Shake, shake, shake!
Fast and heavy, turning and heavy, Federer's forehand, like a heavy punch from Muhammad Ali, hit Gawain's stomach hard and turned the world upside down.
The vibration of the racket string is clearly transmitted to the wrist and forearm. You can clearly feel the powerful and heavy impact and squeeze, and the quality of the ball is evident.
"ah!"
The moment he touched the ball, Gawain could feel the overwhelming pressure. The power deep in his Dantian was completely released, and he yelled with the swing of the racket.
Forehand!
Slash!
Topspin, strong topspin!
In the blink of an eye, the speed of the racket head cannot be increased due to the limitations of swing space and time, so Gao Wen can only complete it through arm swings, making a head-around swing similar to Nadal, using the rotation of the upper body The action adds strong spin to push the tennis ball back.
Rub rub rub rub!
The tennis ball flew back.
It can be seen from the flying parabola that the top spin caused by strong friction pulls the tennis ball up high and flies across the sky lightly.
Then, after crossing the net, he quickly dropped, looking for an inbounds position near Federer's change of line on the right to prepare for landing.
Meanwhile, across the net.
Federer is demonstrating textbook footwork and control at the net on hard courts.
Small steps, continuous small steps to adjust the center of gravity and balance.
Immediately afterwards, he took a long horizontal step to the right, and followed the inertia of the sprint, throwing his body directly. His footsteps could not even keep up with the sprint of his body. It looked as if the racket was given life, pulling Federer. His arms and body flew out laterally to the right.
One second, Federer was at the left end of the net.
The next second, Federer appeared in the right service area and made a flying volley.
From a seemingly impossible distance, Federer completed the incredible transformation through his precise prediction and gorgeous footsteps.
Snapped.
When the body loses its center of gravity, when the steps cannot provide support, when the upper body is extended to the extreme and becomes uncontrollable.
Federer, relying only on the delicate control of his wrist, incredibly intercepted Gawain's diagonal shot and returned a small ball.
Huh!
The whole audience was shocked and dumbfounded. Their hearts exploded into proudly blooming flowers. They couldn't believe their eyes -
a little.
One touch.
A rub.
Then, a magic called "Federer" happened.
The tennis ball crossed the net lightly, almost touching the net, and fell straight up and down.
The placement is perfect.
Unloading, perfect.
Control, perfection.
An unparalleled and impeccable volley in front of the net, once again proved Federer's superb skills in front of the net, and his touch is amazing.
"Uh-huh!"
A powerful roar erupted from the depths of Gao Wen's dantian again. After noticing Federer's movement, he started to move forward vertically.
Kick the ground!
break out!
Sprinting in a straight line is like the 100-meter final of the Olympic Games. The explosion and speed are released instantly, and the whole person has been melted into the hunting wind.
The only shortcoming of Federer's small ball in front of the net is that he has no center of gravity and no support, so he cannot control the return line.
Line, this is the only shortcoming.
Federer relied entirely on his hand to hit a small ball in the middle, which landed in the middle of the two service areas. This also meant that Gao Wen only had to charge forward in a straight line.
In terms of running distance, it's not that bad.
The important thing is that Gawain's center of gravity has not shifted and there is no need to change direction, which also saves some precious starting time.
Maybe just a millisecond.
But this millisecond is crucial to Gawain.
Above the eardrums, one can clearly feel the violent crackling sound of sunlight and strong wind, like the drumbeat of heavy metal rock, the world is roaring.
Gawain's attention was completely focused on that tennis ball that was beating like an elf. He refused to give up, surrender, or miss!
run.
sprint.
Come forward.
Then, with a sliding step, he rushed out first. When it was too late, he used a sliding step to buy himself some time.
The body is parallel to the ground and extends forward. You can even clearly feel the raging heat waves on the ground, and the soles of the shoes are slowly melting.
Forehand, cut into the space between the tennis ball and the ground, watch the second fall of the tennis ball, and gently lift and pick it up——
Arrived!
He looked at Federer's position in front of him out of the corner of his eyes. With a slight turn of his wrist, he could clearly see a hooking movement to complete the shot.
At this time, Gawain's whole body had already appeared as a horse, completely parallel to the ground, but what was even more incredible was that he still did not lose his center of gravity.
He braked, controlled his body, and supported the ground with both hands. In the blink of an eye, he retracted his legs and stood directly, keeping his knees bent. He quickly adjusted his center of gravity and continued to pound his feet in small steps. He stared at Federer intently, preparing for the next shot. Prepare for defense or offense.
ah!
At the scene, some audience members were already exclaiming uncontrollably because——
Gawain's return shot is amazing!
incredible!
With a slight provocation, Gawain passed Federer, who was about to defend his backhand on the left, and drew a diagonal line to attack Federer's forehand.
Accident!
Moreover, Gao Wen's line and landing point control were so wonderful that he actually pushed a little deeper into the zone, and the landing point was almost on the bottom line of the service area.
what does that mean?
This means that the landing point has broken through Federer's defense and entered the area behind Federer.
So, what about Federer?
Emergency stops and turns.
Second start.
He kicked off the ground with his left leg, his strength exploded in an instant, he adjusted his steps continuously, and approached the tennis ball. Then he turned his back to Gawain and used his forehand behind his body to reach the tennis ball in a very awkward and uncomfortable way.
In such a state, let alone exerting force, even the balance, center of gravity and the sense of space on the entire court are distorted, and there is no control at all.
It’s all about the wrist and forearm.
However!
but!
Actually!
Federer forcefully hooked his wrist inward, and incredibly pulled the tennis ball back from behind him.
What kind of magic ball is this?
Slash? straight line?
Slash gap!
Obviously, even in the most critical and difficult situation, Federer was still observing Gawain's position, and when he realized that Gawain might be covering a straight line, he drew a diagonal line.
At this time, Gawain's entire forehand half was open.
The tennis ball flew back.
etc……
etc!
That's... Gawain!
Step, push, exert force, fly.
On the court, Gawain was like Gandalf in "The Lord of the Rings", standing on a single-plank bridge, confronting the Balrog head-on. He said -
"I am a servant of the Holy Fire. I hold high the flame of Arnor. The evil fire will not help you, Fire of Udun! Go back to the darkness!"
"You! Forbidden! Pass! (Youn-Shall-Not-Pass!)"
dark!
Desperate situation!
alone!
However, no one can stop it!
As graceful as a startling dragon, as graceful as a swimming dragon, a bolt of lightning soared into the sky and stopped in mid-air. It performed a scissor-leg cross step, just like a spacewalk.
Hold the racket tightly with your forehand, fully stretch your body, showing the power of the thunder god, just at the end of the racket, firmly grasping the tail of the tennis ball that is about to disappear.
One buckle!
One press!
One kill!
Then, the whole world went silent.
