Chi.
Gawain's hitting sound was not clear and crisp. He circled his head with his right hand to complete a large looping motion, trying to maximize the rotation of the tennis ball at the moment it came out of the racket. He made the return angle thinner and thinner, and followed the tennis ball with his eyes. He spun at high speed and looked towards the other side of the net.
Chance!
Noticing Saramento's position, Gao Wen immediately realized that the opportunity had arisen and crossed the baseline without hesitation and entered the court.
Tap tap tap.
Tap tap tap.
Gao Wen's footsteps had already arrived near the teeing area, and he was watching Saramento's return ball intently——
This is a dish.
Because at the last moment, Saramento basically used his body to barely pull the tennis ball back, so the return ball was almost the level of a beginner's batting practice, with no spin, no power, no landing point, and three no products.
However, it still cannot be taken lightly.
The easier it is to hit the ball, the easier it is to misplace it, because during practice, one hundred hits are successful one hundred times. It is precisely because of this ease and simplicity that it is easy to relax your nerves and think that you can hit the ball easily. If you succeed in playing, you may become lax in touch control and concentration, leading to mistakes.
Practice and competition, these are two different things.
At this moment, it was because of his own urgency that Gao Wen was in trouble in serving to win the game. He did not allow himself to make simple mistakes again.
Therefore, the spirit is still highly concentrated.
Step up, adjust, swing, strike.
Snapped. boom.
The tennis ball hit the racket and was hit hard before it could stop. With a quick and accurate smash, the tennis ball was directly smashed into the huge gap on the opposite court. In the blink of an eye, the tennis ball had disappeared. Missing, it hit the rear fender like a meteor.
"pretty!"
In the live broadcast room, Sampras couldn't hold back his excitement and stood up to applaud. He didn't even need any more words, just expressed his emotions with applause.
Sofar was also agitated, and the corners of his mouth raised as well, but he still maintained a trace of reason and completed his work conscientiously.
"It's another tug-of-war of 18 shots."
“This time, Gawain was the first to make changes.”
"Actually, Saramento's return of the ball was a bit of a lure to Gawain's attack, giving him a chance to take a forehand. Saramento had already prepared for defense early; but Gawain faced Gawain. He didn't miss the opportunity and chose to hit the ball in an unexpected way."
"The forehand did not exert force, but produced full and full spin. With a light hit, it returned an angle comparable to a wide-angle serve. It was thin and light. It completely exceeded Saramento's expectations. After calculating and In a moment of counter-calculation, the situation was overturned, and then Gawain followed up again with the final winning shot."
"Excellent, outstanding."
"Facing the break point, Gao Wen's boldness and determination at the critical moment are impressive."
Sofar explained to the audience the brilliance and profoundness of this shot. As he spoke, he couldn't help but get excited and applauded Gawain.
At this time, Sampras had also sat down again, with a satisfied smile on his face, and you could feel the joy from the heart.
"In the last serve in the first set at Saramento, he also made a similar attempt. He served once, but was returned by Gao Wen with a winning point; at the end of the second set, Gao Wen also made the same attempt. The attempt was successful and the goal was scored.”
"In terms of interpretation of the game, grasp of opportunities, anticipation of incoming balls, and more importantly, shots at critical moments, Gao Wen has indeed shown very gratifying potential."
Simply put, it is spirituality. The way of hitting the ball, the placement of the ball, and the route of the ball are all the wisdom of the brain and the talent of tennis. Seeing such a game is indeed pleasing to the eye and makes people feel comfortable physically and mentally.
No wonder Sampras just couldn't help himself.
Sofar could completely understand, with a smile in his eyes, "Gawain saved a break point, and the two sides returned to level points. The next step is still the key point."
The game is still balanced, and the suspense is still not resolved.
Will the next point be Saramento's second break point or Gao Wen's first match point?
Serve and return the ball.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides had formed a round of ball again. The first three shots failed to determine the winner. Saramento's defensive performance was still solid.
But this time, Gawain did not wait for the tug-of-war to form, and took the lead in making changes in the fourth shot.
One kicks on the ground and the other steps forward.
Faced with a decent backhand return from the middle by Saramento, Gao Wen seized a time difference and suddenly stepped inside the baseline. He completed the swing with a solid backhand with both hands, grabbing the rising point after the tennis ball landed and rebounded, and a boost. Pull type of ball.
straight line!
The two-handed backhand straight line appears again!
Saramento has always been vigilant, guarding Gao Wen's straight backhand; moreover, at this time, the line was changed in the middle, and the angle was not completely torn apart, which also gave Saramento time to defend.
However……
"ah!"
An exclamation burst out from Saramento's chest: It's too fast, the whole connection is too fast.
Gao Wen's step forward when he entered the baseline, grabbed half a beat, and hit the rising point of the tennis ball in advance. It was this step that raised the rhythm of the entire return by a whole level, and the speed and power completely exploded. At the same time, it also Compressed Saramento's defensive time.
Even though Saramento is always alert, the speed of chasing the tennis ball with his feet is still a little slower.
bass.
Saramento had just arrived and had no time to make adjustments. He had already blocked it with his forehand, relying on the strength of his forearm and wrist to lift it slightly, trying to increase some rotation and then control the landing point deeper. , suppressing Gawain's next attack.
But the effect is very limited.
Saramento held his breath and watched the tennis ball fly back. The parabola was still not full enough, and the speed did not slow down. It just flew back flatly. This made every cell in Saramento's body sound an alarm. He continuously adjusted his center of gravity and subconsciously moved towards his backhand to fill the gap.
The next second, Saramento saw Gao Wen's continuous and delicate adjustments to his footsteps. He raised the racket high with his forehand and pulled the ball with a tape-covered pull. At the moment of release, he buckled his wrist inward to increase the output. The angle of the shot, and then the tennis ball was hit hard back like a meteor.
Repeat route!
Turn the ball back!
Gawain still hit the repeated landing point of the slash again!
Saramento's center of gravity had already moved in advance and he had to retreat in a panic. He stretched out his forehand and tried to hit the rebound ball again, but...
too fast!
It's really too fast!
From the step up of the previous shot to the inward buckle of this shot, the detail processing has raised the rhythm of the entire return to a higher level. After Saramento fell into passivity, it completely disrupted the position, even though his right hand had already stretched out the racket. But after all, he still couldn't touch the ball.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball just flew out of Saramento's eye, forming another winning point.
"Take the lead, high!"
