The latest website: Although the balance in his heart is tilting towards Gao Wen crazily, Hu Litao still has to maintain an objective and professional standpoint and give commentary to the audience.
On Isner's side, they are still playing powerful shots, and the serve is still the core of the entire tactical system.
So, what about Gao Wen?
"Gao Wen's side is always thinking of a way. It can be seen that his mentality is well placed: I am here to challenge you and challenge you. It doesn't matter if I take risks and fail. I must dare to strike."
"It is precisely because of this that Gao Wen missed some opportunities, and some choices were too risky, and the degree of control is questionable, but I think Gao Wen's ideas are correct, and he should implement them."
"Facing a player like Isner who has an obvious serve advantage, if you don't dare to take risks, then in the tie-break, the pressure will rise staggered along with the score, but now, we still need to watch the performance on the spot, Let's see if Gao Wen can really fight his way out."
Hu Litao's point of view was endorsed by Zhan Jun.
"Now let's see, Gao Wen's adventurous attack and Isner's solid advantage, who can bring enough pressure to the other side, and who may be the first to make mistakes."
In the tie-break, the small score came after "6:6", which also means that after every point there is an inventory, either Gao Wen's inventory or Isner's inventory, like a high-altitude rope, always There is always the danger of falling into the abyss, no matter what, there is a player who needs to face the inventory, and the pressure cannot be expressed in words.
In the previous point, Gao Wen saved a set point with his excellent serve and attack, growing under the tempering of pressure.
After the exchange of venues, the two players stood on the bottom line again.
In this point, Isner launched a powerful attack, and he was very aggressive from the first shot of receiving the serve.
It can be seen that Isner is also trying to break the deadlock and take the tie-break in his own hands, but as Hu Litao said, entering the third set, the forehand, which suffered continuous strong attacks, was still somewhat soft , the offensive power was slightly insufficient, and Gawain blocked all three consecutive attacks with his beautiful defense.
Moreover, the quality of the defensive return is very high, putting more pressure on Isner's offense.
Then, he hit the ball on the fourth shot. In fact, the opportunity to attack was not good, but Isner still forced it, and the ball returned directly to the net.
"oh!"
The audience hugged their heads and let out exclamations.
Zhan Jun clenched his fists and cheered.
"pretty!"
"Gauvin's defense is really beautiful. Isner's tenacious running and high-quality return made Isner very uncomfortable. The swing of the last shot was obviously squeezed, and he forced the attack but ate a backspin ball. , return the ball to the net."
"After Gao Wen saved his two serve points, now Gao Wen got the first set point in the third set."
"Next is Isner's serve."
The entire Arthur Ashe Stadium was completely silent, because the third set was so anxious and tense that it made people feel a little hypoxic, but the game was so exciting and beautiful that they couldn't take their eyes away. Just staring at the court intently, my heart is almost about to burst.
Isner is picking the ball.
It can be seen that Isner is consciously controlling the rhythm of the game.
On the one hand, attacking with four consecutive shots just now is very exhausting; on the other hand, the stalemate in the tie-break has not been broken, which also means that he needs to think more carefully about every serve point.
This is also experience, use the time of picking the ball to adjust your breathing and organize your thoughts.
And what about Gao Wen?
He had already stood on the opposite side of the court, getting ready, watching Isner quietly, as if he had no idea, but in fact, he was thinking in his mind:
This is the second zone, how will Isner serve?
In the second zone, Gao Wen's forehand is an inside corner, and his backhand is an outside corner. So far, in the three games, Isner has made different placements, but what about the critical moment?
Gawain's mind was running at high speed, and Isner's adjustment time was also his thinking time, so he was not in a hurry at all.
Isner turned to serve.
Gawain noticed Isner observing his position, could it be... preparing to make a counterattack?
Although Gao Wen's two-handed backhand is stable enough, it is actually difficult to make changes in the face of Isner's powerful serve, because the quality of the ball is really too heavy, as long as he can catch the serve, he is lucky; and , The outer corner of the second zone suppresses the backhand. This is a classic routine that all players know. Use the serve to pull the receiver out of the sideline. The entire court is empty, and you can do whatever you want for the next shot.
Wait, or is it a close serve?
Generally speaking, players who like bottom line **** tend to combine more close balls, such as Nadal, Djokovic, etc. For an open-angle serve, Isner obviously belongs to the latter.
In his game, there are of course close balls, but the proportion is not high.
In the blink of an eye, thoughts completely surged in my mind.
Snapped. Snapped.
Isner was hitting the ball, while Gawain bent his knees, bowed and swayed, watching Isner's serve through the creamy sunlight—
Outer corner!
tread!
Gao Wen made a pre-judgment and started his steps ahead of time. The more critical the moment, the more courageous it is.
tread!
Gao Wen took a big step, but immediately realized that there was a deviation in his inventory:
Press the backhand close!
Isner chose a rare close-up serve, which was flat and fast, and immediately pushed Gawain into a narrow trap.
Oops!
The footsteps are rushing forward, and the tennis ball has already flown over, and it is about to hit his body straight, which is commonly known as "overrunning".
what to do?
In an instant, his footsteps came to an emergency stop, and his upper body made a backward movement. His flexible waist made him look like a tumbler dodging backwards, comparable to the actor in "The Matrix" who leaned back to avoid bullets. There is no room to swing the racket, so I can only stand up the racket and block it.
boom!
The tennis ball hits the racket like this~www.mtlnovel.com~ There is no swing or wrist control, it is the simplest and most basic first move, even a child who has just learned tennis can complete the movement, but it looks simple, In fact, Gawain's waist, arms and thighs were tense to the extreme.
One bump and one bomb.
The whole powerful force came head-on and was about to "destroy" the racket, but Gawain managed to control the racket and the surface of the racket.
He held his breath for an instant, and the brain's control over the body reached its limit.
boom!
The tennis ball is like hitting a wall, and it bounces back directly. Basically, it goes straight and there is no control at all, but at least the control of the surface of the racket still ensures the flight trajectory of the return ball. It does not leave the court, but is still controlled within two within the borderline.
Whoosh!
