The quality of Djokovic's reflexive shot processing was actually very good, but the line and landing point returned to the routine again, and was accurately caught by Gawain.
So, the sheep enters the tiger's mouth!
"Mars VS Earth".
At this time, you can see that Gawain's steps are firmly in place, his feet are rooted, his energy is sinking in his Dantian, and he is facing the front with a backhand with both hands!
Crash!
The strength of the wrist and forearm both exploded, and the speed of the racquet head increased instantly, releasing a thunderous force that almost hit the tennis ball directly.
boom.
boom!
The tennis ball exploded directly, pulling out a long tail, and jumped straight out along the sideline on Gawain's left side, crossing the entire court in a mighty manner.
Buzz…
The shock and astonishment, surprise and amazement disappeared in the blink of an eye into a gasp of panic, and finally turned into a roar above the ears.
Djokovic still did not give up. He immediately started moving laterally and ran towards his forehand position with all his strength.
Dazzling!
Powerful!
Djokovic showed the style of being the best in the world. Such a dangerous and difficult shot was unexpectedly in place. His legs were split, showing unparalleled flexibility. He was almost close to the state of a horse, and then he was in the right position.
I patted my hand again, and surprisingly I was saved.
Iconic shot!
In an extremely passive and extremely crisis situation, he can still complete the package and send the tennis ball back to the opposite court. This is Djokovic's ability.
The center of gravity was shaky. Djokovic raised his head and watched the flight trajectory of the tennis ball. He struggled to prepare for the next shot. But when he raised his head, he immediately saw Gawain's figure dilated in his pupils——
Go online!
Gawain is online!
"trap!"
There was only one thought in Djokovic's mind. The small forehand shot just now was Gawain's trap. But Djokovic didn't know how Gawain managed to catch up with him even though he had the absolute initiative.
How about completing the trap layout?
The other side of the stadium.
Gawain was fully focused and unmoved, his steps forward were light and fast, and he implemented his tactics resolutely and resolutely.
If it were any other opponent, a straight backhand attack on the previous shot would basically be the winning point, but the player opposite was Djokovic, so this was not enough.
Therefore, you always need to prepare one more shot and calculate one more step.
The steps are already online.
really!
Djokovic once again brought the tennis ball back. If he had stood on the baseline, he would have been involved in a tug-of-war again, but Gao Wen broke the balance.
Tap tap tap!
Control your steps with continuous small steps, find the best hitting point, come to the net, turn your body sideways, and face the tennis ball with your forehand.
Critical hit?
No.
Everything gently.
Side spin.
The tennis ball, along a straight line, lightly crossed the net belt and landed at the front of the net. It seemed that it had finally released all its energy and no longer had the strength to bounce back. Just after it landed, it had already bounced for the second and third time, and then it bounced all the way.
Roll out.
From the corner of his vision, he could see that Djokovic had started again and was trying to get back on defense. Finally, his steps stopped in despair, as if he was lost.
An understatement!
Seal your throat at the sight of blood!
Score.
Break!
"Wow...this..."
"Wow!"
"Gawain breaks serve successfully again!"
"With a straight backhand attack, a small forehand shot in front of the net, perfect strategic layout, perfect tactical execution, Gao Wen showed an incredible big heart!"
“After serving to win the game and just encountering a break, Gao Wen immediately completed a counter-break and regained the lead in the deciding set…”
Gurgling.
Air is burning.
The cheers, screams, roars, and whistles in the audience were all intertwined and seemed to disappear, and finally turned into a billowing heat wave that ignited.
incredible!
Incredible!
After more than five hours and 20 minutes, the Australian Open final ushered in a new climax, pushing this battle of Mars and Earth to a whole new level.
Unbelievable!
Unparalleled!
My brain has exploded, and I can no longer think except cheering, shouting, and jumping. I look at each other in astonishment, then let myself go and join this carnival.
ah!
Ahhhh!
Sound waves, rolling.
Djokovic was out of breath, and an indescribable mixture of emotions surged up, a little frustrated, a little angry, a little annoyed, and a little depressed.
Then, he stood up straight and looked over, and at a glance he could see Gawain standing in front of the net——
Gawain did not celebrate.
There were no roars, no fist pumps, no cheers, no celebrations of any kind, just a slightly focused gaze, a deep look at the spot where the tennis ball landed, and then he withdrew his gaze, turned around and strode towards the players' rest area.
That's all.
However, his eyes are like a torch, but he releases a firmness and belief from the inside out:
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Not fighting for victory, but fighting for faith, dream, and hope. Fight until the last moment and burn out.
Djokovic was a little uneasy.
This ray of uneasiness disappeared in an instant, and then Djokovic became determined again, and he became full of pride and high morale.
In his heart, Djokovic is equally stubborn, tough and determined. If Gawain wants to see him collapse, then Gawain is doomed to be disappointed.
Turning around, Djokovic also took steps towards his players' rest area, and his disturbing thoughts settled down——
The game is not over yet.
In fact, Gao Wen had the same idea in his mind. He did not pay attention to Djokovic, but just focused on the game because the game was not over yet.
The lesson learned from the last serve to win the game has not had time to cool down, and he will not make the same mistake a second time.
He needs to be calm and focused, because he knows that the stronger Djokovic is, the stronger he gets. Even if he has a match point, he can never take it lightly.
In 2019, Wimbledon, the men's singles final, Djokovic faced Federer, the first four sets were evenly divided, and the winner had to be decided in the deciding set.
However, after the decisive set reached a stalemate of "6:6", the two sides entered a long set.
In the 15th game, Federer achieved a key break of serve, and in his own serve-winning game, he led "40:15" and got two consecutive match points.
Even the referee thought Federer would win the final championship.
but!
Djokovic saved two consecutive match points, broke Federer's serve to win the game, and continued the match. The two sides remained in a stalemate until "12:12", triggering a new rule that was just established at Wimbledon in 2019.
:
When the score in the final set reaches twelve draws, it will enter the tie-break of the final set.
The ending, tiebreaker, "7:3".
Djokovic becomes the champion.
It is precisely because of this that "40:15" became a taboo for Federer fans for a long time.
What does this prove?
Djokovic, like Nadal, will not give up even if he is hanging on the edge of the cliff with one arm. Everything is possible until the match point is realized.
What's more, this is Melbourne Park, the venue where Djokovic is best and most comfortable.
Don't take it lightly.
No, to be precise, it’s not that we can’t take it lightly, but that we must go all out.
Focus.
Invest.
Immerse.
Gawain's attention was focused like never before, and all his thoughts were focused on the game. What needed to be thought about in his mind now was not the championship, nor the serve to win the game, but a serve game.
Start with the serve, go step by step, and play steadily.
