passivity, Sarkisson's
A two-handed backhand hit a magic ball, a small diagonal across the entire court——
The line is very skewed and the angle is very large and awkward.
Gao Wen was already pulled outside the doubles line, and he managed to catch a shot with his backhand. However, because his body had lost its center of gravity, he could not exert force at all, so the tennis ball had no arc to speak of. It flew up slightly, and then fell quickly again.
, falling into Gawain's own side of the field.
Sarkisian scored.
Gawain followed the inertia and rushed forward, almost rushing into the auditorium. He reluctantly held the advertising board with both hands and made an emergency brake to control his body.
At the same time, Sakison on the other side, who barely finished the shot, almost fell down. He used his hands and feet to barely control his balance, and was in a state of embarrassment.
It was a wonderful duel. Both players had pushed themselves to the extreme, and successfully won the roaring applause of the scene, and the whole audience roared.
Sarkisian, who won his serve with an incredible performance, also released his emotions. He clenched his fists and roared like a lone wolf at the moon. His veins burst and his blood spurted. The sound ignited the enthusiasm and cheers of the audience.
Sounds and whistles came and went one after another, spreading out in a mighty manner.
Sure enough, Sarkisian was in good condition and would never surrender easily. To be precise, he was only broken in one serve. His goal is still victory.
But Sarkisian still needs to ask Gawain's opinion.
On this side of the court, Gawain's blood also boiled. Although he lost the game point, Sarkisian's excellence also inspired his state.
"Let this battle begin!"
As a result, a confrontation situation formed.
In the next five games, both players performed well in their own service games. The mercury-laden offense continued to hit good shots, making full use of their own serving advantages. Their bold attacks continuously triggered cheers and applause at the scene. You come and I go.
The confrontation battle is really exciting.
No one had a break point in their serving game, both of them successfully held serve, and then the score was deadlocked at the end of the set.
"5:3".
After Gao Wen successfully held serve again, Sarkisian came to the first set where he had to hold serve.
Sarkisian felt the pressure immediately.
In the previous two service games of Sarkisian, they played smoothly. Gawain's tactical routine did not change much, but Sarkisian's point-grabbing attack was flourishing. His hand felt hot, but at the end of the set,
In this stage, starting from the first point, Gao Wen's aggressiveness in returning the ball clearly exploded.
The sudden burst of speed made Sarkisian a little panicked.
However, Sarkisian still felt hot and took the lead in getting the game point. Unfortunately, he was saved by Gawain. Then it happened twice more. After three deuces, Gawain used a cool backhand.
A straight line formed the winning point, and the break point was obtained again after six games.
After losing three game points, a break point was given, which obviously made Sarkisson a little out of breath. Moreover, he held three consecutive service games without giving a break point, which made Sarkisson "relax" a little because he believed in his serve.
He was in control, but he encountered a violent impact in the first set when the serve was unavoidable.
This made Sakison feel a sense of shame of being deceived, as if...as if everything was a mirage and a trap.
"Mom, he cheated on my feelings!"
But the problem is that there is no time to be sad now, because he still has a break point to save.
call.
Sarkisian took a long breath to adjust his mood and breathing, and then got ready to serve.
At the break point, Sarkisian served very carefully. He chose a backhand position in the middle, but the angle was not too biased. It just suppressed Gawain's swing space.
Reflexively, Gawain returned the shot with a backhand with both hands. However, because his position and movement were squeezed, he had no choice in the route of return. He subconsciously returned the shot with a diagonal shot, and the landing point and rotation were average.
Generally speaking, even if you want to suppress the bottom line, you cannot suppress it.
Sarkisian's movement into the baseline was very timely. After completing the serve, he immediately stepped up to press, then squatted with a very low center of gravity, and completed the hit with a backhand with both hands, grabbing the rising point of the rebound of the tennis ball.
Instead of pursuing angles and power, we suppressed with speed.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball was like hitting a wall. He almost copied and pasted Gawain's return route, and then directly sent the tennis ball back.
Gao Wen's footsteps had already returned to his forehand position. After noticing Sarkisian's shot, he pulled back with two consecutive big strides. However, the balance of his center of gravity was obviously unstable, and he could not backhand with both hands.
After finishing the drawing, in a hurry, I could only cut it back with one shot.
intentionally!
Gawain cut a super backspin, trying to further damage Sarkisian's center of gravity in his movement.
But Sarkeeson maintained a high concentration of attention on the break point, squatted his knees very well, lowered the center of gravity of his entire body, made a full lifting action with his forehand, and grabbed the rising point for the second time in a row, improving continuously.
Rhythm, pull out a more diagonal line to complete the return.
Ping. Pong.
This time, Gawain was slightly prepared and his focus returned to its original position, but his focus was still on protecting his backhand.
really!
Sarkisian hit backhand continuously, and Gawain only needed one step to reach the position smoothly this time.
However, just when he was about to return the ball, he discovered that Sarkisian had taken advantage of the previous hit and came to the tennis ball with a very fierce attack.
The 191cm tall man stood in front of the net, covering a very wide area, which also compressed Gawain's space for returning the ball.
Originally, Gawain was going to continue cutting the diagonal line, but this was equivalent to sending it directly to Sarkisian. So during the swing of the backhand with both hands, he slightly changed the way of hitting the ball, and used the strength of his wrist to move outward.
Send, and then——
Backhand straight line!
Gao Wen's most classic and sharpest line appeared at the most critical moment, preparing to break through from Sarkisian's right side.
but!
Sarkisian had already been on guard early. The moment Gao Wen touched the ball, he started to take action, and his body took two big steps toward his forehand.
boom!
Sarkisian's racket appeared accurately on the trajectory of the tennis ball, one block! One block!
