Wheezing, wheezing, the lungs beat like a bellows.

Jilong did not give up, still running, still chasing, still trying, but...

After all, still did not catch up.

He just watched the tennis ball pass through in front of his eyes and slammed into the bottom line baffle, making an astonishing loud noise.

boom!

The heat wave was rolling, and the audience instantly fell into a frenzy, and cheers and applause swept over.

Gao Wen once again dedicated his classic defense and counterattack, and he remained unmoved even in the face of Geelong's aggressive all-out and all-out play.

Wonderful, really wonderful!

"0:30".

Ji Long, panting like a cow, tried to use his brain to figure out a clue, but his oxygen-deprived brain obviously couldn't think normally.

What... what's going on?

That kind of feeling is very strange. Obviously, my state and feel have not changed, and the quality of offensive and defensive returns is still maintained. From tactics to execution, I still follow my own ideas; but suddenly, it doesn’t work. It seems I can feel the changes happening quietly—

But can't tell why.

weird.

It's really weird.

Since the score of "0:30" in the third round, Gao Wen has won six points in a row, quietly turning the tide of the battle.

But what is the reason?

Where exactly is the discrepancy?

what happened!

Of course, this is not hopeless.

Judging from the big score in the second set, Geelong is still leading; judging from the small score in this round, Geelong has not faced a break point for the time being, things are not too bad, there is still room for maneuver, just continue to fight hard ; but Geelong just has an indescribable sense of foreboding.

Gillon knows Gawain, his brain is the real ultimate weapon—

In fact, this is only the second official match between Jilong and Gao Wen, and it is the first time in the ATP tour, but as a member of the Bruins, he has witnessed Gao Wen's game at close range, quietly Complete the layout of the sky net and firmly control the initiative of the game.

As teammates, they cheered for Gao Wen, witnessed the frustration and depression of their opponents again and again, raised their arms and shouted.

But as an opponent, the invisible fear firmly gripped his heart, and he almost couldn't breathe.

Ji Long was slightly nervous, his heart beating like a drum.

It's not that I'm afraid or timid, but mainly because of experience.

Over the past whole year, Geelong has been ups and downs amid repeated failures and obstacles, and his confidence and belief have been hit in many ways.

This game in front of me is only the fifth ATP-level match in Jilong's career, and it is also the first time in his career that he will face a top ten player in the world. In terms of experience, it is almost zero. Everything is brand new, and a little change is possible. Shake faith that is not strong enough.

In addition, the opponent was Gao Wen, who was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Amidst the collision of various factors, Ji Long had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't sort out a clear context.

It felt... really, really bad, like a surge of drunken vomit and swallowing it all back.

But what else?

"calm!"

This is the only thing Geelong can tell himself.

"Focus. Concentrate. Be yourself."

Since it is impossible to see the overall situation and control the opponent, it is the best way to focus on yourself and execute according to your own tactics.

Standing by the side of the court, using the time to wipe off his sweat, Giron did a simple squat and stand up movement to remobilize his tired body.

I was in a state of excitement before, with a double blowout of dopamine and adrenaline, and I didn't feel tired at all, but now I'm slowly feeling a little bit.

Therefore, Jilong needs to mobilize himself and detonate all the energy—

He has no room for reservations, and he must go all out to fight for a chance.

He doesn't want to leave regrets.

How to handle the next serve?

Taking a deep breath, Geelong has turned back to the bottom line.

a district.

outer corner.

Although the speed is not fast, only about 185 kilometers per hour, but the control of the landing point is very good, pressing on the outer sideline of the teeing area, and jumping out lightly.

Gao Wen took a big stride, his body fully stretched out, and then he realized that it was not enough, and his center of gravity was a little unstable between his steps.

Dapeng spreads its wings!

The forehand continued to extend across the singles sideline, and there was almost no room for swinging, so he made a light cut above the shoulder diagonally.

One cut, everything.

When receiving and serving in an extremely passive situation, he barely finishes the shot with a forehand slice, so naturally there is no control and layout to speak of.

As Jilong expected, as long as you focus on yourself, you can firmly grasp the initiative—

Small steps, continuous small step adjustment.

Giron was very focused, constantly adjusting his footsteps, looking for a suitable hitting point, and waiting for the tennis ball to return to his forehand position along the oblique line. He had already completed the adjustment, faced Gao Wen's backspin ball, and hit the ball at the knee position. With a forehand pull attack, pull out an arc across the entire court.

boom!

Jilong's offense lacks some explosive power, but the rhythm of the entire connection and the speed of relying on the racket head are still very impactful.

Vigorously and vigorously, the tennis ball flew back towards Gao Wen's forehand.

The reason is very simple.

Jilong noticed Gao Wen's movement, and after receiving the serve, he returned to his position immediately, ready to defend, and quickly moved to the left with small steps.

Therefore, Jilong chose to turn the ball back and repeat the landing.

Although this kind of hitting line is still relatively lacking in Geelong's game~lightnovelpub.net~, he is more used to hitting the ball routinely, but occasionally he can see such a counter-routine; however, even if it is a counter-routine, in fact It is also a routine, because Jilong's anti-routine also has its own habits.

Gao Wen paused his footsteps, and with a slight sway of his body's center of gravity, he had already moved towards the forehand position—

This is what Gao Wen called the "anti-routine routine". Even if it is an anti-routine, Geelong has its own template for the permutation and combination of these shots.

Gao Wen was not surprised at all that Geelong chose to turn the ball back in such a situation, and was mentally prepared, so he moved a little more calmly.

One step, one kick, pull along the inertia of centrifugal force, pull the body back again, and the forehand has already completed the lead swing along the moving direction.

One took the initiative to move forward. When the body and footsteps were not deliberately stepped forward, the upper body and forearm swung forward a little bit, grabbed a rhythm, borrowed strength, and flicked the wrist lightly. Already flew back.

The line has changed slightly, the slash is still a slash, but instead of tearing the angle, it is pulled back, moving towards the middle of the court, and returning to the center of the field.

For Giron, it's a choice to choose whether to catch the ball with a backhand or continue to move and switch to a forehand to continue hitting the ball.

Jilong's footsteps moved very quickly, without hesitation at all, he directly switched to the forehand position, led the shot early, and was ready to launch the next attack.

lead, push—

However, the racket just realized the weirdness when it turned its body.

Wait, what's going on?

Gao Wen returned the ball, why didn't he leave?
