Match Point

Chapter 1863: Return to the top 4

The game is still going on.

On the Arthur Ashe Stadium, both Gawain and Gasquet were running wildly, concentrating, sweating profusely and flushed, but still with bright eyes.

Step, step, Gawain's left leg kicked **** the ground, and he pushed out with a backhand with both hands. In a passive state, he pushed it hastily.

Diagonally, the tennis ball jumped diagonally toward the deep area of ​​Gasquet's backhand.

Although the swing space was limited due to haste, the landing point control was a little lacking, and the triangle hammer was not aimed at the bottom line, but the shot was very solid.

On the opposite side of the net, Gasquet came back again. He was ready to return to defense and returned to the backhand position for the second time. His one-handed backhand was already relaxed and relaxed -

This was the second consecutive round in which the two players continued their tit-for-tat clash on the backhand position.

boom!

ah!

As he hit the ball, Gasquet roared loudly, completely stretching his entire upper body, once again demonstrating the unique charm of a single-handed shot.

The tennis ball, along the diagonal line again, faster, flatter, deeper and heavier, jumped past like a heavy cannon, and the mustard-yellow air wave started to show its teeth and claws.

Right now!

Gao Wen, who pretended to move toward the forehand position, completed the turn with one kick of his right leg. With light steps, he immediately returned to the backhand position.

Obviously, Gao Wen has already predicted. In this round, both of them are calculating and gaming to see who can change the line first and who can suppress the opponent on the backhand position. The head-on collision between the needle and Mai Mang Incredible sparks burst out from beat to beat.

On that side, Gasquet still had some concerns, worried about his forehand gap, and the weakness of the defensive link also made him have concerns.

On this side, Gawain firmly grasped the movement gap caused by Gasquet's slight scruples, and he had already grabbed the position with an advance judgment.

- Kick on the ground. brake. Step up. Welcome forward.

The entire batting action was completed in one go. At a glance, it was clear that Gawain was calculating mentally or not. After grabbing the slightest opportunity, he immediately seized the opportunity to take action.

Both the body and the swing moved forward a little, grabbing a rising point, and the two-handed backhand was already launched.

Resolute enough, decisive enough, tough enough.

boom.

boom.

Heavy artillery, attack.

straight line.

In fact, Gasquet's worries were correct. Gawain had indeed been waiting for an opportunity. A straight backhand with both hands could overturn the situation at any time. Gawain also seized on Gasquet's worries and successfully created a trap. The purpose of combining diagonal lines with straight lines is to grab an opportunity to take action.

The tennis ball was too fast and too heavy, disappearing into the splendor and beauty of the night.

Gasquet started his pace immediately and ran towards the forehand position with all his strength, but -

That's too late.

Gawain's backhand shot penetrated the entire court in a straight line. It was so powerful and heavy that it left no chance for Gasquet.

and!

After finishing the ball, Gao Wen's body followed the forward inertia and went straight forward, entered the baseline, continued to hit the net, and prepared for the next ball.

The entire routine is clear and concise, and more importantly, well executed.

The tennis ball exploded as soon as it hit the ground.

There is no suspense and no chance left.

Match point, cash in.

"6:3", "6:3", "6:1".

Victory belongs to Gawain.

Although Gasquet played very, very well in the first and second sets, once again showing the audience the unique charm of offensive tennis and one-handed backhand, there were not many winning points worthy of being recognized as one of the top five; but there was still no critical moment. He was able to bite the game, but was instantly thrown away by Gawain.

In the third set, Gasquet obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. He was still working hard, fighting, and counterattacking, but in the end he failed to make waves. Instead, the mature and seasoned Gawain seized the opportunity and broke serve continuously, directly widening the gap. , running wildly all the way, rushing towards victory unstoppably.

On the first match point, Gasquet saved the iconic score with a stunning backhand slash "inside-out", which not only received applause from the audience, but also won applause from Gawain.

This French genius, nicknamed "Tofu", may not be tough enough at critical times, but it does not mean that he does not have a **** spirit in his bones.

On the second match point, Gao Wen did not miss it again, strongly restraining Gasquet's backhand, and finally cashed in with his backhand straight line.

The entire match lasted one hour and fifty-five minutes. Gauvin defeated Gasquet in straight sets and advanced to the semi-finals.

When the last point landed, Gao Wen, who was sprinting towards the net to put pressure, stopped, raised his hands in the air following the forward momentum, turned around suddenly, and accurately found his player box in the bustling crowd. The smile on the corner of his mouth bloomed without reservation.

joy. happiness. carefree.

Everything, so pure and so simple.

That kind of happiness is continuously released from the depths of my heart, like fireworks, blooming in layers, and the night sky in Flushing looks like day.

"ah!"

With a sudden movement, Pulan jumped up high. His tightly clenched fists were already soaked with sweat, and his cheeks were flushed. His tense heartstrings and racing heart were only now able to relax. When I came down, the overwhelming joy came crashing down on me.

Jiang Yanyun covered his mouth in disbelief and turned to look at Gao Hongli. The turbulent emotions in his eyes could not be concealed—

Five days ago, Gao Wen was almost about to withdraw from the competition, but now, Gao Wen has entered the semi-finals with his head held high.

Is all this true?

No matter what happens next, no matter which player he faces in the next game, the outcome will be, but Gao Wen has proven himself.

His stubbornness, his tenacity, his tenacity, his will, his fighting spirit, his fighting spirit, his blood...

Everything is burning.

Gazing at Gawain with his hands raised high in the middle of the court, there was no cheering, jumping or celebrating. He just stood there with his hands raised high. His bright eyes were filled with stars and sea. A pure and simple happiness quietly passed away like this. Spreading, shining under the night sky.

"Ah! Ahhh!"

Pulan was cheering and jumping, and her eyes were already wet from shouting, but she didn't mind. She rubbed her eyes with the back of her hands to wipe away the tears, and then continued to raise her hands in the air and shouted along. The entire Arthur Ashe Stadium had collapsed. Surrender, who can refuse this scene?

"Ahhh!"

"Ahhh!"

The mighty, booming sound surged through the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium in the blink of an eye. Even the voices in the commentary box were drowned. The billowing heat wave pushed the night game on the tenth match day to a new climax. , excitement and excitement eat away at all the rationality in my mind.

- Gawain, advanced to the semi-finals.

With this step, Gao Wen has advanced to the semi-finals in five consecutive Grand Slams. So far in his career, the worst record in a Grand Slam is the semi-finals.

There is no doubt that this is an unprecedented and probably very rare feat.

Moreover, for the second consecutive year, Gowan reached the Final Four in Flushing, proving with practical actions that last year's magical journey was not an accidental coincidence.

—When Gawain advanced first, there was only one problem.

Is the second half of the semi-finals a rematch of the Roland Garros semi-finals or a rematch of the Wimbledon semi-finals?
