Match point

Chapter 1662
It is defense, but also offense. The speed of offensive and defensive transitions is getting faster and tighter. This is the development trend of the entire tennis trend of the ATP.

In the most critical score confrontation in this round, the two players Murray and Gao Wen showed this trend to the fullest. Similarly, this point once again pushed to a new climax.

Both players were focused, gave their all, and lost themselves in the game.

In this car, Gao Wen's hard brakes were not able to step on the ground, the soles of his feet slipped slightly, and he was about to fall.

heh!
At the scene, there was an exclamation.

On the other side, Murray also made an emergency brake. After realizing Gao Wen's way of returning the ball, Murray's footsteps continued to hit the net, and he started the second time with a pause. While observing, the sense of crisis seized his heart in an instant.

Turn enough, deep enough.

Gao Wen's lob shot showed solid basic skills, and was not affected by fake moves at all. He pulled out a full parabola, which not only ensured that he could pass Murray's head, but also ensured the depth, forcing Murray's footsteps to be unstoppable. Don't keep rushing all the way to the bottom line.

Stopping and turning quickly, starting the second time, and even starting the third time, Murray also showed his basic skills without reservation.

"what."

With a roar, Murray picked up his speed again, stepped on his scud back to the baseline, made a 180-degree clockwise turn, and completed his swing in the direction of the turn. Move to spin and hit the ball, all in one go.

At this moment, there was no time to observe Gao Wen's position. Murray had to make a judgment based on his own situation, and the collision of strength and strength broke out.

"what!"

Roaring again, this time with full strength, the backhand pushed the tennis ball back in a straight line.

Waiting for Murray to turn around, he could see Gawain continuously dilated in his pupils at a glance——

This time, it was Gao Wen's turn to go online.

You come and I go, you go down and I go up.

Although his footsteps were a bit slippery, Gao Wen supported his body with the racket, and he didn't care about adjusting his center of gravity. When he kicked his feet, the racket supported the ground and exerted force, and his body stood up again. He could clearly feel the surge of power on his toes and soles. Quick adjustments in a series of small steps.

Followed by.

Going forward at full speed, the adjustment has been completed quickly while being wobbly, and the center of gravity has been restored to balance.

As soon as his footsteps stopped, Gao Wen was ready to cover the front of the net.

Murray and Gao Wen are like a seesaw, pushing and squeezing back and forth between the net and the baseline. Neither of them can say that they have the upper hand but they have not lost the initiative. While staring, there was no sound.

boom!
Murray's 180-degree spin shot is solid and stable enough, but the power, spin, line, etc. are not enough, and cannot be adjusted in a hurry; and his back is facing the court, and his judgment of the court position is not very accurate, that is to say, In addition to exerting force, this beat is basically a transition.

So, Gao Wen's chance?
Not necessarily.

Gao Wen rushed to the net in a hurry, his footsteps had just adjusted, he didn't have time to judge and plan, Murray's shot had already come, he had to react immediately, relying on instinct in the turbulent sea——

Objectively speaking, Gao Wen's pre-net technique is indeed a very obvious shortcoming at present, and he still relies more on his touch to compete.

But there is a classic saying in tennis about the technique before the net, "The hands are not enough to keep up, and the feet must also keep up."

In most face-off rounds at the net, the layman tends to watch the hands, while the professional tends to watch the feet.

Gao Wen's hand skills are not problematic, but his footwork in front of the net still needs to be polished slowly.

At this time, in the panic, it can be seen that Gao Wen's horizontal movement is obviously not as good as the bottom line, and his judgment and grasp of the space position is also slightly insufficient. A horizontal stride is in place, but the position of the hitting point is too far Close to the body, the right hand holding the racket is also blocked.

Straight line, forehand, Murray's swivel shot rushed towards Gao Wen's forehand.

Even though Gao Wen stepped forward and got in place quickly, his space control was slightly off, and his forehand interception control was also lacking.

Snapped.

In the blink of an eye, the tennis ball flew back before it could be controlled.

When Gao Wen saw it, he immediately yelled that something was wrong——

The force was unloaded, but it was not completely removed. In the end, the volley line was a little longer, and it returned to the bottom line again; but at the same time, the line was not long enough. If the line was pressed, then this volley could be considered a success. Now there is still a distance from the bottom line. One step away is almost equivalent to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

This is equivalent to sending the tennis ball to Murray through a volley; moreover, the angle is not torn apart, and Murray only needs to adjust a small step to get it in place.

Oops.

Gao Wen immediately sounded the alarm, but in the ever-changing game, there is no time for hesitation and regret. He has to forget about the shot just now, adjust in small steps continuously, and at the same time keep the center of gravity light, and prepare for the next shot. The ball prepared, and then, Gawain's pupils shrank.

Murray, lob the ball.

- Mirror image.

Just now, Gao Wen used a lob to push Murray to the baseline, turning the situation around.

Now, it's Murray's turn to lob the ball.

Very unexpected, but unexpected, reasonable.

Because Gao Wen's volley in front of the net has no power, although the unloading force is not clean enough, resulting in a long return line, but the tennis itself does not have much power, so that the rebound height of the landing is limited, and Murray's desire to break through the net is also limited. There is no space to hit the ball, so he simply chose to pull the tennis ball up.

Once the lob can go over the top, Gao Wen, like Murray, must return to the bottom line, which will also become an opportunity for Murray to go online again.

The tennis ball rose high, like a full moon scimitar.

In the VIP box, Beckham held his breath. This parabola was too similar to his famous stunt. Those arcs and rotations were all too familiar.

Thousands of eyes are all focused on the trajectory of the tennis ball.

The same is true for Gao Wen.

Retreat.

Continue to retreat.

Adjust while retreating.

Gawain raised his head, adjusted his position with small steps, and searched for the tennis ball in the golden splendor.
The bright stars all over the sky are twinkling little by little, and it is the best time for the afternoon sun. There is a gorgeous galaxy lying in the blue-gray sky, and three or two white birds fly high, drawing a line of idleness on the sky. The trajectory of the arc, the eyes full of gold are enveloping behind that arc.

In the tense and suffocating game, it is rare to find a little leisure. It seems that you can press the pause button and enjoy the afternoon of Wimbledon. A cup of afternoon tea and some refreshments, green shades and white clothes, and the breeze, involuntarily shut down. Close your eyes and bask in the sun.

The sound of the time hourglass, gently blowing on the eardrums, a little itchy.

then.

found it!
The tennis ball is flying and spinning, trying to break through the blockade and embrace the blue sky.
