Chapter 1476 Burned up

Emergency stop, emergency turn, start start and start again.

Gao Wen couldn't tell how many times he was sprinting back and forth, but he didn't care, there was only one thought in his mind.

Slash, backhand.

Gao Wen expected that Wawrinka would choose a diagonal line as a breakthrough point, but he completely threw his center of gravity out in the first shot, and the braking function of his footsteps was not good enough, so that it affected the second start, and the rhythm of the horizontal sprint slowed down a little. After all, the disc and the first disc are not the same thing.

By relying on early prediction and timely response, Gao Wen won a glimmer of life for himself, maybe not much, but Gao Wen believed that this was enough.

Faith is immortal.

Tread Tread.

Tread Tread.

The sound of footsteps hitting the ground continued to hit the eardrums like thunder, the heart was almost about to burst, and the burning blood was about to dry up, so that there was not much power left in the depths of the soul.

However, he was still running.

Even though every cell and every muscle in his body was strongly protesting, he still ran with full concentration, sprinting towards the goal.

near.

closer.

The mustard-yellow light and shadow seemed to be on fire, and continued to fly towards the doubles area.

tread.

Tread Tread.

The whole world fell into slow motion, and every sound of footsteps roared in his mind with exceptional clarity, and then Gao Wen realized that he had to make a move.

Otherwise it will be too late.

The two-handed backhand can't be stretched at all, so I switched to one-handed backhand to hit the ball, and the whole body is fully opened and extended along the sliding movement.

Bass, babble, babble, the sound of the surf on the red clay surged and rolled in the air.

Then, there was an overwhelming force of impact on the racket, shaking violently from the racket to the wrist, it was really hard to control with one hand, but Gao Wen had already made up his mind, turned the racket face up, and lifted it lightly.

lob.

Gao Wen knew what he should do, but the quality and tail force of the tennis ball didn't give him much time, and it flew out with just a light touch.

Ugh.

Gao Wen almost lost control of his center of gravity. He barely controlled himself by supporting the ground with his left hand, but he no longer cared about his embarrassment. He regained his center of gravity with a strong push, stood up in a clockwise direction, kept his feet flexible, and prepared to continue defending—

What about tennis?

Raise your head and look at the sky, the mustard yellow parabola crosses the whole court, and all the heads of the Philippe Chatier stadium are also raised, as if they are waiting for a meteor to fall.

Wawrinka is no exception.

Wawrinka was already online, but halfway through, he realized that the parabola was deeper than expected, so he retreated quickly, observing his position all the way back, and fixed his eyes on the coordinates of the tennis ball.

step back.

Back up again.

keep going back.

Until the footsteps exit the bottom line, the eyes follow the tennis ball and fall to the ground.

Falling, falling slowly, the moment of brilliance, burning blazingly.

Finally, land.

Out of bounds.

Very very close, but still out of bounds after all, a full ball out of bounds, just a little bit, just a little bit away from being able to enter the bounds, just a little bit away from being able to rely on defense to turn things around, just a little bit away from the last A little bit can continue the battle.

However, it was out of bounds after all, without a doubt.

Wawrinka froze.

As soon as he let go of his palm, the racket fell to the ground, covered his cheeks and knelt on his knees, just staring blankly at his player's box.

Eyes full of disbelief.

Time, freeze at this moment—

The game is over.

With four serve wins and the ninth match point, Wawrinka finally cashed in.

"4:6", "6:4", "6:2", "6:7(7, "10:8".

The whole match took five hours and fourteen minutes at the end, and it was frozen here, drawing an end to this thrilling and hearty Huashan Discussion of Swords.

In the end, Wawrinka defeated Gawain in a long game. After being eliminated in the first round last year, he wrote a Cinderella fairy tale at Roland Garros this year, and eliminated Berdych, Federer and Gawain in a row. The player stepped on the French Open final stage for the first time in his career.

Who could have imagined that Wawrinka succeeded in breaking through in the second half?

More importantly, Wawrinka ended Gawain's unbelievable 19-game winning streak in the Grand Slam with a soul-stirring game. The brilliant record of the debut was finally fixed here.

Shocked, stunned, sighed—

Worthy of Wawrinka.

Last year at the Australian Open, Wawrinka defeated the absolute king Djokovic in Melbourne Park. He was a late bloomer and ushered in a breakthrough in a Grand Slam for the first time in his career.

This year's French Open, Wawrinka ended the 19-game winning streak of the Grand Slam, the strongest rookie in ATP history, and strongly proved that last year's outbreak was definitely not a coincidence.

Perhaps, before Roland Garros kicked off, people have been discussing the key points of Gawain's Grand Slam winning streak. Almost no one believes that Gawain can reach the top of the French Open. That is to say, the winning streak should be here The end; however, when this day really came, people were caught in shock instead.

In such a hearty and soul-stirring way, in such an indomitable and high-spirited way, in such a burning and dazzling way, it was even expected that Gao Wen's winning streak would continue Go on, but in the end, it is still a full stop.

A great game, deserved a great ending and told a great story, for Wawrinka and Gawain.

The world fell into short-term shock and astonishment, and the thoughts in his mind were raging, and he couldn't react for a while, so he fell into a crash.

This is true of the Philippe Chartier stadium, the players' lounge, the commentary booth, and the millions of spectators in front of the TV.

However, all of this is not important to Gao Wen.

wheeze. wheeze.

Breathing heavily, his chest was heaving violently like a bellows, his knees were almost unable to support his body, and his steps were shaky.

In fact, Gao Wen was already ready for the next shot, but the return ball was still out of bounds after all, even though it was very close, but out of bounds is out of bounds.

then-

it's over.

This is the end.

Although I saved nine match points, even though I broke three serves to win the game, even though I won the tie-break on the edge of the fourth set~lightnovelpub.net~Although I won the long game in the final set But in the end...the victory still does not belong to him.

Some unwilling, some bitter, some sad.

However, no regrets.

Because Gawain knew that he had tried his best, he had burned out, and he had fought with all his strength to the last moment without any reservations.

At the end of the game, the side that performed better and stronger won the victory. It's a pity that it wasn't him.

To be honest, I am not reconciled, but there is also some relief deep in my heart. After all, the streak of Grand Slam victories has finally stopped before the threshold of 20. This also shows that he still has shortcomings, not only clay and On the grass, looking back at the hard court after the clay court season, he still has room for improvement, so he has not been able to continue the winning streak, and there are still more battles and more challenges waiting ahead in the future.

call.

He let out a long, long breath, and then, Gao Wen straightened his waist, held his head high, and with a slight smile on his mouth, he took steps toward the net—

Maybe he lost the game, but he can still walk away with his head held high.
