Running wildly all the way, watching the distance between Gawain and Tennis getting closer and closer.
However!
The pace did not slow down at all. With a "swish", Gawain had already surpassed him and continued to move forward. As soon as he was in a daze, the dislocation was already formed.
Originally, Djokovic pushed a straight shot, which was Gawain's forehand position.
But Gao Wen must turn his back to Djokovic to return to the baseline, which is equivalent to facing a tennis ball. The tennis ball's landing point switches to the backhand position. Under such circumstances, the difficulty of completing the shot with a two-handed backhand rises sharply, almost
It's an impossible task.
If you switch to hitting the ball under the crotch, or turn around and hit the ball, Djokovic's deep baseline shot will not bounce high, leaving limited space. Even if the shot is successfully completed, the difficulty of line control will be exponential.
The ground rises.
Disaster!
It’s hard to reach the sky!
Now, Gawain sprints at full speed, just like running a 100-meter race, completing the overtake at speed. When his footsteps cross the landing point of the tennis ball and continue to rush forward, the tennis ball falls behind Gawain, and then the positions of Gawain and the tennis ball are switched again.
This also allows Gauvin to try to hit the ball with his forehand.
The risk is that Gawain's footwork is, in a word, "fast". He must speed up and speed up again to buy himself time to switch positions.
Otherwise, the hitting space is fleeting.
Life hangs on a thread.
Kick off, rush forward, switch, dislocate.
at this time--
With his back to the court, Gawain held the racket with one hand, hanging the racket low, his arms hanging naturally, relying on the racket head, and flicked the tennis ball just before it hit the ground again.
The simplest and most basic shot of hitting the ball, without any fancy, builds the three-dimensional space of the court in the brain, and wraps the tennis ball with the wrist.
Snapped.
Gently, simply, scoop it up.
Buzz.
The faint vibration of the impact of the tennis ball and the racket string stayed on the wrist. Then, with a step of the right foot and a tap of the left foot, the body had completed its clockwise rotation.
One hundred and eighty degrees.
Gawain faced the court again. At this time, he happened to see the flight path of the tennis ball crossing the net. He immediately started his steps and reflexively prepared to hit the net.
Everything in the field of vision slows down ten times or a hundred times——
Tennis ball, in flight.
Djokovic, on the move.
However, the two shadows were completely staggered, one going to the right and the other to the left, running in opposite directions.
Djokovic's expression was slightly startled, he braked suddenly and prepared for a second start. Before his feet could leave the ground, the tennis ball had already broken through from his forehand diagonally, so that his muscles were tense to the extreme.
Nailed in place, watching the flight path of the tennis ball.
dislocation.
breakthrough.
In the air, a faint rustling sound can be heard, as if a tennis ball is drilling into the water, splashing water splashes, and a ball of light mist explodes.
——Within the boundary.
Score.
"30:30".
Buzz!
"wonderful!"
“Amazing!”
“Absolutely wonderful!”
"This point is undoubtedly the best round since the start of the game."
"Gao Wen broke the deadlock, and Djokovic counterattacked brilliantly, but in the end it was Gao Wen who finished the match with a rhino looking at the moon with his back to the court."
The so-called rhinoceros looking at the moon actually refers to looking at things from one side, because the rhinoceros horn blocks the view.
However, it is just right to use it at this time.
Because Gawain had his back to the court and his field of vision was blocked, he could not see clearly what was going on in the court, but he relied entirely on inspiration and intuition to complete this shot.
"Absolutely wonderful! Absolutely wonderful!"
"Gaowen used this round to resolve a small crisis. There is no break point in this game yet, '30:30'."
Zhan Jun's voice was very excited, even slightly hoarse.
Although the first set of the game was already very tight at the beginning, it went to a higher level in the middle of the set and definitely lived up to expectations.
"Now, the battle for momentum between the two players has become intense. It is not just tactics and techniques, but also the grasp of key points."
"Whether it's Gawain or Djokovic, they are all mobilizing their state and trying to control the game."
Obviously, Djokovic was in a rage because of his poor decision in the previous game and losing serve, but Gao Wen's response was strong enough and outstanding enough.
On the court, sparks are everywhere——
On one side, Gawain clenched his fists, looking directly into Djokovic's eyes with high fighting spirit in his eyes.
On the other side, Djokovic glanced at Gawain calmly, silently wiped his sweat with his wristband, and turned to leave.
There were no cheers, no shouts, no roars. The Arthur Ashe Stadium had gone crazy, but the two players showed extraordinarily calmness.
The undercurrent is raging.
Smoke filled the air.
Then.
The provocation from Gawain appears again.
a district.
One shot to the outside corner.
Gao Wen completely separated the angle. Although Djokovic was very determined in his forehand diagonal return and tried to use the action of quickly tearing the ball to create an impact, Gao Wen stood in the forehand position without warning.
Just cut into small balls.
The whole audience was shocked.
The ball was cut and released for the second consecutive time, but this time it was an obvious humiliation and surprise. In the first attack after the serve, Gao Wen cut the ball.
First of all, this move is often used on clay courts because the player's position when receiving the serve is relatively backward and the starting speed is relatively slow.
Secondly, this move is often used by Federer, breaking the rules and routines, and using unparalleled offensive methods that are overwhelming.
but now?
Obviously, Djokovic was mentally prepared. He realized that Gao Wen might break the space on the court and use different means to fully open up the situation; but Djokovic still did not expect that it would come so fast and come so hard.
Suddenly, he was tricked again.
Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it.
Second consecutive point, but Djokovic is still not ready——
It's rare in a Djokovic match for a player to defy his expectations twice in a row and get him into trouble with the same routine.
However, Gawain did so and succeeded.
It's still a small ball.
This is indeed a humiliation.
Djokovic's speed and power burst out instantly. He sprinted from the baseline to the net at a very fast speed, showing his mobility as the king of hard courts. Before he even had time to blink, his footsteps were already in front of the net.
.
Sprint.
Slide step.
Push.
Djokovic once again observed Gawain's position, pushed a straight shot with his forehand, and aimed at the bottom corner of Gawain's backhand and pushed it out.
In fact, Djokovic can choose to replay the small ball because Gao Wen's footsteps have also entered the baseline.
But Djokovic also has the pride of Djokovic. Since Gao Wen cut the ball for the second time in a row, he also deliberately chose to cut long and deep for the second time in a row.
Game, contest, collision, everywhere.
Similar patterns and routines appeared twice in a row, but the situation was completely different.
Gawain was well prepared, and his retracement of steps was obviously more comfortable; at the same time, Djokovic's second start was also faster, the secretion of adrenaline was obviously accelerated, and the entire reaction speed entered a high-speed mode.
Retreat. Adjust. Retreat. Observe.
Gao Wen moved while looking at the overall situation. Djokovic's return of the ball was indeed excellent, accurately pressing the bottom line dead corner, making full use of the court space, and successfully squeezing Gao Wen.
