Snapped. Snapped.

Dimitrov is hitting the ball—

Does he remember the first inventory of the first set?

of course I remember.

For top players, analyzing and deconstructing the game is a very, very important link. The brain must be functioning throughout the game; The key to victory.

Dimitrov, of course, is no exception.

So, should he steer clear of the outside corner? Or does it do the opposite and repeat the outer corners? On the other side of the court, how did Gao Wen plan for this point?

Game and calculation, confrontation and counterattack, this is the charm of tennis.

At this moment, the confrontation between Dimitrov and Gawain started long before hitting the ball.

Then.

Outer corner!

Bold and risky again, Dimitrov opted for the outer corner, but here, with more attention to the spin and placement, he opted for a hard flat serve.

And, once in the zone, 124 mph (200 kph).

Although the extreme angle was not pursued, the outer corner was not completely torn, but the power and speed were excellent, and a shot was found in a pinch.

An excellent serve meant that the point was half-successful, but Dimitrov did not take it lightly, and his attention was completely locked on Gawain.

However, when Gawain kicked his left leg, his body was already flying into the air, and immediately moved towards his backhand—

Gao Wen did not predict ahead of time and move ahead. In such an anxious and close situation, the receiving side was completely passive. He needed to avoid impatience, recklessness, and impulsiveness. He could not expect the luck of a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse. Concentration ensures responsiveness.

Therefore, Gawain did not predict, but concentrated on Dimitrov's serve.

The moment the racket surface touched the tennis ball, Gao Wen captured the details and made a judgment on the outer corner, and his body's conditioned reflex was activated and he stared out.

One kick, one rush.

The body has already rushed out.

This shot is completely different from the first inventory of the first set. On the one hand, Gawain did not move ahead of time, and on the other hand, it was the details of Dimitrov's choice of flat serve, although the angle was not completely torn apart. But the impact of speed and power is different from the second serve.

This is a brand new point.

Gao Wen could clearly sense the crushing and impacting on his face.

"Well."

Gao Wen let out a muffled snort, and refused to retreat, his feet were firmly planted on the ground, and his fast-swinging hands were pushed forward in a muffled manner.

In the next second, the reaction force pushed the tennis ball back.

Gao Wen didn't have time to close the shot, let alone control the details, and watched the tennis ball draw a full arc and fly towards Dimitrov.

The parabola is too high, leaving a very obvious space for the opponent to attack.

Oops.

As soon as Gao Wen kicked his feet, he stopped and turned sharply, and his body was already moving towards the forehand position. More than half of the court had been cleared, and everything was empty.

Eyes fixed on Dimitrov—

Sure enough, Dimitrov was ready to attack.

Even though the parabolic landing point of Gawain's return serve was slightly deeper than expected, and Dimitrov's footsteps also felt squeezed, he still relied on small steps to adjust, and he backhanded with one hand and swept forward without hesitation.

slash.

The tennis ball, like a bullet fired from its chamber, came back forcefully with billowing air waves.

"Well!"

Gao Wen snorted again.

One step, one step, sudden stop and sharp turn, second start, and return to the backhand position.

In less than three weeks, Gawain has made the fastest progress in his footsteps. He has successfully found a sense of moving on the grass. The adjustments of braking and starting are very gentle, and he can see his basic skills at a glance.

but!

Although Gao Wen's reaction was already very quick, he was still passive, his footsteps were still a little lacking, he was not fully in place, and there was not enough space for his swing.

what to do?

Step on the floor, squat down, lower your weight—

cutting.

Faced with Dimitrov's swift and swift attack, Gawain was indeed passive. Now that he had no time and space to counterattack, he could only passively cut.

Cut sideways, spin down.

In the cramped and narrow space, Gao Wen tried to increase the rotation as much as possible. The racket hit the ground directly and made a muffled sound, but he had no time to take care of it. Instead, he used the reaction force of the racket and the ground to find his center of gravity and adjust his steps It was already running towards the right.

Return to position, make up defense.

Obviously, Gao Wen's center of gravity is unstable in the backhand position, and the gap in the forehand position is wide open. Dimitrov's choice of full firepower is a high probability event.

Tap, tap, tap.

From small steps to long strides, Gao Wen found his pace in the stormy sea, and he crossed the midpoint and cut into the right half in a flash.

Immediately afterwards, Dimitrov's sideways forehand was seen—

Facing the cutting, Dimitrov was relentless, and directly adjusted his position in small steps. With a sideways forehand, he was ready to fire, aiming at a straight line.

boom!

The tennis ball exploded like a shooting star and hammered towards Gao Wen's forehand bottom line triangle.

But that's still not all.

Dimitrov went to the net, and the continuous offensive hammering at the bottom line has created enough advantages. He needs to further put pressure on Gao Wen.

On the other side of the court, Gao Wen was in a mess, very messed up.

Although the early prediction and early movement bought him some time, it was still not enough in the face of Dimitrov's impenetrable offensive connection.

Moreover, Dimitrov's sideways forehand, fast and heavy without bouncing, accurately found the landing point of the big triangle on the bottom line, and pushed Gawain to the edge of the cliff, leaving almost no room for UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Gawain any breathing room.

"…ah!"

In a hurry, the footsteps were barely in place, but there was no space to hit the ball at all. The upper body continued to extend, and finally completed the interception on the falling track of the tennis ball, and very reluctantly scooped up the tennis ball with the racket.

lob.

In an extremely passive situation, Gao Wen had no choice at all; at the same time, he noticed Dimitrov surfing the Internet out of the corner of his eye, which further reduced Gao Wen's choices.

The space for hitting the ball through the net is basically zero, because the bounce height of the shot this time is too low, and it is too late to adjust the footsteps.

The lob is the few chances left.

The only thing Gawain can do is to increase the friction as much as possible to pull the tennis ball up.

But it's not easy either, there's no time and no space.

Therefore, Gao Wen was really embarrassed.

The initiative is tilting towards Dimitrov.

However, Gao Wen still did not give up.

After picking up the high ball, Gawain quickly regained his center of gravity, moved in a series of small steps, and stared intently at Dimitrov, who was about to press high in front of the net.

For such a short moment, the heartbeats of the audience stopped—

Perhaps, Dimitrov is about to end the fight in the second set with this high-pressure ball, and then the two players return to the same starting line, and three wins in five sets will become two wins in three sets.

The audience held their breath, no one could be an exception, looked up to find the trajectory of the falling tennis ball:

See high but not far.

The height is sufficient, but the depth is obviously lacking, leaving too little room for Gao Wen to hit the ball. In the end, the tennis ball fell a little behind the bottom line of the service area, giving Dimitrov a chance to press the ball at halftime.

Dimitrov is adjusting.

But Gao Wen was still moving.
