Seeing Gao Wen chipping two consecutive forehand shots, gaining breathing and adjustment time from the previous tug-of-war and the unexpected chaos of point and return service, Djokovic took the lead in attacking without hesitation.
After all, it belongs to Gawain now, and Djokovic has no choice.
"ah!"
Djokovic is also at the end of his strength. His physical strength that has been delayed and delayed finally begins to explode. The confrontation in the last point has an even greater impact on him than Gawain, but he has no way out. When he sees an opportunity, he must
Try to catch it, otherwise the situation will be even worse.
Therefore, Djokovic once again made the sound of joining forces, squeezing out the last bit of energy from his body.
"Uh-huh!"
Djokovic, come on.
Here, backhand with both hands in a straight line, aiming for the big triangle hammer on the bottom line.
That box, forehand cutting, slash, push gap.
Here, the forehand slash is "inside-out" and the attack is continuous.
On that side, forehand cutting, middle road, pushing into the deep zone.
Here, sideways, forehand and backslash, continuous force, aiming for the sideline hammer.
On that side, cross the court, backhand with both hands, continue cutting, continue in the middle.
The situation is subtle and strange.
Djokovic has been exerting force, and Gao Wen has been cutting.
Djokovic kept speeding up, and Gawain kept slowing down.
The positions of the two players... seemed to be reversed, and not only the positions were exchanged, the tension of the confrontation was always permeated throughout the round. In completely different ways, Djokovic kept trying to break the game, and Gao Wen kept trying.
The layout is entangled with each other.
but!
Gawain chipped five shots in a row, which was so weird and surprising that the Arthur Ashe Stadium was stunned and couldn't react for a while.
and!
Gao Wen succeeded. When cutting for the fifth consecutive shot, Djokovic finally ran out of energy.
Don't forget that Djokovic is not the type who is good at taking the initiative. He held on for a while and continued to attack, but gradually became exhausted.
At this time, facing Gawain's cutting again, Djokovic finally couldn't hold on anymore, turned his body sideways, reluctantly took a forehand shot, and pushed into the deep area along a straight line, trying to use this transition ball to limit Gawain.
; But for Gawain it was a different story.
Chance!
Moving in small steps continuously, Gao Wen got into position smoothly, and used the force to hit the forehand without hesitation.
Push flat.
work hard.
straight line.
Gao Wen did not change his route, but followed the route of Djokovic's ball and pushed straight back in the middle of his right half.
Go straight.
Hitting the wall head on.
"Straight Line VS Straight Line 2.0".
"Forehand VS Backhand 3.0".
"Straight Line VS Straight Line 4.0".
Again! Got entangled again!
In fact, the line has always been on the same track, that is, Gao Wen's forehand and Djokovic's backhand are in confrontation. Even the hitting line has not changed much, which is the middle and middle of Gao Wen's right half.
The center of Djokovic's left half looks like a canal channel.
However, the two players have been changing, depth, rotation, rhythm, etc., on the same line, entangled their opponents to form a confrontation.
It seems simple, but in fact it is tight——
Round, they got entangled again.
A subtle stalemate, like a slow simmer on a low fire, slowly brewed the atmosphere at Arthur Ashe Stadium, and then the entire stadium entered an anaerobic state.
In the tenth round, Djokovic hit the board with a two-hand backhand diagonally, and Gao Wen made a diagonal moonshot with a two-hand backhand to press the baseline in a thrilling way to resolve the crisis.
In the seventeenth round, Gao Wen used a two-handed backhand and slashed the angle again, and Djokovic slid and did a split to save the ball and hit the dead corner with a slash to complete the counterattack.
The stalemate is still spreading. Both players are looking for opportunities, but their opponents always counterattack with superior performance, further falling into a stalemate.
The Arthur Ashe Stadium fell into a blank, all thoughts and ideas were erased, and it was like a robot watching the flight of the tennis ball.
In the twenty-nineth round, Djokovic took the lead in opening up the angle with his forehand. As a result, Gao Wen further opened up the angle with his forehand, and continued to hammer hard, speeding up instantly, and his forehand exploded in an instant, attacking with three consecutive shots.
Continuous layers upon layers crashed over each other like waves.
Djokovic was shaky and in danger, but he relied on his powerful ball to complete an incredible line change and break free from the pressure to reverse the situation.
The whole audience exclaimed in surprise.
In the forty-third round, Djokovic launched a surprise attack on his backhand position, aiming at Gao Wen's two baseline endpoints and launching a full-scale attack. He shot one shot at the left end of the blind spot and the other at the right end of the blind spot. He relied on the ball to control the line and landing point, forcing
Gawain was running all over the field, attacking one after another, making Gawain extremely embarrassed.
Gao Wen was like an ant running back and forth around the baseline, his staggering steps almost unstoppable, but he relied on a straight backhand shot to suppress the dead corner of the baseline, restricting Djokovic's forehand swing, so that
The quality of the ball return decreases and the breathing space is regained.
The whole audience was stunned.
incredible!
Incredible!
The two players have completely entered an anaerobic state. Before each attack, they not only need to lay out, but also need to accumulate strength. The round is completely mired in quagmire; but the point is that when one side launches an attack, the other side can always keep up with the rhythm to resolve the crisis. Again
Taking the confrontation to a whole new level.
And, this is still.
!
On the Internet, the showdown between the world's No. 1 and the No. 2 in the world easily lasted for more than forty shots. It was not the forty shots of feeding each other the ball in the practice match, but the forty shots of calculation and gaming, offense and defense.
It was a true Huashan sword debate, and both players had played to the extreme.
It was white-hot, really white-hot, so much so that the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium was almost melting.
The stalemate continues.
Huh!
There was a cry of exclamation, because Gawain used a backhand with both hands to launch another attack.
Huh!
The excitement escalated as Gao Wen directly turned sideways and attacked with a forehand to open up the angle.
Huh!
Stunned, Djokovic hit a magic shot with his forehand. When the ball rebounded, he took a shot and incredibly managed to maneuver the tennis ball back to Gawain's forehand corner of the bottom line.
Press line.
In this round, the line has been pressed countless times, and as the round progresses, the thrilling and exciting effects increase exponentially.
One second, Gao Wen was still attacking continuously, and the next second, Djokovic's return made Gao Wen passive.
Gao Wen had no time to retreat and refused to retreat. He barely hit the ball with his forehand and used the lift to rub the tennis ball, but he failed to control the depth of the return ball.
Djokovic struck directly without hesitation, rose into the air, hammered his forehand, aimed at Gawain's forehand baseline triangle, and struck repeatedly.
boom!
Vigorous and mighty, even after so many beats and even after completely entering an anaerobic state, Djokovic still burst out with energy in an instant.
Gawain was in a very embarrassed state. He had no time to retreat. He stopped suddenly and pulled back. He was already preparing to return to defense and returned to his forehand. He hit a low rebound ball at his feet for the second time in a row.
, but the situation is completely different, and the power comes layer by layer.
The center of gravity that had not yet had time to stand firm and the slightly trembling knees could not withstand the impact of the force and air waves, and were about to be overturned directly——
