The rhythm of Gawain's lateral movement was broken, and the alarm bells sounded.
Although the speed of Murray's return ball has slowed down, it does not mean that Gao Wen has taken advantage, because the route, arc and landing point of the return ball have all been changed.
Originally, the tennis ball should have landed near the coordinates of two steps from the sideline and one step from the bottom line, but now, the landing point has evolved into the coordinates of one palm from the sideline and half a step from the bottom line, unexpectedly close to the blind spot.
This also means that the hitting point calculated by Gawain in advance has shifted.
tread.
One step at a time.
Tread.
The steps that were already in place had to take another big step forward. The hitting point not only moved outwards but also upwards, so that the swing trajectory also had to be adjusted accordingly.
The originally planned offensive was forced to shelve.
When the steps were not in place, he stretched out his upper body to reach the ball, and used his forearm to drive the forehand to sweep the shot.
boom!
The shot was completed, but it was not at all what Gawain expected.
The mesh belt helped Murray a little bit at this moment.
Gao Wen's shot was aimed at Murray's position and hit him. Even in a passive situation, Gao Wen still did not forget to dig a hole for Murray:
The ball at the foot.
Gao Wen knew Murray's mobile coverage ability, so he deliberately did not open the angle and smashed towards Murray's feet. This was already the best choice in a passive situation.
Murray made a series of small steps to get out of position, and flicked his forehand on the sole of his foot. The delicate control of his wrist was clearly demonstrated in the processing of this shot.
Backslash, press backhand.
Here it comes again, at the critical moment, Murray boldly distributes the ball to Gawain's backhand.
Deng Deng Deng.
However, he saw that Gawain moved sideways at lightning speed, increasing his speed to the extreme as much as possible, and then using the centrifugal force of his body to sprint outwards, he made a backhand with both hands:
Total Annihilation!
"ah!"
Along with the powerful movement, the roar deep in the Dantian also exploded. The weight of the body and the explosion of muscles released all the power. A shot that penetrated the entire court, causing the mustard-yellow tennis ball to hit Murray's
The left field flew away.
Turn defense into offense!
From Gowan to Murray, and then from Murray to Gowan, both sides are always looking for offensive opportunities in defense and never give up in extremely difficult situations.
One shot of the ball can turn the situation around.
Huh!
Before the audience could even shout out their exclamations, they were surprised that Gawain gave it a try again, but then they were stunned and grabbed their throats again, so that all the sounds disappeared, and they stared at the stadium in stunned silence——
Murray, online.
Very sudden, without warning, breaking the routine.
Gawain, who was extremely passive and tried to reverse the situation, did not anticipate Murray's move to the net, because judging from any signs, there was no clue that Murray was preparing to enter the court to put pressure.
But unfortunately, Murray went online.
Just when Gao Wen was about to take action, he also noticed Murray's net action from the corner of his sight, but at this time it was too late to change the hitting method and route. He had no time to hesitate and hesitated, and could only change the strength of his wrist.
, add rotation——
Falling sharply across the net.
To put it simply, it is backspin, but the technical details are different because the trajectory of the entire parabola needs to be adjusted:
According to the original trajectory, the tennis ball would continue to climb for a short period after flying over the net, and then start to fall; but now, the tennis ball fell immediately as soon as it flew over the net, and it fell rapidly.
This is a very common and very effective hitting technique in the face of pressure from the opponent on the net, because this will cause the opponent to complete the hit below the horizontal line of the net, but it is too close to the net and does not allow the return parabola to remain.
There is enough space to rise, so it is very easy to hit the net and form a net.
However, this technology is extremely difficult and requires very strict wrist control and feeling.
Without being able to change his batting line or swing, Gawain could only break Murray's surprise attack by falling sharply over the net.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball flies quickly.
Tread!
Murray runs at full speed!
Kick!
Gawain's body was strongly pulled outward by the centrifugal force, but his left leg kicked hard to the ground and he barely managed to control his body amidst the shaking of the mountain. He didn't have time to adjust his center of gravity and balance, and his footsteps quickly followed the diagonal line.
Enter the court and prepare to defend Murray's next return shot.
Even if you can't defend, you still need to create visual interference.
Kick on the ground, move forward, and fly.
Then--
You can see that Murray is holding the shot with one hand on his backhand position. He gives up the control of the backhand with both hands. Instead, he makes full use of the flexibility of the one-handed shot. He finds a rebound position at his feet and blocks the shot with the racket.
, with a flexible and soft turn of the wrist, the tennis ball spins quickly.
Release force and fight back.
Control, rotate.
So flexible and graceful, like a dancing ballerina.
Whoosh.
The mustard-yellow light and shadow climbed up lightly, away from the ground, flew high, crossed the net, and landed again on the court on the Gowan side.
Gawain is sprinting, but it's too late——
ah!
Ahhhh!
The entire audience stood up collectively, raised their arms and shouted.
The rebound ball at Murray's feet was so exquisitely and meticulously controlled that it crossed the net, almost touching the net, and landed in Gowan's court. It was light and short, perfect.
Gawain was still sprinting and running wildly, but the distance of half the stadium was like the Pacific Ocean, unable to cross.
That's too late.
After all, it was too late.
From offense to defense, from defense to offense, the strong collision of offense and defense transition progressed to the end, but it was Murray who ended the battle for this point with an incredible and wonderful handling in front of the net. His unparalleled performance detonated the audience.
.
On his first match point, Murray showed his style as a master tactician. He broke the balance with a sudden shot to the net in the last shot, and flawlessly handled Gawain's sudden fall through the net, successfully completing a mini-break and winning consecutively.
Win the second tiebreaker, defeat your opponent, and become the champion.
Wonderful!
It’s really wonderful!
The entire center court exploded, and all the spectators within sight stood up and applauded. Cheers, screams, and roars mingled together violently, like a volcano erupting.
Not just for Murray, but more for this incredible matchup. This tense and suffocating confrontation, the suspense of victory or defeat lasted until the last moment.
Applause is for Murray, but also for Gawain.
Murray raised his hands high, roared, roared, pulled his fans hard, bent down, and roared with all his strength.
This game was really, really hard. He had been pushed to the extreme and was even a little nervous. When the game finally ended, he felt a little exhausted. He needed a little catharsis.
So, Murray roared without reservation, his internal organs were aching, and then he took a long breath, his knees were weak and trembling, as if his body had been hollowed out, and happiness and joy slowly surged.
