The entire audience was excited, and some spectators could even be seen standing up, clenching their fists and beating their chests, roaring and roaring like King Kong.
They were looking forward to a wonderful duel, and then they saw a tense duel. This game was definitely worth the price of admission. The thunderous applause and cheers from the audience were as powerful as Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Court No. 17 was once the most remote, coldest and shabby venue at the edge of the US Open. It was known as the court that "ghosts" refused to approach. It was usually used as a practice venue. Only a few times the court was not enough.
It will be temporarily used as an alternate competition venue.
However, in 2009, Court No. 17 was overthrown and rebuilt. The brand-new stadium has become the freshest and liveliest competition venue outside the three main stadiums. It is on par with Court No. 1 and Court No. 2 and is also the favorite stadium for ordinary players.
Court No. 16 became the current "Court 17".
Although Court No. 17 can only accommodate 2,500 people, because the U.S. Open Tennis Open tickets are often sold through passes, which means that all venues except the three main courts can be watched freely, and spectators can choose what they like.
Entering the game - if the seats are full, you can still choose to watch from the outside.
Because there are no walls blocking the view from Court No. 1 to Court No. 17, the side facing the channel and even the space facing the channels on both sides are open.
In the second round, Gao Wen did not get the unique treatment of the three major courts, but he was still arranged in the popular No. 17 court. This treatment was obtained after Tobias applied to the organizing committee.
At this moment, Court No. 17 is packed with seats, and the aisles on both sides are already bustling with spectators. Everyone knows that a wonderful five-set match is going on here, and more and more spectators are arriving one after another.
The air also burned like sunset.
"Ah! Ahhh!"
Gawain clenched his fists tightly and vented all his emotions unscrupulously. There was a murderous look in his eyes as he looked toward the other side of the stadium.
Decisive victory?
Now is the real climax!
Breathing, Borrelli's chest heaved violently. At this point, he did not expect, he did not expect at all that Gawain would suddenly accelerate the attack. Even though he had made a comprehensive plan, he was still forced to break the balance by Gawain. That's it.
Lost serve.
What to do next?
Clearly, Borrelli was not ready to give up.
For Gao Wen, he very, very much hopes to continue his strong performance and advance to the next round against the unseeded player Burelli.
This is especially true for Burelli. Against the biggest dark horse in the first round, Gauvin, he is naturally very much looking forward to breaking his best record at the US Open. Is there any better opportunity than this one?
What's more, both sides have already reached the deciding set, which also means that both sides have opportunities and everything is possible.
The experienced Borrelli immediately found his footing, and after a short break in the game, he immediately launched a fierce attack on Gawain's serve.
In this round, the two sides fell into a fierce battle.
Back and forth, there were six draws, and wonderful rounds came one after another. Both players gave their best performances. Gao Wen missed two game points and saved four break points. It took a lot of time.
Fourteen minutes later, he seized his third game point and secured serve.
"4:2".
Breaking first and then holding, Gao Wen finally took the lead in opening the score in the deciding set and established his break advantage. However, he could not rest after holding serve, and immediately needed to enter Burelli's next service game.
