incredible!
Incomparable!
From "1:6" to "7:5", the strong match that the audience was eagerly awaiting was finally staged. Gao Wen's "dark horse quality" once again shined in the audience, proving to everyone with practical actions that the victory in the first three games is absolute. It wasn't just a fluke, and Louis Armstrong's atmosphere was pushed to the top.
So, can fans look forward to a classic?
The answer is yes.
After the first two sets were tied, the third set became a tactical fortress. Both players had to win this set and seize the commanding heights at the tactical level; Physical strength is facing severe tests—
Wawrinka is older and seems to have been out of shape in the North American season, but the last round benefited from the opponent's pre-match retirement, and he was recharging his energy and waiting for this game.
In Gao Wen's words, he is younger and more energetic. Before the start of the US Open, he involuntarily rested for two more weeks, but the first three games were all hard-fought. At present, the total time spent in the game is among the best among the top 16 players.
Therefore, as the game progresses, the uncertainty brought about by physical impact will play an increasingly important role.
And it turns out so.
In the third set, the state of both sides declined to varying degrees. The opening stage turned into a breakout battle. First, Wawrinka broke Gawain's serve, and Gawain immediately returned to break Wawrinka's serve; He broke the opponent again, and exchanged another serve game. The whole back-and-forth game seemed very tense and exciting.
In fact, in terms of the intensity and excitement of the round, the third set was not as good as the second set, but because of the continuous occurrence of breaks and reverse breaks, the score was never able to be opened, so the tension was higher than that of the second set. The disk has been upgraded to a higher level.
In the end, it was Wawrinka, the new Australian Open champion, who used his backhand to withstand Gawain's changing impacts at the critical moment and launched a counterattack. At the end of the game, he broke Gawain's serve for the third time and won the serve in one go. Win the game and pocket the victory of the third set.
"4:6".
Wawrinka once again surpassed the score by a large margin, occupying the tactical commanding heights, and successfully seized the opportunity in this matchup for the top eight seats in the US Open.
At the end of the game, Wawrinka won three rounds in a row, first securing, then breaking, and then securing again, showing the background of the third seed and directly pushing Gao Wen to the edge of the cliff.
Gao Wen was very dissatisfied with his performance.
On the one hand, the decline in physical strength caused his batting to fluctuate significantly, and while the number of mistakes increased and he actively sent points, the restrictions on Wawrinka also loosened, and he failed to bite the game.
On the other hand, Wawrinka once again showed the "God moment" at a critical moment. The incredible backhand really made people feel powerless. Winning points, the thickness of the entire strength is vividly displayed.
But Gao Wen thinks he can do better, and has learned a lot from Wawrinka's performance. Compared with talking about it on paper, actual combat is the best way to accumulate experience.
In the fourth set, the two sides went through extreme physical strength one after another, and the overall performance improved somewhat, but after all, it was different from the first set and the second set, and the confrontation intensity was still slightly weaker.
At this time, Gao Wen showed his composure and composure. He was not affected by the loss in the third set at all. He steadily readjusted his tactics, which really made Wawrinka very awkward, constantly disrupting Wawrinka's batting rhythm, and Change **** began to increase significantly—
Chip, spin, ball, lob.
Gao Wen's advantages in the tactical system shined brightly after his relatively weak physical strength. The two sides stalemate all the way to "6:6". The air visibly tensed—
After all, Wawrinka leads by a big score, and there are many uncertainties in the tie-break. It is very likely that Wawrinka will be able to get the match point and win in one go.
However, the progress of the tie-break was astonishing. Gao Wen, who stood on the edge of elimination, showed a big heart. The small score "7:2" wins.
Especially in the inventory, Gao Wen used the iconic backhand straight line to form the winning point, did not give Wawrinka a chance, and simply won the fourth set neatly, successfully winning a tsunami of applause at the Louis Armstrong Stadium.
"2:2".
Gao Wen successfully equalized the big score, which also means that the two players are about to enter the final set.
Although Gao Wen defeated Burley in the final set in the second round to advance, but in fact, in the fifth set, Burley was obviously limited by his physical strength and lacked competitiveness. Gao Wen easily won with a score of "6:2". Didn't stand a really serious test.
But Wawrinka in front of him is different.
At the Australian Open at the beginning of the year, Djokovic played against Djokovic in the quarter-finals. The two sides also drew in the first four sets. The winner must be decided through the deciding set. However, the Australian Open still maintains the rule of the long game, that is, the game points " After a 6:6" tie, it is not a tie-break, but one side must win two games in a row to win.
In the end, Wawrinka defeated Djokovic in the "9:7" final set. That game was indeed soul-stirring.
Now, facing Gawain, Wawrinka will naturally not disarm easily. The outcome of the final set is still full of suspense, and the entire Louis-Armstrong Stadium is boiling; moreover, at this moment, the matches in other venues have all ended~www.mtlnovel. com~Only Arthur-Ashe Stadium is waiting for the night game to kick off. Naturally, all eyes and all live signals are focused on this.
The orange-red sun all over the sky has turned into blood-red, and the whole world is dyed a colorful red, as if being on Mars.
Then, the deciding set began, with Wawrinka serving first.
In the opening stage, Wawrinka seemed to be suppressing his breath. He was very dissatisfied with the loss of the previous tie-break, and his state improved very quickly and strongly. On the contrary, Gao Wen, who had made every effort in the tie-break, was a little distracted. Then Wawrinka took the lead in three consecutive rounds in one go.
But then Gao Wen gained a firm foothold, first kept his serve, and then seized the disadvantage of Wawrinka's serve power and speed, and launched a fierce attack. He scored four straight points and succeeded in a "love-game" break. After serving the game, he chased three games in a row and returned to a tie.
After that, the two players stabilized their minds and kept their serve. The score has reached "4:4".
The audience thought that they might enter the rhythm of a breakout battle like the third set, but now it seems that it is more likely to enter the rhythm of a tie-break game like the fourth set—
The U.S. Open is the first and currently the only event in the four Grand Slams where the final set is abolished. Even if it is a final set, after a "6:6" tie, it is still a tiebreaker.
If this is the case, it will be a sweaty "gambling", comparable to the high-stakes gambling game in Las Vegas. The audience tensed up.
But will the game really be like this?
