There is no doubt that Nadal is eager to win and will go all out to win every time he steps on the court. This is even more true in this year's year-end finals. This is a terrible season. He is always adjusting and always fighting. Looking forward to it To end the season on a strong note and be ready for a fresh start next season.

However, Nadal's competitive spirit has never changed. He is upright, aboveboard, fair and equitable. Victory is victory, failure is failure. He will do his best, give it all, and then face any result calmly. He has never been embarrassed by his victory. Belittle the opponent, let alone deny the opponent's performance because of his own failure.

Respecting your opponents and respecting the game is actually equivalent to respecting yourself and the sport.

He has always been like this.

so-

A good shot is a good shot, and inbounds is inbounded, even if it is a break point. The facts will not change. He cannot erase Gawain's wonderful performance in this point.

then.

Nadal checked the landing point with his eyes again, and then looked at Gawain on the other side of the net. "This is a good shot, at least from my perspective. You should challenge it."

Face full of sincerity.

Gao Wen was panting and sweating profusely. He looked at Nadal, exchanged a look, and then looked at the referee to indicate that he chose Hawkeye to challenge.

The o2 stadium is boiling—

Because of the competition, but also because of the competitive spirit outside the competition.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

Neat applause echoed over the stadium, truly pushing the atmosphere of this year's year-end finals to a new level. The excitement is only beginning now.

The Eagle Eye replay appeared on the big screen for the first time:

within bounds.

Gao Wen's backhand hit the ball in a straight line, slightly pressing a quarter of the sideline. Although not much, it did press the line. In the strong collision of power and power, spin and rhythm, Gao Wen once again showed his extraordinary ability. The courage and touch are not only bold, but most importantly, decisive.

Then.

Break.

When the Hawkeye challenge confirmed that Gawain's return ball was in bounds, it meant that the point belonged to Gawain, and he broke serve in the eighth game of the deciding set.

"5:3".

Next, Gao Wen is about to serve to win the game.

Wow!

In such a way, with such an attitude, the excitement of this group match completely detonated the scene. Cheers and shouts filled the O2 Stadium mightily, and the heat wave and madness were blazing.

While the game was still going on, Nadal was not surprised or frustrated. After confirming the Hawkeye result, he silently returned to his team's dugout, facing the predicament calmly, when he saw a figure in the corner of his eye.

Subconsciously, Nadal raised his head.

At a glance, they saw Gawain giving a thumbs up, the smile on his lips rising slightly, and his eyes flashing with familiarity. Very, very briefly, they were temporarily separated from the game and returned to the relaxing moment off the court.

Nadal also grinned and applauded Gawain by slapping the racket with his right hand. Gawain's performance just now really deserves all the praise. This point should undoubtedly belong to Gawain.

There was a brief exchange of glances, but soon the two players withdrew their gazes, returned to the dugout, adjusted their breathing, regained their composure, regained their focus, and prepared for the next game.

The game is still a game.

Serve to win the game?

Although Gawain has reached the edge of victory, he knows that he cannot take it lightly, let alone be soft-hearted and distracted, because Nadal will not surrender. If Gawain wants to win, the only way is to fight for it with all his strength.

"30:0".

As soon as the inter-game break came, Gao Wen showed excellent concentration, got rid of the slump in physical fitness, improved his state with the belief of winning, firmly took the initiative with crisp attacks, and scored two consecutive winning points.

However, Nadal was not anxious or anxious and remained focused.

A forehand shot in a straight line to attack the winning point, a backhand slash to form a pressure and then follow the ball to the net. Relying on the pressure of the volley in front of the net, Gao Wen returned the ball to the net, showing the giant's big heart with an absolutely strong posture.

"30:30".

The stalemate continues.

In fact, just like Nadal's last serve, the entanglement and competition between you and me have never been able to widen the gap. Whether it is Nadal or Gawain, they must show their top performance and even need some risks or some luck. Only then can we break the balance of confrontation—

Just like Gao Wen's fight on the break point, it was precisely because of the risk that he wandered around the sideline, and the space on the entire court was utilized to the extreme.

Now when we come to this round, the situation is still the same, and there is no essential change.

The air became slightly tense.

Then.

"ah!"

The o2 stadium erupted, like a volcano. The entire stadium shook, from the audience seats to the commentary booth to the live broadcast room, all without exception. The energy erupted from cheers and jumping shook the ground forcefully, and it was like a trance. , the whole world began to shake.

Boom, boom boom boom—

There was a roar!

Break points appeared, again and again.

In this game, the anxiety continued.

Nadal had missed two break points and saved two more match points. He once again showed his **** of war style, and finally won the winning point with an iconic forehand attack, winning the game for the third time on Gawain's serve. Break point.

Tension, excitement, stalemate, not giving in.

The game continues.

At this time, whether it is Gawain or Nadal, both players are improving their condition, highly focused, and no longer have any reservations or hesitations -

Give it your all.

This is true every round.

Gawain let out a long breath, not because he was nervous, but because he needed to adjust his breathing.

The confrontation is becoming more and more fierce and tense, and every point requires all-out efforts, no matter how long or short the number of shots, it is like walking on a tightrope.

"40:Ad".

Second District.

Facing break point again.

Gawain, serve—

outer corner.

Indeed, when facing Nadal, the tactical routine of the outside corner of the second area is not often used. After all, this outside corner is facing Nadal's forehand, which has little advantage. Instead, it may be overspinned by Nadal's forehand. If it is caught and the serve is returned to AcE, then the gain outweighs the loss.

However, there are no bad tactics, only right tactics.

When to choose which tactic is crucial.

At this time, on the third break point, Gao Wen chose an outside corner, which Nadal did not expect.

With one lateral step, Nadal's body was pulled out of the singles line, and he pulled up the tennis ball with his forehand like he was trying to catch the moon from the sea.

Just before taking the shot, Nadal realized that Gao Wen's serve had chosen to reduce the force. On the one hand, it did not allow Nadal to use the force, and on the other hand, it reduced the bounce of the tennis ball, so that when Nadal's steps were in place, his forehand Topspin must be pulled, and it is far more topspin than expected.

In a hurry, Nadal had no time to adjust his gestures, and his forehand had completely pulled up the parabola of the tennis ball.

The return of the ball was completed smoothly, but the high parabola was obviously not deep enough. You can tell at a glance -

Oops.

This is equivalent to feeding the ball. Nadal knows that Gao Wen will not miss the opportunity to attack the bottom line.

In fact, Gawain did not miss it.
