"Uh-huh!"
Emergency stops and turns.
"Ahhhh..."
Istomin's body has been extended to the extreme, and he wraps his racket head lightly, and incredibly completes the shot again with his two-handed backhand.
The line of sight follows the tennis ball as it rises, flies, and advances, drawing a straight line along the sideline——
Istomin prepares to break through from the straight direction, that is, Gawain's forehand position.
That tennis ball, carrying the heavy responsibility of hope, drew a thrilling arc. The golden sunlight all over the sky was concentrated on the tennis ball. It rotated rapidly with the tennis ball, and Istomin's heart and body also followed. Jumping high, almost bursting.
but!
In slow motion, you can see a racket breaking into the field of view, breaking the balance, and then the wrist, body, and face are all in the shot.
Oops!
The alarm in Istomin's mind sounded, and only then did he realize:
be cheated.
In the shot just now, Gawain's volley in front of the net was not only unloading, but also backspinned, causing the tennis ball to bounce very low after landing, leaving not much room for hitting the ball. From a common sense point of view, it is a big mistake to choose a diagonal line to break the net. Probabilistic event, because the height of the net is low, it can save swing movements.
However, it is not impossible to choose a straight line to break the net, but this means that the racket needs to be put on top spin to ensure the height of the net as much as possible, pull out a top spin ball to complete the breakthrough from the straight line gap, and it is best to have a parabolic height at the shoulder position The above creates difficulties for the opponent's batting.
Naturally, once you choose to hit the ball in a straight line, your swing needs to be larger and the shot needs to be released in advance, otherwise the closing shot will not be sufficient, and even if you choose to hit the ball in a straight line, the return ball will go out of bounds.
Therefore, Gao Wen's volley in front of the net is basically a trap. He only needs to stand in front of the net, wait and observe. If Istomin takes the shot early, then block the straight line; if the shot time is late, then Waiting for a slash or for Istomin to hit the ball out of bounds himself.
Istomin's hard work never escaped Gawain's Five Finger Mountain——
Kick the ground. 33
Flying.
extension.
The figure appears accurately on the straight path. The forehand is stretched out like a roc spreading its wings. It is placed at the shoulder position, but it is not smashed hard, but at the highest point, it is blocked gently, and the soft power of the wrist is wrapped In tennis, the last push, the shot is complete.
The tennis ball, from top to bottom, is like an apple falling on Newton's head. You can clearly see the pull of gravity, falling rapidly, and falling freely.
Snapped.
It landed lightly back in the center of Istomin's half of the field, with almost no secondary bounce, and rolled out without even having time to blink.
Match point, redemption——
Understatement, leisurely strolling, elegant and calm, natural and unrestrained.
boom!
In an instant, the entire Court No. 2 was boiling with thunderous applause!
There was no need to cheer or shout, the entire audience stood up automatically, showed their respect with the fiercest and hottest applause, and cheered for Gawain.
"God, oh God!"
"My heart almost stopped and I didn't dare to breathe at all, but Gawain in the stadium seemed to be taking a walk in his back garden, firmly in control of the situation."
"This is the big heart when facing match point."
"However, this is not the first time or the second time. We have witnessed the wonderful performance of this young player at critical moments countless times. The key now is how much faith Gao Wen still has to reverse this game. Gao Wen How much confidence do you have to believe that you can win the final victory?”
"From this point of view, it is obvious that Gawain is not ready to say goodbye to Wimbledon like this."
In the commentary box, the commentators and guests from all over the world have gone crazy. Although other players have more than ten games going on at the same time, countless eyes are all focused on Court No. 2, and they can even see clearly. Feel the smoke in the air.
In the player's box, Sampras failed to control himself and stood up with clenched fists. He roared, "Ah!" and then waved his fist in the direction of Gawain again, conveying his belief with his eyes and movements, "Ah! Ah! Ah!" His heart almost broke through the shackles of his throat.
Agassi was startled, looked up sharply at Sampras, and tried to stop Sampras, but after thinking about it, he finally held back.
Because he knew that Sampras was more nervous than ever.
After retiring in 2002, Sampras stayed away from tennis for a long, long time, saying goodbye to tennis completely and entering a state of hermit——
Because of pride and self-esteem.
He doesn't want to see other high-level players collide, nor does he want to see the tennis world still functioning normally without him, because he is always reminded of his old age and weakness, even though he is still competitive and strong, and still eager to compete. Champion, but his body no longer allows it.
Wimbledon, even more so, was once his back garden, where he wrote countless glories in his life.
Even though he later returned to the public eye and started to contact tennis again, it took many years for Sampras to return to Wimbledon to watch the game. This venue carries too much, his passion, his brilliance, his In my life, returning to tennis and returning to Wimbledon are actually two different things.
Although Sampras is now able to face the tennis world and Wimbledon calmly, this is no longer his time, but returning to the All England Club as a coach is another feeling, even if he uses all his strength to suppress After all, it is impossible to conceal the passion deep in the soul.
Sincerely, Sampras expected Gawain to achieve good results at Wimbledon, but all reason could not suppress his emotional desire.
call……
Agassi looked away, exhaled gently, raised his hand to touch his bald head, only to find that his head was silently covered with a thin layer of sweat, which was slightly hot in his palm; then he took a deep breath again Take a breath, stay calm, stay collected, and continue to focus on the field.
He believes that Gawain——
Gao Wen, after saving the match point, there was no celebration, no roar, no vent, no release. He just glanced at Istomin lightly, without any expression, turned around and walked to the baseline, smiled at the ball boy and signaled for the ball. , after getting three tennis balls, he carefully selected them, finally selected two, threw one tennis ball back to the caddy, then stuffed one tennis ball into his pocket, and the other one was ready to serve.
Court No. 2 fell silent in the blink of an eye.
Although British hooligans were famous around the world, in tennis it was a different story.
Because tennis was originally an aristocratic sport, and the audience was often people with higher education, and it has been passed down over time, Wimbledon has retained excellent viewing etiquette for hundreds of years.
Among the four Grand Slams, Wimbledon's audience is undoubtedly the most polite, friendly and peaceful - although there are a few bad apples, on the whole, the audience here is very clear about tennis viewing etiquette.
After cheering, they can calm down in a blink of an eye, keep quiet, turn off the flash, and prohibit movement, giving the game a relatively static environment. Only in this way can they enjoy the top and most exciting duel.
Just like this moment——
"40:40", after saving the match point, Gao Wen's crisis was still not resolved.
Some people died, but not completely...
