Chapter 1656 One step ahead

call.

Murray took a calm breath and adjusted his rhythm. He was not disturbed by a mistake at all, and he was ready to continue serving.

Bend your knees, kick off, throw the ball.

Swing!

Two shots, out of the chamber.

This was a slow serve. Murray tried to find the landing point of the forehand from close body, and suppressed Gao Wen through rotation, because he knew that Gao Wen still hadn't fully grasped the bounce rules of the grass, and when the forehand was shot, he would often There are more packages, so there will be more space for his follow-up offensive connection.

Tactical intentions are very clear.

however!
This is already the countless times that Murray has executed this in a critical score. Gao Wen finally predicted accurately, grasped the tactical context of this time, and reacted a little earlier.

Just a trace.

In fact, Murray is right. Gao Wen is still figuring out the law of grass bounce. If the forehand attack is too fast, the hitting point is prone to deviation, so he is often used to increase the package to avoid unnecessary simple mistakes. But at the same time, Gao Wen has been seeking different changes.

For example, go first.

The advance movement by a tiny bit of difference won enough space for Gao Wen's retreat step, and won the space for swinging the racket through the movement of his feet.

As a result, the forehand swing is smoother and fuller, and even with the added package to ensure safety, there are more possibilities for forehand shots.

then.

With a forehand, he has already led the shot.

The cross step is still retreating. In order to get an accurate hitting point, the whole person rises into the air, the height is limited, but the body is still free from the shackles of gravity, the feet are off the ground, the body is leaning back, one turn, one push , the forehand has already been pushed out violently with the force of the crossed legs in the air.

"what!"

work hard.

attack.

At the same time, lean back, turn sideways, turn your forearm outward, and swing the whip with your wrist.

"what!"

Power, burst.

Sideways forehand slash!

Gao Wen, when facing the second serve, chose to take a risky attempt, a bold and crazy choice, trying to break the stalemate in this round.

Failed?
Then go back to deuce and start over.

"Ugh!"

The tennis ball, compressed to the extreme by the solid and turbulent force, turned into a light and shadow, and quickly jumped out along the diagonal line——

Fast and urgent, rush and heavy.

By hitting the wall, the tennis ball was sent back the same way.

call out.

The tennis ball fell into Murray's left service area, rebounded, flew, tore the angle, and rushed out with a hunting wind.

Ahead—

Murray has taken off into the air, extending his body to the extreme in a diving posture, switching from a two-handed backhand to a one-handed backhand in an attempt to extend coverage.

White, green, and purple collide in the crystal clear gold, which is clear and clean, and outlines the tranquility of early summer in the breeze.

Before he could blink, the tennis ball broke free, broke through the cover, and shot out directly in front of the end of Murray's racket.

Wind, there is only wind in the world ahead, open your arms and embrace freedom.

Returning aces.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Gawain was breathing heavily, and the burning blood was bubbling in his mind.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Murray was also breathing heavily. After staggering and maintaining his pace, he didn't roar or growl. Instead, he looked up at the sky with a disappointed face, and raised his hand to press down the brim of his hat to cover up his disappointment and regret. The depression emanating from the top and bottom cannot be concealed at all.

Whoosh, whoosh.

The entire audience was breathing heavily, the tension, the excitement, the anxiety burning in everyone's blood vessels, they couldn't breathe at all and forgot to breathe, until now they felt the energy of the heart burst and finally breathed again, The surging emotions detonated the mountains and tsunami.

——Gao Wen, it's broken.

"Unbelievable!"

"This, this is simply unbelievable."

After all, Xu Yang was not able to continue his usual calmness and stability, his mind roared, exclamation and excitement crackled like this.

"In the final set, Gao Wen took the lead to break serve!"

"In the nearly 10-minute round, Gao Wen finally seized the fourth break point, cashed in an ACE return and ushered in the lead."

"Friends in the audience, this is the first time that Gao Wen has taken the lead in the whole game."

"Hey!"

Realizing this, all the voice behind Xu Yang disappeared deep in his throat, his eyes were full of admiration and astonishment, and he couldn't calm down at all.

Murray's disappointment and depression stemmed from the fact that he failed to withstand the impact of Gao Wen after all, and lost his serve at the beginning of the final set; it also came from the way he encountered the break, first losing the third game point with a mistake, and then The ball was accurately caught by the opponent just now——

bad.

In fact, objectively speaking, this is a game. Players will make mistakes and make mistakes. In the contest between you and me, this is a normal situation, not only for Gao Wen and Murray, but for all players; but Murray He is strict with himself, and it is difficult for him to accept such mistakes.

The bustling thoughts filled his head in a blink of an eye, almost about to explode.

However, Murray finally regained his composure.

As the Big Four, Murray has experienced countless difficulties in his career, which naturally includes the bad situation of being the first to break serve in the final set.

Thinking about it bitterly, this is at least much easier than falling behind with a big score of "0:2" and then expecting a three-set reversal.

What he needs to do now is to adjust his mentality and tactics, and look for opportunities while recovering his physical fitness. He is tired, and Gao Wen is also tired. A burden that consumes more physical energy.

The game is not over yet.

But is it really that easy?

Don't forget, there was only one break in the first three sets, and the player who broke serve won; there was no break in the fourth set, and the tiebreaker was decided in the end; The impact is magnified, but it is still not so easy to break serve.

——After "30:30", Gao Wen scored two points in a row. After breaking Murray's serve, he successfully kept the serve and fulfilled the advantage of breaking serve first.

"3:0".

From the point of view of the score, it seems that there is no suspense in the final set, and the gap was opened immediately; and, it continued all the way.

Returning from the break, Murray managed to hold his serve, not facing a break point this time despite a test of deuce.

It can be clearly seen that Gao Wen must also adjust his tactics and distribute his physical energy. It is impossible to do his best every game, so the intensity of the see-saw is reduced a little. The experienced Murray keenly seized the opportunity. , It is still very stable and very solid to complete the guarantee.

The line of sight returned to Gao Wen's side.

Save energy in Murray's serve, simply try it out, if you have the opportunity, go further, if not, don't force it, this also allows Gao Wen to put more focus and energy on his serve, playing stable and efficient Excellent, as long as he can keep his serve steadily, then as the game progresses, Murray's pressure will become greater and greater.

Perhaps Gao Wen could find an opportunity in Murray's serve to further expand his advantage?
