Forward.
After finishing the ball, Gao Wen was still rushing forward and could not stop the car. Gao Wen had already entered an anaerobic state and lacked his own strength. He relied more on inertial movement. It was even more difficult to stop and turn on the clay court. , so the body continued to rush forward for two more steps before slowing down.
Huchi, Huchi, Huchi——
His chest rose and fell violently like a bellows, a bloody breath surged in his trachea, and a steady stream of adrenaline surged toward his brain.
Then.
Watching the tennis ball cross the net and fall into the bounds, one jump, two jumps, forming the winning point.
As soon as his knees softened, he followed the inertia and squatted down. Unable to control the passion and heat waves surging in his chest, he clenched his fists and roared.
"ah!"
A sound.
"Ahhh!"
Another sound, another sound, venting all the emotions heartily and unscrupulously, comparable to a volcano.
However, this is still not all.
Released to the extreme, cathartic to the extreme, burning to the extreme, Gawain absorbed energy again and stood up suddenly, like a Terminator warrior reborn from the magma, with burning eyes, sweating profusely, a red face, and blue veins bulging out. Show intense fighting spirit.
His chest was rising and falling violently, which also meant that Gawain was not tired. He was also exhausted to the extreme, squeezing out the last bit of energy.
However, those eyes were so determined and tough. They looked directly at Tsonga with dignity and dignity, facing all counterattacks with their heads held high.
A powerful aura burst out from the inside out, overwhelming the sky and the earth——
Let this storm come even more violently.
At this moment, at this moment, Gawain is the bloody god of war.
Involuntarily and uncontrollably, Pulan's heart surged.
Seeing the excitement in the whole place and the overwhelming heat wave, for a brief moment, Pu Lan thought that maybe she should be there.
Close your eyes, listen to the earth-shattering sound from the TV, feel the wave of Roland Garros with your heart and soul, and be immersed in it.
Competitive sports are about winning and losing, but it is far more than just winning and losing.
Buzz!
The whole place went crazy.
From New York to Melbourne to Paris, Gao Wen proved himself step by step, showed himself step by step, and made a strong debut.
Stade Philippe-Chatier, thunderous applause.
In two consecutive games, Tsonga and Gao Wen have shown their top level. Now it is no longer a contest of physical strength and technology, but a collision of wills.
The competition has entered a whole new level.
"Songa!"
Someone shouted, and slowly, slowly, they joined together——
Don’t forget, this is Paris, Tsonga’s home stadium.
The audience was looking forward to a wonderful game, and even more so to the triumphant return of the host players.
In the second and third sets, the audience expected the duel to be more exciting and the game to be better-looking. From time to time, they would support the weaker side. They expected that the back-and-forth confrontation would get closer, and the voices cheering for Gao Wen also increased. Quite a few actually, purely from wanting to watch more tennis.
But starting from the fourth set, the situation quietly changed. Tsonga had no way out. Philippe Chartier's cheers slowly tilted towards Tsonga——
Whether they are looking forward to the arrival of the final set and exciting rounds, or looking forward to the continued advancement of the host players, they must cheer for Tsonga. There is no doubt that Tsonga is the closest to a big score among the active French players. The existence of the championship is also a local hope.
What's more, now Tsonga has no way out.
"5:2".
It took ten minutes for Gao Wen to save three break points and then secure serve. The score gap in the final set was further widened, and Tsonga was pushed to the cliff.
Shaky.
Precarious.
As a result, the Philippe-Chatier Stadium was completely ignited.
“Songa Songa Songa!”
“Songa Songa Songa!”
Explosive sounds, a neat burst of energy, condensed into a rope in the blink of an eye, sweeping thousands of troops and surging over the stadium.
That momentum, that air wave... was like a Viking war song, sweeping the entire place, the wind rustling and the tragedy of Yi Shuihan permeating the apocalyptic atmosphere.
Suddenly, thunder rolled, sand flew, and the world plunged into darkness, as if the sky collapsed.
Looking from a distance, you can see the thick rain clouds approaching. At this time, we have entered the 8th District of Paris, not far from Roland Garros. The pouring rain clouds have completely covered the whole world, and the ink color is It spread thickly between heaven and earth, approaching slowly with majestic momentum.
It can be seen at a glance that rain is already a certainty, but the question is, can this game end before the heavy rain comes?
French Open tournament director Gilbert-Ysern has also appeared at the scene, always paying attention to the clouds overhead.
Obviously, this has been Isern's daily job, which is the case every year. Adjusting the schedule according to the situation, he needs to feel the on-site conditions on the front line.
Once the weather changes, Isern not only needs to interrupt the game, but also needs to clean up the mess:
How to adjust the subsequent schedule for today and even tomorrow?
How can the audience who bought tickets give solutions?
How to maintain order on site during bad weather and avoid unnecessary accidents?
And so on and so forth.
Immediately, Ethan appeared at the entrance of the stadium.
The two players in the dugout also paid close attention——
For Tsonga, he naturally hopes that the game can be suspended or even postponed, so that he can gain breathing space and look for opportunities to counterattack.
But for Gawain, he hopes to win quickly and win the victory before the heavy rain comes, otherwise things will change later.
Tennis is a typical outdoor sport, and weather factors play an important role.
In football and rugby and other events, the game will continue rain or shine, as long as there are no serious weather conditions, even if it snows, the game will still continue.
But tennis cannot do that. Once it rains, the game must be suspended, which imposes more stringent requirements on the weather.
It is precisely because of this that tennis matches are interrupted by weather very frequently and very commonly, but Gawain has not experienced it yet.
It can also be seen from the side that Gao Wen is still a novice in the tour. He has never experienced even heavy rain interrupting the game. The worst weather situation so far is the elusive gusts of wind in Indian Wells. Such Shortcomings will be further amplified in the Grand Slams.
Once a best-of-five-set game is interrupted, the entire game state, batting feel, and competitive feeling may all be disrupted by heavy rain. The two people will be completely different before and after the rain, leading to a complete overturning of advantages and disadvantages, and ultimately changing the outcome. , similar situations are common in professional tours.
Moreover, there is no way to learn or teach these experiences. Only through personal experience can you slowly grow.
Not to mention tour rookies like Gao Wen, even for the Big Four, adjusting after the game is interrupted by weather is still a subject——
The situation is different every year and must be adjusted according to age, physical condition, and opponent's condition. Each game may be different.
The wind blows and the clouds rise, literally.
