Match Point

Chapter 1835: unstoppable

Zhan Jun's eyes filled with tears. He tried his best to control but still couldn't stop the tears from blurring his vision.

"The game continues, the fight continues."

"Everyone thought that the game was over, including Gao Wen's father who repeatedly sent out signals to withdraw. Sampras and Agassi both looked grim. The situation was beyond imagination, far beyond imagination."

"But Gawain is still standing on the field."

"After this year's final at Melbourne Park, Gao Wen once said this in an interview with a magazine. I can face failure calmly, but I cannot accept surrendering without fighting."

"So, he did it."

"He's fighting, he's fighting, he's persevering."

"In Belucic's serve game, with a lead of '40:15', Gao Wen's free throw reversed the disadvantage, launched continuous attacks, and overturned the entire situation in one fell swoop."

"Now, his persistence has finally paid off, and he completed a counter-break despite continuing to fall behind in the third set. Now the two players have returned to the same starting line."

"incredible!"

"Incredible!"

"'4:4', the third set has come to an end, but there is still no clear sign of suspense."

"However, Gawain still stands on the field."

If you didn’t watch the game, just scanned a line from the post-match news report, and saw Zhan Jun’s comments, I’m afraid no one would be able to understand—

Stand on the field.

so what? Is there anything praiseworthy about this? Are you sure Gawain wasn't injured in an explosion? An ankle sprain doesn't have any impact at all, right?

But the audience watching this game at this moment will not think so, because they accompany Gawain through this battle, because they have witnessed this journey with their own eyes, and that experience is indescribable in any language.

My heart was beating, and my scalp was numb.

Whether Zhan Jun or Hu Litao, they thought that they witnessed a legendary journey in Flushing last year and that they were destined to be unable to surpass it this year. However, they did not expect that Gao Wen once again used his soul to interpret the most beautiful and moving appearance of competitive sports.

A power that transcends victory and defeat.

The game continues.

After catharsis, release, and burning, Gao Wen returned to the bottom line again and continued to participate in the game. The high fighting spirit in his eyes shined with incredible light.

"40:40".

The balance of the game has still not been broken.

Although Gao Wen continues to improve his condition, the impact of weather and physical fitness still exists objectively, and Bellucic's performance remains stable -

Even though he suffered a break with two game points, Bellucic's psychological defense was not destroyed. Instead, he launched an offensive in Gawain's next service game.

Bellucic also showed his ambition. He is eager to break through the third round in a hard-court Grand Slam for the first time in his career and tie his best result in the fourth round at Roland Garros.

Bellucic still had a breath in his chest and was clinging to the game.

Gao Wen played too hard in the last game, and the sultry weather made people breathless, so the quality of his batting in this game also showed some fluctuations.

But at the critical moment, Gawain still showed his style.

A two-handed backhand straightaway winner.

An Ace.

After two tie-breaking tests, there was no break point, and finally the third game point was realized. It was a thrilling and difficult way to secure serve.

"5:4".

Gawain was ahead.

Although this is the advantage of serving first in the third set, it is not a big deal; but thinking about the crisis of "0:3" in the opening stage, the score at this time seems unrealistic.

In the next game, Belucic had to hold serve.

Similarly, the impact of weather also exists objectively on Bellucic.

Just look at the fifth set between Nadal and Fognini last night -

In such a severe competition environment, the serving side consumed more energy, and at the same time, the hitting power was also restricted by the sweltering heat, so that the serving game faced more impacts, and it was very, very difficult for both players to maintain serve in the deciding set.

"40:40".

For the third straight game, both players came to at least a tie.

Moreover, this time Bellucic saved a break point to equalize, and the two men were in a stalemate again.

Even if you are just an introductory tennis fan, you can see the clues at this time. This game is likely to be the final turning point of the game.

Once Gao Wen was able to break serve, he not only won the third set and took a big lead; he also finally overcame the shadow of an ankle sprain and found a path to victory while falling behind, completely reversing the entire situation.

Then, for Bellucic, the difficulty of the fourth set will increase exponentially.

Obviously, Bellucic is also aware of this. This game not only maintains the outcome of the third set, but also is the juncture of the momentum battle between the two sides.

In fact, the impact of Bellucic's extreme physical fitness is becoming more and more obvious, but he also knows that this round is the final hurdle and he needs to fight to the end, so he grits his teeth and ignites all his potential.

game point. Break point.

Break point. game point.

The tangle of the innings was indeed at a whole new level, and the heat was playing an unwelcome role as both players fluctuated and made some simple mistakes.

But that's tennis, finding ways to deal with difficult situations.

For fourteen minutes, eight equal points, both players missed multiple game points and break points, but still no one could win two points in a row.

Anxious. Dull. Tangled.

Then.

Bellucic's backhand hit the net, giving him the fifth break point of the game. Bellucic was very depressed and threw his racket high into the air.

This shot was simply due to lack of physical strength. I couldn't squat down completely, so I just did a simple backspin.

In normal training and normal games, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com could accurately hit 100 of the 100 shots, but the result happened at this time.

Bellusic was inevitably a little irritated.

But what else can be done?

Gritting his teeth, he still had to persist.

Second District.

Continue to the outside corner?

For a top player like Nadal, in fact, there is no need to worry about being predicted and seen through the routine in the outer corner of the second zone, because the quality of the serve and the follow-up attack connection can keep up; but it is different for Bellucic.

Choosing the same routine requires more caution.

Take a deep breath.

Bellucic serves.

There is no routine to press the backhand, but this is also a very practical serving tactic when physical fitness is reduced, relying on strong rotation to squeeze the opponent.

Gawain, misjudgment.

Because Gao Wen was moving to the left, he obviously judged that Bellusic would continue to choose the outside corner and prepare to fight for a shot; but in this game, Belucic's serving action successfully shook Gao Wen.

Gawain is now passive.

Moving your feet is equivalent to hitting the ball head-on, which is equivalent to watching a car accident happen.

But Gawain showed no signs of nervousness or panic, and without any hesitation in his steps, he took another step forward. He simply got out of the way and stepped forward to hit the ball with his forehand.

The idea is good, but the steps are not moving fast enough, the body is not completely turned sideways, and the forehand is like a backhand, unable to stretch.

Therefore, Gao Wen simply gave up on swinging the racket completely, pinned his right hand to his body, relied on his forearm to swing, leaned his upper body back, and swung the skateboard outward in a small arc.

Like a circus acrobatic performance.
