The sky at Arthur Ashe Stadium is burning, and the lazy clouds are dancing in the wanton and gorgeous halo. The blue sky is dyed pink, and a touch of enchanting peacock blue can be vaguely seen.
There are ripples and ripples coming out, everything is quiet but magnificent.
The entire audience stared with bated breath.
Pah. Pah. Pah.
Gawain was shooting the ball, and hot sweat was slowly flowing down his face. The cool night wind blew gently by, and his skin couldn't help but tighten slightly. Subconsciously, Gawain quickly turned the racket, raised his head and looked at the other side of the court.
Cilic glanced at him, then lowered his head again and continued to shoot the ball.
Pah. Pah. Pah.
Highly focused.
Throwing the ball, the mustard yellow penetrates into the gorgeous sky and earth, like an oil painting.
Gawain's movements paused slightly, then he pushed on the ground, bent his knees, turned, waved his arms, and hit the ball. The entire serving movement was done smoothly and in one go.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball flies out like this:
Get close and press the backhand.
At the last moment, Gao Wen trusted his baseline hitting ability more than risking a chance to serve, so he chose to serve from close range.
Cilic accurately predicted Gawain's intention to serve, and stepped out of the way in advance to make room for the swing. However, what Cilic did not expect was that Gawain would hide side spin in the serve, and the tennis ball would still go to the right after it landed.
Further compressing Cilic’s swing space——
It would have been more appropriate if Cilic hit the ball sideways with his forehand, but Cilic predicted it in advance and moved in advance, and instead fell into a trap.
"Calculation vs Prejudgment", Gao Wensheng.
Cilic had no time to regret and reluctantly turned his body sideways. His hands were stuck on his side for backhand, unable to stretch out. As a result, he barely managed to hit the backhand. Then his body weight fell backwards in a hurry, controlling his body with continuous small steps, and his eyes were anxious.
The ground flies with the tennis ball.
How about returning the ball!
Pressing the backhand from the middle——
The line is good.
Good placement.
Although his strength and speed were average, Cilic's conditioned reflex performance in the desperate situation was very good, and he actually pressed the tennis ball very deep, almost landing on the baseline.
Huh!
The audience at the scene let out exclamations. Due to the angle of the court, many spectators could not see clearly where the ball landed. Seeing Cilic's ball hitting so deep, they thought the ball was out of bounds.
Then he marveled at the placement of Cilic's shot and let out a low cry uncontrollably.
But the shouts were immediately cut off, and the court fell into a state of breathless stare again, staring intently at the flying tennis ball.
Gawain was squeezed.
He really didn't expect Cilic's landing point to be so hard, and it was basically right at his feet. If he chose to bounce the ball, there would definitely be no problem hitting the ball over the net, but there would be no problem with the second shot after serving.
Already.
Tread.
Gao Wen's first reaction was to start to retreat. He took two small steps back and forced his body out of the way. At the same time, his forehand hit forward in the opposite direction.
state!
During a forehand attack while retreating, Gao Wen relied entirely on the strength of his forearm and wrist to hit the tennis ball in a straight line, flying straight towards the other side of the court.
Although the force is not strong, you can hear it from the sound of hitting the ball; Gao Wen very smartly chooses to hit the ball with his skateboard. The entire rotation has a forward momentum, relying on the power of the wrist swing to increase the sliding force.
impact.
Huh!
The Arthur Ashe Stadium once again erupted with low exclamations, because Gawain's hit was also very hard, hitting the baseline on Cilic's side accurately.
It's another line-pressure ball, like a wild dance on a tightrope.
But as soon as the exclamation came out, it was immediately cut off and people stared with bated breath.
Cilic rushed over immediately, but he immediately realized the hidden edge of Gawain's skateboard hitting. The powerful momentum mixed with the stormy waves came towards him; he did not hesitate at all, and struck out with his forehand like a heavy cannon, with a
Hitting the Ascendant in a very awkward and weird posture——
Unintentional.
Cilic is not good at grabbing the ball, but because Gao Wen's return ball was too deep and he couldn't lose his defensive position, he could only bite the bullet and grab the ball.
ah!
Ahhh!
Cilic exerted force, and a roar erupted from the depths of his Dantian. With awkward movements, he completed a very uncomfortable hit. The only thing he could do was to use his strength to forcefully explode, and "one force can defeat ten wills."
The way to complete this unconventional shot to grab the rising point.
but!
Rush out! Use your strength!
boom!
The tennis ball exploded with incredible force along the diagonal line, once again showing the power of Cilic's forehand, majestically across the entire court, cutting through the sunset sky like a sharp sword.
Huh!
You can clearly hear the exclamations at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, and more than just exclamations, the waves of surprise and fright broke the tranquility of the scene, because the audience thought that Cilic was determined to win this forehand, and the violent forehand
The attack actually landed on a diagonal blind spot!
pretty!
Will Cilic also want to copy Gawain's feat of continuously saving match points?
However, this still requires Gawain's consent.
Kick, kick, kick!
Kick, kick, kick!
Gawain sprinted at full speed, stepping on the Hot Wheels with both feet to increase his speed to the extreme, and merged with the strong wind completely.
Run! Run! Run fast!
The roaring air waves in the audience beat on the eardrums, and Gawain seemed to hear the sound of his own blood boiling.
Got it!
Not only did he catch up! But Gawain was also able to complete the counterattack in time!
Brake! Kick off the ground! Swing the bat! Hit the ball!
The forehand shot released all its power at this moment, and it was as if you could see the vastness of the storm surging across the court. Then the tennis ball was hit hard back, running diagonally across the court, and landed in front of Cilic again.
Hands, however—
Got guessed.
Damn it.
Gawain made immediate adjustments to his steps, and the second start of the sudden stop and turn pushed his body in the opposite direction in an instant, and then he stared at Cilic intently.
In his sight, Cilic's eyes burst out with a sharp look. He triggered the shot with his forehand early, waited on the spot early, and directly caught Gawain's return ball. He struck directly with a very firm and decisive hand. He struck directly with the strength of his forehand.
Change the line!
straight line!
Cilic's entire body turned fully, and all the power of the forehand whip was concentrated on the tennis ball, and he hit hard!
boom!
The tennis ball bombed over like a fireball, flying straight along the sideline and exploding like an angry bird.
Huh!
Arthur Ashe Stadium erupted with exclamations for the third time. I couldn't believe my eyes. In this round, almost every hit was challenging the limit of my nerves. Coupled with the match point bonus, it was an ups and downs.
The tension and excitement completely break the constraints, and every hit is heart-breaking.
There were even Croatian fans who couldn't restrain their excitement and stood up directly, with their clenched hands on their shoulders, ready to celebrate the score. The bustling noise made the restlessness and heat wave in the entire stadium more turbulent and public, and it seemed that it might explode at any time.
Buzzing.
Buzzing.
but!
Gawain, is still running; Gawain, is still fighting; Gawain, is still burning... The dark blue figures running wildly at both ends of the bottom line turned into a strong wind, whizzing past in an instant.
The exclamations and astonishment of the audience were all suppressed, and then——
