When the game time finally broke through four hours, this historic Asian duel also entered the end of the fourth set, and the bayonet battle continued.

The entire game process can be described as ups and downs, intense and exciting.

After taking the lead in winning the first set, at the end of the second set, Gao Wen improved his form again and copied the trend of the last three rounds of the first set. By "2:0", the Arthur Ashe stadium was completely boiling. Could it be that the dark horse is going to be black to the end?

This is also the first time that Gao Wen has led by a big score of "2:0" since he was in the US Open this year; however, the No. 10 seed, who had a last stand, launched a strong counterattack in the third set.

Kei Nishikori, who took the lead to serve, broke Gao Wen's serve twice. Unfortunately, he was unable to keep his next serve twice, and he was never able to realize his break advantage and opened up the score. The two players stalemate all the way to the end of the game.

Kei Nishikori seized the opportunity when Gao Wen's physical strength fluctuated, improved his state, broke Gao Wen's second serve that had to be saved, and broke serve for the third time in the third set, and this time he directly won the entire set. Take it back under his command and win a set.

Looking at the first three sets, the scores were actually very close. In terms of total points, Kowain won by four points in the first set, two points by Kowain in the second set, and three points by Kei Nishikori in the third set.

In other words, the outcome of each set depends on the performance of the key points. Whoever can show the best performance at the critical moment will win that set.

Going into the fourth set, the same is true.

Both players experienced obvious physical fluctuations, and the difficulties faced in serving games also increased, making it easier to break serve. Both Gao Wen and Kei Nishikori broke the opponent's two serve games, and the score was not enough. Pulled away, all the way to a stalemate again until the final stage of the fourth set.

Once again, under the situation of "5:6" behind in the game, Gao Wen faced the unavoidable serve, and Kei Nishikori launched a fierce attack again——

Start the attack from the receiving link, and no matter whether it is the first serve or the second serve, you have to grab it at the risk of making mistakes, especially Kei Nishikori feels very good now, and he has hit a lot of amazing shots when he grabs the serve. As for Gao Wen being very passive, he sent a break point at "30:40".

"Ah! Ahhh!"

Facing the first break point and counting, Gao Wen suppressed Kei Nishikori's position with a close-up serve with a strong side spin, and directly scored with the serve to save the break point, and the two sides returned to a tie.

Gao Wen clenched his fists to cheer himself up, the more critical the moment, the more he needed to show his best condition! The fourth set was not over yet, and he was not prepared to give up the fourth set victory.

But then -

"Good job!"

Nishikori Kei did not roar, but clenched his fist heavily and waved it around his side a few times, cheering himself up, because he grabbed Gao Wen's second serve again, forcing Gao Wen to return with a fierce attack of grabbing the rising point. The ball came out shallow, and aimed at Gao Wen's chance to stand back. Kei Nishikori put a small ball in front of the net very suddenly, using a combination of long and short to prevent Gao Wen from keeping up, and Kei Nishikori scored.

The second break point and inventory.

Just like the beginning and end of every previous set, both players are clenching their teeth and doing their best. Every point is the key, and everyone has a chance.

"40: AD".

call…

Although facing break point and inventory again, Gao Wen was very calm. After letting out a long breath, he started to shoot the ball, and his brain started to run at high speed.

How should you choose to serve?

Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.

Gao Wen had already started throwing the ball, and the mustard yellow tennis ball fell into the deep orange sunset glow all over the sky, and then his whole body threw it with force like a spring.

boom.

Close to the backhand, external rotation.

Kei Nishikori was concentrating, and moved his feet immediately, but when he saw the tennis ball landing, he immediately realized:

trap!

Gawain sent a shallow ball.

What's the meaning?

The service area can be divided into six blocks as a whole, the upper half near the net is called the shallow area, the lower half near the bottom line of the serve is called the deep area, and the side near the sideline is the outer corner, and the middle block is the The middle (close body), the side close to the center line is the inner corner.

On the whole, the serve is often pressed in the deep area, because the shallow area is close to the net, a little improper control will go directly to the net, and the requirements for the parabola are very high; in addition, hard courts are mainly flat shots, and the entire parabola They are all very flat, and you must aim at the deep area to be able to serve into the area.

However, very, very occasionally, players will specifically use super topspin to keep the tennis ball in the shallow area, and then use the spin after the landing rebound to tear out big angles, especially the outer corner.

This time, Gao Wen aimed at the shallow area, but the target was in the middle.

The speed of the ball is not fast, but the rebound after landing is very high, and the topspin is completely brushed. Obviously, Gao Wen increased the spin of the first serve and then controlled the landing point to limit Kei Nishikori from grabbing the first serve and the second serve in this round. Kei Nishikori's hand is very good now, and the success rate of grabbing the serve is very high, which also makes Gao Wen very passive.

Now, Gao Wen made a change.

Kei Nishikori immediately realized that something was wrong, but it was too late to rush forward to grab the rising point, and he was forced to retreat, because Gao Wen's topspin was very full, and Kei Nishikori had time to grab the rising point Before the point, it has rebounded beyond the knee position, so if Kei Nishikori wants to hit the tennis ball, retreating is the only way.

ah.

Kei Nishikori's footsteps were still unwilling to completely retreat and lose his defensive position, so when his hands finished touching the ball, the center of gravity of his body was still lifted back by the strong rotation of the tennis ball, so that the arc control of the return ball was slightly insufficient——

Not deep enough, and the arc is a little higher.

Oops!

Kei Nishikori immediately noticed that Gawain had entered the baseline and approached the midfield.

Tread Tread.

Kei Nishikori's first reaction was to sprint towards his forehand gap, because there was no time to hesitate at this time, the entire field was full of gaps, he had to bet on one side, so he chose the forehand that vacated the entire field , full speed sprint.

However!

Gao Wenming, who can volley the ball ~www.mtlnovel.com~, deliberately adjusted his position in small steps, waiting for the tennis ball to hit the ground, and at the same time waiting for Kei Nishikori to start his defense, and then made a very light and simple backslash with his forehand.

The tennis ball fell into the backhand gap behind Kei Nishikori.

"Equal split!"

ah!

Gawain clenched his fists heavily, stared at Kei Nishikori without giving in, and showed his determination without giving in. He saved the second break point and count in such a crisp way—

At the critical moment, show the courage and courage of a big heart!

Although Kei Nishikori played like a god, Gao Wen did not back down, and started a head-to-head confrontation with toughness. The two sides were still evenly matched. In the twelfth game of the fourth set, the two players had the second It was a draw.

The crisis is still not resolved!
