pretty!
Agassi finally couldn't hold it back anymore and stood up suddenly, applauding Gawain. In this moment, Gawain was not only bold and careful, but also the meticulous tactical layout and decisiveness of key shots were amazing. It's eye-catching and really shows the playing temperament of a top player.
Worthy of praise!
And more than just Agassi?
Tobias also raised his fist high, raised his arms and shouted, celebrating Gawain passionately. Then from the corner of his eyes, he could see the brand representatives, one or two, being submerged in the heat wave of the audience. He also became excited and merged into the scene unconsciously, feeling the heat wave.
Such a performance is absolutely sparkling!
Louis Armstrong Stadium was lit up in an instant, but Gawain did not celebrate wantonly.
He stood in front of the net, clenching his fists hard and looking towards Wawrinka resolutely and sharply, his eyes revealing a belief in victory——
Yes, a sure win!
When he stands with his feet on the court, he will go all out for victory, give it a try, and fight to the end! No one can know the outcome until the end of the game!
Firmly, Gawain thus holds his destiny in his own hands!
The eyes of Gawain and Wawrinka collided quickly, and they could feel the blazing flames rising up, sparks flying, and the whole place roaring and tsunami even more surging.
"30:40".
Break point, but also takedown.
In Wawrinka's unavoidable serve game, Gao Wen once again got a break point, but in this game, Gao Wen still has not been able to complete any break point so far, and he has missed five breaks in the second set alone. Break point, what about this time? One break point, is it enough?
Gurgling.
Gurgling.
The air at the scene is burning, just like the afternoon sun that fills the sky, and the orange-red halo ignites the whole world.
Wawrinka was completely unmoved, and his background of experiencing numerous storms and waves was revealed. He stabilized his breathing a little, and already reached the second area, ready to serve. Wawrinka looked up at Gawain's position to confirm his serving tactics. combination, then——
Kick the ground! Take a knee! Toss the ball!
Wawrinka's entire serving action is very simple. He does not make full use of the power of kicking his legs. Even his turning movements are slightly simple. He relies more on the power of swinging his upper body to complete the serve. Moreover, the bounce of the serve after it hits the ground is relatively high. It is not A simple flat hit.
116 miles per hour (187 kilometers per hour).
Outside corner! Backhand!
At the critical moment of the crucial score, Wawrinka used a wide outside corner serve to suppress Gawain's backhand.
In today's game, Gao Wen tried to force a change of line with his two-handed backhand, but Wawrinka's serve also changed very quickly. The strong rotation often suppressed Gao Wen's space to change line, because in the face of a high-speed serve, the counterattack I didn't have time to complete the swing of the racket, so it was difficult to complete the last "closing the racket" movement of changing the line, and I had already made several mistakes before.
This time, Gao Wen did not predict the landing point of Wawrinka's serve, so he did not take the risk of forcibly changing the line, but chose a conventional diagonal return.
However, the angle of Wawrinka's serve was not completely separated. Gao Wen only needed to take a horizontal step to reach the position, buying himself some time to step up. Therefore, Gao Wen's return ball retracted the diagonal line and deliberately hit the ball. A diagonal return ball to the middle hits the ball very deep, almost within one step of the baseline.
boom!
The return ball hit directly back. Wawrinka did not adjust his steps, raised his hand and hit a backhand shot. However, because Gawain's landing point was very deep, Wawrinka's power movement was blocked, so the backhand shot He also returned a transition ball, pulled the tennis ball back to the center, and used strong topspin to squeeze Gawain's hitting space.
In the first set, Gao Wen has been looking for such landing points and rotations to "stop" Wawrinka's hitting action and prevent him from exerting force. However, it is obvious that he needs to adapt to the situation in the first half, so the landing points and rotations are always Not quite right:
Either it's too shallow, and Wawrinka steps into the court and an offensive attack is an "inside-out" winning point; or it's too deep, and his return ball goes out of bounds, or there's not enough rotation, causing Wawrinka to hit the rebound ball very badly. He is handy and can easily resolve the difficulties created by Gawain.
Now, Gao Wen's hitting feeling finally met his expectations, and Wawrinka's backhand attack that came easily was not so comfortable, and he was forced to return a transition ball.
However, Wawrinka's topspin was also very deep, and Gao Wen did not find a good opportunity. Although he still tried a forehand small diagonal attack, Wawrinka easily formed a pull, so strong The ball with strong collision and constant speed is Wawrinka's favorite hitting mode.
Back and forth.
Wawrinka attacked with a forehand and hit a backslash, but Gawain predicted it in advance and responded with a backhand straight attack. Instead, Wawrinka was in a panic. However, Wawrinka's forehand was still very resistant to attack the opponent. The attacker responded with a big slash, instantly putting Gawain into a passive position again——
What is the difference between the so-called backslash and diagonal slash?
Take the forehand as an example. Sweeping from right to left is a regular diagonal line, forming a forehand confrontation with the opponent; but a slight outward tilt from right to right will instead fall towards the opponent's backhand. This is Backslash, when the return point is in the middle, players often use such a "backslash" to disrupt the inertia of the opponent's left and right lateral movement.
Wawrinka was passive and used a back slash combined with a diagonal slash to regain the advantage.
Although Gao Wen unexpectedly used his forehand to hit the shot in a straight line, his swing was not sufficient, and the entire flight line and power movement were lacking a little bit. Then you can see that Wawrinka has already slapped the horse immediately. Arrive.
Oops!
Gawain saw Wawrinka's pedaling and braking action, and immediately realized that the situation was not good, and reflexively ran towards his backhand position again.
really!
Tap tap tap, tap tap tap.
Wawrinka moved very easily, even taking a few more steps, adjusting from the backhand position to the sideways forehand shot, and forcefully hit a big diagonal flat attack like lightning, and then the tennis ball was like a cannonball Generally he rushed over.
It was obvious that Wawrinka had killed him.
The sideways forehand, because of the stretch of the body and the inertia of movement, the body's power can often be superimposed more, and the power may be better than the ordinary forehand; but at the same time, because of the sideways movement, the entire gap in the court is occupied. If you let it go, the difficulty of defense will also increase sharply, so you cannot blindly move sideways, but you need to seize the opportunity.
When Wawrinka takes the initiative to choose a sideways forehand, it means that he is ready to score points.
Be bold! firm! Strong!
Facing the break point, Wawrinka acted proactively at this point. He had already taken the lead twice in the multi-shot round, and this time he directly turned sideways forehand, seized the opportunity, and directly blasted the tennis ball past.
boom!
In the wild wind, you can see a mustard yellow light disappearing into the orange halo that fills the sky.
