Federer immediately felt the pressure from his backhand position. Although Gawain did not continue to increase his speed, the restraint and pressure of the rhythm were everywhere. The game between the two players continued throughout, posing an incredible test to physical strength and energy. Federer
The impact was deeply felt.
Some people may say, what about Wimbledon?
Don't forget, the final set at Wimbledon was fought all the way to "13:11" before the winner was decided. At that time, Gawain had already caused countless troubles.
But Federer would say that it is different after all.
In Wimbledon, it's grass, and Gawain's impact is more of a collision of ability and talent, with mental toughness playing a key role; in Flushing, it's fast hard court, and it's also where Gawain became famous in one battle.
On the playing field, Gawain's personal strength is fully reflected here.
What's more, after experiencing the polishing of clay and grass seasons, Gao Wen has become more mature; experiencing the setbacks of injuries and accidents, Gao Wen has become more determined.
Although Federer was one set ahead in terms of score, when he was truly immersed in the game, Federer felt the impact far more than at Wimbledon.
but!
Federer can withstand the impact of Nadal, Djokovic, Murray and other players one after another, and still ranks at the top of the world. It is definitely not just his talent that supports him, but his ability and his brain.
His wisdom, his will, etc. all play an important role.
At this time, Federer felt the pressure of Gawain using super topspin to hit his backhand, and his many years of experience against Nadal instantly burst out with amazing energy.
One push. One push.
The arms are fully extended.
With a roar, Federer also showed his anger, cut a slash, and hit the tennis ball back above his shoulders.
Of course, Federer still encountered rotational suppression after all. The line, angle, speed, etc. were not able to explode, but he was forced to resist.
On the opposite side of the court, Gawain's figure crossed the court, light and agile, like a whirlwind.
Backhand position.
brake.
Kick the ground.
Welcome forward.
impact.
Gawain was moving at high speed, and his backhand shot out at an instant speed, following the flight path of the tennis ball and hitting it back.
"Backhand VS Backhand 0".
Federer also showed no sign of weakness.
"Backhand VS Backhand 0".
Gawain kept up the pressure.
At this time, it can be clearly seen that Gawain's strength in the backhand position, solid power and quick connection completely stopped Federer's swing.
Or, Federer retreats to open up space, but Federer knows that this is useless. Even if he retreats to win the swing space for his backhand, he still cannot withstand Gawain's shot. The only chance is to move quickly and move sideways forehand.
, but the entire forehand field will be cleared.
Or, look for opportunities to change the line on the backhand position. Just one shot is enough. A little gap and a straight backhand can completely reverse the situation.
Federer gritted his teeth and forced a confrontation on the backhand position. The long-term confrontation with Nadal made his backhand resistance ability significantly improved; but the problem was that Gao Wen was very cautious and attentive, and the confrontation on the backhand position continued to create pressure and fall.
Point and line control are also particularly careful.
No chance.
Absolutely not.
Federer was a little frustrated and annoyed. This feeling was like facing Nadal and Djokovic at the same time. It was simply terrible.
"Backhand VS Backhand 0".
The third time in a row.
A thought flashed through Federer's mind, whether he should force a sideways forehand, but in a flash, Federer had already made up his mind.
Bold. Strong. Courageous.
The King of Switzerland truly showed his domineering power in the backhand position. He did not change his position, but moved his body slightly forward. Since Gawain did not give him a chance, he relied on his own changes to create opportunities. In a passive situation, he reluctantly
We have gained the opportunity to move forward on this front line.
Backhand, shot.
Long sword, unsheathed.
It's not a frontal force, but a light tap, a light tap that uses force to hit.
The key point is to control the racket surface and adjust the wrist. Gently, open the diagonal angle. The return line is not aimed at the deep area of Gao Wen's backhand position, but the service area on Gao Wen's left side, completely opening the angle.
, relying on the wrist and racket surface to control the tennis ball to fall into the service area, and continue to tilt outside.
stunt!
In a formal game, if two players continue to exchange backhands and compete at different angles, this can be done. Occasionally, by chance, such an extreme line can be accidentally pulled out, but if it is all under your own control, it is not an accident.
Unexpectedly, it can be done anytime and anywhere, that is the unique patent of one-handed backhand.
Because they hold the racket with one hand, this allows them to completely tear apart the angle, and the light and thin return line cuts into the court like a blade.
Among them, Federer is the absolute master.
In an instant, the balance was broken again.
Federer and Gao Wen were in a stalemate, calculating, and still competing. This time, Federer, who was absolutely passive, boldly tried to overturn the situation.
Just one stroke of the ball completely overturned Gawain's suppression of three consecutive backhand attacks.
The situation was reversed in an instant.
The whole audience was stunned——
In an instant, Gawain's footsteps were directly pulled out of the singles line... No, outside the doubles line, the whole person completely disappeared outside the scope of the field.
At the same time, you need to move forward vertically and completely lose your position.
On one side, Federer completed the shot in an extremely passive and extremely difficult situation. He paused, cut to the baseline without hesitation, and approached the net with light steps.
Go online with the ball.
Federer once again showed his ability to interpret opportunities and situations before turning the situation around, and the pressure immediately followed without leaving any breathing space.
Tap tap tap.
Gawain was moving, and before he could catch up with the tennis ball, he could already see the figure pressing up from the corner of his vision. The court space was rapidly compressing, and the crisis was overwhelming. Gawain instantly felt Federer's sophistication and strength.
Even if there are no loopholes, you still can't relax.
He must do his best.
Thoughts passed by in a flash.
Gao Wen's footwork was not hurried, because Federer's return of the ball depended entirely on the line and landing point, but in fact his speed and power were average.
Gawain believes that he can catch him, the focus is on the next step——
How to return the ball?
Gao Wen has completely lost his position on the court and stepped outside the doubles line. After he returns the ball, Federer will definitely block and volley in front of the net in the next shot. Therefore, he cannot only think about the present, but also needs to prepare for the next step.
Photograph the layout.
Unknowingly, the round continued, and the two players also worked together to play the longest round since the start of the game tonight.
Gawain is very calm, and it can be seen at a glance that Federer's center of gravity is moving to the right, which means that he is blocking the straight line.
Not to mention whether it was a smoke bomb, Gawain glanced at the slash position...
can not see.
literal meaning.
Because the angle of Federer's return was completely separated, Gao Wen could not see the position of the other sideline at all.
If Gawain chooses a slash, he can only rely on touch typing.
No wonder Federer's focus is entirely on his forehand position, preparing to block the straight line.
So, how should Gawain choose?
The whole world seems to be the only thing left with this straight line in front of you, and Federer is intercepting this straight line like a giant dragon.
