The tennis ball drew a graceful and stunning arc and a straight flight line along the sideline, thrillingly making the audience hold their breath.
Alarms sounded all over Tim's body, and he started to activate immediately, running towards a 45-degree diagonal diagonal, and his acceleration increased to the extreme in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, Tim saw that the tennis ball crossed the net lightly and fell quickly, light and agile, like a feather, with almost no attachment force.
Landed.
Two jumps.
He had no chance, no chance at all. From a distance, he braked, lowered his head, and couldn't help but reveal a wry smile of regret.
ah!
Raise your arms and shout.
The mountains roared and the tsunami roared.
The Philippe-Chatier Stadium is crazy again. From the big open and close of the previous point to the light and easy of this one, the rhythm of the whole game is completely different, but it is equally exciting and exciting. The entire stadium is thrown into the dryer.
, the world is spinning, surging and rolling, who can refuse?
Tim looked up at the sky, feeling helpless but also admiring——
It's not difficult to release small balls. The key point is that you dare to choose such a tactic for such a crucial score, and you can execute it so wonderfully and beautifully.
It's perfect.
Looking up, Tim saw Gawain on the other side of the court.
This time, Gao Wen did not make a fist to celebrate, but showed a big smile, watching Tim retreat all the way, and returned to the baseline to prepare for the next point.
However, that smile, that look, that gesture... the whole body was burning with high fighting spirit, but it was so carefree and wanton.
The corners of Tim's mouth also rose up, and his fighting spirit began to burn brightly. Let them see who can have the last laugh in the first set——
He was already prepared; and he didn't think he would lose.
"10:11".
The game point once again fell into Gawain's hands.
incredible!
Unbelievable!
Drip, drip, drip.
The tiebreaker of the third set has lasted for 23 minutes, which can almost catch up with the time of a whole set in some hard court games. The two sides have exchanged venues three times, but the outcome is still a big question mark.
This large-scale tie-break still maintains suspense and makes people breathless.
and!
The game has been going on for nearly three hours, and the wonderful shots in the tie-break are still coming one after another. Both players are detonating their own small universes. The tension and excitement spread throughout the Philippe-Chatier Stadium, and the brain is filled with excitement.
Fever, just blend into it selflessly.
Blood is burning.
Could it be that the two players will continue to stalemate until they change venues for the fourth time?
But if you think about it seriously, it doesn't seem too bad. What's the point of having a little expectation?
"Tim! Gawain!"
"Tim! Gawain!"
The Philippe-Chatier Stadium became lively, and fans cheered for the two players one by one.
The fans who were waiting one after another in the corridor behind the stands finally couldn't hold it any longer——
They've been standing here for nearly half an hour!
The tie-break is not over yet, so they can't keep standing here forever, right? Moreover, there is a steady stream of spectators arriving from behind, making it more and more crowded and lively, and it looks like a dam that may overflow at any time.
They are also the audience who bought tickets to watch the game. Everyone has a seat. This is not a concert. There is a rock standing area. They should be allowed to enter and become a part of this exciting match, especially the third set.
Rustling.
The heat wave is rolling.
On the field, the game was still in a stalemate.
Outside the court, it was almost the same. The event organizers immediately communicated through the intercom. If the tie-break continues, then when the venue is changed for the fourth time, spectators will be allowed to enter and take their seats. They will also inform the referee and cooperate a little bit.
for a moment to maintain the order of watching the game.
The audience who crowded at the entrance finally calmed down a little after hearing the news.
The commotion only boiled for a moment, and then calmed down again.
On the court, both Gao Wen and Tim noticed the surge from the spectator stands, but after waiting for a moment, the referee announced that the game would continue.
The stalemate rhythm of confrontation has still not been broken.
Then, the right to serve came to Tim.
Second District.
One shot.
Speed...142 kilometers per hour.
Slow, very, very slow. Even the second serve speed of many female players is higher than this value, but it appears on the first serve of male players.
However, it is obvious that Tim is not giving up the game——
Pressing the backhand from close range, and also having strong side spin.
Gawain, was killed by surprise.
First of all, he didn't expect that Tim would actually choose to slow down and reduce power on the first serve. This should be the first time today, and it was really unexpected.
Secondly, Gao Wen realized that after serving the ball from close range, he adjusted his position in small steps. However, after the tennis ball hit the ground and rebounded, he realized that it was spinning strongly with tail force.
Originally, Gawain moved to his right, preparing to catch the ball with his backhand; as a result, the tennis ball continued to rotate to the right, and continued to drill towards Gawain's arms, so that the hitting point kept squeezing towards the body.
, causing Gawain’s prepared swing space to be compressed again.
Tim, come prepared——
He knew that Gao Wen would not dodge his backhand, which meant that Gao Wen rarely chose to sideways forehand, especially when receiving the serve, he would not shy away from his forehand or backhand, and hit the ball with his backhand openly.
Therefore, Thiem deliberately chose to serve with reduced force, sneak a close attack, and then use side spin to create further pressure, and the entire rhythm of the game was broken.
Gawain exclaimed, "I've been fooled."
People have always said that Tim is an honest man, who plays with a very straight axis and seldom plays tricks. However, this does not mean that Tim's golf skills are not high, although Tim does not have many tricks and tends to play.
Strength ball, but Tim has always had his own ideas about the interpretation of the game and the use of techniques and tactics.
Just like this time.
Gawain was fully prepared, but he was still squeezed. He barely completed the shot with a backhand with both hands, and his body weight was pushed back.
Although the shot was successfully completed, there was no quality at all.
Then, the tennis ball flew back——
Slash, back to Tim's backhand.
Before Gao Wen had time to adjust his center of gravity, he sounded the alarm because he knew that Tim's backhand could handle his return very easily. There was no problem with diagonal or straight lines, and it was very suitable for Tim's serve.
Next, Tim will definitely attack with all his strength.
The key point is, diagonal line or straight line?
There is no clue. With Tim's ability, such a return ball will basically open up the whole court, and every corner will be covered by Tim's offense.
Danger! Danger! Danger!
Tim completely gained the upper hand through unexpected serving tactics. Now the only thing Gao Wen can do is:
gamble.
Left or right, choose one of the two, 50% chance, bet on one side.
With a push and a rush, Gawain didn't even wait for his center of gravity to adjust before he started forcefully and rushed towards his left side.
