Match point

Chapter 1878
According to technical statistics, after a player breaks serve, he or she is more likely to suffer a break in the next service game.

there are many reasons.

First, after the player completes the break, the energy and physical strength are obviously consumed, the mind is slightly relaxed, and the concentration may fluctuate.

Secondly, after the opponent encounters a break, he immediately launches a counterattack in the next game, quickly improves his condition, and instantly bursts out with more ferocious energy.

In this way, the next game after a break often becomes the focus of competition.

Especially the Big Four games.

The so-called Big Four are not indestructible. Their service games will also encounter crises, but their handling and response after the crisis occurs is their real strength. Their ability to break serve immediately after encountering a break is very important in the tour. It deserves to be in the first echelon.

Naturally, the Big Four are also aware that they may be hit in the next service game after breaking serve, so they will be more alert. Such games and pulls frequently appear in the confrontations between the Big Four, and the intensity is often high. Just go up a level.

At this time, it is the so-called critical game——

Gawain also has this ability.

In the last game, Federer was full of firepower on the offensive end and broke serve with an absolutely strong and outstanding performance.

In this game, Gao Wen did not give up an inch and launched a counterattack on the spot. The first shot was different from the moment he received the serve.

"0:15".

Second district, one shot.

The tennis ball entered Gawain's chest.

Although the speed was only 180 kilometers per hour, even slower than the previous serve, Federer had obviously calculated and planned this serve.

Federer chose to chase and serve, aiming at Gawain's position, slightly leaning towards his forehand. At the same time, he landed with a strong side spin and drilled towards Gawain.

With placement, spin, and line, Federer showed off his talent on the serving end with a very clear goal, which was to try to squeeze Gawain's forehand.

Gawain, without a doubt, fell into passivity.

As soon as he stood on tiptoe, his flexible and light center of gravity was already pulled towards the left. He barely gave up a step, but the rotation arc after the tennis ball landed immediately made Gawain realize that the position was still not enough, so he simply did it with his upper body. He made a movement of leaning back and lowering his waist to open up space.

The right hand cannot be stretched at all, and the arm and elbow are connected to the body, which also means that it is impossible to swing the racket completely.

however.

Gawain was not nervous at all, let alone panic. He reacted reflexively. He simply pressed his right hand tightly against his torso, turned around in a small arc, and used the turning movement to drive his right hand to swing——

Keep your forearms straight and your wrists soft.

Every loss must have a gain. Since Federer chose to chase and spin, he must sacrifice strength and speed. These shortcomings will become Gawain's gaps.

--coming!
The tennis ball hits the racket surface and continues to rotate, and you can clearly feel the vibration of the racket string.

One tip, one turn, one flip.

Gawain's entire hitting movement was done in one go. He did not force himself to exert force, but followed the inertia and used the flexibility of his body to sort out the power. The rotation of the tennis ball also became the context used by Gawain. Just when the tennis ball was about to break away from the racket, When controlling by wire, the speed of your wrist increases.

One area, one roll.

Before he even had time to lower his eyelids once he blinked, the tennis ball had already been pushed out by the reaction force.

straight line.

In an extremely passive, embarrassing and extremely difficult situation, Gawain took advantage of his strength and completely relied on his skill to change the flight trajectory of the tennis ball. At this time, you can see Gawain's talent in feel and layout, and his instant reaction between lightning and flint was astonishing. Be able to make a choice that is best for you.

The flying speed of the tennis ball is not very fast, it is swaying, spinning, light and floating, as if a strong wind can blow the tennis ball away.

but!

When Gao Wen lost his position and was completely squeezed, he hit a straight shot, which completely broke Federer's prediction.

Federer is even more embarrassed.

After the serving action, he was almost certain that Gao Wen's return ball would enter the middle or backhand position. His footsteps were quickly adjusting, and it could be seen from his posture that he was preparing to turn sideways for a forehand.

Among the Big Four, Federer's sideways forehand attack power is second only to Nadal, and the frequency of use is almost the same as Nadal. This is his heavy weapon.

You can tell at a glance that Federer is determined to win.

However, Gao Wen's unexpected return disrupted the layout. Although the quality of the return was not excellent, it reversed the confrontation through the route and placement.Federer's steps were a bit messy. He stopped and then started again. When he waited for his steps to catch up, the hitting point was already very far back.

Federer had to rush out, unable to keep up with his steps, so he extended his upper body and quickly whipped his forehand to force a beat, but his control of the line and landing point was not very precise.

slash.

Strafing.

Federer hopes that the combination of the line and speed of his forehand shot can contain Gawain and buy him time to adjust his steps.

He kicked off his right leg and braked suddenly, barely controlling his center of gravity and preventing the centrifugal force from pulling him forward.

One looked back at the moon.

Federer saw a black figure on the opposite side of the court rushing to the diagonal position. His forehand was fully extended, and he quickly shot from a high point like a roc spreading its wings. He grabbed the moment before the highest point of the tennis ball was about to fall, and he shot it neatly.

boom.

straight line.

deep area.

There is absolutely no sloppiness in the movement of the knife from hand to hand, and there is no need to fully exert force or take the risk of aiming at a blind corner, just pursue a line.

Land, open, score.

"0:30".

Whoa!
Arthur Ashe Stadium was boiling——

This is the iconic Federer style of play, which uses the connection of shots, rhythm changes and line layout to increase the rhythm. The collision of one shot does not require the force of the shot, but it can create an airtight sense of oppression, and finally create a Opportunity, the entire offense is done in one go, it is definitely a pleasure.

Now, it appears on Gawain and is used against Federer.

That feeling, that taste, set off a storm in my mind.

The mercury-laden attack completely broke Federer's tactical layout, reversed the situation in a difficult and passive situation, and then scored the first two points in this game.

"Wow."

McEnroe couldn't help but sigh in admiration, then thought about it carefully and tried it again.

"Wow."

"A shot like this, a round like this, do you need any words?"

"Wonderful!"

Federer had just broken Gawain's serve, and before he had time to breathe, he was facing a crisis in his own serve.

Did Federer play poorly?
No, it was Gawain who also improved his condition.

As time goes by, the intensity of the entire competition rises to a higher level.

But will Federer just surrender?
of course not.

-ACE!

At the critical moment, Federer's serve changed again, and he saved the match with a 210 kilometers per hour serve, which directly cut off all Gawain's counterattacks.

"15:30".

Federer also secretly clenched his fists to cheer himself up. Now that both of them are improving, the next game will enter a whole new level.

Federer stood firm, but Gao Wen was not affected. He seized a second serve opportunity from Federer, attacked continuously with his forehand, and finally used his backhand to break Federer's defense in a straight line, regaining the initiative and scoring another point.

Then, the break point appeared.

"15:40".

Moreover, it is still two in a row.

This is the response from Gawain.
