"incredible!"
"incredible!"
Sofar was already incoherent, and kept repeating the same words over and over again, like a heartless exclamation robot.
"At the end of the third set, Gao Wen saved three break points and set points in a row. After falling behind at 0:40, he scored five points in a row to hold serve and regain the suspense of the third set. , now all the pressure is pushed on Cilic's shoulders, and the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium is boiling."
"There is no rest time after this game. Cilic immediately needs to enter his serve game. Whether he can get rid of the psychological pressure of not being able to break serve in the previous game and focus on his own game, this is likely to be the key to changing the trend of the game. , let’s continue to focus on the game.”
The game was still going on, and there was no rest time. Sofar used strong perseverance to control his excitement and excitement, and quickly brought his attention back. Then he could notice that all the other commentators were holding their breath involuntarily. It was so real. Feeling the heat and tension in the stadium, quietly blending into the audience——
This was obviously something that was not expected after the finalists came out.
This game has obviously exceeded expectations by a long way.
call……
Sofar let out a long breath. It took him a moment to realize that he was also very nervous, maybe even more nervous than the two players. The smile on his lips slightly rose, he quickly concentrated and got back into it. In the competition, we are in the most beautiful stage now.
The first serve went out of bounds, and it was a little off.
As Sofar said, there is no rest between games, and entering Cilic's serve immediately is a test of physical strength and energy, especially after missing three consecutive set points. Whether Cilic can quickly regain his composure will be a test. Very important for his serve.
From the beginning, Cilic's first serve was outrageous. Judging from Cilic's style of play, this is not common, especially when it goes out of bounds so outrageously.
From a technical perspective, there are of course many, many reasons for service errors, and they are quite complicated, but generally speaking, when the serve hits the net, it is often caused by hitting the ball too early or pressing down too hard, and when the serve goes out of bounds, it is because the ball is hit too late or the force is insufficient - —That is, the downward movement of the swing failed to hold down the ball.
Cilic's first serve error was probably due to insufficient downforce, causing the tennis ball to fly directly.
The game requires reading. Obviously the influence of the previous game penetrates into every aspect of the game, and the timing at the end of the third set also needs to be taken into consideration. Even after going through the extreme physical strength, the protest of the body muscles still exists all the time, and there will also be Because mental negativity and negativity are further amplified.
When the momentum is overwhelming, adrenaline will make players temporarily forget about fatigue; when they are defeated, negative emotions will further amplify fatigue.
Maybe, this is an opportunity?
Cilic made a first-serve error, but Gao Wen keenly grasped the context of the game. In fact, he was also very tired now. From being three points behind to five points behind, he also completed a small explosion in terms of physical strength and energy. , he, like Cilic, will feel tired, but now is not the best time to take a breather.
The pupils shrank slightly.
Gao Wen leaned forward slightly, placing the racket in his palm and turning it quickly, carefully observing Cilic's every move. Although Cilic is not usually an emotionally expressive personality, certain details can still tell that Cilic is facing A difficult situation.
Second serve.
Tiptoe, jump, move.
Gawain kept his body relaxed and light, and after continuously kicking the ground, he took a step directly towards his forehand——
Outside corner!
The prediction is accurate!
In fact, after getting over the fear of Gawain's backhand in the opening stage, Cilic has gradually dared to suppress Gawain's backhand. However, Gawain's backhand can indeed withstand the test, which also forces Cilic to consider when choosing to serve with a backhand. More, the layout of the next beat is more complex.
Therefore, at critical moments, Cilic still prefers to choose the tactics that he is best at, familiar with and the simplest.
From the outside corner of the first area, suppressing the forehand.
Gawain's judgment was absolutely correct. He reached the position smoothly with just one step. He immediately raised his forehand and made a sweep——
The forehand swing is complete, exerting full force, and directly hits the tennis ball back flatly in a sweeping manner. The swing movement in one go does not go around the top of the head, but draws a circle in the direction of the left arm, making full use of the rotation of the racket. The strength is to ensure that the drawn circle can approach 360 degrees as much as possible.
Power, all overwhelming.
boom!
A rounded forehand sweep, the most basic and simplest first movement in batting practice, and then you can see the tennis ball shooting out like a rocket.
Diagonal line, diagonal line.
The tennis ball hit Cilic's right forehand directly, as fast as lightning.
Cilic reflexively stretched out his right hand, kept up with his footsteps, and intercepted a shot at the baseline. No matter what, he successfully intercepted the shot, but he could not control the racket surface at all. The waving action of his forearm had just started, and the tennis ball had already It shot up towards the top of the head like a soaring cannon.
"0:15".
In the first point, Gao Wen grabbed the ball very fiercely and showed no mercy when facing Cilic's second serve. His accurate prediction and bold shot directly resulted in scoring.
Cilic was a bit dull.
However, Gawain on the other side of the court did not celebrate wildly. He was very calm and composed. He just shook his fist in the direction of Cilic, with a look of perseverance in his eyes, which was in line with the excitement and enthusiasm of the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium. The hustle and bustle formed an interesting contrast, and on the contrary, I felt Gawain's rising momentum more and more.
The momentum is huge.
Cilic continued to serve, but the first serve still went out of bounds. The control was slightly better, but the out of bounds was still very obvious - he still did not have enough time to complete the adjustment.
Second serve.
Outside corner, backhand.
What? Actually!
In the second area, Cilic actually sneaked into an outside corner and hit Gao Wen's backhand, unconventionally breaking the guess; and the speed of the serve dropped very sharply, the speed should only be about 113 miles (182 kilometers) per hour, and the strong spin landed near the sideline. position, and then jump out.
Tap tap tap.
Tap tap tap!
Gao Wen was indeed a little surprised, but his first reaction was very quick. He rushed out in small steps reflexively, and completed the lead shot early with his two-handed backhand.
The next second, it was discovered that the landing height was very exaggerated. Cilic actually issued a second-zone outside corner similar to Nadal's. The strong external spin created an outrageous rebound height, almost more than two meters, which also limited Gao Wen's reaction. The batting line.
However!
Gao Wen was not surprised but calmed down. Because Cilic dared to choose this route, he must have completed the layout in advance and came prepared. Now he can see through Cilic's layout at a glance, which made Gao Wen calm down——
Kick the ground! Swing the racket! Take action!
The backhand was awkwardly completed with both hands above the shoulders. At the moment of release, the wrist increased the force of the outward swing, hooked and flicked, and then the tennis ball jumped out——
Diagonal line, diagonal line.
