This is the only solution in a desperate situation of absolute passivity.
Gawain and Murray, as well as the entire audience, raised their chins high and watched the tennis ball sink into the golden sky, like a sun.
Whoosh, whoosh.
Parabola, pull it up high.
Gawain's small steps were continuously adjusted. His eyes followed the tennis ball as it rose. After a pause, he was ready to step up and cut to the baseline. But then he realized that his parabola was not completely pulled up, and the landing point was still not deep enough, and he did not have the ability to reach the net.
Given the opportunity, he stepped back again.
Although the Internet is no longer available, it does not mean that Gawain has no chance——
The lofted ball was high enough and far enough, but it was not enough. The landing point was not close to the baseline. It should be in the midfield area between the service area and the baseline. This also meant that Murray was given an opportunity to press high in the midfield.
In the tie-break of the fourth set, Gao Wen had such an opportunity. He directly hit the midfielder with a high-pressure shot, showing his solid basic skills.
Now it's Murray's turn.
Murray's high pressure...how should I put it?
Not as unstable as Djokovic, but not as tough as Federer and Nadal. Murray's high pressure is often strong with some insurance. He is more inclined to combine the placement with the line, strength and
In terms of speed, we will not pursue the ultimate, ensuring that high pressure can enter the boundary.
In other words, if the opponent's prediction is accurate, even in the face of high pressure, he can still get a chance to return the ball.
so--
Forehand? Backhand? Center?
All the nerves in Gawain's whole body were tense. This was the moment to seize the opportunity. There was only a glimmer of hope and he had to fight hard.
The pupils narrowed slightly, and then Gao Wen noticed Murray's small step adjustment, switching from the backhand position to the forehand position.
Generally speaking, players are still accustomed to using the forehand to complete high pressure, because it is easier to exert force, and also because the high-pressure hitting point of the two-handed backhand is difficult to grasp.
Of course, Murray is no exception; but in fact, like other giants and other top players, Murray has no problem with high-pressure backhands with both hands, so Murray's adjustment to high-pressure forehand should be to hide his high-pressure line.
Isn't Murray ready to hit the diagonal high pressure?
Instead, backslash?
A guess, a gamble, a blind guess——
Gawain must admit that at this moment, there is no prediction or basis. It is purely gambling. Choose one of two, with a 50% chance. The game and speculation between the two players are carried out from beginning to end, and no one can take advantage of it.
You have the upper hand, so what you need at the critical moment is firmness.
There can be no hesitation, no hesitation, and no hesitation.
Then, Gao Wen was already sprinting towards the backhand position.
The reason is very simple. The backhand position is in the gap. From the perspective of high-pressure ball, the attack gap can be fully unleashed without restraints or shackles, and the speed and power can be fully released without interference. If Murray is prepared to hit the ball hard,
When it comes to smashing, gap is the wise choice.
Tread, tap, tap -
Gawain is running wildly, with lightning speed. Once he makes a choice, he has no reservations. Any hesitation or hesitation will ruin his efforts.
Strong wind, hunting.
Then, Gawain saw a ray of light, and the golden halo fully bloomed, and was fully released at the moment Murray's racket collided.
boom!
High pressure in the air, powerful smashes, all released.
In the midst of difficulties and crises, Murray also rarely chose to take the initiative. In this tug-of-war, he seized the opportunity and did not hesitate to exert force.
Backslash, aim for the gap.
Murray's tense muscles had just released their strength, and before his steps had time to hit the ground, a white figure could be seen in his sight.
Whoosh, whoosh... Running, sprinting, teleporting, and crossing the whole place, the green sky and the ground surged together like a wave.
With one kick, one rush, the two-handed backhand was launched early, without waiting or hesitation, and he hit the smash head-on with great force.
contradict!
Unexpectedly, he was caught red-handed.
Actually!
The whole audience exclaimed in surprise.
However, before the exclamation had time to rush out of his throat, he was already swallowed up by astonishment, and he stared dumbly at the scene unfolding in front of him.
"ah!"
At the moment of hitting the ball, a roar erupted from deep in the Dantian, and the backhand of both hands followed the inertia of the sprint and the direction of transfer to complete the sweep.
Slash, impact.
The energy was released, and the solid and steady sound of hitting the ball exploded in the center court. At this time, you can deeply feel the turbulence of the entire stadium. The ripples that spread out in circles are surging above the eardrums, and the heart,
The blood and the rhythm of breathing were all involved in this storm.
boom!
The tennis ball turned into a stream of light, tearing through the air with faster speed and stronger force, dragging its long tail across the entire field.
If you see blood, seal your throat.
It passed Murray standing in the midfield, broke through Murray's second start block, found a gap near the sideline of Murray's backhand area, and landed smoothly.
Before he could even blink, the tennis ball hit the ground and exploded, sending up a halo of light.
Ping ping pong, "power VS strength", "high pressure VS through", "forehand VS backhand", at the end of the powerful collision, Gawain turned the situation around again.
"40:AD".
The air was burning, and no one in the entire central court was caught in a frenzy. The bubbling heat wave was hotter than magma.
"Wow."
Xu Yang, some words are poor.
"Wow!"
"incredible."
"This is really unbelievable. Gawain has gone crazy."
"Although today's game has provided countless five best goals, in the final set, Gao Wen continued to burn the small universe and complete an incredible performance."
"With Murray already taking the absolute initiative, Gawain's desperate counterattack won the point and brought out the fourth break point of the game."
"Murray just missed the game point when his forehand went out of bounds. He is paying a more painful price. The break opportunity came to Gawain again."
"It's a stalemate, this round is still a stalemate."
Wonderful, indeed wonderful; but stalemate, indeed stalemate.
Gawain, there was no surprise or celebration; Murray, there was no panic or nervousness. At this stage, both players had entered a state of selflessness. Even a single victory or defeat was not enough to shake their faith. They were concentrating and concentrating on the goal.
Sprint towards your only goal.
After a short period of cheering and exclamation, the central court fell into silence again, because they had no energy to celebrate, and because they were so nervous that they could not breathe. Whether it was Murray fans or Gowan fans, including neutral fans, they were all nervous and anxious, and watching with enthusiasm.
Follow the progress of the game.
The whole place was completely silent.
So, at this point, is Murray escaping from death again, or is Gawain unstoppable?
Second District.
"Out of bounds!"
Murray's first serve went out of bounds. It can be seen from the landing point of the serve that Murray did not speed up, but tried to use the deep ball pressed on the bottom line of the service area to create a squeeze. It was still a tactical serve, but for a moment
It is difficult to determine whether there is any impact from physical fluctuations and arm injuries.
But no one can deny that the game has entered the final set, everything is different from the beginning of the game, and the influence of those factors cannot be ignored.
