Match Point: Chapter 2090 1 hit into the soul
At the end of the first set, Gao Wen was proactive in serving to win the game, unexpectedly took control of the situation, and secured serve strongly.
At the end of the second set, the same situation came to Djokovic's side. The world's No. 1 also showed his giant style and tried to win.
Serve to the net.
Impact, pressure, coverage, and overwhelming pressure poured down on Gawain on the other side of the net. It was visible to the naked eye that Gawain fell into passivity and was in a desperate situation—
The stance has been pushed closer to the doubles line, but because the steps keep moving on the horizontal axis and do not retreat along the vertical axis, the hitting point is severely squeezed, so that the swing cannot be completed.
At the same time, Djokovic has completed the coverage in front of the net, blocking the return route, leaving almost no space for the return, trapping Gawain like a dragnet.
However, Gawain on the other side of the net had no time to hesitate or be depressed. He had to respond immediately before he could fully see the space on the other side of the court, and his forehand was already out.
When swinging the racket, the movement is not complete. It relies more on the strength of the upper body to push and the swing of the forearm to drive the body. Not only does it not avoid or flinch, but it also speeds up to move forward. There is an obvious whip-swinging action on the wrist, and the racket head is very fast. As soon as the ground was lifted, it hit the ground.
Snapped.
Gawain did not exert any force.
In a flash, from reaction to judgment to recovery and reaction again, a series of actions are all compressed and evolved into an experience, intuition, courage and courage, condensed on the batting action.
Borrowing force, friction, strong topspin.
Gawain did not hesitate and could not hesitate. He realized that Djokovic had already made a choice the moment he hit the net and did not choose to break the net head-on-
Although it is also a good solution to choose to chase and serve from the middle, destroying Djokovic's balance, and then plan for the follow-up; but Gao Wen understands Djokovic, and the pursuit and slash must have been locked. His only chance of survival is to hit the ball straight or over the top.
In the past four games, lob shots have appeared too frequently, so this time we will choose a straight line.
Intuition, it's that simple.
An instinct that belongs to both beasts and combat.
Then, Gawain had finished taking action.
The strong top spin pulls the tennis ball to fly in a straight line, faster and faster, and finally turns into a blur of light and shadow and rises high.
A straight line, indeed a straight line, but Gao Wen's hitting space was already very limited, so he still used strong topspin to protect it, drawing out a rainbow arc.
He.
o2 stadium, stunned.
Because Djokovic started, it was not a backhand to the left, but a forehand to the right. He thought that Gao Wen would still choose to break through diagonally, but he never expected that Gao Wen was a madman. In such an anxious situation and such an important score, choose to take risks.
The steps have already started. After the emergency brake, it is too late to start again. I can only turn around and focus on the light and shadow rising high -
In bounds? The outside world?
Tennis players seem to be able to feel the overwhelming sight of the entire court condensed hotly and turbulently. The pull of gravity adds a touch of weight, and after reaching the apex of the parabola, it suddenly accelerates to fall.
Whirring whirring.
Wild wind hunting.
With a sudden movement, the tennis ball dived into the gorgeous embrace of dark blue, and the waves seemed to be surging in the air.
"30:40".
within bounds.
blind spot.
Accurate.
Then, the break point appeared.
One blow into the soul.
In the past, Djokovic served and went to the net to overturn the situation. Later, Gawain counterattacked with a fatal blow. Both the offense and the counterattack seemed so unexpected, so sudden, so strong and so simple. It was so short, with only one touch of the ball, but A stormy wave of energy stirred up.
Buzz.
The whole place was in a state of excitement.
All this is happening right in front of your eyes.
Djokovic was expressionless, with his head lowered, as if he was thinking. He turned around and walked back to the bottom line, but no one knew what he was thinking -
Review the gains and losses of the previous point, or consider the layout of the next point?
The o2 stadium couldn't take care of it for the time being. The cheers poured down like a midsummer rainstorm. The whole stadium roared, and the adrenaline burst out and couldn't stop at all.
Exciting, so exciting.
So, what’s next?
Don’t forget that at the end of the first set, Gauvin broke serve first but Djokovic broke back. Then Gauvin broke serve again and held serve to win. The back-and-forth in the last four games is still vivid to this day.
Moreover, whether it is Gao Wen's serve or Djokovic's serve, the competition between breaking serve and holding serve is far from simple. Both of them are big-hearted, and one break point may not be enough.
It can be seen at this time that Djokovic did not panic. He was ready when he turned around. The confidence exuding from the inside out was fully revealed. He believed that he could save the predicament -
No, he knew he could.
A simple fact.
Djokovic didn't even need to adjust his breathing, and he didn't hit the ball much this time. His confidence can be seen from every detail.
In other words, arrogance.
Standing in front of Gawain, Djokovic has indeed experienced too many different situations. Sometimes he thinks too much and sometimes he doesn't think enough. He has won match points and saved match points more than once. In the end, he still lost in victory and defeat, and he had his own pride to protect.
His ranking first in the world was not achieved casually, but through hard work step by step. If Gawain wants to subvert the entire era, he must face the ultimate challenge with dignity. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
The look in Djokovic's eyes was different.
Without hesitation, Djokovic served.
Second District.
inner angle.
The speed is 198 kilometers per hour.
Djokovic was neither timid nor flinching. He aimed his second serve in a row at Gawain's forehand attack and made an exquisite inside-corner serve to open the way. Although the T-point was not suppressed, his beautiful placement control was still excellent.
Gawain, passive—
His body was completely stretched, his steps were flying into the air, and his forehand just barely hit the ball, and he forcefully pushed the tennis ball back to the opposite center along a straight line.
Hitting Djokovic's stance head-on.
However, without speed or power, there is naturally no suppression effect. Djokovic can completely adjust his steps to attack.
This is also true.
Djokovic opened his forehand to the side, and without hesitation, he took a shot with his skateboard, aimed at the backhand area behind Gao Wen, hammered it, and raised his hand to start the attack.
Gawain is tired of running for his life.
The front foot is still on the forehand to receive the serve from the inside corner, and the back foot must go to the backhand to resist the attack.
Although the foot movement is very sensitive, it is still passive when it is in place. The hitting space is limited and the line control is difficult. If you use force rashly, your feet may need to be pulled by centrifugal force to continue moving forward, and the entire court will be completely cleared.
then-
Lob shot.
In fact, passive is passive, but it is not that passive. Gao Wen could have cut a shot, but he didn't. He just deliberately pulled up the parabola. Just like serving the ball and hitting the net, it was an unexpected connection of shots.
The tennis ball, raised high along the diagonal line, flew precariously towards Djokovic's backhand deep area, like a glider making an emergency landing.
