In the third game, Sarkeeson's serve.
Although he lost two games in a row at the beginning, Sarkisian did not mess up his position. The quality of his serve and attack improved significantly. He finally got into the state, and the quality of his point-grabbing attack gradually showed his power.
After experiencing a tie test, Sarkisson used a forehand diagonal return ball attack to get the game point. This was the first time Sarkisson broke his hitting habit in this game and chose a repeated route, which was unexpected. Wen's surprise also meant that Sarkisian's line had been opened.
In the next point, on Sarkisson's game point, the two players played a wonderful round. Both players had the opportunity to switch from defense to offense, but neither could form a winning point. Then, under extreme passivity, Sarkisson's A two-handed backhand hit a magic ball, a small diagonal across the entire court——
The line is very biased and crooked, and the angle is very large and awkward.
Gao Wen was already pulled outside the doubles line, and he managed to catch a shot with his backhand. However, because his body had lost its center of gravity, he could not exert any force at all, so the tennis ball had no arc at all. It flew up slightly and fell quickly again. , falling into Gawain's own side of the field.
Sarkeeson scores.
Gawain followed the inertia and rushed forward, almost rushing into the auditorium. He reluctantly held the advertising board with both hands and used the emergency brake to control his body.
At the same time, Sarkeeson, who barely finished the shot on the other side, almost fell down. He used his hands and feet to barely control his balance, and was in a state of embarrassment.
It was a wonderful duel. Both players had pushed themselves to the extreme and successfully won the roaring applause of the audience.
Sarkisian, who won his serve with an incredible performance, also released his emotions. He clenched his fists and roared like a lone wolf at the moon. The sound of bursting veins and spurting blood ignited the enthusiasm and cheers of the audience. Sounds and whistles came and went, spreading out in a mighty manner.
Sure enough, Sarkeeson was in good condition and would never surrender easily. To be precise, he was only broken in one serve. His goal is still victory.
But Sarkisian still needs to ask Gawain for his opinion.
On this side of the court, Gao Wen's blood also boiled. Although he lost the game point, Sarkisson's excellence also inspired his state.
"Let this battle begin!"
As a result, a confrontation situation formed.
In the next five games, both players performed well in their own serving games. The mercury-laden offense hit consecutive good shots, making full use of their own serving advantages. Their bold attacks continuously triggered cheers and applause on the scene. You came and I came. The confrontation battle is really exciting.
No one had a break point in their serving game, both of them successfully held serve, and then the score became deadlocked at the end of the set.
"5:3".
After Gao Wen successfully held serve again, Sarkisian came to the first set where he had to hold serve.
Sarkisian felt the pressure immediately.
In the previous two service games of Sarkisian, they played smoothly. Gao Wen's tactical routine did not change much. Sarkisian's point-grabbing attack was successful, and his hand felt hot. But at the end of the set, From the first point onwards, Gao Wen's aggressiveness in returning the ball clearly exploded.
The sudden burst of speed made Sarkisian panic.
However, Sarkisian still felt hot and took the lead in getting the game point. Unfortunately, he was saved by Gawain. Then it happened twice more. After three deuces, Gawain used a cool backhand. A straight line formed the winning point, and the break point was obtained again after six games.
After losing three game points, he was given a break point, which obviously made Sarkisson a little out of breath. Moreover, he held three consecutive service games without giving out a break point, which made Sarkisson "relax" a little bit because he believed in his serve. He was in control, but he encountered a violent impact in the first set when the serve was unavoidable.
This made Sakison feel a sense of shame of being deceived, as if...as if everything was a mirage trap.
"Mom, he cheated on my feelings!"
But the problem is that there is no time to be sad now, because he still has a break point to save.
call.
Sarkisian took a long breath to adjust his mood and breathing, and then got ready to serve.
At the break point, Sarkisian served very carefully. He chose a backhand position in the middle, but the angle was not too biased. It just suppressed Gawain's swing space.
Reflexively, Gao Wen made a backhand with both hands and returned the shot. However, because his position and movement were squeezed, he had no choice in the return line. He subconsciously returned the shot with a diagonal shot, and the landing point and rotation were average. Generally speaking, even if you want to suppress the bottom line, you cannot suppress it.
Sarkisian entered the baseline in a very timely manner. After completing the serve, he immediately stepped up to press, then squatted with a very low center of gravity, and used a two-handed backhand to complete the hit firmly, grabbing the rising point of the tennis ball's landing and rebounding. Instead of pursuing angles and power, they suppressed with speed.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball was like hitting a wall. He almost copied and pasted Gawain's return route and sent the tennis ball back directly.
Gao Wen's footsteps had already returned to his forehand position. After noticing Sarkisian's hit, he pulled back with two consecutive big strides. However, the balance of his center of gravity was obviously unstable, and he could not backhand with both hands. After completing the shot, in a hurry, I could only cut it back with one shot.
intentionally!
Gawain cut a super backspin, trying to further destroy Sarkisian's center of gravity in his movement.
But Sarkeeson maintained a high concentration of attention on the break point, squatted his knees very well, lowered the center of gravity of his entire body, made a full lifting action with his forehand, and grabbed the rising point for the second time in a row, improving continuously. Rhythm, pull out a more diagonal line to complete the return.
Ping. Pong.
This time, Gao Wen was slightly prepared and his center of gravity returned to its original position, but his focus was still on protecting his backhand.
really!
Sarkisian hit backhand continuously, and Gawain only needed one step to reach the position smoothly this time.
However, just as he was about to return the ball, he discovered that Sarkisian had taken advantage of the previous hit to reach the tennis ball, and his attack was very fierce.
The 191cm tall man stands in front of the net, covering a very wide area, which also compresses Gao Wen's return space.
Originally, Gawain was going to continue cutting the diagonal line, but this was equivalent to sending it directly to Sarkisian. So during the swing of the backhand with both hands, he slightly changed the way of hitting the ball, and used the strength of his wrist to move outward. Send it, and then——
Backhand straight line!
Gao Wen's most classic and sharpest line appeared at the most critical moment, preparing to break through from Sarkisian's right side.
but!
Sarkisian had already been on guard early. He had already started the moment Gao Wen touched the ball, and his body took two big steps toward his forehand.
boom!
Sarkisson's racket appeared accurately on the trajectory of the tennis ball, blocking it! One piece!
Got it!
