Match point

Chapter 360 Intricate
Back and forth.Slowly.

Back and forth!Thunderbolt!

Kyrgios took the lead in hitting the ball hard, and then stood on the spot to get ready. He used his best stunt with both hands to backhand, relying on a small range of racquet to control his swing, and then relying on his muscular opponent Instant explosive power and soft batting touch package to complete the line change——

Backhand the straight line!

hate!
Fast and accurate, ruthless and spicy!
In an instant, the tennis ball kept its top speed and flew along the straight line on the right. This shot is very, very important in Kyrgios' arsenal, and it is often the weapon to break the deadlock when the backhand is in trouble.

but.

Tapping.

Tapping.

Gawain seemed to have anticipated Kyrgios' shot, moving laterally very quickly, and he had already gone from one end of the baseline to the other in a blink of an eye. His light and agile footsteps were not as easy as Kyrgios's, but he could still see the rest of his strength. Obviously The rhythm was not disrupted by Kyrgios' straight beat.

Bend your knees!Kick off!Quote!

Kyrgios had already seen Gawain's hitting action at the first time, and his footsteps reflexively moved quickly and laterally towards his forehand. He guessed that Gawain should hit the diagonal line with a strong forehand. corner, but Kyrgios is not afraid, he really has never been afraid of anyone in a forehand duel.

Ding Ding Deng!
wait wait wait……

what?
When Kyrgios was moving quickly laterally, he suddenly discovered that Gawain didn't hit the ball hard, but changed his grip again to cut a shot.

Small ball in front of the net.

It turned out to be a small ball in front of the net again!

This time, it really broke Kyrgios' prediction. The horizontal movement of his footsteps immediately turned into a diagonal vertical movement, and he sprinted with all his strength.

I can no longer see the appearance of leisurely walking in the courtyard.

After finally catching up to the net in a thrilling manner, he observed Gao Wen's position from the corner of his eye, and then saw Gao Wen standing in the midfield position like a wooden stake, as if he didn't know how to hit the ball for the next shot.

opportunity!

Although Kyrgios was a little embarrassed, his delicate touch was still very good. He rubbed everything forward with his forehand, and then cut the tennis ball back with a short ball.

and!

Over the higher sides of the net, Kyrgios hit a straight line!It's like rubbing the ball in front of the net in a badminton game!
heh!
There was a gasp in the Arthur Ashe Stadium, obviously not expecting Kyrgios to hit the ball so wildly.

The point is, it actually succeeded!

It should be difficult for Gao Wen...ah!wrong!Gao Wen appeared!
Tapping.

Tatata!
Gao Wen was obviously not a wooden stake, and the movement of standing in place was simply an illusion. In fact, his bent knees kept his center of gravity active.

Kyrgios' action of replaying the ball caught Gao Wen by surprise, but Gao Wen was well prepared and rushed forward immediately.

The tall and stalwart mobile footsteps arrived in a blink of an eye, and then the two sides switched positions. Now it is Kyrgios who must block the net.

Gawain stared at his backhand tennis ball. He had already held the racket with both hands, and secretly glanced at Kyrgios' backhand diagonally.

Immediately afterwards, Kyrgios can be seen quickly launching a lateral movement, rushing towards his left side.

Almost at the same time, Gao Wen's hands were already out of the racket, and he used the strength of his wrists to gently and delicately pull and push forward. The forward movement of the entire upper body was in place, and the force was fully pushed out to ensure the entire batting action. The ground is complete, and the softness and delicacy of wrist control are undoubtedly revealed.

Then you can see the tennis ball flying high out of the trajectory, then flying back in a straight line, jumping over the net like an elf, and gently landing in the gap of Kyrgios' forehand.

At this time, Kyrgios, whose center of gravity had moved laterally, was helpless after all, and could only watch the tennis ball fall into his court.

tread.Tread.Tread, tap, tap.

boom!
The court was boiling, and cheers burst out in an instant, sweeping the audience like a tsunami. There were whistles and screams, applause and roars. It seemed that after the first set was brewing, the audience finally ushered in this game first orgasm.

"Pretty!"

"The feel, control, and thinking of this ball are simply too beautiful!"

"With Kyrgios taking the initiative, Gawain showed unbelievable patience, both players were controlling the tempo, both players were calculating the opponent, the game slowed down and became more tense, and then Kyrgios Take the lead in speeding up, but don't want to fall into Gao Wen's trap."

"Pretty!"

"This is undoubtedly the most exciting round since today's opening! Gao Wen saved the break point with an unbelievable performance!"

In the studio, Zhan Jun could no longer control his emotions, and explained impassionedly——

This break point is really too important.

However, on the court, Gawain did not celebrate as usual.

However, Gao Wen stood up straight, glanced forward a little at where his return ball landed, showed a dissatisfied expression, and shook his head slightly.

That expression seemed to say, too bad, the quality of the ball in front of the net is not good, and I need to practice more when I go back.

Then, Gawain rubbed his nose, glanced at Kyrgios across the way, and showed a very hypocritical, polite, and nonsensical smile. Without saying anything, he turned around and walked towards the bottom line. .

Kyrgios: ...

Why did he feel as if he was being despised?
Looking at Gawain's unhurried back, Kyrgios just felt a burst of unknown fire rushing up to his chest: Pretending to be aggressive is not afraid of being struck by lightning!

Gao Wen did it on purpose.

To deal with the temper of a child like Kyrgios, roaring and roaring to show his momentum is actually not effective, because in Kyrgios' view, such behavior is really stupid, and he should be more chic and entertaining. Kyrgios, and will become a clown in the eyes of Kyrgios.

To deal with Kyrgios, it is necessary to "pretend", and he is better at pretending than Kyrgios, so that he feels threatened, and the balance of mentality may be broken.

It's like the charity exhibition game back then.

As for the tactical level, in fact, from the second half of the first set, Gao Wen had gradually adapted to Kyrgios' rhythm and impact.

Kyrgios is a player with a strong desire to perform. He is keen to be particularly relaxed, and also keen to break the deadlock to make the round more interesting. Therefore, he often changes the way of hitting the ball inexplicably. The combination of fast and slow shots has no effect at all. The rule is basically to hit wherever you think of it.

Therefore, simple calculations cannot control Kyrgios, and more changes are needed to make the round ball into chaos——

This is exactly what Gao Wen is good at. Don't forget that Gao Wen has always been a player who plays with his head.

If Kyrgios keeps his unreasonable hitting style throughout, then Gawain will actually be in trouble, because he has limited ways to break through the suppression of power. Unless Kyrgios himself fluctuates, Gawain will be very passive.

But apparently Kyrgios wasn't.

In the second half of the first set, Gao Wen never found a chance to break back. Kyrgios' serve was really good, but the second set was a new start.
