Rublev's stubbornness and stubbornness can be seen in this ball. At the end of the strong collision with the backhand position, he turned sideways and hit the forehand diagonally again.
Seize the opportunity!
However, is this Rublev's opportunity or Gawain's opportunity?
But see.
Gao Wen was not in a hurry, as if he had already anticipated Rublev's return route. He calmly adjusted his steps and then stepped forward.
step!
It was just one step, from outside the bottom line to inside the bottom line, but this step relied on accurate prediction to compress the reaction time and grab a point in time.
Along with this, he also became more decisive in taking action.
The backhand with both hands actively moves forward. The forward movement of the body is completely consistent with the trajectory of the swing, and inertia, speed and power all collide together.
boom!
At the moment when the shot is taken, the speed of the racket head is completely increased, drawing a beautiful arc, and then the wrist is pushed forward.
Change the line!
boom!
It changed from a diagonal line to a straight line, crossing the entire court and falling within the big triangle of Rublev's forehand baseline. It was precise, fast, and as fast as lightning.
The winning point is obtained!
Rublev's footsteps were completely stuck on the other side of the court, and he didn't even have time to regain his center of gravity, just watching Gawain score.
what happened?
Rublev was very sad. He didn't know what else he could do. From backhand to sideways forehand, he had exerted all his strength, raising his speed and strength to the extreme. This seemed to be all he had at this stage, but,
Still unable to shake Gawain's plan even a bit.
In sharp contrast, Gao Wen, who was on the opposite side of the court, was relaxed and leisurely, and even got this point without spending any effort.
What can he do?
Or in other words, what should he do?
This point seems to be the epitome of the entire game.
The whole game——
Rublev failed to get any break points in Gauvin's serve. To be precise, post-match statistics showed that Gauvin only lost five points in his own serve.
In sharp contrast, Gao Wen got a total of seven break points in Rublev's service game and easily broke five times. Rublev performed very poorly when facing break points and only saved two, which was almost a win.
It is said that he handed over his serve without much resistance.
"6:1", "6:1".
Gao Wen lost two straight sets and swept the victory. It only took 53 minutes to easily advance to the second round.
At the end of the game, Rublev was very frustrated——
Not because of losing, but because of my poor performance.
There was a hint of depression and loss in his eyes, his head drooped, his shoulders slumped, and his expression looked like he was about to cry.
The eye sockets were slightly red, and it was not clear for a moment whether it was due to the blush on the cheeks due to strenuous exercise, or due to some other reason.
Despite this, after the last point ended, Rublev quickly collected his emotions, took a deep breath, shook his head vigorously, as if preparing to get rid of all the sadness, then raised his head, showed a polite smile, and quickly ran to the net
before shaking hands with Gawain.
Rublev opened his arms and gave Gawain a sincere hug, "Wonderful game, your performance was really outstanding. Congratulations on the victory."
"You deserve all the praise."
Sincerity, enthusiasm and kindness.
You can deeply feel the sincerity in every word. Even if he suffered a tragic defeat, Rublev still sent his blessings.
This kind of kindness and calmness is really rare.
Gawain was a little surprised and was stunned for a moment. Then the smile on his lips rose and he patted Rublev on the back.
"Welcome to the professional arena. Now, I am finally no longer the youngest player on the tour. In the future, we can fight side by side."
Swapping sincerity for sincerity, Gao Wen also sent his sincere blessings and expressed his joyful welcome to the emergence of young players born after 1995.
Rublev raised his head, very surprised.
Sure enough, he is still a fledgling child who does not understand the dangers of society. His clear eyes are not hidden at all, and his thoughts can be seen at a glance.
Those surprises, those astonishments, were clearly displayed and could be seen without words. He thought that Gawain was an unreachable existence.
But I didn’t expect it at all…
Gawain couldn't help but chuckle.
"It seems that my image in the rumors should be very scary."
The joke made Rublev immediately panic. He waved his hands repeatedly and tried to explain, but the honest man couldn't hold his tongue straight and he hesitated and couldn't speak.
"Haha, don't worry, I won't hit anyone."
At this time, Rublev also realized that Gawain was joking, but he didn't know how to respond. He just scratched his head, and then Gawain's voice came to his ears again.
"Today is just the beginning. There is a long, long career waiting ahead, so welcome to the professional stage."
Gawain, you are serious.
Judging from the score, there is indeed a huge disparity. It seems that Gao Wen did not encounter any challenge or impact at all and won the game easily.
But Gao Wen knows that Rublev is a kind of honest and honest player. He needs to learn through games and grow slowly step by step.
Maybe, the steps are not fast, but this also means that he is down to earth. In the future, Rublev will definitely grow into an excellent player and occupy a place in the top ranks.
Just like Ferrell.
A simple sentence, but it meant too much. Rublev's loss and sadness quietly dissipated, the corners of his mouth raised, and he finally found his smile.
The first focus of this week’s Miami Masters, the answer has emerged——
Facing Rublev, who was born in 1997, Gao Wen was able to defeat his opponent in two straight sets without even breaking a sweat, once again proving his status as a leader of the new generation.
Not to mention where the topic of "Big Four VS New Generation" will go in the coming season, but among the new generation of young people "post-90s" and "post-95s", Gao Wen has already stood out.
The topic seems to end here.
But is the media really willing?
To be precise, even if the media is willing, the young players are not willing.
Because for young people born after 1995, the "Big Four" are too far away, and the "top ten in the world" are too far away, but Gao Wen is not far away.
Gao Wen, like them, is a generation born after 1995. They are all under the age of twenty. If they want to prove their ability and become famous in one battle, then Gao Wen is the best or even the only goal.
Both of them locked their sights on Gawain.
Of course, Gawain is currently ranked third in the world, and all challengers are paying attention to his every move, but for the new generation born after 1995, the goal of "Gawain" is even more important.
Lou, to some extent, even surpasses the position of the Big Four.
"Defeating Gawain" is equal to "proving yourself", equal to "coming out of nowhere", equal to "the brilliant start of career".
No one wants to miss it.
We can be 100% certain that Rublev is not the first, and of course, he will not be the last, because——
