Two break points came and went, and then it was a deuce.
However, the crisis has not been resolved.
Gawain knew this, his brain knew this clearly, so he did not relax his vigilance and remained focused, but he needed to take a breath.
Not only Gawain, but also Federer, so the two of them walked to the sidelines to wipe their sweat and adjust a little.
In the past few points, no matter who scored, it was not actually who made a mistake or who performed poorly, it was entirely because the opponent performed well and seized the opportunity.
So, what does this mean?
Equal Opportunity.
Both players need to firmly grasp the opportunity in their own hands. They cannot expect their opponents to make mistakes, but they need to take the initiative to win.
The intensity of confrontation and game has indeed risen to a new level.
After a brief period of wiping sweat, the two players returned to the baseline and prepared to continue fighting.
a district.
interior angle.
Speed 180 kilometers per hour.
This time, it's not up close.
Not only is it not close, but Gao Wen also controls the landing point by reducing his speed to ensure the success rate of the first serve, aiming to serve at the T-point in the inner corner.
Serve and enter the zone smoothly.
Not only did it go in, but it was also close to the T point, and the serving point was very precise.
Federer did not expect that although his first reaction was timely and because Gawain lowered the serving speed to give him some time, he still caught up; but the hitting point was still a little late.
Federer's hitting method places strict requirements on the accuracy of the hitting point. There may be deviations early or late, so he often misses the shot.
Like now, if the hitting point is a moment late, the quality of the entire hitting will obviously decrease.
Federer could only choose to push the tennis ball back along the center with a flick of his wrist and his own unique hitting technique——
Tried to push deeper, but the effect was average.
Starting from the misjudgment, Federer was already passive.
A familiar situation appeared again. For the second time in a row, facing the inside corner serve, Federer hit the shot straight and sent it back along the central axis. In the game of serve and return, the two players were always calculating, and Federer immediately hit the ball.
Realizing his situation, how will Gawain choose to hit the ball this time?
Forehand? Backhand?
In just a moment of hesitation, Federer had already started moving towards the forehand position, but as soon as his feet left the ground, he caught the return ball.
Middle road.
straight line.
Go straight.
Return the ball against the wall.
Gawain's handling was clean and smooth, and the whole shot was very smooth. He faced forward with his backhand with both hands, and with one heavy beat, he knocked the tennis ball back along the central axis like it was hitting a wall, and following the stroke of the shot, the center of gravity was forward.
Leaning forward, he quickly moved forward without hesitation.
Go online.
Wait, go online?
Similar situations, different treatments, this is Gawain's current ability. In calculations and games, he makes full use of his arsenal, starting from the details, and the seemingly risky batting choices can always find a clear context.
And use your own layout to increase the insurance factor.
A surprise, absolutely a surprise.
Federer must admit that he didn't count this point.
From serving to hitting the net, every shot was beyond his expectation and different from the previous rounds. Is this Gawain's overall plan?
But will Federer surrender like this?
Of course not.
Passivity returned to passivity, but Federer's on-the-spot response was still very smart. He braked the steps he was about to move towards the forehand position without hesitation or hesitation. In an instinctive reaction, he unsheathed his sword with a one-handed backhand.
He pulled it out as if and slapped it in front of him.
Power, slash, burst.
In just a short moment, Federer regained his footing amid the chaos of swinging center of gravity, launched a cool and sharp attack with a one-handed backhand, and broke the net with a diagonal line.
What we are pursuing is a quick connection.
Federer raised his hand to hit without adjusting his center of gravity at all. In a flash, he pushed the tennis ball out and his whole arm was fully stretched.
boom!
There was thunder on the ground, and it exploded instantly.
However, a light blue light and shadow lay across the flight path of the tennis ball like a breeze. He held the racket tightly with both hands and blocked the shot with one shot.
Cull.
You can see from the batting action, a flying dive, a smash, Gao Wen's backhand with both hands instantly exerted force, and he grabbed a shot and volleyed at the mouth of the net.
Obviously, Gao Wen predicted Federer's return route, blocked the route without hesitation, blocked the shot, and ran out along the diagonal line.
The tennis ball rushed toward Federer's backhand like a heavy cannon, landed in the midfield, and then continued flying in the direction beyond the singles line.
Tread, tap, tap.
With light and graceful moving steps, he ran at full speed, causing the audience to scream in exclamation. His speed had increased to the extreme, and he even overran because he was running too fast.
But Federer didn't stop, and continued to rush forward, turning around while running, switching from backhand to forehand. Before his body's center of gravity was pulled away by centrifugal force, he jumped into the air with dizzying steps, swept sideways with a forehand, and swept his forearm.
The force of his wrist and wrist rushed out like a whip, striking a straight line inconceivably.
Counterattack!
Actually, he counterattacked.
Who would have thought!
Federer, who was completely passive, relied on his keen touch and delicate touch to reverse the situation. After some tossing and turning, he completed an incredible sideways forehand attack. His posture was as if he had entered space, completely getting rid of the constraints of gravity and moving lightly.
dance to tune.
Just like ballet.
Then, the tennis ball flew quickly in a straight line, trying to break through from Gawain's right side with a lightning gesture.
Well.
Gawain is moving sideways.
ah.
Kick off the ground, jump, and leap.
When he stood in front of the net, everything seemed to be involved in a kaleidoscope, entering a state of ten times speed. Gawain's footsteps were obviously too late. Even when he saw Federer's moving footsteps, he had already
It starts up, but is still a little slow.
So, jump and reach the top.
Gawain also got rid of the shackles of gravity, completely extending his forehand and stretching his body to the extreme.
A pounce.
One stop.
Just when the tennis ball was about to break through the blockade, Gawain's wrist felt the force of the impact of the tennis ball.
He doesn't panic.
Because he believed that he was fully prepared and that he could cope with all situations, he pushed the tennis ball back with his wrist wrapped around it.
There is no control, it's all about feeling.
bass.
The sound of the tennis ball rubbing against the racket strings was spinning and grinding. Before I had time to fully feel it, the reaction force had already dragged the tennis ball back.
Turn, turn, turn, follow the diagonal, flutter and fly.
On the opposite side of the net, Federer has regained his center of gravity, his steps are light and his body is as light as a swallow. He has changed direction at the tip of his toes and is speeding up diagonally.
Sprint, sprint, sprint again.
The acceleration burst out instantly, and Federer also burst out with a courage to move forward, staring at the tennis ball intently, and his speed increased to the extreme.
However, at this moment, Federer's pupils contracted rapidly. How...what happened?
The tennis ball crossed the net, fell quickly, and then rebounded. Judging from the height of the rebound, it was high enough and had enough space, leaving Federer enough space to complete the shot; but it also had an incredible spin, swaying, and swaying.
, crossed the net again and flew back.
This, what should I do?
The wind was blowing, but Federer's sprinting pace slowed down, and finally he stopped where he was, with eyes full of astonishment.
