【match point】【】

Sideways forehand, heavy hammer blow, earth-shattering thunder suddenly exploded, billowing waves of air filled the air, and the whole audience was stunned.

transfixed-

From calculation to game, from layout to containment, every shot of the two players has a hidden mystery. The confrontational tension of you and me pushing back and forth pushed the game to a climax bit by bit, and then, it exploded like this.

Gawain rarely chose to attack sideways with his forehand, aiming for a straight hammer strike. The whole rhythm accelerated instantly, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat, so that he could no longer make a sound and fell into sluggishness for a short time.

However.

Nadal was not surprised. He was fully focused and immediately noticed Gawain's sideways intention. After finishing the last shot, he began to adjust his steps. His center of gravity was light and agile, and he jumped out like an arrow from the string.

A long stride, a full stride.

Nadal showed the attitude of a Kuafu chasing the sun, his speed increased to the extreme, and he pushed forward violently, because he knew that he could not catch up. Gawain's shot was perfect, with a perfect combination of power and landing point, leaving nothing to him This leaves room for counterattacks, so he must defend.

As one of the best defensive masters in the entire tour, Nadal knows how to respond.

Under the eyes of everyone who was stunned, Nadal unexpectedly rushed to the game in a hurry. His body and footsteps were at their best, and his eyes were focused on the tennis ball like a cheetah.

With one step, the upper body is pushed out, and the two-handed backhand evolves into a one-handed backhand, cutting with one shot -

Whoosh.

The tennis ball spins at high speed, and the parabola rolls up like a tornado, but the speed is very fast, and it jumps into the deep area along the diagonal like lightning.

This cutting shot is both defensive and offensive.

Gao Wen glanced at the flight speed and parabola, and was about to take a step closer to the net and immediately change direction. He immediately realized that if he went online, he would be passive and would not have time to complete the block in front of the net. But if he retreated, You just have to speed up.

First, Gawain just turned sideways.

Secondly, Gawain stepped into the scene.

This also means that Gawain's lateral movement needs to face more adjustments in position and center of gravity. He has no time to hesitate and starts moving immediately. Before it is later, rely on prediction and decision-making to buy some time.

As long as he is decisive and arrives quickly, Gawain will still take the initiative.

Kick, step, run, sprint—

One step.

from the left side of the pitch

Running wildly to the right, before the steps are in place, the forehand swing has already been set up. In the next step, the right leg firmly supports the body. The inertia of the sprint and the acceleration of the run-up turn into reaction force and run through the soles of the feet like electricity. Rising, and finally following the turning movement, swinging the racket with full force to attack in a sweeping motion.

Continuous attacks!

Although the opportunity was not the best, and his steps and center of gravity were not adjusted optimally, Gao Wen's attack was still very determined. He shot and hit with one shot, and after hitting the ball, he jumped up to complete the adjustment.

Slash!

The center of gravity rose up amid the chaos and bumps, getting rid of the pull of gravity and regaining balance, but his eyes were always firmly fixed on the tennis ball, and he immediately noticed Nadal's hitting action.

Backhand nudge.

In his passive state, Nadal has been trying to adjust his steps and improve his defensive quality. This is not easy, but Nadal still found a way, relying on his backhand to barely push a shot into the middle to slow down the rhythm.

This return shot had no power, no spin, and the landing point was shallow—

Gawain frequently used this move to disrupt Nadal's continuous offensive rhythm, and Nadal now also used the same move to disrupt the continuity of Gawain's continuous attacks.

Gao Wen took a look at the spot where the return ball landed. He guessed that Nadal was digging a trap to lure him to the net. Nadal's ability to break through the net was unique in tennis; but in the current round, Gao Wen continued to stand on the baseline and had a greater advantage.

then.

Gao Wen gave up the Internet. At the same time, he did not aggressively attack continuously. On the contrary, he slowed down the pace and deliberately stood on the baseline and waited.

Delay the move.

Nadal did not expect it, nor did the commentator or the audience. You can even clearly see an obvious pause before Gawain took action.

Gawain not only slowed down the rhythm, but also further dragged the rhythm into the quagmire. Now, Nadal, who was in a defensive position, had to move first—

Otherwise, if you wait for Gawain to take action before moving, you may not be able to keep up.

Moreover, the key point is that Gao Wen cleverly used Nadal's shot to return the ball in the middle, and fully opened up the forehand, backhand, middle, small ball and other routes, making Nadal unable to predict at all and completely passive.

The tension between shots is vividly displayed in this round.

In desperation, Nadal had to move first, taking two steps to his left, and then saw Gawain finally start swinging.

Oops!

accept

Dar reacted quickly and kicked off his left leg. After controlling his body, he immediately kicked off the ground with all his strength and pushed himself out to the right again.

Backhand!

It was a backhand again!

Surprise, absolutely surprise.

The audience is not a goldfish memory. They should all remember that in the last point, Nadal was in a very passive dilemma and completed the counterattack with a backhand slash.

Although Nadal's backhand is indeed in a relatively weak position, it does not mean that Nadal's backhand cannot launch a counterattack and score winning points. In fact, Nadal's backhand is against the forehand of the right-handed player, and his His ability to withstand blows and his level of leverage are both absolutely top-notch.

but now?

In the previous point, Nadal had just counterattacked a backhand. How could he continue to suppress Nadal's backhand in this point? literature from pen

In fact, this is exactly Gawain's strategy.

Find a new way to continue to suppress Nadal's backhand -

It can be seen from the movement of Nadal's footsteps that he has been covering his forehand. After all, Gao Wen's backhand is at the top level of the ATP. He uses his backhand to counterattack Nadal's fronthand. His hands are never left behind, but Nadal's game must start from the forehand to open up the situation. Naturally, Nadal's attention is focused.

And Gao Wen unexpectedly broke through Nadal's backhand, especially during the game of pulling and calculation, he continuously aimed backhand hammers, firmly restraining Nadal's attention, and controlling Nadal's backhand to not give him breathing room. It also means that Nadal's forehand has been unable to work for a long time.

As for the previous point?

Gawain did not forget his lesson, but he was not soft-hearted, neither timid nor flinching nor hesitant. He boldly and resolutely launched continuous attacks.

Sure enough, Nadal was caught off guard when he was killed.

One kick—

Nadal flew up. Only then did he realize Gao Wen's tactical intention. He didn't exert any force and deliberately waited for a shot to delay his shot. Then he aimed his forehand skateboard at the sideline and directly opened the angle.

The purpose is to destroy Nadal's center of gravity again.

Nadal was indeed embarrassed. Although his reaction was timely, his steps were pulled out of the sideline and his body was not fully stretched out. His backhand was forced to cut again.

ah!

Even when chipping, Nadal roared.

With this shot, you can feel Nadal's passivity. He was completely suppressed by Gawain, and his cutting in the passive state still roared.
