Match point

Fall back, smash——

The tennis ball struck head-on like a mighty storm, and the roaring air waves tried to swallow up all obstacles in front of them.

heh!
Ah!
The Arthur Ashe Stadium was in a commotion, and a tough and tough momentum filled the entire stadium. More than half of the audience was already convinced that there was no suspense about the score.

Excited.Excited.Jumping for joy.

Vaguely, you can see the gophers scattered in the corners of the scene, ready to stand up and raise their arms and shout to celebrate the score. Some people even couldn't bear it and stood up directly. The rising and falling restlessness was like a flame. Continuing to add firepower to the heatwave on site.

Strong winds, hunting, and the world was swept into a turbulent mass.

then.

Gawain appeared.

To be precise, Gawain's steps were on the forehand position and did not completely leave. Federer's overhead pressure still chose the diagonal line to press the forehand.

then.

There is no avoiding it.There was no holding back.No hesitation.

Gawain faced him head-on.

Kick your right leg, step on the ground, brake suddenly, support your body, layers of power wrap around your calf and jump up all the way, your body can't help but tremble slightly, just like a Super Saiyan transformation, the surging energy is all condensed together. , and waiting for a moment of instant release.

Focus your eyes, look straight ahead, and keep an eye on the tennis ball.

coming.

A whirlwind.

This is completely different from the usual hitting. It is more difficult but also stricter to grasp the hitting point, and there cannot be any deviation in concentration.

Be determined and attack.

There is nothing fancy, the simplest, most basic and basic forehand. The speed of the racket head is fully accelerated, and the forehand has already hit the front.

boom!
The sound of a solid and crisp hit exploded instantly.

Tennis has completely disappeared.

- Hold your breath.

One second ago, those eyes followed Federer's high-pressure ball across the court and looked towards the end of the world, waiting for the moment when it landed and blossomed.

The next second, he was pulled over the net by the counterattack of the tennis ball, but when he turned his head, he lost the trajectory of the tennis ball and fell into shock.

"Power VS Strength".

Gawain not only did not back down, but also stood firm.

The tennis ball, which was compressed to the extreme, almost disappeared and flew all the way along the sideline, creating a straight path and reaching the other side of the court.

It wasn't until the moment he landed that his eyes caught the mustard-yellow bloom again.

within bounds.

straight line.

dead end.

period.

A series of stunned faces and a pair of dull eyes looked slowly and stiffly at the half court where the tennis ball landed——

Federer started his body reflexively, but after taking two or three steps, he realized that he had lost his position before he could get it.

So, I stopped and watched the tennis ball get into the corner of the bottom line, unable to recover.

This point belongs to Gao Wen.

Federer lowered his head to adjust his breathing, and the expression on his face hidden in the shadows was unclear.

But the sanity in Arthur Ashe Stadium has completely turned into mush.

"Take the lead, high."

The referee's voice announcing the score broke the tranquility of the scene. In the next second, you can hear the buzzing sound from zero to [-] and then further broke into a storm. Sighs and surprises, sighs and roars were all intertwined, just like a storm passing by. , a bunch of noise surged in the eardrums.

In sharp contrast, both players were extremely calm on the court.

Not only Federer, but also Gao Wen did not cheer and celebrate. After confirming the score, he silently walked to the bottom line, adjusted his mind, and continued to prepare for the next point.

Because Gao Wen knew that the crisis was still not over. Unless the game point was fulfilled and the serve was guaranteed, Federer might still launch a counterattack at any time.

He needs to focus.Take a deep breath, exhale long, and then Gawain is ready for the next point.

Second District.

Gawain raised his head and glanced at Federer. There was no sound in the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium——

Obviously, they don't want to anger Gawain anymore, otherwise the four points just now are the best response.

One shot.

point T.

The placement was precise, and Gawain chose to take a risk on the game point.

Although the serve speed is only 176 kilometers per hour, the serve hits the T point accurately, making full use of the space in the service area.

Federer is a bit embarrassed.

Flying, extending, forehand push block.

Federer tried his best to control his body and wrists, gritted his teeth, and seized on the shortcomings of slow serve in an attempt to improve the quality of his return.

However, the excellent serve quality still firmly restricted Federer's space to play, and he barely pushed a beat with his forehand.

straight line.Middle road.deep zone.

Federer pushed the return ball as deep as possible and used the center placement to limit Gauvin's line of attack in the second shot.

Gawain was mentally prepared for this.

The right leg is pulled back to get out of the way and open up space, but the forehand is actively forwarded. This is also the serve-receiving strategy adopted by Federer several times tonight. Now it is used by Gawain, but it has different characteristics.

Take the initiative to move forward with your forehand, and use the strength of your wrist to throw it quickly to create instant power.

Although the angle is not completely torn apart, the tail force of speed and power is thicker, forming suppression with the mass of the ball.

Backslash.

backhand.

With different strength trajectories in the upper and lower body, Gao Wen also hit a difficult technical shot, pushing the tennis ball towards Federer's backhand position.

Federer's footsteps moved violently. He first went to receive the serve with his forehand, extending his body to the extreme; then he suddenly stopped and turned and rushed to the backhand position to meet the impact.

Although Federer had been mentally prepared and predicted that Gawain might choose this route, the bumps in his movements were still unavoidable.

The moment the backhand came forward, he immediately felt the strong collision of the tail force of the ball. Federer tried to open his chest and use strength to suppress and launch a counterattack, but his swing speed was obviously hindered, so that the speed of the racket head did not pick up. After pushing the ball back, The effect is far lower than expected.

Oops!

Federer immediately sounded the alarm, paused, and rushed towards the completely cleared forehand gap. In name, he was trying to cover the forehand position, but in fact the entire court had been cleared, and Gawain only needed to push the tennis ball. If he blocks it back, Federer will fall into a passive situation of saving the ball.

Tread.

Tread.

Federer was sprinting at high speed, but in his sight, he could see Gawain playing steadily and calmly, getting stuck in the backhand position, and striking out with a strong backhand with both hands.

He didn't wait for Federer to start at all. It can be seen from his swing that Gao Wen was grabbing the rising point and seemed to be preparing to hit a straight line. This also made Federer's move more determined, but he had not yet taken a step. Wen already compressed the rhythm and took action without hesitation.

Kick off the ground, turn around, shoot, start——

straight line?

No, slashes.

Look back.

Repeat drop.

Strong enough, neat enough, straightforward enough, with the sword in hand and down, what matters is the timing and rhythm.

The tennis ball just slipped into the gap behind Federer and disappeared before he could even blink.

The score belongs to Gawain.

From the desperate situation of falling behind "0:40" to scoring five consecutive points to turn the situation around and secure serve, the ever-changing nature of tennis once again demonstrated the charm of competitive sports in another form.

Everyone in the audience felt a roar in their minds.

"5:4", Gao Wen continued to maintain the lead and put all the pressure on Federer.
