After forcing a sideways forehand, Gao Wen continued to adjust in small steps to prepare for potential subsequent confrontations, and immediately moved towards the right gap.
There is no slacking off.
It wasn't until the tennis ball hit the ground that he stopped moving. He stood there, clenched his fists, turned around and looked at the audience.
There was no cheering, no jumping, and no celebration, but the courage and belief shining in those eyes were stirring and shining with overwhelming momentum.
Gao Wen clearly knew how bold, risky, and crazy this sideways forehand attack was, breaking the rules; however, he needed such an attempt, an attempt to subvert the game, break the balance, and change the situation, even if the cost was a waste of a break point. Some attempts
It still has to be completed.
Plop, plop, plop, plop——
Along with the violent breathing, the beating heart was also hitting the chest hard, adrenaline was flowing out continuously, and the blood was burning.
——Break, reverse, subvert.
He is still fighting.
"ah!"
At the scene, someone finally could no longer control his emotions and roared, which immediately swept the entire venue. Before he could even blink, the entire No. 1 Stadium was already in a roar, with surging screams, applause, whistles and shouts.
Like a tsunami, it engulfed the entire place.
Ahhhh!
Ahhhh!
Wonderful, truly wonderful, something that can only be felt by watching the game at close range at the scene——
From the thrill of saving two set points, to the careful layout and bold shots to win the break point, to the shocking victory that overturned the balance.
Such an ups and downs and exciting process has evolved into a press release, which is just a "break", which is just a "5:4". Those words and numbers cannot show the thrill of the process at all, nor can they understand the plunge into the No. 1 court.
The causes of madness vary widely.
Pulan, his heart is about to burst.
She believed in Gawain and always had; but this game was indeed full of challenges and difficulties. When the moment came when Gawain really reversed the situation and broke serve, the joy and excitement burst out unreservedly, and the whole head was roaring, and there was no shouting.
Erupt from the depths of your soul without hesitation.
In the first set, the two sides have now returned to the same starting line, and the suspense at the end of the set has been rekindled.
The heart is beating wildly, because of nervousness and anticipation, because of joy and anxiety, and the mixed taste rushes towards the tip of the tongue.
The short ninety-second inter-game break passed quickly. It seemed that the two players had just sat down when the referee's voice announcing that time was up had already been heard.
Next, Gao Wen's serve was still a must-protect serve, and Dimitrov still had a chance to win the first set in this game.
really--
Dimitrov was full of firepower, fully displaying his excellent condition and touch in the first set. He dared to fight and fought very decisively.
Gawain's physical strength fluctuated slightly.
It’s not that my physical fitness is at its peak, but that in the past two rounds, I have continuously improved my condition, mobilized my body, and mastered the entire offensive initiative. The consumption is obvious, and the entire breathing and rhythm need to be adjusted.
Therefore, in this game, the first serve frequently failed to go in, and the main focus was on the lower net. It was obvious at a glance that the ground force was not sufficient, which directly affected the quality of the serve.
Dimitrov seized the opportunity of Gawain's second serve and applied frequent pressure. The back-and-forth battle began and the situation became anxious again.
Dimitrov got two break points and set points, and once again had the opportunity to realize the victory in the first set.
At the critical moment, Gao Wen showed his big heart, calm layout, took the risk to slow down the serve, gave up speed and power, and suppressed with landing point:
A close serve caused Dimitrov's return ball to fly straight away, resulting in a straight second serve.
A second serve destroyed Dimitrov's attack by pressing the T point, and then Gao Wen directly scored the winning point with a forehand diagonal shot.
Before she could even blink, two break points and points were taken away again.
It cannot be said that Dimitrov performed poorly and failed to seize the opportunity, but that Gawain's calmness and wisdom in key points showed his superior ability.
at last!
After six minutes of fighting, Gao Wen used a forehand straight line ball to force Dimitrov to cut out of bounds with his backhand, seizing the second game point.
Thrilling insurance.
"5:5"!
The whole place was boiling.
"God, is a magical five-to-two going to happen here?"
"Gaowen saved four set points, and now the score has been tied. The pressure is on Dimitrov's side, and the air is almost suffocating."
"Now, Dimitrov needs to stay calm. He can't think wildly or dwell on the four counts. He needs to find his concentration and focus on the game. Obviously, Gao Wen has shown an upward momentum. After consecutively saving dangerous situations, his momentum and state
It’s all going up, and he won’t let up easily.”
"In the next game, Dimitrov may encounter an impact. He needs a first serve, he needs an offensive connection, and he needs to hold serve as soon as possible to gain a foothold."
"There is no doubt that Gao Wen is a player who is very good at reading the game. He knows that there are certain opportunities here and he will not miss them easily."
In the commentary booth, Xu Yang keenly noticed the changes in the atmosphere of the game. In addition to the on-court duel, the psychological warfare between the two players was also very subtle. What's more, even if there was no break of serve, the two players entered the tie-break, which was equally exciting.
, the victory of the first set is at hand.
However, Tong Kexin is paying attention——
"Oh, the one who just appeared in the camera was Ozil. I didn't expect that he would also come to watch the game."
Mesut Ozil, Arsenal Football Club superstar.
Wimbledon is always crowded with stars every year. From sports to entertainment to the royal family, familiar faces often appear in the VIP boxes. This has also become a beautiful scenery in the TV broadcast. Sitting in rows to count the superstars, there is no doubt that they are
The best time to test the commentator's knowledge.
but now?
Xu Yang turned his head and glanced at Tong Kexin, hesitating to speak, but in the end he said nothing and continued speaking in a calm and rational tone.
"Dmitrov is ready to serve."
One sentence brought his attention back to the game, and Ozil couldn't help but hold his breath and focus on the court.
However--
"0:40".
A forehand slash went beyond the baseline, a backhand sliced down the net, and Gawain scored a straight backhand. Before he could even catch his breath, the three-pointer disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Dimitrov was in a desperate situation. He needed to face three consecutive break points in his service game.
After missing four counts, Dimitrov's own mentality fluctuated, and Gawain's state improved, creating a dislocation between entering and exiting. Then, Dimitrov stood on the edge of the cliff.
He needs to fight hard to stay in the first set.
This is tennis.
The situation is indeed a bit chaotic.
This moment is the real test.
Although there were some confrontations and tug-of-wars in the early and middle stages of the first set, the overall trend was stable. It was not until the later stages that there were finally waves. For both players, this was a critical moment——
When we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win.
It depends on whether the heart in the chest can have enough courage and courage to fight a bloody road leading to victory in the first set.
