Match Point: Chapter 697 crit moment
"Match Point(
Middle road, bottom line deep area.
This is Gao Wen's return route.
It can be seen that although the body's center of gravity is in an unbalanced and bumpy state, Gao Wen's wrist control is very delicate. The entire line and landing point can be completed according to the layout in his mind to a large extent, and a slight deviation is within an acceptable range. of.
Then, the landing point is very deep, only a big step away from the bottom line.
Moreover, the strong topspin after landing and rebounding is completely sprung up, fast and urgent, and the arc is full—
The only shortcoming is that he doesn't have much strength. After all, Gao Wen has no way to take the initiative to exert strength. He can only limit Djokovic by controlling the landing point.
So, what about Djokovic?
With small steps back and forth, get out of the way, set up the forehand like a fort, and he has already made a ruthless attack.
Here, Gao Wen was somewhat familiar with Djokovic's forehand attack routine at critical moments.
On that side, Djokovic was also mentally prepared, and he didn't panic at all when facing the return ball in the deep area of the middle.
Sideways forehand!
Why choose sideways forehand? It is often because the power of the forehand is greater than that of the backhand, so in a position where both the forehand and the backhand can catch the ball, the player will choose to move his feet and then turn sideways to complete the forehand to increase the offensive power.
But Djokovic's forehand and backhand are balanced, and his attack power is comparable, so he rarely deliberately uses a sideways forehand, but he occasionally uses it when necessary.
For example at this time.
The footsteps moved and the racket was full. Although Gao Wen's return ball rebounded to the shoulder after landing, Djokovic still completed the downward forehand attack from top to bottom.
Shells, out!
boom!
Diagonal, Diagonal, Thunderbolt!
Backhand, Djokovic still chooses to suppress the backhand, "sneak attack forehand to suppress the backhand", this is a very skilled routine, and Djokovic's offense is not the kind of fatal one shot, but eloquent like The kind of Mianmianjiang water, this shoot is definitely not the end.
pedal!
Gawain's starting speed was very fast. After nearly a hundred minutes of the game, he knew Djokovic's hitting line like the back of his hand, and the whole conditioned reflex pushed his body out like a rocket.
Hold the racket tightly with both hands to complete the racket pulling action in advance. During the rapid movement, make full use of the centrifugal force and throw it out with the swinging action.
One top, one push.
The whole movement is very smooth—
"Slash vs Slash".
Following Djokovic's hitting line, Gawain superimposed speed and strength, and pushed the tennis ball back in a more forceful way.
Moreover, the angle is slightly opened.
Instead of avoiding Djokovic's backhand, he broke through head-on.
Djokovic took his time and adjusted in small steps. Although the speed of the ball was slightly higher than expected, Djokovic's two-handed backhand still gave a solid and strong counterattack against the wall.
boom!
One to one, one to go, fast into the lightning.
Tennis is like a ping pong ball, just after leaving Gao Wen's racket, it returned to Gao Wen's court in a blink of an eye, and it was still a diagonal line, still at the same landing point, and just like Gao Wen, the angle was slightly torn again. Open some.
a little. A little more.
The strong confrontation between the two people in the backhand position slowly opened the field completely, and the speed and strength continued to be superimposed layer by layer.
Djokovic's body was also completely thrown out, superimposing all the centrifugal force and body weight on the hitting action, so that the center of gravity was also thrown out, but his control was amazing, two consecutive small steps had already Controlling the body, the pupil suddenly dilated:
Oops!
Alarm bells were ringing.
Because Djokovic noticed with his gaze that Gawain's footsteps swayed and shot, as if he was preparing to defend the forehand position, he didn't leave at all, and completely waited for the backhand position.
But this is not the alarm point. If it is only like this, it is at most a continuous confrontation of the backhand position.
The important thing is that Gao Wen's footsteps are still moving laterally.
Tread Tread.
Continue to move laterally toward your left side, cross the space for the backhand swing, and then turn sideways again to enter the space for the forehand.
Sideways forehand!
What?
Gao Wen's prediction and preparation in advance were not for continuous confrontation in the backhand position, but for the sideways forehand, which immediately surprised Djokovic:
Compared with the two-handed backhand, it is much more difficult to judge the sideways forehand hitting line, because Gawain, like Djokovic, rarely turns sideways.
But it can be seen from the sight that Gao Wen seems to be ready, without any hesitation, the movement of footsteps and the movement of swinging the racket have already grabbed the hitting point in a blink of an eye.
Step on the ground, stand firmly, and your steps are firmly rooted in the ground like a big tree in the sky.
Turning sideways, swinging the racket, the speed of the entire forearm is completely increased, and the speed of the racket head is completely increased like a whip.
In an instant, it exploded!
The overwhelming force seems to be about to directly blow up the tennis ball.
boom!
ah.
Along with the action of hitting the ball with full force, the roar in the depths of the soul also burst out.
Ahhh!
Those eyes, like the vast starry sky, erupted with murderous aura. They were decisive and crisp. Disappear.
slash? straight line?
straight line!
Gao Wen used a sideways forehand to complete the line change very suddenly and unexpectedly—
Bottom line ~www.mtlnovel.com~ big triangle, dead end.
Inbound!
Score!
Djokovic's footsteps had just had time to start, and he could only watch helplessly as the tennis ball crossed his forehand gap, like an arrow piercing his heart.
Then, an unbelievable roar erupted from the other side of the court.
"ah!"
All the eyes of the audience were focused on Gao Wen. An unbelievable energy erupted from this young man who was born two months ago.
Murderous!
Gao Wen clenched his fists tightly and looked at Djokovic with burning eyes. He didn't flinch from the majesty of the world's number one at all, nor was he timid because he was always behind. The audience was frantic.
Djokovic gasped a bit.
In fact, the confrontation of this point is not so fierce, but in this week's competition, Djokovic has never felt such a level of impact and confrontation. With the gradual deepening of the battle, Djokovic's consumption getting bigger.
From the end of the second set to the tie-break, Djokovic was concentrating on speeding up, trying to "overwhelm" Gao Wen, but the price was that the double consumption of mental and physical energy was very intense, and then every point ended. , the burning feeling became more and more obvious.
Djokovic turned his head to look at his coaching staff in the player box, and seemed to be asking with his eyes:
How did Gao Wen hit the ball just now?
fight? any luck
Just luck?
Puffing and puffing, Djokovic quickly adjusted his breathing and regained his composure:
He still has two match points, and he also has a service point.
So, how should this point be scored?
