He was breathing heavily, and the hot air surged in his chest like lava. He was sweating profusely, and looked like he had just been fished out of the water.
However, Gawain's eyes were bright, his smile was blooming, he clenched his right fist, and his whole body exuded a kind of joy, tenacity and determination, shining with infinite light:
That’s it!
Against any player from the Big Four, their golf intelligence is unquestionable, so if you want to plot against them, you must be more careful.
From the beginning of the third set, Gawain was laying out the plan, taking steps step by step. In fact, his physical limit had basically passed and there was no problem with his physical condition. However, he realized Murray's eagerness and calculation, so he adapted to the situation and cooperated with the performance. Murray was
Layout, he is also laying out:
Calculate while testing, disrupt Murray's deployment while predicting Murray's reaction, and watch while walking.
Then, seize the opportunity and launch a thunderous strike.
Of course, Gao Wen himself also needs to take risks, and Murray did indeed create opportunities, so that Gao Wen was in danger in his own serve. It was like dancing on the tip of a knife. If you don't pay attention, the situation may be another.
In this way, the positions of the two players will be reversed at this time.
but!
That’s it.
Gawain finally figured it out, suddenly and as fast as lightning, he seized the opportunity and finally realized his advantage, and then took the lead in the third set.
A sense of satisfaction filled my chest.
It is precisely because of the difficulties, precisely because of the challenges, precisely because of the dangers, and precisely because both parties have been pushed to the extreme that the pleasure and release are even more heartfelt.
Gao Wen did not scream or vent, he was simply happy, just like when he played against Nadal. Facing the tension and excitement of a top player, he completely detonated adrenaline, and then challenged his limits step by step.
, every minute and every second I stand on the court is burning.
He likes this feeling.
After many, many shots, Gao Wen realized that he had fallen to the ground, and his posture was touching. No wonder everyone in the player box stood up——
They are all worried about Gawain getting hurt.
Gawain stood up on his hands and knees, jumped twice slightly on the spot, indicating that he was fine, and then looked at Murray who was venting his anger wantonly:
His whole body was burning, like a Super Saiyan.
Not only did Gawain not shrink back, but he became even more excited.
Because Gawain is convinced that Murray will definitely launch a counterattack, and Murray will never surrender, which also means that the next game will be exciting.
Perfect!
Now, Gawain has fully opened up, his body and spirit are at a high point, and he is ready to continue fighting and continue to challenge the limit.
not to mention--
The cheers and cheers at Rod Laver Arena gathered together again after a brief period of shock and astonishment.
The break came so suddenly and unexpectedly that the audience did not have time to react. They were caught off guard and the situation suddenly changed.
Then, there was a ringing in the ears, and I didn't realize it. How could the situation in the third set be reversed?
After reacting, he realized that the next step was Gao Wen's service game to win the third set.
no.
Absolutely not!
As a result, the roars and shouts burst out with energy again, even with a hint of pain and despair, and the hoarse shouts of support were filled with endless sincerity.
So, how can someone as kind as Gawain fail to fulfill the "expectations" of local fans?
After five games of entanglement and confrontation, Gao Wen and the home fans have developed some friendship and reached a subtle and weird tacit understanding.
He just wants to continue to see the tangled expressions of the home fans who "are filled with hatred but come back to Rod Laver Arena to watch the game again and again."
A bad taste.
Therefore, Gawain is definitely full of motivation.
"5:3".
There is no time for rest and adjustment, and then Gao Wen will usher in his own serve to win the set, which is a test for both Gao Wen and Murray's mental toughness.
"15:0", ACE, Gao Wen issued the eighth ACE of this game, kicking off the service-winning game.
"30:0", Murray took the second serve and hit the net, giving Gawain a serve to score directly. Murray was very dissatisfied with this and dropped the racket directly.
Mistakes are not just simple mistakes.
If Murray were to receive this kind of second serve in a practice match, he would have no problem receiving a hundred or a hundred; but this is not the case in a match.
State, mentality, and atmosphere are all influencing factors.
Obviously, Murray was still affected by the fact that he was broken without any struggle or resistance in the previous game. This game was a little impatient, so he wanted to increase his attack power in the return of serve. But the more he thought about it, the easier it was to make mistakes.
What's more, Murray's physical strength could no longer be suppressed and was slowly revealed.
a district.
One shot, inner corner.
At this time, it was obvious that Gao Wen was very excited, and the state and quality of his first serve had improved. The serve with a speed of 195 kilometers per hour, the quality of the ball and the landing point were very good.
Murray's backhand was squeezed, his swing was not complete, and the return line was slightly shorter.
Gawain, his footsteps immediately entered the bottom line.
With a forehand thrust, aim at the blind corner of the big triangle of Murray's forehand baseline and launch an attack.
Murray's steps are in place, but his position is a bit crowded——
At this time, Murray's position is no longer about two meters behind the baseline, but right on the baseline, so the physical space for hitting the ball is naturally compressed.
Murray hit a rebound ball and failed to completely control the parabola with his forehand attack, but he still tried to push the landing point of the return ball into the deep area.
Squeeze Gawain.
Gawain's position was indeed squeezed.
I saw that Gao Wen made continuous adjustments in small steps, moved laterally, abruptly gave up the swing space, then jumped on the spot and hit the ball in the air.
Forehand, swing your arm quickly, completely increase the speed of the racket head at the moment of release, hit the ball with a skateboard, and launch an attack along the reverse slash direction——
The long sword is unsheathed!
Whoosh!
The tennis ball has disappeared.
Huh!
A gasp could be clearly heard at the scene. When the tennis ball appeared again, it was accurately pressed on the sideline. It was suspected of being out of bounds, but the linesman made a very firm gesture of inbounds.
At the same time, Murray had also arrived. Facing two consecutive strong forehand attacks by Gao Wen, he once again showed his top defensive level.
The two-handed backhand, without losing its center of gravity, actually produced a straight line, which was smooth and fast; most importantly, the landing point was very particular:
Aim to strike under the soles of Gawain's parallel stance.
As a result, even if Gao Wen moves laterally to intercept the ball, he cannot volley or hit the ball from the baseline. Instead, he hits the rebound ball very awkwardly. There is no room for adjustment and swing at all, and the difficulty of handling increases sharply. This will also create a problem for the player.
Murray's next shot of defense and even counterattack completed the preparation.
Gawain foresaw Murray's tactical intentions in advance and was aware of the dilemma before his steps were in place.
However, Gawain was not seen panicking at all.
He took a big step, increased his speed by leaps and bounds, took a step forward, and started to fly in an attitude that was almost like a fish leaping to the top.
It is exactly this step, before the tennis ball hits the ground, before the tennis ball falls, keep the racket and the net in a parallel position, and chop everything with your forehand.
twist.
The racket was rubbed lightly, and then the tennis ball flew over like a feather.
small ball!
Gawain rolled out a small ball.
Murray ran at full speed, but... after all, he still couldn't catch up.
Because Gao Wen's handling of the ball was too delicate, precise and in place, and the force was released perfectly, he quickly formed two jumps after landing, leaving no space for Murray at all.
Da, da da da da da... the tennis ball is rolling all the way.
