In the backhand position, Fei Lopez's one-handed backhand was powerful, and he swung the racket freely and stroked a straight line, stunning the entire audience.
Felipe's one-handed backhand is also powerful, but its instantaneous explosiveness is not as good as Wawrinka's and Federer's, so his attacks are more focused on diagonal lines. The diagonal line turns into a straight line, but he still lacks a little confidence in his shot.
But at this time, Fei-Lopez also went all out and started fighting with a more or less self-defeating mentality. The power exploded in the chest, and the release and violence poured out in an instant, suppressing and repressing.
All the emotions were vented, and there was a roar above the eardrums.
Gawain was caught off guard.
Kick, kick, kick!
Gawain was running at full speed. Because of his misjudgment, he had no advantage of moving ahead, which also meant that defense was more difficult. But fortunately, his center of gravity always remained light and his steps were always active. After returning the ball with the previous shot, he had already
Move slightly towards your left side to fill the position.
still have a chance.
All the speed is released, and the whole world is released like a midsummer rainstorm in a flash, and the acceleration continues to increase, moving sideways.
There was a violent sound above the eardrum, as if one could clearly feel the surge and surge of the footsteps hitting the ground, and the muscles were continuing to burn.
There was a flame burning in his chest, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the tennis ball.
Fei Lopez's gaze was fast, urgent and sudden, like a shooting star.
The only shortcoming is that the line is not completely straightened. Fei Lopez should be aiming to hit the ball in the dead corner of the baseline, but he still lacks a little confidence in his heart, so he takes a slightly conservative shot. Judging from the parabolic trajectory, the landing point should be far away from the baseline and the sideline.
There is still a lot of space, not a blind spot.
This is the window.
Run with all your might!
Gawain's speed has increased to the extreme. It seems that he will break away from the shackles of gravity and fly in the wind in the next second. Then he will trigger the backhand with both hands in advance and be ready to hit the ball.
Forward! Forward!
Center of gravity sinks!
Seeing that the tennis ball had rebounded and then fell rapidly, leaving little room for swinging and hitting the ball, Gawain did not waver at all, staring at the tennis ball intently, and at the same time, he quickly scanned the court with his peripheral vision——
Where is Fey Lopez?
Go online.
Sure enough, where else could Fey Lopez be? After hitting the ball in a straight line with a one-handed backhand, Fey Lopez immediately rushed forward to cover the frontcourt.
Gao Wen was already passive, but now Fey Lopez has come to the net to block the hitting line, further compressing the space left for Gao Wen to return the ball.
what to do?
Everything happened so fast, there was no time to hesitate, the steps were already in place.
One kick! One push!
Kick the ground hard with your left leg to complete the braking, control your body to avoid overrunning and missing the hitting point, and at the same time make full use of the inertia of the forward thrust to push the lateral force of the body vertically.
One turn! One carry!
Along with the push-up motion of the swing, all the power is sent forward along with the turning motion, and the power fully explodes in the midst of the turbulent waves.
"Strength vs Power"!
A bump! A throw!
Thick but thin, the soft wrist wraps the tennis ball and pushes it out. Just when the body's center of gravity is about to be completely unbalanced and thrown out, the speed of the racket head is completely increased, the swing speed of the forearm reaches the extreme, and then an eruption occurs deep in the Dantian.
A powerful roar.
ah!
"Fight vs fight"!
"Straight line VS straight line"!
In the extreme state, Gawain used a backhand with both hands to push out a straight line, flying along the changing line on the left side of the court, turning into a thin stream of light.
boom!
Felipe Lopez's steps had already reached the net. He realized the possibility of Gao Wen hitting a straight line, so although his steps moved towards his forehand position, he kept paying attention to his backhand position, and then immediately
Leap out and try to complete the block in a straight line.
However--
It was too slow. Fei Lopez's movements were still a little slower, and he watched helplessly as the tennis ball passed over his racket, formed a breakthrough and went out.
Tear.
It seems that you can hear the sound of successfully breaking the net, and then you can hear the cheers of the audience and the impassioned energy of Gawain released at the same time.
Ah! Ahhh!
Gawain jumped high, releasing his emotions heartily and easily igniting the entire stadium.
Felipe was a little helpless.
The score was evenly divided four times, and the battle lasted for ten minutes, and fourteen rounds were completed with the last ball. Finally, Gao Wen broke Fei Lopez's serve for the first time in the entire match.
The aftermath of the tie-break in the previous set deeply affected the start of the second set, and then Gawain seized the opportunity.
Although the win or loss is still undecided, there is no doubt that the trend of this game and this point is crucial to both players. It further changes the situation on the court. If Gao Wen can finally win, from the tiebreaker to the second set
This period at the beginning is definitely the core of turning the tide of the battle.
Felipe also realized the importance of this point and almost wanted to smash the racket again. His arms were already raised high, but in the end he held back.
Losing his first serve was like a wake-up call, waking up Fei Lopez——
No matter what, after all, he is a veteran who has been in the arena for many years. He has experienced hundreds of battles and has rich experience, so he will not collapse easily. He finally woke up from the strange circle of the tie-break in the first set and realized that he must concentrate, otherwise let alone a comeback.
It is very likely that you will be beaten directly in the second set.
Perhaps, this game could be the turning point that ruined the game; but equally, this game could also be the beginning of Fe-Lopez's counterattack.
In the next service game of Gao Wen, Fei Lopez regained his own level, and his clear mind meant that his hitting tactics became clear again, and the threat naturally increased greatly.
However, Gao Wen's concentration was not lost. After losing two points, he still successfully maintained his serve, successfully realized the advantage of breaking serve, and the initiative of the game entered Gao Wen's hands.
In the subsequent games, there were still some disturbances. Gao Wen got another break point, and Fei Lopez also forced a break point. However, both players performed better in their service games at critical moments and resolved the situation in time.
The crisis secured serve, and the score remained tight throughout. It was a stalemate all the way to the end.
In his own serve to win the game, Gauvin still encountered some difficulties. Fei Lopez launched the final attack and fought frequently. Gauvin wasted two match points and also saved a break point. In the end, he still
Successfully won the third match point.
Therefore, Gao Wen played another set with a score of "6:4", defeated Fei Lopez in straight sets, and advanced to the fourth round.
The whole match was very close. In the first set, Gawain won by two points, but in the second set, he only won by one point. Although the whole match only lasted 68 minutes, the content of the match was extremely rich, and Gawain won again.
Winning a hard-fought battle with red bayonets, especially during the stage of adjusting one's own condition, makes this victory even more meaningful.
The training value of the game is more important than victory.
