Return to 2002: Freestyle Superstar

Chapter 398 Similar Script

At this moment, even the CCTV host in the C5 live broadcast room also joked: "I was worried just now that Chen Ran's loss in buying football would affect the state of the game, but now it seems that my worries are unfounded."

"He got into the groove quickly and broke serve at the beginning."

In fact, speech in this era is relatively free.

A few years later, it would be difficult to talk about these topics openly in public, but now there are not so many taboos.

Break at the start!
Chen Ran didn't look too excited, he just shook hands calmly.

It seems that his psychological warfare has worked.

Chen Ran is very aware of Hewitt's characteristics. Due to height restrictions, serving has never been his strong point.

However, his skills in other aspects are very perfect, which is why Hewitt can win two Grand Slams at such a young age.

The problem is that Hewitt's style of play is really hard on the body, and his body is not as durable as Nadal. As injuries accumulate over time, they will inevitably affect the player's performance.

Chen Ran was rock solid in his serve game and also did not allow Hewitt to get any break points.

When Chen Ran maintained his first-serve success rate at such a high level, it became almost an unachievable task for Hewitt to break serve.

Although in the next four service games, Hewitt performed very well and did not allow Chen Ran to get any break points.

After being broken at the beginning, Hewitt fell into extreme passivity, and all subsequent tactical plans could not be executed smoothly.

"Damn, I was confused by this guy at first."

The second set was not so easy.

He felt that he was in very good condition today, but Chen Ran, who seemed depressed in the first game, suddenly launched a fierce offensive, catching him off guard.

As many people expected in advance, when Chen Ran broke serve at the beginning, there was almost no suspense in the first set.

During the break, Chen Ran slowly took a few sips of water.

6 is better than 4!

Grass, due to the softness and comfort of the surface, will put less physical strain on players than hard surfaces.

Chen Ran was able to successfully win the game thanks to his sudden effort at the beginning and the break of serve.

The first set was actually a tough one overall.

But he was still unable to break through Chen Ran.

As expected, Hewitt's grass was strong.

Because as long as the breakback cannot be completed, everything is meaningless.

Only occasionally, the Australian Rabbits can hit the magic ball across the field and bite the score.

Chen Ran's advantage in his own service game is quite obvious. He keeps his first-server error rate very low. He often only makes one or two mistakes in one serve game.

Hewitt was very unhappy after losing the first set.

Chen Ran also relied on his youth and strength to attack fiercely from the first ball.

His control of the game has obviously improved a lot. Every round of hitting the ball mobilizes Hewitt to keep running back and forth.

The fact was just as Chen Ran expected, the game was very torturous for both sides.

The two grassland masters launched a wonderful offensive battle.

The competition was so intense that Chen Ran even slipped while running to save the ball.

Due to the nature of grass, it is more prone to slipping than any other golf course.

Fortunately, he didn't suffer any injuries and was back on his feet quickly.

6 is better than 6!

This is the score of the first twelve games between Chen Ran and Hewitt.

Both sides secured serve in their 6 service games.

The second set of the game turned out to be more difficult than the first set.

A tiebreaker is the inevitable outcome.

"The second set of this game can be said to be a close call. Hewitt showed the strength of the former world No. 1 and two-time Grand Slam winner."

"He is telling the world that he is still the backbone of men's professional tennis that cannot be ignored."

"Of course, Chen Ran's performance is also very good."

"At such a young age, he has shown excellent adaptability and strong competitiveness in different venues and events." C5 host said slowly.

At this moment, it is almost 10 pm Chinese time, which is also considered a golden hour.

Data shows that as the game progresses, the ratings continue to rise.

Can Chen Ran break through the grass-court Grand Slam?

As long as he wins this game, he will at least break into the semi-finals.

Hewitt is obviously a powerful obstacle in front of Chen Ran, especially because he has much more experience on grass than Chen Ran.

The tie-break started with Chen Ran serving first.

But soon, the whole audience burst into exclamation.

Hewitt pulls off a nice mini-break.

Chen Ran tried to intercept in front of the net, but the tennis ball turned into a yellow-green cannonball and passed directly by his side.

He just instinctively stretched out his hand and gave up the idea of ​​saving the ball.

"what!!!"

Hewitt roared with excitement.

Break of serve for the first time in the game! After all, this mini break counts as a break.

Are the plots somewhat similar?

In the first set, Chen Ran broke serve at the beginning.

In the tie-break of the second set, Hewitt also broke serve at the beginning.

Suddenly, the whole place was in a climax.

Immediately afterwards, Hewitt scored two consecutive points on his own two service points, leading 3-0.

"This game is so exciting!"

"In a battle between top players, there really is no room for negligence."

"A little ups and downs in status are very likely to determine the outcome of the game."

After Hewitt completed the mini-break, Chen Ran, who looked solemn, also knew that the situation was not good and was very passive.

When he wanted to avoid a mini-break, he also had to consider how to complete the mini-break against Hewitt.

Chen Ran's counterattack was sharp, but Hewitt's performance was also extremely tenacious.

The two sides went back and forth, but in the end Hewitt held on to his advantage and did not give Chen Ran any chance of a "mini break".

7-5, Hewitt relied on a break of serve at the beginning of the tie-break to win this extremely intense second set.

1 is better than 1!

Hewitt not only equalized the total game, but also made the game suspense again.

"It seems this match cannot be resolved within three sets."

"This is good, it can give you a sense of urgency in advance."

When Chen Ran walked off the court with his racket, his expression was a little serious, but he still looked very calm.

This is already the quarter-finals, so it is understandable to encounter some difficulties.

It's obvious that at this point, the games are going to be more difficult with each passing game.

On the other side, Hewitt, who struggled to win the second set, was excited.

He knows the courts at Wimbledon all too well, even Court Two.

When Hewitt walked off the court, he waved his arms toward the audience, hoping that the fans in the audience would cheer him on.

Soon, the response from those London audiences was enthusiastic.

Mountains of applause swept over.

Chen Ran lowered his head slightly and smiled.
