Match Point

Chapter 908: Weird

The third set, began.

Gao Wen took the lead to serve.

Who would have thought that in the match between Gao Wen and Murray, the first two sets were actually tie-breaks, and the number of breaks could be counted on one's fingers.

Similarly, entering the third set, the score remained stalemate, all the way to "3:3", exactly the same as the first two sets.

However, the situation is slightly different.

In any case, the game has entered the third set, and it has lasted for two hours and nine minutes so far. Such a long and torturous game is a severe test for the physical fitness of the two players. With the emergence of extreme physical strength and Fluctuations, the quality of the game will inevitably fluctuate.

The break in the second set was because of this.

The third set was no exception.

In the first six rounds, Murray got a total of four break points, but unfortunately, none of them were able to cash in. At critical moments, Gao Wen was always able to show his best form.

Conversely, Gao Wen only got one break point, and also failed to break serve.

From this point of view, Gao Wen's serve was even more unstable, facing crisis all the time; while Murray continued his winning momentum in the second set, advancing the game steadily.

If things go on like this, it seems that it is only a matter of time before Murray breaks Gao Wen's serve and ushers in the lead.

Rod Laver Stadium, full of life.

The Australian fans seemed to come back to life. After sweeping away the depression and depression of the second set, they became more excited and excited, bursting out with unprecedented energy. This is completely swallowed up.

The momentum is monstrous!

And it is still rising steadily, with no end in sight, and the emotions that have been suppressed for a full eleven days seem to be finally released for a short time tonight.

As a bystander, the commentators in the live broadcast room were able to catch the changes in the game situation immediately, and Zhang Sheng was no exception.

"...the game, it's a bit strange now."

"Gao Wen seems to be facing some physical problems. It should be that his physical strength has reached its peak, so when he hits the ball, he has been making changes and trying."

"In the first two sets, Gao Wen and Murray's long rounds of tug-of-war on the bottom line were very exciting, and the offensive and defensive transitions were throughout. But now, Gao Wen seems to be impatient, and it must be affected by physical strength, so Gao Wen was forced to change his tactics. Adjust the rhythm and adjust the tactics to break the balance of the round."

"Just look at the game time. The third set lasted six rounds, and it took less than 20 minutes. It wasn't that the game progressed faster, but that the number of rounds decreased."

"But the really strange thing is that Murray didn't seize the opportunity and broke serve first to take the lead, so the game remained stalemate."

In fact, Zhang Sheng had another bold idea, but he didn't dare to say it because it was too shocking.

Gao Wen at this moment reminded him of Gao Wen's state at the beginning of the competition.

Not specifically referring to the beginning of today's match against Murray, but the beginning of Gao Wen's match against his opponent for the first time:

test. try. explore.

Gao Wen is a player who is good at thinking and planning.

In the trial stage at the beginning of the game, other players often cut into the game according to their own customary routines, and then adapt to the situation, because this is their own style.

But Gao Wen is different. At the beginning of the game, he often makes some bold attempts, and makes different permutations and combinations based on the routines he is used to, and even actively breaks the opponent's routines, forcing the opponent to make an emergency choice. Slowly build your own game tactics.

It's like trial and error.

Through trial and error, select samples, then analyze, organize, output, and finally find the correct solution—

Math problems are sometimes done like this.

Gao Wen at the opening stage of the third set gave Zhang Sheng such a feeling, so the tug-of-war of rounds could not be held.

Especially at the end of the second set, Zhang Sheng saw the smile on the corner of Gao Wen's mouth, and the fighting spirit in Gao Wen's eyes. All the signs indicated that Gao Wen was not affected by the tiebreaker in the second set, and he had already done well. Ready to launch a counterattack in the third set, so why did the third set end like this?

Things don't make sense.

There are a series of question marks in Zhang Sheng's mind, is this reasonable?

but-

Zhang Sheng quickly dismissed this idea, because this was the third set, not the first. Why did Gao Wen choose the beginning of the third set to try and make mistakes?

Obviously, after two hours of intense fighting, the two players have a very deep understanding of each other's status, so there is no need to do anything extra.

From all aspects, extreme physical strength should be a more reasonable, normal and simpler explanation.

Zhang Sheng exhaled lightly, threw out the thoughts in his mind, and returned his attention to the game.

If Murray knew Zhang Sheng's thoughts, then he would choose to high-five to celebrate: I think the same as you.

Although the authorities were in the dark and the bystanders were clear, Murray himself was in the game, and he could most directly feel the change in Gao Wen's tactical choice.

Murray is also a player who is good at thinking. He is also analyzing, judging and considering. However, because the game has been advancing, he has no way to calm down and sort out his thoughts. After a short calculation, he also and Like Zhang Sheng, he came to the same conclusion:

Extreme physical strength.

Don't talk about Gao Wen, in fact, Murray himself is also facing extreme physical strength.

The two-set consumption of this game was even more serious than the four-set match against Dimitrov. After all, the style of play, intensity, etc. are different.

But Murray also knows that the third set is the strategic commanding heights, whoever can grab the victory will be able to seize the opportunity, while the loser will be pushed to the cliff.

Therefore, he must grit his teeth and maintain his competitiveness in the third set, especially the opening stage, which is crucial to continue the victorious momentum of the second set.

It is precisely because of this that Murray has been suppressing and adjusting—

For young players, it may be unbelievable to suppress the extreme physical strength; but for senior veterans, it is not so unusual.

The most important thing is to rationally allocate the remaining physical strength. It is not to exert force for every shot, but to learn to control, learn to allocate, and learn to use it reasonably.

Through the tactical layout and the control of spiritual will, you can slightly improve your state in a short period of time, suppress the extreme physical strength, and don't be discouraged.

Murray has been doing this since the start of the third set, and if he can break serve first, the whole game will be different:

pity.

A little bit, every time a little bit, and the four break points were not able to be fulfilled, which also made Murray very annoyed. He couldn't help clasping his hands together, looking up at the sky, and muttering.

No, I missed another one, the fifth one.

Then, Gao Wen escaped again and successfully kept his serve, "4:3", relying on the advantage of serving first, he always maintained the lead in this set.

Here, Murray grumbled and complained, expressing strong dissatisfaction, as if he just missed the whole world.

In that room, Gao Wenyun was calm and breezy, and he didn't seem to be affected in any way.
