Because it is a very large stadium, the flow of air can easily create wind noise, and you can always hear the gentle sound of wind whispering in your ears.
Gawain's mood was slowly settling down.
"calm!"
There is no essential difference between Isner and the powerful cannons of the NCAA, such as Domiyan, Kerbert, Thompson, etc. In the past, it was this type of player that Gao Wen was most afraid of facing, but that is no longer the case. He knows what to do.
Facing powerful players, he also knows how to open up the situation.
"Just stick to your strategy."
Gawain took another deep breath and returned to the bottom line.
Tiptoe, sway.
Shake, jump.
Left, right, left, right.
Attention is sharply focused again.
Isner, who was on the opposite side of the court, obviously had no influence. He looked up at Gawain, then swatted the ball twice again, and made his usual move, reaching his left hand behind his back and flicking the tennis ball between his legs.
Then use the racket to catch the rebounded tennis ball and prepare to serve.
Kick off the ground, throw the ball, turn, and swing the racket.
Once posted, still online.
interior angle.
Gao Wen didn't have time to measure the speed of the serve. The strength of his calf muscles suddenly burst out, and he immediately pushed his body laterally to the right.
Stretch, leap, soar into the air.
Gawain rushed out with light steps, and touched the ball with his forehand. The flexible wrist strength wrapped up the power of the tennis ball. However, Isner's serve was too heavy and too fast, and there was not much room for Gawain to wrap up the tennis ball.
It has already rebounded and flown away.
But Gawain's swing is still not over. He quickly pulls it towards the top of his head, trying his best to increase friction and attach as much topspin as possible to prevent the tennis ball from drilling into the sky like an anti-aircraft gun. Instead, he can use the rotation to fall.
Inbound.
rub!
The tennis ball flew high, drew a full parabola, and then fell towards the other half of the court like a rainbow.
In!
Isner's follow-up reaction was very fast, and he followed up with a series of small steps.
Gao Wen knew this danger, but the problem was that it was difficult to control the landing point of his return, and the tennis ball still fell towards the empty area between the service line and the baseline.
This area is also called the midfield ball, which is considered the most suitable area for attacking in tennis matches.
However, Isner did not take it lightly.
As he stepped forward, he looked up to observe the rotation and landing point of the tennis ball. He immediately realized the fast-spinning topspin. In other words, if he pressed down hard, once the angle of the racket surface was not found correctly, he might directly spin it.
The tennis ball flew away like an anti-aircraft gun.
careful!
Isner adjusted his steps continuously, but gave up his plan to draw the ball. Instead, he turned sideways and used a one-handed backhand to cut the shot, removing all the power and spin, and hit Gawain's backhand with a different line.
Very smart choice.
After Gao Wen reluctantly completed the ball, his steps were still wandering in the middle area, ready to defend, but when he realized Isner's hitting method, his steps immediately started——
The genius of Isner's shot selection lies in offloading.
Gauvin took it for granted that Isner would hit the ball with all his strength, and he stood obviously back and took a defensive posture. But now Isner hit a ball that was deflected and shallow, easily putting Gauvin into a passive position.
If it was Isner who needed to save the ball at this time, he would simply give up chasing the ball, but Gao Wen would not.
Kick, kick, kick!
Kick, kick, kick!
Gawain's steps rushing forward along the diagonal line were very fast, as if he could clearly see the strong wind and his body merging into one, and then his footsteps were already rushing towards him.
His backhand with both hands cut into the space between the ground and the tennis ball. I quickly glanced at Isner's position from the corner of his eyes. He had obviously already taken two long steps and rushed to the net. His height of more than two meters was like a wall.
It stretches across the line of sight like a wall, blocking all angles.
Lob the ball!
Gao Wen noticed Isner's knee movement to lower his center of gravity. Apparently he was worried that Gao Wen would directly break the net, so Gao Wen simply changed his batting technique and used the power of his wrist to flick the ball. This seemingly simple movement was actually very delicate.
And very carefully.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball just flew high.
Isner immediately realized that the situation was not good, and immediately stood up straight. With his height and long arms, he covered the sky like Spider-Man.
but!
“Over the top!”
Hu Litao was very, very surprised. They had never watched any of Gao Wen's games before. They had no idea that Gao Wen's touch was so good and so clever. With almost losing his center of gravity, the lofted ball actually went over Isner's head.
No easy task.
He thought that Gawain had lost the point, so he made a sound unexpectedly, but he quickly closed his mouth and concentrated on watching the flight path of the tennis ball.
Moreover, the landing point control is also very good, and it is actually within the bottom line!
Tap tap tap.
Tap tap tap.
At this point, Isner refused to give up. The moment the tennis ball went over the top, he realized that he seemed to be being played, and reflexively chased the tennis ball.
He arrived in just a few strides. Taking into account the chaos in the entire court, Isner did not turn around, but went straight over the tennis ball and hit a crotch ball.
The tennis ball struck out a main line and flew toward Gao Wen's court.
It actually passed the Internet!
The audience at the scene was overwhelmed. First they marveled at Gawain's lofted ball over the top, and then marveled at Isner's crotch hit. But before they could catch their breath, they could see that Gawain was already in place.
After the previous shot, Gao Wen did not relax his vigilance, but quickly adjusted his focus back to the midfield, paying close attention to Isner's hitting. When Isner chose to hit the ball with his crotch, Gao Wen
Wen was already running with all his strength towards his empty forehand——
Isner did not turn around, which meant that there was no way to know Gawain's position. So based on the space of the previous shot, his choice to break through Gawain's empty forehand was undoubtedly the best hitting route.
Tap tap tap!
Gawain's footsteps were running at full speed in the lightning speed, and in the blink of an eye he was on Isner's return line.
One step, one turn.
Then, with the help of the power of turning, the forehand swing is completely in line with the inertial track, using the power of the forearm to make a sweeping swing, and the speed of the racket head instantly increases to the extreme.
boom!
Isner was still turning around to adjust his steps, looking for the position of the tennis ball in a daze. Then he saw that Gao Wen's return ball had entered his own court, and he subconsciously flew towards his forehand, trying to catch the ball at the net.
Complete the interception before.
However, it was too late.
Gawain's forehand diagonal hit was fast and deflected, but in the blink of an eye, it had already broken through Isner's position and landed accurately on the right side of the court on Isner's side. After landing, it rebounded.
He quickly ran out, and then Isner slowly made a move to seal the net.
