Match point

Chapter 374 Sliding into the Abyss
brake!Kick off!
Jump in place!

Lean back and block!

push down!work hard!
Overhead high pressure!

Thunderous!

The tennis ball was smashed into the open space of Kyrgios' entire stadium, like sparks hitting the earth, and then flew high, just like that, towards the audience stands. Even Kyrgios jumped up, but the tennis ball still Easily over the top, instantly let the audience raise their arms and shout!

The sound is rolling!

"what!"

"Ahhh!"

Gao Wen's emotions were also released along with the trend, his resolute eyes shone with unwavering light, and he rolled forward mightily towards the opposite side of the court.

From ridicule to disdain, from demonstration to release, Gawain's celebration is always just right, adding fuel to the fire to further anger Kyrgios.

One second, Kyrgios was imagining that his crotch shot would trigger thunderous applause from the audience, and the next second, Gao Wen used a heavy high-pressure ball to turn the audience into his supporters.

Then, "5:0".

Bald again?
Before Kyrgios could react, the scoreboard had changed again, "6:0".

In Kyrgios' serve just now, Gao Wen used continuous backspin to force Kyrgios to use continuous topspin to change the rhythm of the game. A fast connection of ascending points, followed by online oppression——

Compared with Kyrgios, Gao Wen actively surfed the Internet even less.

As a result, Kyrgios was caught off guard, and his batting action was obviously interfered by Gao Wen's footsteps on the net. The accuracy and delicateness of his shots were lost, and he returned the ball directly to the net.

Then?

And then match point came along.

"Match point! Gao Wen holds six consecutive match points!"

"Gao Wen is only one point away from reaching the top [-]. Now Gao Wen has six chances to cash in on this arduous game. What he needs most is to keep calm, absolutely calm, and don't worry about it because of the approaching Victory comes with the burden of wanting to win and being afraid of losing, sticking to your own tactical style is the most important thing.”

Zhan Jun's voice was trembling, and Hu Litao's voice was also trembling. The sound of the heart hitting his chest was like thunder, constantly throbbing above the eardrums.

In the tie-break, everything changed rapidly. Even if you witnessed the whole process with your own eyes, it was still hard to believe your eyes:

How did all this happen?How did Gao Wen win six points in a row?
Kyrgios, who was exchanging venues, was also struggling with this matter. How could this tie-break be completely out of his control?What the hell is going on with all this?

Can't figure it out.

I can't figure it out at all.

What just happened?What is happening now?Was he about to swallow a duck egg after dropping six straight runs in the tie-break?Not only losing five points in a row, but also going further to lose six points in a row, or even seven points in a row?How is this going?How did all this happen?
Obviously, he stepped onto the court today with the goal of proving himself to wash away his shame, but why did he slip into the abyss and into the darkness step by step?Why is he still set a record of shame and left an even uglier history again?
who I am?Where am I?what am i doing
Kyrgios's mind was burning with a tangled mess, unable to calm down and think.

He needs catharsis, or he'll explode.

Then--

ACE!

An ACE at 132 mph (213 km/h) showed Kyrgios' fury in full force.

Ah!
Ahhhhh!
Kyrgios clenched his fists and roared furiously, unleashing his anger at Gawain at the audience for the situation at this moment and for the whole game.

"'6:1', Gawain leads."

The voice of the referee announced the score, and Kyrgios finally broke the ball in the tie-break. Who would have thought that even breaking the ball would be so difficult?

"Kyrgios has such an ability, but throughout the fourth set, he was in a state of being dominated by emotions, and he was never able to find the right rhythm."

"Now Gao Wen needs to be vigilant. Kyrgios is a player with the ability to chase points continuously. He needs to keep calm and continue to contain Kyrgios' rising momentum. Otherwise, the situation will turn around in an instant."

In the studio, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao could clearly hear their own heartbeats, but they still had to try their best to control themselves and continue explaining.

On the court, Gao Wen was ready to serve, and his two serve points were next.

Snapped.Snapped.Snapped.

Gao Wen was hitting the ball and then serving it.

The second zone, the outer corner, at the most critical moment, Gao Wen still chose to suppress Kyrgios' backhand.

However, Kyrgios guessed right this time.

tread!
One step!
Kyrgios, who was burning with anger, entered a state of ecstasy. He backhanded with both hands and pushed vigorously. He did not swing the racket very much, but relied on the strength of his forearm to fully increase the speed of the racket head, and then used his strength to directly hit the racket. Tennis hit back.

boom.

The tennis ball draws a big diagonal line, fast and anxious, and falls towards the backhand position behind Gao Wen's position.

Although Kyrgios's backhand is a weakness, this one hammered out an unbelievable effect, forcing Gawain to take a step across in embarrassment, and the backhand of both hands barely stretched out to cut a beat, wobbly, wobbly Flying unsteadily across the net and landing near the midfield, Kyrgios gave Kyrgios an excellent opportunity to connect the attack.

According to habits, and according to the trend of the fourth set, Kyrgios should attack with all his strength, and the chance of a violent forehand is very high.

however!
At the critical juncture, Kyrgios changed his strategy at the moment of the shot, changing his forehand from a draw to a cut, and directly cut a backspin, rushing towards the dead corner of the big triangle on the right baseline of Gao Wen.

The entire return ball was cut low and deep, as if it was about to penetrate the ground, completely beyond Gao Wen's expectations.

Gao Wen correctly judged Kyrgios' attacking direction, but misjudged the way of hitting the ball, so that the accuracy rate of long strides was obviously not enough. He was staggering, very embarrassed.

Moreover, the way of hitting the ball should not be correct. Gao Wen thought that the ball should be topspin, but it turned out to be backspin. In addition, Kyrgios successfully relieved the force, which meant that Gao Wen had no way to use his strength to hit the ball. With almost losing his center of gravity, there was not much space left for Gao Wen to hit the ball.

Don't forget, Kyrgios is riding the wave, standing in front of the net like a giant in "Jack and the Pea."

This is Kyrgios, who has the ability to embarrass his opponent at any time.

How to do?
Tapping.

Tapping.

Gawain continuously adjusted his footsteps while staggering, slightly changed the way he gripped the racket with his forehand, and at the moment the racket touched the ball, he changed from slamming to pulling the ball. Strength, complete a super topspin ball pull, completely pull up the tennis ball that is about to land and has no power.

Whoosh!
Whizzing!

The tennis ball flew high like this, drawing a thrilling arc in the golden light all over the sky.
