If it were before, Gao Wenxu would often choose to attack, trying to create an advantage and seize the initiative by taking the initiative, but now Gao Wenxu is smarter——
To be precise, it should be that my thoughts have become clear again.
Facing Djokovic, aimless and unreasonable attacks are ineffective. Unless he is a genius like Kyrgios who can rush to the end, even Wawrinka will have to attack forcefully.
It all depends on the timing, the situation, and the score, otherwise a bull rush will turn into a stupid bull rush.
Stand firm! Swing! Hit the ball!
Facing Djokovic's hitting, Gao Wen's entire hitting action was very solid and very relaxed. He did not take risks to break the angle, nor did he use all his power, but hit a straight line steadily——
It is not the straight line of the court, but the straight line of the flight of the tennis ball, where it comes from and goes back to where it came from, flying straight back to the center of Djokovic's court.
Small steps, small steps, Djokovic adjusted his position in small steps continuously, waiting in place, deliberately opening the angle slightly with his backhand with both hands, but not completely tearing the angle away, controlling the flight of the tennis ball to Gao Wen's left
In the middle of the side half court, and slightly deeper into the baseline.
To ordinary spectators, this is just an ordinary transition ball. Neither Gao Wen nor Djokovic has opened the safety to start firing.
But for Gao Wen, he knew that Djokovic did it on purpose. The entire return was neither left nor right, neither deep nor shallow. It seemed to be a very neutral landing point. However, if Gao Wen's steps were a little lazy or
If it is slightly rougher, the return line will be restricted:
Slash is the only option.
Moreover, the entire batting rhythm is a little slow at present, and both players seem to be hitting transition balls. Naturally, there is inertial thinking in the batting action, and the most likely choice is the slash.
Gawain doesn't want this.
Chance!
This was the first reaction in Gawain's mind.
Small steps! Small steps! Small steps!
The hitting point was not far from the body, but Gawain was not lazy at all in adjusting his steps. Not only was he not lazy, but he was also very careful. A series of small steps played a melodious movement like ballet steps, and then he moved forward quietly,
Go a little further.
It's not a big step forward, but a subtle, small movement of position.
Because Djokovic's return lacked speed and power, this also gave Gao Wen enough time and space to conceal his tactical intentions. Then he adjusted his position and glanced at Djokovic on the other side of the court with his peripheral vision.
Kovic.
Djokovic was still wandering in the center of the court, unaware of Gawain's changes.
Kick the ground! Swing the racket! Turn! Use force!
Gao Wen's entire batting action is very determined. From the introduction of the racket to the contact with the ball, you can feel the determination bursting out from the inside out. At the moment when the racket hits the tennis ball, his wrist gently pushes out along the forearm.
, and the whole body also steps forward along with the hitting action.
Whoosh.
The entire hitting action is very clean and tidy, bursting out with a thunderous gesture, and the explosive feeling of instant power and instant closing spreads in the air.
The hitting effect is not that big, but you can instantly feel that the speed of the tennis ball has increased by a whole level.
Huh!
So sudden!
The breath of the entire audience was cut off in an instant, and then you could see that Gawain had finished hitting the ball, and suddenly the calm was broken by a sudden force change.
What about Djokovic?
Oops!
Djokovic started immediately, but his steps did move in the direction of his backhand, which was to guard against the diagonal.
However, I immediately realized that Gawain had changed his line, which completely broke the expectation of the sudden change of line.
ah!
Djokovic's steps suddenly stopped and turned, and he turned around and flew out on the spot, one big step, two big steps, but... everything was still too late.
Whoosh!
boom!
You can see Gawain's hitting, which is straight and fast. It doesn't seem to be fully exerted, but the hitting action is very full. The tennis ball turns into a light and shadow and directly escapes, moving lightly along the sideline of the court.
passing by, and then——
Fall! Land! Rebound!
within the bounds.
ah!
Many spectators in the Arthur Ashe Stadium could not suppress their exclamations. They looked at the landing spot of the tennis ball in amazement and shock, and could not believe their eyes:
What on earth just happened?
However, the referee's voice showed no mercy and directly announced the score, "deuce."
boom!
The five-star red flag surged in an instant, and the fans couldn't believe their eyes. They stood up collectively in an instant, but their minds were in chaos and they couldn't clarify their thoughts. They just shouted forgetfully, and their hearts were beating wildly.
Exploded.
what happened?
What exactly is going on?
"pretty!"
Zhan Jun clenched his fists without holding back, venting his emotions in this way, and then tried his best to keep his voice calm.
"Facing the count, Gao Wen's performance was really wonderful. He was calm and understated. He did not spend a lot of effort on these two points, but his timing and shot control were extremely precise."
“Both times, he broke Djokovic’s predictions and unexpectedly disrupted the batting rhythm of the two players. In the end, Gao Wen scored two winning points in a row and saved Djokovic’s two set points.
"
Gurgling.
Zhan Jun could hear his blood boiling.
At the same time, ESPN commentator Sofar's voice could not help but tremble slightly.
"At the critical moment, Gao Wen once again improved his condition, keenly caught Djokovic's slightly falling into inertial thinking, bravely and decisively broke the balance, and quickly scored two winning points in a row, killing the world No.
One by one, they were caught off guard."
"This is what Gawain is capable of."
"In any difficult situation, never underestimate Gawain's ability, because the hot fighting heart in his chest is always beating and burning."
From the NCAA to the professional arena to the Grand Slam semi-final stage, even when facing Djokovic, Gao Wen still showed his tenacity and tenacity. Everyone thought that the suspense of the third set was already certain.
But Gawain brought back the suspense with his unparalleled performance.
More importantly, Gawain scored these two winning points too lightly without taking any risks, which immediately made the game more interesting.
On the court, the performance of the two players is also worth pondering.
Djokovic was a little surprised and a little frustrated, but more importantly, he was dissatisfied. He had clearly got two points, but why did the power suddenly go off? Such a performance was completely devoid of any professional attitude. It was really terrible.
Gao Wen did not celebrate grandly, but clenched his fists heavily, then looked at Djokovic, and slowly backed away. His simple movements revealed a burning will, his eyes were bright, and finally he turned around and walked towards the bottom line, again
He clenched his fists again and encouraged himself.
The inventory appears, so what?
As long as this game and this set are not over, anything is possible. Football is round, and tennis is also round!
