"Match Point(
The third set, "0:3", followed by Djokovic's serve in an attempt to further expand the score.
call…
Gao Wen let out a long breath. In fact, his physical strength was almost over. Djokovic's impenetrable shot really made him very uncomfortable, as if he was thrown into a dryer. The whole rhythm and state were very bad. .
Even though his extreme physical strength has passed now, his hand feeling has not been recovered for a long time.
He needs a little time, and a little patience.
However, since most of them were behind in the third set, there was no need for him to carry the burden, one game at a time, one point at one point, anyway, he was familiar with the position of the chaser and the challenger.
Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.
Djokovic is hitting the ball, this time it doesn't last too long, and soon starts tossing the ball.
Gao Wen's gaze was fixed on the rising tennis ball, which was spinning in the golden sunlight, and then his lightly tiptoed footsteps were already moving towards his forehand position.
One zone, close forehand.
Djokovic is a typical bottom-line player. In his serve tactical combination, close serve has always been a very important component.
Djokovic's next attack after serving is not sharp enough to break the game, so the main purpose of his serve is not to create opportunities for his connecting attack, but to create an advantage for himself to suppress and control the bottom line.
Therefore, forming suppression through close serving can not only increase the success rate of the first serve and create a sense of oppression; it can also complete the layout according to one's own intention.
Moreover, Djokovic's close serve is very characteristic. Ordinary players keep the tennis ball as close to the body as possible to force the opponent to not swing the racket completely; but he often opens a little distance to allow the opponent to move and complete the catch. However, every time the landing point changes slightly, it is difficult for the opponent to find a familiar hitting point, and it needs to be adjusted every time.
That's the problem, the reaction time of receiving and returning the serve is not much, and then it needs to be adjusted every time, so it is very annoying.
It can be said that it is not difficult to return Djokovic's serve, but it is not easy to return the quality.
Especially when the physical strength is declining and the hand feels cold, it is even more troublesome.
At this time, Djokovic served in the same way.
But Gao Wen has gradually regained his focus, and his small steps are very resolute. The forehand did not make a wide range of shots, but relied on the swing of the forearm to borrow strength in a narrow space, and also avoided the forehand swing. resulting in instability.
tread. tread.
Squeeze and push.
Gao Wen had already pushed the tennis ball back.
The quality is so-so, returning to the middle of the court, but at least the landing point is slightly deeper, and it is guaranteed to be within bounds.
Djokovic quickly adjusted his footsteps, grabbed a rising point with his forehand, and took a slash to attack diagonally, instantly driving the rhythm between pats.
However, they are also grabbing the rising point. The difference between Djokovic and Kei Nishikori lies in the flight trajectory after landing and rebounding. Spin to ensure your own control of the landing point.
At this time, Djokovic is going to a dead corner of the bottom line triangle.
Although Gao Wen's footsteps were in the forehand position, Djokovic's return ball landed deep and tricky, and the rebound after landing was very fast. When Gao Wen's footsteps refused to retreat, there was no room for returning the ball how much.
At the same time, the difficulty of hitting the bouncing ball and rising point has also increased significantly.
Tread.
Gao Wen adjusted his steps in small steps continuously and led the shot early. It seemed that he was ready to fully exert his strength. This immediately sounded the alarm for Djokovic, and he adjusted his steps immediately.
However!
Just before the shot, Gao Wen changed the way of holding the racket, from slamming the ball to cutting, and used a forehand to cut a small ball in front of the net. The most important thing is that the unloading force was very light.
Whoosh.
It turned out to be a small ball in front of the net!
Djokovic didn't expect it at all, and started immediately after he paused and kicked his feet, but the center of gravity moved a little hastily, and the kicking action was not solid and slipped a bit.
Then, the opportunity has been missed.
In fact, the quality of Gao Wen's small ball this time is mediocre. It can be seen that he still lacks confidence in his own skills, and now the hand feels mediocre, and he dare not pursue the ultimate, so the distance and height of the small ball are a bit too high.
But Gao Wenming knew that his hand feeling had not fully recovered, and his tactical execution was still very firm, so he killed Djokovic by surprise.
"0:15".
Little surprise!
Moreover, more importantly than scoring, this point did not form a tug-of-war, and the game was resolved quickly, which surprised Djokovic.
There was good applause at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, because Djokovic is currently far ahead, especially in the third set, so the fans are more relaxed, and even Gao Wen's score is not too concerned, They were even willing to give Gao Wen some applause.
But soon, the atmosphere became slightly tense.
One point, Djokovic made an unforced error in the forehand attack and went directly off the net.
After one point, Gao Wen succeeded in a straight backhand attack after a small seesaw.
"0:40".
In a blink of an eye, Gao Wen won three consecutive break points in Djokovic's serve.
Zhan Jun and Hu Litao exchanged glances, and both of them were aware of the change in the atmosphere.
It's not about how well Gao Wen played this round, but after Djokovic broke Gao Wen's last serve ~www.mtlnovel.com~ In fact, this round's concentration dropped a bit, and his shots Too rough, these three points are the result of the overall judgment and layout not being careful enough.
Is this because Djokovic has a relatively large lead and is slightly relaxed, or is it because Djokovic finally appeared at the extreme of physical strength after working hard with all his strength?
Or is it both?
But no matter what, the three points in this game fell a little fast, which is obviously not the situation that Djokovic wants to see.
Then-
Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.
Djokovic started to shoot the ball, delaying the time and slowing down the rhythm by shooting the ball tactically, in order to disrupt Gao Wen's rhythm, and also to organize his thoughts.
Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.
It was obviously a long time to shoot the ball this time, and it is impossible to know whether Gao Wen lost his concentration, but it is certain that Djokovic himself was a little distracted, because——
Send it off the net.
Then continue to shoot the ball on the second serve.
Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.
It took a long time to shoot the ball, almost to the end of time, but Gawain's attention did not wander away. Instead, he followed Djokovic's shooting rhythm and slowly adjusted his breathing, concentrating bit by bit. get together.
finally!
When the entire court was almost out of breath, Djokovic finally took the ball, but the interval between the first serve and the second serve was a bit long, and as a result, Djokovic’s own serving rhythm was also disrupted. , the second serve was obviously conservative.
Second serve, outside corner!
However, the angle is not torn apart, and it falls in an unembarrassing position. Coupled with the slow speed of the ball, the tactical intention of the entire serve is not clear enough.
Kick off! Forward! Quote!
Kicking the ground with his calf, one step and one dash forward, Gao Wen has already jumped out, aiming at the spinning and flying tennis ball with his eyes burning.
