Chapter 1050: Self-blooming
Step on the step.
jump.
Following the rhythm and beat, Li Zhe kicked out with his left leg and rushed out.
Although there was no prediction or advance movement, the subconscious hint ensured that the reaction speed was timely.
At this moment, he finally remembered that when the score was tied or there was a break point, Daniel liked to serve to the outside corner, whether in the first or second zone.
Daniel used the wide outside corner to open up the court, and at the same time, Steck moved in the direction of the outside corner to block the straight line and ensure that the other side receiving the serve would return the ball diagonally; but the real purpose was to make a sudden stop and turn, make a feint, and then move towards the midfield to block and intercept.
The entire layout is very clear, and even though the effects may vary, they can often create enough advantages to pave the way for subsequent scoring.
It works every time.
Stek and Daniel have used the same tactics several times, and at this moment, they used the same tactics again.
A push! A charge! The entire reaction speed was completely in line, and Li Zhe saw that Steck really moved towards the straight line on the left. His figure swayed and he took a step sideways, but then his left leg pushed the ground to brake, and the reaction force pushed his body towards the middle. If Li Zhe went back to the diagonal line, then he would be delivered to the door.
So, what about Li Zhe? He was highly focused. Because of his prompt reaction, he was able to take two long horizontal steps smoothly and stretch his body completely.
Even the forehand backswing is completed early, leaving enough time and space to complete the swing.
Just a slight difference in advance can produce incredible results in a split second, and the entire shot becomes smooth.
Push off the ground!
Turn around!
Make an effort!
“Ah! Ahhhhh!”
Li Zhe exploded all his energy from deep within his dantian, and his racket swing speed increased completely. With a flick of his wrist, the racket head speed also increased to the limit of his ability.
Give it a go! Swing!
Hit the ball!
Bang! Following the inertial momentum of his body moving sideways, Li Zhe threw himself out, with his body weight and inertial force all superimposed together.
Straight line, long sword unsheathed.
call.
The tennis ball draws a very straight line across the entire court.
Everything is quiet.
Everyone's attention was focused on the meteor's tail that was dragging outward.
Steck's moving body was filled with astonishment. He tried to stop suddenly, turn around, and start again, but just as his right leg pushed off the ground, he noticed that the tennis ball had already made a breakthrough.
Daniel hadn't even recovered from his serve yet, staring at the ball line in amazement. The world seemed to have gone into slow motion, slowing down ten or a hundred times.
Boom! It hit the Internet.
Li Zhe tried to speed up, but he pressed the ball too hard, so the parabola was not fully pulled up, and the tennis ball collided with the net and slowed down.
Chance?
Stek moved quickly and took a step sideways, but... he still couldn't catch up and could only watch the tennis ball continue to sprint forward.
The net belt did not give Li Zhe any home-court advantage, but instead weakened the power of his shot, causing the return ball to spin rapidly downward, falling off a cliff like a falling Mars.
whoosh.
The falling speed of the tennis ball increased significantly, and even its parabola was compressed. In the blink of an eye, it had landed and hit the sideline outside the doubles line.
Then, it spun and jumped out again.
Bang! The tennis ball hit the advertising board at the baseline, making a dull sound.
Stek was moving, Daniel was moving too, but everything was in slow motion, and it seemed that one could even see the trajectory of the strong wind.
The next second, the tennis ball fell to the ground and rolled out.
The linesman quickly moved out of the way to avoid being hit by the tennis ball, but did not forget his job. He clasped his hands together, looked determined, and resolutely made an "in bounds" gesture.
The whole place was silent.
What happened next? Both Steck and Daniel were still moving, and the audience was still holding their breath, their consciousness briefly blank, unable to react for a moment.
So, what next?
The referee's voice came to my ears——
"Game, China."
it's over.
The game ended like this: "7:6", "7:6", "6:7", "3:6", "6:4".
In the end, following the first singles match, the doubles match also lasted five sets and ended with the victory of Li Zhe and Zhang Ze, which also marked the end of the first day of competition.
China won all three battles.
At the same time, this also means that in the first round of the Davis Cup Asia-Pacific group, China has easily defeated New Zealand to secure victory.

it's over……
That's how it ended.
Li Zhe froze in place, staring at his own return in disbelief. His mind was blank and he didn't even know how he had completed the shot.
My knees went weak, I was exhausted, a deep fatigue surged over me, my calves began to tremble violently, I could no longer support my body, I squatted down.
The blood in my heart continued to surge, and my body felt slightly hot, as if there was a volcano erupting in my chest, and happiness and satisfaction filled me up.
Smile, bloom.
At least, that's what Li Zhe thought. He thought he was smiling brightly, but in fact, tears were streaming down his face uncontrollably.
The whole person just collapsed and lay on the ground in a big letter shape.
He knows.
His performance was a bit exaggerated. It was just a Davis Cup doubles victory, but his performance was as if he had made his first breakthrough in a Grand Slam tournament in his career.
However, even if we know, we still cannot control it.
This was a victory, a victory representing the country, a hard-earned victory, a victory that burned himself, and he left no regrets.
In his career, there are too many regrets, too many shortcomings, too many missed opportunities and too many disappointments. He thought he didn't care because he was used to it. It was not until now that he realized that this was not the case.
He still has dreams, he still wants to fight, he still loves tennis, and he still longs to run on this court.
He still didn't surrender.
Li Zhe covered his cheeks with his hands and let the tears flow.
Just for a moment, just for a moment tonight, he allowed himself a moment of weakness.
Wow! The whole audience was in an uproar. Screams, cheers, sighs, and groans all intertwined together, pouring down like a rainstorm.
The peacock blue night blooms seductively and brilliantly.
Tonight is so brilliant! Gawain jumped up three feet high, waved his fists, and smiled brilliantly like a child, shouting selflessly.
“Win!”
There was only one sentence, repeated over and over again, as if he had lost the ability to organize language, and was just cheering, shouting and releasing himself.
At the ABS stadium, you can see local Chinese spectators in Auckland waving the bright five-star red flag. The flag is more vivid and gorgeous than ever, lighting up the entire stadium.
Gawain had experienced moments of victory, moments of championship, and moments of history...but all of them were different from this moment.
It was an excitement and passion that could not be described in words. A sense of pride erupted from the depths of the soul and then exploded in the chest.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to fight for your country.
