"...At this point, Gawain's batting time was a little long."
"The first throw of the ball should have been somewhat affected. It looked like it was blinded by the lights at the scene. Gawain caught the tennis ball and was about to serve again, but Gawain still raised his hand to Kyrgios to apologize."
Tennis is an outdoor sport. When serving, you need to throw the ball high. However, there are many factors affecting the outdoor environment. Sometimes strong winds interfere with the toss. Sometimes the sun is glaring and the players cannot see the tennis ball. Sometimes the ball will be thrown on the clay court.
If there are flying sand and stones, these unexpected situations will affect the serve.
Therefore, if there is interference during the throwing process and the player does not make a swing to hit the ball, he can prepare for the serve again, and the serve will not be counted as a failed serve - this is allowed by the rules, and there is no
Number of times limit.
Suppose a player throws the ball five times in a row without serving, and then serves once, is it okay? According to the rules, this is certainly possible, but it is not necessary, because the failure of consecutive throws will only affect the serving side.
biggest.
Ana Ivanovic is the most typical representative.
Ivanovic's serving action is very unstable, which is the case when throwing the ball. The thrown ball may often be thrown slightly forward or slightly behind, or the height of the thrown ball may not be high enough due to lack of strength. In this case, the correct
The method should be not to serve, but to throw the ball again, but Ivanovic always forced the ball to complete the serving action.
The result is, the Queen of Double Faults.
The serving link is a coherent whole, and it is very particular when throwing the ball.
There were some problems as soon as Gawain threw the ball. After signaling to Kyrgios, Gawain needed to re-throw the ball.
At this time, you can feel that Kyrgios was irritable again, muttered and cursed a few more times, and then got ready to catch the ball.
Gawain threw the ball again, and this time there was no problem.
Zone 2, inner corner.
Once again, Gawain sneak attacked Kyrgios' forehand. Starting from the third set, Gawain tried this routine many times, but who would have thought that Gawain would be so bold in the tie-break!
This time, Kyrgios was highly focused, his entire reaction speed and kicking movements were very timely, and he immediately jumped towards the forehand position.
Chance!
Kyrgios's eyes suddenly brightened up, and he started to initiate the shot with his forehand early, swinging forward with all his strength while kicking the ground hard——
This is Gawain's first serve. If Kyrgios wants to fight for the first serve, then continue to hit the ball with all his strength, otherwise any hesitation may miss the best hitting point.
However, halfway through the swing, Kyrgios discovered that Gawain's serve was obviously slow. This was a deliberately weakened serve, which meant that Kyrgios continued to swing at this speed.
If you hit the ball, the impact point will be too early.
The hitting point is too early, what should I do?
In fact, if you look at the hitting technique of grabbing the rising point, you will know that the racket surface needs to be slightly upward, and your center of gravity needs to cooperate with the upward lifting movement; but if you do not cooperate with these detailed changes, you will not be able to exert force.
It's easy to hit the net too early, and it's easy to go out of bounds if the shot is too high.
Normally, with Kyrgios' talent in touch, he can handle such a de-forced serve very easily, and can hit it back with ease, or even kill it with one shot to form a winning point.
But at this time, Kyrgios's chest was burning with fire, and he couldn't wait to vent. Every cell in his body was screaming "hard, hard, hard, hard". If he continued to suppress it, he might be on the scene.
It exploded, especially when Gawain re-thrown the ball just now, which made Kyrgios' annoyance rise to a whole new level.
Then Kyrgios couldn't control it anymore and hit the ball with all his strength.
boom!
boom!
The tennis ball was bombarded directly back, as if Kyrgios was trying to hit the tennis ball with all his strength, but just as Kyrgios took action, he could hear incredible exclamations from Arthur Ashe Stadium——
The ball flew away, anti-aircraft gun!
"this!"
Zhan Jun was speechless for a moment, and then he couldn't help but feel a buzzing in his chest.
"Gaowen chose to serve with reduced force at this point, and added a lot of friction to the serve. The entire topspin ball was very spinning. We can see that the rotation speed has reached more than 3,600, which also broke Kyrgios's prediction.
It can be clearly seen that Kyrgios took the spin, hit the ball too early, and directly knocked the ball away."
"The serve is straight."
"In the tie-break of the fourth set, Gao Wen had already taken a '4:0' lead, and the point difference had widened in the blink of an eye."
Different from the tie-break in the third set, in this tie-break of the fourth set, Gawain obviously improved his condition, while Kyrgios seemed a little impetuous. Two of the current four points were Kyrgios' mistakes, and one point was due to Kyrgios' mistakes.
ACE, one point is the winning point in front of the net, and the balance of the game is broken instantly.
Kyrgios's mistakes were the theme throughout the fourth set, but they were further magnified in the tie-break, and the situation immediately became different. It seemed that the tie-break had just begun one second, and the next second it was high.
Wen has already widened the score gap, so can Gawain finish it in one go?
In the media center, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao could clearly feel the excitement and excitement of the other commentators - because everyone was about to witness the birth of history, no one was an exception; they themselves could not help but get excited.
However, on the court, Gao Wen seemed very calm and calm. He didn't even celebrate loudly. He turned around and was ready to continue his next serve.
There was a suffocating tension in Arthur Ashe Stadium, and the whole place was silent, but there was no trace of excitement at all.
a district.
Gao Wen chose an inside corner to serve, and this time he did not deliberately reduce the force. It was a standard flat serve, suppressing Kyrgios' backhand.
Although Kyrgios reacted quickly, his backhand was just barely able to counter the diagonal shot.
Gawain immediately entered the baseline and completed an iconic straight-line attack with a backhand shot with both hands, forcing Kyrgios to move quickly and awkwardly laterally to save the ball. However, he was unable to control his speed while running at full speed and overran slightly.
Then Kyrgios showed off his stunt again.
The whole person jumped up on the spot, put the racket behind him, and completed the crotch hit.
The scene was filled with exclamations. Even at such a critical moment, Kyrgios still did not forget the spirit of entertainment, as if he was mocking Gawain's concentration.
The acrobatic crotch shot flew high, and the entire parabola was stretched very full. Gawain, who was standing in front of the net, seemed to be a little too far forward. Instead, he gave Kyrgios a chance to make a magic shot.
The ball is about to pass through Gao Wen's coverage and go over the top!
but!
Gawain pulled a green onion from a dry land and bounced high into the air, just like a fadeaway shot in a basketball game, completing a high-pressure overhead shot while leaning back.
