Return to 2002: Freestyle Superstar

Chapter 399 The devil from the east enters the semi-finals
"Ladies and gentlemen, it looks like Layton is very excited about winning the second set."

"He should have regained the feeling he had when he won Wimbledon the year before last."

"Perhaps he can even perform a miracle today."

The Sky Sports host at the scene said excitedly.

When all the British players were eliminated, the Australian players, who were half British, enjoyed the treatment of the home team.

After the London audience saw Hewitt's hope of victory, they gave the opponent applause without hesitation.

After all, he was once a proud Wimbledon champion.

As for Chen Ran, he once again enjoyed the away game treatment.

"Leiden, stop him!"

"Don't let him break into the semi-finals at Wimbledon!"

Hewitt, who was in the distance, looked at this scene in shock, feeling a little bad in his heart.

With a little uneasiness, Hewitt and Chen Ran started the third set.

"My expression seems to be more excited."

I have a weapon in my hand, am I still afraid of you guys who are bare-handed?

Although British football hooligans are world-famous, there seemed to be no violent incidents among those watching tennis matches, which gave Chen Ran less to worry about.

But the waves of impact he launched on Hewitt's serve suddenly increased the pressure on the opponent.

At the end of the intermission in the second set, Hewitt was making his vows and gearing up for a big fight when he discovered that after Chen Ran walked into the court first, he put his hands on his hips and looked around the court very arrogantly.

The tennis court is not big, so those sounds are clearly audible.

"I have to win this game to see the disappointment on those British faces."

The more this kind of away game environment, the easier it is for his fighting spirit to burn up.

After all, those who watch tennis are mainly middle-class people, while those who watch football are working-class people.

In my impression, Chen Ran is not the kind of player who would be disturbed by off-field factors.

Chen Ran suddenly felt a sense of urgency in himself, prompting him to cheer up.

In the first game, Chen Ran got a break point, but unfortunately failed to cash in.

He once again started to provoke the British audience.

At least the racket is considered a weapon, right?

some British spectators shouted.

Then, Chen Ran slowly raised his arms and clapped his hands.

"His eyes seemed to have changed a little."

But even so, Chen Ran's expression seemed calm and calm, but he still held the racket tightly and raised his spirit to 120 points.

Fortunately, the security personnel at the scene always maintained a high degree of vigilance, and apart from cursing, no one from the fans tried to rush into the stadium.

Is Chen Ran raising his profile?
That was Hewitt's first thought.

Players of their caliber do have a tendency to suddenly hit the ground running at a critical point.

In a long tennis match, it is normal for the players' condition to fluctuate during this long period. The key lies in the players' ability to adjust on the spot.

Chen Ran decisively chose to work hard at the beginning of the third set.

Hewitt felt that Chen Ran's offense was becoming more and more sharp, and every hit made clever use of the characteristics of the grass court, making the tennis ball bounce extremely quickly.

"Wow!"

"It was a really good offensive battle."

The host expressed this emotion, "But I must admit that the Chinese has so many offensive methods that it is a little difficult for Hewitt to handle."

In Hewitt's second service game, Chen Ran still got a break point, but he was still able to hold serve in the end. This was the case for two consecutive service games, and he faced increasing pressure to maintain his serve.

As long as Chen Ran maintains a normal serving level, he can often maintain his serve easily.

By Hewitt's third serve, he finally couldn't hold it any longer.

After Chen Ran tied at 40, he scored two points in a row and broke serve again.

Immediately afterwards, he smoothly maintained all his serve games and once again won the third set 6-4.

Although the score of the third set was the same as the first set, the process was completely different.

In the first set, the two sides were actually very anxious. Chen Ran just relied on a lucky break to win the game.

In the third set, Chen Ran's advantage actually became quite obvious.

Hewitt did not get a break point, and was given two "love games" by Chen Ran, but Chen Ran got a total of five break points and successfully cashed in one of them.

If Hewitt still had a chance in the first set, he could not see any hope of victory in the third set.

In the third set, Chen Ran performed extremely strongly.

In an instant, the entire stadium was filled with boos and cheers.

"Chen Ran is only one step away from breaking into the semi-finals and creating a miracle at Wimbledon."

The Chinese reporters at the scene looked happy and clenched their fists.

Come on!

Keep up the momentum in the third set!
Some people even joked: "This guy, the more you stimulate him, the better his condition will be."

"Gentlemen, your booing seems to be of no use, so save your energy." The British host once again showed his humorous side.

Immediately, he joked again: "It seems that it is difficult for Leiden to prevent this devil from the east from breaking into the semi-finals of Wimbledon."

In fact, Chen Ran was only provoking the audience, and the host did not take it seriously.

What does this have to do with him?
The host just wanted to liven up the atmosphere at the scene.

He has commented on tennis matches for most of his life, and I must admit that Chen Ran's tennis is very enjoyable to watch.

It's just that this kid is not as humble as the Asian players in my impression. He is so crazy.

Look at how polite the players were in their childhood. No matter whether they win or lose, they bow immediately.

Have you ever seen Chen Ran bow? there has never been!

Although it is said that Chinese athletes do not have the habit of bowing, they are all focused on competing. People like Chen Ran are indeed too rare.

Suddenly, the entire audience burst into laughter.

"demon!"

"You devil from the east!"

Many spectators at the scene shouted in a similar manner.

"Why do these words sound so familiar? It seems like I heard them somewhere."

Chen Ran frowned, but couldn't remember.

However, this did not affect Chen Ran's game state at all. After the start of the fourth set, he was able to continue to improve.

Since Chen Ran served first in this set, he broke serve again in Hewitt's fourth service game.

5 is better than 3!

After the exchange of serves, he scored 4 points in a row with a strong serving state, and finally took away the game 6-3.

"The devil from the east has entered the semi-finals." The host announced loudly.
