Chapter 491: on the edge of the cliff

crack.

The tennis ball brushed the net, and then stopped on the net belt like a dragonfly. It paused for a while, as if the whole world was frozen, and then rolled forward in the next second, and landed on the court next to Gawain. Any bouncing, straight up and down, rolled towards Gawain like this.

Lucky net.

"ah!"

Cilic clenched his fists and let out an unbelievable roar. Like a roaring lion, he fixed his eyes on Gao Wen on the opposite side of the field with bright eyes.

"Ahhh!"

A steady stream of roars swept towards Gao Wen over and over again, declaring his determination and belief with a tough stance—

This final is far from over.

The trend of the third set was a little bit unexpected. Physical factors disrupted the situation and broke the balance. This also caused fluctuations in the performance of the two players to varying degrees.

It was still Gao Wen who broke serve first.

Although this set started with Cilic's serve, in the third game it was Gao Wen who took the opportunity of Cilic's consecutive failure to break the deadlock and took the lead of "2:1". Qi pushed to the edge of the cliff, as long as Gao Wen can keep his serve, the championship trophy is already beckoning.

But in the desperate situation, Cilic unloaded the burden and launched a Jedi counterattack. His performance of concentration and desperation once again saw the sturdy state of the semi-finals. Every point, whether it was his own winning point or Gao Wen's mistake, Cilic Qidu continued to cheer for himself, shouting with his voice, and his momentum and energy seemed to be finally released.

Cilic then succeeded in breaking serve, breaking Gawain's serve for the first time in the game, and the score in the third set was back to a tie.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Wen broke serve again, but then Cilic broke serve again. He broke serve in all four consecutive rounds, but the score remained even.

Such a situation is very common in women's games, but it is rare in men's games. The main reason is that extreme physical strength becomes an interfering factor. Coupled with the special stage of the Grand Slam final, the two rookies are in a desperate situation in the third set and continue to tap their energy. State, so they exchanged serve twice.

The chaos in the middle of the third set was full of ups and downs. Both players were clenching their teeth and fighting hard, but after getting through their physical strength, they gradually returned to calm. Facing some challenges, but still did not enter the rhythm of the breakout.

Then-

"5:4".

After retaining his serve for the second time in a row, Cilic took advantage of serving first in the third set to take the lead before coming to Gawain's serve.

This round was also commonly known as the "must serve serve", because once Gao Wen was broken, the third set would be lost directly, and the game had entered the most intense and exciting moment.

However, the worst and most extreme situation appeared. If Cilic had a miracle, he won three points in a row, "0:40", Cilic got three break points and three set points, and it was a continuous situation.

In fact, Gao Wen was also a little bit unlucky—

With one point, Cilic made a forehand attack in a straight line to break Gao Wen's prediction, pressing the ball on the outside third of the sideline to form the winning point.

One point, Gao Wen's forehand was slightly longer than the bottom line, judging by Hawkeye's challenge, it was only two millimeters out of bounds.

With one point, Cilic's lucky ball landed in Gao Wen's court, going straight up and down, without giving Gao Wen a second chance to start.

It's a bit unlucky, if any of the points are favored by the goddess of luck, the game will be different, but this is tennis. Like table tennis, the error tolerance rate of each serve game is actually not high.

At the end of the second set, Gao Wen seized the luck of a net sweep and pocketed the entire set victory; now in the third set, Lady Luck is on Cilic's side, and Cilic won three consecutive sets .

From that point of view, it's fair.

However, Gawain was not prepared to surrender. valley

Looking up to the other side of the court, Cilic was still roaring in celebration, and the tense muscles could feel the high fighting spirit emanating from his whole body.

In fact, according to the basic tennis etiquette, if there is an unexpected situation where the net is wiped or the ball accidentally hits the opponent, it is necessary to raise your hand to express an apology and show a good demeanor of fair competition-the same is true for table tennis. The situation is too special.

But at this time, Cilic was already a bit jealous, standing on the edge of the cliff, recklessly counterattacking, even Gao Wen's mistake was also celebrated, not to mention wiping the net, the fighting spirit of victory had already occupied his mind.

There was a low booing from the Arthur Ashe Stadium, obviously dissatisfied with Cilic's performance of celebrating the net wipe, but Cilic really didn't have the mind to pay attention to it at this time, because his game was already at stake, he had to catch Take advantage of every opportunity and fight to the end. As long as you can score, everything is worth celebrating.

Literally, red-eyed.

Gao Wen let out a long breath, trying to calm himself down.

In such a situation, such a situation and such a moment, a net was wiped, and then three consecutive break points and inventory were sent, while the physical and energy consumption continued to burn. This is indeed a blow, and it is inevitable to be a little frustrated.

Gao Wen didn't immediately prepare for the next point, but turned around and walked towards the ball boy on the baseline.

The caddy thought that Gawain wanted a ball or a towel to wipe his sweat, and offered to provide the service, but unexpectedly, Gawain walked to the baseline with his shoulders on the caddy, and then the two of them leaned against the baseline barrier, and Gawain even lifted a With one foot propped back against the fender, as if shooting a fashion poster, the two of them just—

Let's talk.

"I'm very sad, why did you wipe the net?"

"Hey, I've made all the preparations, but I just wiped the net."

"Do you think Lady Luck has a problem with me?"

The caddy was stunned, looking at Gao Wen who was full of frustration and sadness, and nodded in a daze, but the audience at the Arthur-Ashe Stadium saw Gao Wen's performance, and there was a little mischief in the small prank. Self-deprecating and mischievous, that pitiful expression was even more joyful, making the entire audience burst into laughter in an instant.

Hahaha!

Even the commentators were dumbfounded. They couldn't believe it. At this moment, Gao Wen was so thoughtful and leisurely joking that they couldn't help but burst out laughing. This should be another classic moment of this year's US Open!

Cilic was also dumbfounded.

One second before, Cilic's aura was still rising; the next second ~lightnovelpub.net~ the audience laughed so hard that Cilic felt like a fool.

The entire Arthur-Ashe stadium was full of cheerful laughter, and the tense atmosphere disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Then you can see Gao Wen gently patted the caddy on the shoulder and said with a smile on his face.

"Thank you for being willing to talk with me. Next, we still have a battle that is not over."

After finishing speaking, Gao Wen walked to the bottom line again, slapped the tennis ball all the way, looked up at Cilic, waited for Cilic to be ready, and then directly prepared to serve.

Throw the ball! Kick off! Turn! swing!

hit the ball!

Inside corner ACE!

Wow!

moment! There was thunderous applause from the audience, and the mighty whistle and cheers poured down, like a summer rainstorm.
