As Gao Wen's return ball hit the net, the referee announced the score again, and at the same time, Sofar also let out a regretful sigh.
"... Judging from the results, Gao Wen's kicking strength was still slightly insufficient, and relying solely on the pull of the upper body was not enough. As a result, the return ball did not pass the net, and he missed the second break point in this game, and also the second
The sixth break point of the set.”
"But looking at the entire confrontation, Jilong's forehand broke Gawain's body balance in a straight line, which established an advantage and forced Gawain to fail to gain a firm footing while moving quickly, so his kicking power could not keep up. This point is also
I must commend Giron for playing very proactively and not being soft on break points."
"This is the fifth tie break in this round."
"Geelong missed three game points, and Gao Wen missed two break points. Both players played very hard, almost burning the last bit of energy without reservation. It can be seen that Gao Wen very, very much hopes to win in the first game."
The balance was broken at the end of the second set, but Geelong still performed well."
"From my personal point of view, this is indeed the best and most intense game in this year's U.S. Championship. Both players have displayed all their weapons, and with their physical strength and energy reaching the extreme, they played super
Perform at a high level and rely on willpower to fight.”
"Wow."
"No matter who wins the final victory, there is no doubt that they deserve this championship."
There was also a sense of tension in the stands of the stadium, excitement and nervousness, excitement and apprehension. The hot air made it almost impossible to breathe. My heart was on the verge of bursting, but I couldn't stop. I just looked forward to the match being more exciting and exciting.
——
If it's a little more ferocious, I can still bear it!
Pah. Pah. Pah.
Jilong is shooting the ball, and the two are still on the same starting line. Whether the next point will be a break point or a game point still needs to be determined after a battle.
From the first set to the second set, Jilong had faced this situation many times, so he was very calm and not nervous at all.
Serve, inside corner.
It is a first serve, but the physical strength of both players has dropped significantly. At this time, the strength and speed have dropped significantly. Even if it is a first serve, the speed is not fast. Instead, it is better to pursue the angle and form suppression. After all, Gawain does not have enough now.
The explosive power directly connected the serve with the ace.
Inside corner, backhand.
Gao Wen's prediction was very accurate and he took a step forward, but the force of kicking his legs was still a little weaker, and his speed was naturally a little slower. He did not grab the ball point with his backhand with both hands, but just completed the move in an orderly manner.
I hit the backhand ball, but because my prediction was accurate, the combined force point of the ball was still closed.
boom!
Very solid hitting!
Gawain successfully used a backhand shot to push the tennis ball back into the wall, returning it the way it came. The ball was pressed very deep, only about a big step away from the baseline.
Jiron quickly adjusted his steps and hit a shot with his forehand. His swing was almost impossible to pull away, but he just managed to use his strength to push the tennis ball back and fly towards Gawain's forehand position.
Adjust, adjust.
Gao Wen adjusted in two small steps in succession, and pulled a diagonal shot with his forehand, trying to open up the angle, but his control was significantly reduced, his swing speed could not keep up, and the angle line did not reach the ideal state. The effect presented
It's more like a basic transition shot.
Naturally, Geelong was in place very quickly.
A burst of small steps fell into place like a tornado, and there was even time to adjust the steps and swing.
Kick off the ground, turn around, and swing the racket.
Giron's forehand force was very solid, bouncing back all the power superimposed by Gawain on the tennis ball, actively changing the line, and hitting a straight line.
"Exerting force vs exerting force"!
Both players realize that offensive opportunities do not appear so easily, so when they see a slightly suitable opportunity, they must act boldly and directly, otherwise they will fall into passivity.
Be it Gawain or Jilong, both of them showed their courage at critical moments!
boom!
The power shot was also very solid, with power and speed. However, like Gao Wen, Jilong's racket head speed did not increase at the moment of shooting. It was slightly lacking, and the straight line was not completely straight.
To put it simply, the angle was not controlled well, which also left Gaowen enough time to defend.
Tap tap tap.
Tap tap tap!
After a few long strides, he had already arrived, and he observed Jilong's position out of the corner of his eye——
After finishing the forehand hit, Jilong immediately realized that the offensive quality was a little lacking, and his feet moved quickly laterally, preparing to defend the entire backhand gap on the left side.
Why? Isn't he worried about Gawain's straight backhand?
Mainly because of the decline in physical strength, Gao Wen's shot control is often poorer. In the second half of the second set, several backhand straight lines have already hit the net. Under such circumstances, it is safer and more efficient to hit the diagonal line.
Reasonable choice.
What's more, Gawain's backhand slash also has the ability to hit a small slash with a skateboard, which is also a very lethal shot.
Defending the slash, this is a reasonable choice.
Gawain had already noticed the direction of Jilong's movement, his brain was spinning rapidly, and he had already taken a step forward.
A big step!
Just this big step made Gao Wen's body quickly approach the flight path of the tennis ball in an instant, grabbing the rising point after landing and rebounding, and then the lead-in of the two-handed backhand was completed.
Bend your knees.
The center of gravity is lowered.
Gao Wen, who is 193 centimeters tall, completely lowered his body, and the swing trajectory of the backhand with both hands was from bottom to top. With the force of pushing his knees straight, he relied on the forward inertia of the previous step to make up for the lack of physical strength.
In short supply, he gritted his teeth and completely increased the speed of the racket head.
Ahhhh!
The sound of muscle bursting was released instantly, the backhand swing with both hands was completed, and then the whole person pressed forward. At the moment of release of the shot, the ball was controlled by the strength of the wrist, pushing forward and tilting outward.
boom!
The power deep in the Dantian burst out, and with a scolding sound, the whole body pressed forward. After the tennis ball flew out, it continued to move forward with the swing, using such inertial movements to increase the tail power of the swing.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball turned into a ray of light and shadow, suddenly changed its line, suddenly picked up speed, and flew out at lightning speed.
Fast! Straight! Heavy!
The tennis ball changed its flight trajectory, pulled out a straight line, successfully changed its line, and rushed towards most of the completely cleared field.
Land. Bounce.
In the blink of an eye, the tennis ball hit the rear baffle.
Jilong made a complete misjudgment, his steps were still moving to his left, and then the audience burst into cheers.
"Take the lead, high."
As the referee reported the score, Gawain clenched his fists again. He no longer had much energy to roar, but the murderous look in his eyes was still rolling. He crossed the court and looked fiercely towards Jilong, and a flash of light burst out from the depths of his soul.
The resolute and fierce energy mobilized all the little energy left in the fuel tank and burned it fiercely.
It's as if you can see the blue color of your soul burning.
