On one side, Nadal slid forward and made the ultimate save.
On one side, Gao Wen leaped to the top and completed the volley in front of the net.
In the back and forth, both players have demonstrated their bodies and abilities to the fullest, burning and incineration without reservation. After pushing to the extreme, both players lost their balance. It is a rare scene.
The entire O2 Arena was briefly engulfed in lava and smoke.
There was silence.
Everything is quiet.
One second, two seconds, the sound of time passing gently hits the heart, and the tiny ripples slowly spread out, and in the blink of an eye they turn into a stormy sea that swallows up all the reason, and sets off a mountain roaring tsunami in the brain.
ah!
crazy.
Ahhhh!
Completely crazy, madly plunged into the heat wave.
, cashed in, bringing this unparalleled peak showdown to an end in an incredible way, and the ultimate roller coaster experience finally came to the end.
After a fierce battle of two hours and fourteen minutes, although Nadal saved two and broke Gauvin's first serve to win the game, Gauvin still showed his growth and transformation on the third one and won the game with the net.
The forward diving and volleying method was successfully realized.
The whole game is over——
"6:3", "3:6", "6:4".
Gao Wen wins.
Incredible and wonderful, who can resist such a moment?
Cheering, screaming, jumping, roaring, venting, blooming and partying, not only because of the victory, but also because of the perfect performance of the two players, once again interpreting the greatest charm of competitive sports and showing the spirit of human beings to constantly challenge themselves and challenge their limits. It is worthy of being
The battle between two gods of war.
A mighty heat wave filled the whole place.
On the court.
Gawain lay flat on the ground, a little exhausted, his knees were shaking slightly, every nerve and cell in his body was protesting, but he was not tired or empty, it was a pure and simple feeling of intoxication, which was like fireworks.
Generally blooms in every corner of the body.
Strictly speaking, it's not even joy or happiness, it's just a kind of pure pleasure, a kind of relaxation after challenging yourself to the limit.
The smile just creeps up to the corners of my mouth.
Then, a figure appeared in front of him——
Nadal.
Sweating profusely, his face was red, and there was unconcealable tiredness between his brows, but the smile under his eyes and at the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He stretched out his right hand towards Gawain, and raised his left eyebrow, exchanging a joking look.
Gawain raised his heavy right hand and slammed it into Nadal's right hand. He clasped his hands tightly. Gawain stood up with the help of Nadal's strength. The two good friends hugged each other, and everything went without saying anything.
At this moment. At this moment.
Words are really too pale and too light. Their respect and admiration for each other have been poured into the game and expressed in a fighting way. When the game ends, they have no reservations.
Maybe Nadal is still not in 100% condition, maybe he is not the best Nadal on the indoor hard court, but one thing is for sure -
Playing against Nadal always brings out the best in you.
Every encounter is a test, a challenge, and also a tempering and polishing. They become better versions of themselves through the collision on the court.
This is the most rare thing.
Gao Wen patted Nadal on the back and said, "Man, this is my honor."
A smile appeared on Nadal's lips, "I tried hard. Believe me, I really tried hard."
Gawain understood immediately, "And you will continue to fight, right?"
Nadal grinned and said, "How's it going? Have you prepared your offseason training plan?"
Gawain responded with a dumbfounded expression, and then shook his head repeatedly, "Brother, slow down, slow down, let's focus on the semi-finals in front of us first, how about? I regret it now. I seem to have worked too hard today and my calves are starting to cramp.
."
Nadal was a little worried and immediately looked down at Kirk's calf. He immediately realized that Gao Wen was joking, but he still asked with concern. After all, Gao Wen still fell down when he jumped to the top in the last point, "It's okay."
Bar?"
Gawain laughed happily, "Don't worry, I will survive. How about it, see you in the finals?"
Nadal's left eyebrow raised vividly again, "Slow down, slow down, brother, let's focus on the next game first, how about it?"
Nadal borrowed the same sentence from Gawain and joked back.
"Ha ha!"
The two friends exchanged glances, and then both laughed heartily.
The game is over——
This is why Gao Wen likes to compete with Nadal. He is conscientious and diligent. Everything is about tennis. You can feel his love for this sport and a pure emotion in him.
In fact, Nadal has been struggling on the tour for ten years. If you persist in any thing for ten years, you will inevitably get tired, including the other three giants. They always need some breathing space; but in Nadal
In Dahl, his love and passion can always be felt. He has been down-to-earth and demonstrated his professionalism for ten years.
This is really rare.
Both Sampras and Agassi experienced professional burnout at different times and wished they could stay away from the court and completely isolate tennis from their own world. After retiring, they did not return to the tennis world immediately.
What's more, someone like Nadal has gone through the test of injuries again and again, and has always maintained an innocent heart and never forgotten his original intention amidst boring training, miserable rehabilitation and countless setbacks.
Occasionally, Gao Wen will think about what he will look like in five or ten years, but there is still no picture. After all, his career is only in the second year, and the future is really too far away; but now, he hopes that he can be like Nadal.
Likewise, continue to challenge yourself and continue to love challenges.
Finally, standing in front of the net, the two friends hugged each other again.
"good luck!"
"good luck!"
After sending blessings to each other, they let go of their arms, shook hands with the referee one after another, and then walked to the players' rest area.
When Nadal packed up his equipment and left, Gao Wen was the first to straighten his back and take the lead in applauding Nadal. Then a rare scene appeared on the court.
"Bah! Rafa!"
"Bah! Rafa!"
The entire audience stood up and showed respect with applause and cheers. Nadal could leave the court with his head held high. He is definitely not a loser.
In fact, the audience had very high expectations for this year's year-end finals, but they never expected that the suspense of the group stage would be resolved early. Even the match between Federer and Djokovic was lower than expectations and failed.
Showing the elegance of the peak battle of Huashan Sword Theory.
On the contrary, Nadal, who recovered at the end of the season but did not receive much attention, performed better and better, and finally teamed up with Gao Wen to give a perfect match. This was the game that the fans and the audience had been waiting for.
The game itself, beyond victory or defeat, brought a feast to the London Stadium.
Nadal, it’s worth it!
It wasn't until Nadal left the court that Gao Wen returned to the court. The sound above the O2 Stadium gathered little by little until it turned into a storm.
Listen, that's the sound of the heart hitting the chest.
