"Up! Bang bang! Statham!"
"Up! Bang bang! Statham!"
The entire ABS stadium was filled with roaring applause and shouts, and the sound of mountain roars and tsunamis was released, and the layers of gloomy clouds still seemed like the end of the world.
"40:ad".
The third break point was also the third match point.
Statham is still standing on the edge of the cliff; at the same time, Zhang Ze seems to have been able to touch victory, but the final kick is extremely difficult.
Zhang Ze only broke serve once in the whole match, so when he faced a break point again, he always lacked the courage to make the final decision.
At the end of the game, Statham fluctuated, and Zhang Ze also fluctuated. The game was about to last three and a half hours, but it was still not over.
Match point is close at hand but out of reach.
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The air is burning.
Zhang Ze turned around and took deep breaths continuously. His fingertips were trembling slightly, and his heart was about to burst——
The last point can't be won no matter what.
Subconsciously, Zhang Ze turned to look at the players' dugout, looking for Gao Wen in the crowd.
If it were Gawain, what would he do when faced with such a situation?
"Brain? Thinking?"
"Yes, think!"
Zhang Ze took a deep breath and realized that when playing basketball, you cannot rely on your instincts. You must think about the layout and the game, otherwise you will fall into passivity.
Turn around and face the court.
Statham is ready, and so is Zhang Ze.
Then, Statham served.
Zone two, one shot.
outer corner.
Speed 203 kilometers per hour.
A flat serve.
Zhang Ze's footsteps started immediately, but he lacked prediction. No matter how fast his footsteps moved, they were still not as fast as the speed of a tennis ball flying in the air.
So, no chance? Falling into passivity?
of course not.
"What is Statham's tactics?"
This is what Zhang Ze was thinking about just now.
Indeed, Statham is a strange golfer, changeable, elusive, and without routines, but after five games, he can more or less figure out some routines, especially key points, especially in difficult and anxious situations. Statham is bound to He also has habits, even if he doesn't know it.
First serve, outside corner, backhand.
Arrange and combine, and the answer will stand out——
Serve to the net.
As his footsteps moved, he glanced at the court from the corner of his eye.
really!
Statham went online.
At the critical moment, Statham once again broke the balance of the confrontation, making a very sudden and unexpected net, breaking the bottom line balance without warning.
but!
Zhang Ze caught him. To be precise, Zhang Ze guessed Statham's change.
So, how should Zhang Ze deal with it?
Everything happened too fast, in the blink of an eye. Moreover, Zhang Ze's receiving and receiving action had been squeezed, and there was really not much space.
At this time, the changes that an accurate prediction and a clear plan can bring are immediately highlighted.
brake!
Kick the ground!
Throw away the belt!
The whiplash movement of the two-handed backhand is obviously accelerated, the speed of the racket head is pulled outwards, and then, it deliberately pulls out a top spin and flies along the diagonal line.
Determined enough! Also courageous enough!
Tennis, break the sky!
Statham was slightly startled.
Although he predicted the possibility of a diagonal return, the impact of the strong topspin forced Statson to hit the ball diagonally above his shoulders. His two-handed backhand swing simply could not leave enough space, and in the end, he failed. I can only throw my body out and barely touch the tennis ball with my racket.
Oops!
Without looking back, Statham could feel that the ball's parabola was out of control.
The world was spinning for a while, and Statham's peripheral vision only had time to see a figure following him quickly——
It's over.
Zhang Ze, with light steps and high concentration, originally moved laterally to the right, turned slightly and entered the baseline, and set up a backhand with both hands.
The whole person looked cautious, not even daring to exert all his strength. He pushed forward with both hands in the direction of stepping up vertically, blocking a beat.
careful! careful! Be more careful!
Gently. carefully. Carefully.
Then, the tennis ball jumped out along the straight line!
Match point, cash in!
"Ahhh!"
Zhang Ze jumped up and down, he couldn't believe his eyes.
"Ahhh!"
In the players' dugout, the friends raised their arms and shouted, hugged each other, high-fived each other, yelled at each other, and vented their emotions.
The team competition is different, after all.
In the first game, the entanglement between Zhang Ze and Statham was far beyond imagination. It lasted for three and a half hours, and the fight lasted until a long game to determine the winner.
Thrilling, exciting.
But the most important thing is that they all unite together and become Zhang Ze's most important support.
Then--
Zhang Ze directly threw the racket into the air, turned around and rushed into the players' dugout, diving into the arms of his teammates.
After being tense for so long, persevering for so long, and being excited for so long, I finally crossed the finish line and let out my emotions.
"Ahhh!"
Shouting and shouting, he could even feel the pain coming from his throat, but Zhang Ze didn't care, he needed to feel the pain so that the reality would be clear enough.
Zhang Ze found Gawain in his sight, and his smile completely blossomed. He finally understood the meaning of Gawain's words - at least initially.
Gawain patted Zhang Ze's back heavily. No words were needed. Happiness and joy overflowed from his eyes. One look was enough——
History is changing.
According to the original trajectory that Gao Wen is familiar with, in the first round of this year's Davis Cup, China lost to New Zealand with a score of "1:4". In the end, it had to play a play-off with Thailand to ensure its position in the first group of the Asia-Pacific region.
But now, as the butterflies flap their wings, they enter another parallel world and write a completely different history.
Moreover, more importantly than a Davis Cup victory, a group of young players in their prime, such as Zhang Ze and Wu Di, are also changing.
Perhaps, the future that Gawain is looking forward to is taking steps step by step, and they are heading towards a new tomorrow full of uncertainties and question marks.
The unknown charm is as beautiful as ever and moving.
Smile, bloom.
Gao Wen reminded Zhang Ze, "Greetings after the game."
In the Davis Cup, you not only need to greet your opponent, but you also need to greet the entire opponent's team members to show courtesy.
Zhang Ze nodded ignorantly, smiled at Gao Wen and Li Zhe, turned around and trotted towards Statham.
Vaguely, Zhang Ze seemed to be able to detect that something had changed. Fragments of a familiar but completely different picture were surging in his mind, but he couldn't tell a reason. He shook his head and threw those pictures away. In the back of my head, I was simply enjoying the joy of the moment in front of me.
"Gawain!"
Li Zhe called out, approached Gawain sideways, and reminded him.
"warm up."
"No need to be too anxious, just take it step by step. There should be thirty minutes to adjust before the start of the next game."
Gao Wen nodded, said hello to Wu Di and Wang Chuhan, and then turned and returned to the locker room, where Peart and Hamilton were already waiting, preparing for the fourth warm-up.
Next, Gao Wen is about to make his first appearance on behalf of China in the Davis Cup. Just thinking of this makes his blood start to boil——
It’s different, it’s different after all. Because this is a team competition, because this is a collective honor, things are different after all.
Involuntarily, Gao Wen began to look forward to them entering the world group and competing for the championship on a higher stage.
