"6:4", "5:4".
"15:40".
The top one is the big score, and the bottom one is the game score. At this time, Berdych is preparing to serve.
The game was not good for Berdych, very, very bad. The lack of game polish at the beginning of the season was also exposed on him.
The same situation, of course, is exactly the same for Gao Wen, but the practice time Gao Wen won through the doubles game still has obvious effects; in addition, Gao Wen's calmness and wisdom can also help with the handling of key goals and key points. A lot of work, and then the situation escalated.
Many times, Gawain doesn't even need to risk hitting the ball, he just needs to hold on for one more shot and return the tennis ball to the opposite court. Berdych's mistake will soon break the balance and give away the point.
The competition was far from intense, let alone exciting.
At the end of the set, Berdych faced a serve that he had to protect, and his mentality fluctuated. He didn't serve once in a row, and all of them were second serves:
The success rate of the first serve in this game is a capital 0%.
Then, of the four second serves, Berdych only won one and lost three. As a result, he came to the current situation, facing two consecutive break points and match points.
The air is burning.
Yujia was obviously a little nervous, her heart contracted so hard that she almost couldn't breathe.
When coming to Doha this time, Yu Jia has actually been trying to convince herself to calm down:
On the one hand, it is not to add unnecessary psychological pressure to Gao Wen; on the other hand, Gao Wen himself admits that it still takes time to modify his technical movements, adjust his condition and adapt to the game.
The most important thing is to train troops, winning or losing is secondary.
What's more, Djokovic and Nadal have both come to Doha. It can be said that there are many stars gathered, hundreds of schools of thought contend, and the competition is as fierce as the Masters.
Correcting your mentality is very, very important.
But no one expected that after a series of accidents and upsets, Gawain would reach his current situation——
After partnering with Nadal to win the doubles championship, they took the lead in getting match point in the final.
The first double crown of the new season was so close and within reach. Excitement and excitement surged up uncontrollably, pinching my heart.
How many surprises are hidden in Gawain?
Even Yu Jia himself didn't realize that he was completely holding his breath. To be precise, he should have forgotten to breathe and stared at the court intently.
Golden sunlight enveloped the entire place, and the whole world was boiling.
Berdych, serve.
One shot.
In!
In this game, Berdych's first serve finally appeared at the most critical moment! At the critical moment, Berdych also showed his top ten style in the world.
Zone 1, inner corner, speed 210 kilometers per hour.
ah!
Gawain kicked his whole body out and let out a muffled groan. His backhand with both hands had been stretched to the extreme. However, due to the control of his hands, he was restrained in the movement. After all, he was still a little bit behind. He just managed to nod a little with his head, but it didn't work at all. There is no control at all.
Chance!
For Berdych, this was an opportunity. A strong first serve created an opportunity, and his steps immediately entered the baseline.
Gawain reluctantly returned the ball and had very little control over his power and speed. The tennis ball drew a shaky parabola and landed in the midfield.
Berdych's step up was very fast and he didn't change his position. He used his two-handed backhand to directly hit a backslash and rushed towards the baseline triangle.
"ah!"
Gao Wen reluctantly cut to defend a beat, because his steps were already moving laterally to cover the backhand gap, but he was caught by Berdych. The steps for the second start barely came back, but he could no longer reach the position, and he could only cut one forehand. Racket, hitting the tennis ball back.
Tap tap, tap tap.
Berdych made a series of small adjustments. Although Gao Wen's return ball was a moon ball, the arc control was very good, and the landing point was already flying towards the deep area of the baseline.
In other words, Gao Wen is trying to push Berdych's footsteps back to the baseline and weaken the pressure of Berdych's position.
Berdych refused to compromise and took a step back, but still within the baseline, switching positions in small steps and adjusting to his forehand position.
Volley shot!
Berdych didn't wait for the tennis ball to hit the ground, volleyed the ball directly from the midfield position, and hit the ball hard with his forehand.
Slash!
For the second time in a row, he hit the bottom line of Gawain's forehand hard and bombed it hard.
"ah!"
This time it was Berdych who made a sound, releasing his power completely with a powerful roar.
The tennis ball turned into a shadow.
Huh!
The whole audience gasped, and Yu Jia felt that Berdych had been ruthless and that this shot was aimed at the winning point.
So, what about Gawain?
One step, then half a step.
In just one and a half steps, Gawain had already accurately appeared on the batting line——
He just moved to the left to feint a shot, obviously predicting that Berdych would continue to hammer his forehand, and he was already prepared.
really!
The steps were already in place with a slight adjustment, waiting for Berdych's hitting line accurately, and the forehand hit the ball without any hesitation.
"Strength vs. Power"!
Kick the ground! Turn around! Push!
Whip!
The collision of strength and power caused the tennis ball to spin at high speed, disappearing directly into a piece of golden sunlight, rushing along a diagonal line towards Berdych's open half.
Huh!
Counterattack, unsheath the sword!
Berdych immediately fell into a passive position and sprinted! Sprint! Sprint at full speed! Sprint across the field at high speed!
Powerful!
The pace staggered from inside the baseline back to outside the baseline, the speed has been increased to the extreme, and then the upper body was completely stretched out, and he barely used a forehand machete to chop.
Got it!
Even though it was difficult and dangerous, Berdych still managed to catch it.
One knock, everything.
Berdych's body had stretched to the extreme, and he was about to fall down due to his stumbling steps, but in the end he still burst out with the energy of the small universe and incredibly blocked Gawain's counterattack.
The whole audience exclaimed again.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball drew a high parabola and flew towards the deep area of the baseline of Gawain's forehand position.
Gao Wen didn't need to move, he just waited in place, constantly adjusting his steps in Xiao Xiaobu, quietly waiting for the tennis ball to come over. His forehand had already begun to lead the racket, as if setting up a fort, preparing for the second wave of strong attack.
wait!
Still waiting!
Berdych panicked and controlled his body, braked suddenly, started a second time, and barely regained his center of gravity. His first reaction was to move laterally towards his backhand gap to cover, and his peripheral vision was firmly focused on Gawain's action.
However--
Pick it up high and put it down gently.
small ball!
Gawain actually came up with an empty city strategy, and finally used a forehand cut to release a small ball!
Obviously, Gao Wen also knew that if he waited too long and forced a forehand attack, the effect might not be as good as expected. Forcibly exerting force would lead to mistakes, so he changed the way he hit the ball and adjusted his grip at the last moment. , cut a small ball over.
oh!
The whole audience exclaimed.
Yu Jia couldn't believe her eyes and covered her mouth, so bold! Such an adventure! But so subtle!
All the eyes of the audience followed the flight of the tennis ball.
Including Berdych.
squeak!
With an emergency brake, Berdych controlled his body, and then changed his running route like a rabbit on the run, making an arc and rushing towards the net.
It was as if you could see sparks bursting out from the soles of your feet.
Berdych still didn't give up or surrender!
