A shout came from Arthur Ashe Stadium, where the audience was holding their breath, like thunder on the ground, but the problem was that the tennis ball was still flying in the air, and it was impossible to judge whether it was out of bounds; and Gawain was preparing to hit the ball, so this sound was coming from
Curse Gao Wen's high-pressure ball out of bounds?
This is batting interference.
He.
The audience was frightened by this shout, and the sound of gasping for air was heard, and it was obvious that Arthur Ashe Stadium was in commotion.
The interference effect is more obvious.
Buzz buzz.
Buzz buzz.
Gao Wen knew that he had to maintain a high degree of concentration. The important core of a tennis match is the hitting point, and with high-pressure balls, because the tennis ball is in a state of free fall, the superposition of gravity acceleration makes it more difficult to find the hitting point. It seems that the simplest
High-pressure balls are actually the most error-prone.
Small steps. Small steps. Small steps.
Gawain's steps were always adjusting, he raised his chin high, walked through the bright lights of Arthur Ashe Stadium, and searched for the trace of the tennis ball in the night sky.
Then... push on the ground, jump lightly, swing the racket, and press down.
It can be clearly seen that Gawain is ready to use all his strength, but!
At the moment of the release, Gao Wen's wrist did a trick. Instead of hitting the ball with full force and high pressure, he turned and turned his wrist like a point-killing action in badminton, rubbing and flicking the tennis ball out at the moment of release.
Evolving from force to rotation.
Whoosh.
The tennis ball fell gently, all its strength was removed, and it landed lightly on the other side of the net, almost falling into the court close to the net.
A perfect smash and a small ball stuck to the net, even if Nadal is on the opposite side, it is impossible to catch it.
Tread. Tread. Tread.
Tennis quickly became a dead ball with two jumps.
Huh!
The audience gasped again, but this time the sound was completely drowned out by thunderous applause and cheers before they could gather.
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
You can even see most of the fans standing up and applauding Gawain with incredible applause——
Light and clever, full of aura and wonderful.
Gawain indeed showed too much to the Arthur Ashe Stadium, and then you can see Gawain opening his arms and bowing politely towards the stadium, as if he had just completed a performance
General.
That calm and confident movement immediately made the cheers on the scene rise to a higher level. At this moment, Arthur Ashe Stadium was really boiling.
Kyrgios knew that Gawain was deliberately humiliating him. Whether it was the high-pressure ball kill or the polite smile at the end, everything was provoking his nerves.
If it were any other opponent, Kyrgios would also have applauded at this time, because this high pressure shot was indeed beautiful; but Gawain?
He refused.
"15:40".
Gao Wen got the break point for the first time in the match.
After the curtain call, Gawain did not return directly to the bottom line. Instead, he faced Kyrgios and looked at him with stern eyes. With a hint of contempt, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and then he began to slowly walk backwards towards the bottom line.
Although he did not speak, his provocative actions were clear:
"Are you scared?"
If it wasn't fear, why did Gao Wen make noises to interfere with the ball when he was hitting the ball with high pressure?
It has been mentioned more than once before that tennis matches still retain gentlemanly etiquette, because players need to remain absolutely focused when hitting the ball, so the audience needs to be as quiet as possible during the hitting process.
If spectator noise or camera flashes have affected the progress of the game, according to the official rules, the referee has the right to request a replay of the point.
And if the players themselves interfere with the game by making noises, such as celebrating in advance before the tennis ball has landed, interfering with the linesman's judgment on whether the return ball is out of bounds; such as making noises to interfere with the opponent's hitting before the tennis ball has even jumped twice, this is a violation.
According to the rules, no matter how outrageous the ball goes out of bounds, it will not work.
Serena Williams once encountered such a situation at the US Open. When her opponent's return ball was obviously going to fly out of bounds, her attack resulted in a victory, so she clenched her fists to celebrate before the tennis ball hit the ground. As a result, she was warned by the referee to lose the ball.
One point - for interfering with the proceedings.
Obviously, what Kyrgios just did was unprofessional.
In Kyrgios' view, he was just making a little joke. He believed that Gawain would not be stupid enough to miss that shot. However, when Gawain interpreted it in this way, it immediately turned into that he was afraid that Gawain would get a break point.
This made Kyrgios's anger immediately burn, and he clenched his fists involuntarily.
Eyes wide open with anger.
However, just as Kyrgios and Gawain were having a nervous battle, the referee's voice came from the microphone.
"Kyrgios, a warning."
"During the game, it is prohibited to make any noise to interfere with the opponent's batting, and any form of noise that affects the progress of the game is prohibited."
In a tennis match, there are no yellow cards or red cards, but the referee has huge power. They can warn players. After accumulating warnings, they can fine points, penalty games, and in the most serious cases, they can even deny the victory of the game - of course.
, this is the most severe punishment and rarely occurs.
At this time, the referee gave Kyrgios a warning for his behavior just now.
Kyrgios suddenly exploded.
"I was just making a joke, a joke! Can't you take a joke?"
Kyrgios strode towards the referee, his anger instantly swept towards the referee.
"What's more, he has already scored and is obviously not disturbed. Why do you still warn me? Are you deliberately favoring him?"
"Is it because you don't like me?"
The referee was not afraid of Kyrgios at all and moved the microphone away. Because of the height of the referee's chair, he spoke lightly to Kyrgios from top to bottom.
"I act according to the rules. If you continue to speak rudely, I can continue to give you warnings."
"You can choose to return to the game, or you can choose to continue to offend the referee and challenge the rules of the game here."
The referee was very, very tough and hit him straight back. Obviously, from the beginning, the referee began to be wary of Kyrgios, who was like a wild horse.
Gawain just heard the beginning and did not stop. He turned around and returned to the bottom line, keeping his concentration and concentration and not being affected by unexpected situations.
On the surface, Kyrgios was affected and he was the one who had the dispute with the referee, but in fact the entire game was forced to press the pause button. The atmosphere permeating the stadium was the same for both sides, and so was Gawain's rhythm.
Being disrupted, the impact of such an accident on the game is unpredictable.
Therefore, Gawain needs to focus on himself.
Kyrgios struggled with the referee for a while, but in the end he still couldn't find any breakthrough. When the fans at the scene started to boo one after another, he finally ended the argument with the referee, talking to himself and cursing.
He turned around and stepped angrily towards the bottom line.
