In the last point of the game, the quality of Istomin's return ball declined significantly. After being under continuous pressure, his return ball was shallow. Gao Wen stepped into the court and hit the ball in a straight line with his forehand to repeatedly land the winning point. He quickly cashed in the break point and match point and won the game.

Two hours and forty-eight minutes, Gawain had the last laugh.

Gawain raised his hands high, smiling brightly, no cheering or shouting, no venting or release, he just smiled brilliantly.

With a turn, Gawain found his player box in the audience stands and looked over with bright eyes, overflowing with joy and happiness.

Sampras and his teammates no longer had the tension and anxiety of the first three sets, and there was almost no suspense in the final set. Despite this, they all stood up and applauded Gawain, expressing their affirmation with their eyes. The first round of a Grand Slam match is never easy at any time, and channel switching is even more so. Today, Gawain was able to find a solution to the dilemma and pass it narrowly, which is undoubtedly a positive signal.

Jiang Yanyun finally found a smile on her face. Looking at the curve of Gao Wen's mouth, she also raised her hands above her head and clapped her hands together.

Gawain was about to look away when he saw Lawrence in the crowd.

It was not easy to ignore her because she stood out from the crowd like a giant mushroom with a huge beige wide-brimmed straw hat.

At Wimbledon, it is very common to wear sunglasses and straw hats to block the sun and see the court clearly because of the glare of the sun. However, in order to avoid blocking the view of the audience in the back row, the tournament officials have strict regulations on the brims of hats, using the brims of Wimbledon's official hats as the standard. If they do not meet the specifications, then during the game, the hat must be taken off, otherwise the tournament reserves the right to expel spectators.

At this point, the game was over and the wide-brimmed straw hat had no effect, but it stood out among the sea of ​​small and exquisite hats.

Looking around, you can easily see the huge hat; moreover, there is a blooming red camellia on the hat, which is bright and dazzling. It is definitely not easy to ignore in the bustling crowd, and the surrounding eyes are involuntarily attracted to it.

Gao Wen is no exception.

Across the crowd, the seats and the court, Lawrence and Gawain's eyes met in the air.

Although he was wearing sunglasses and couldn't see Lawrence's eyes clearly, he could still clearly see the smile arc at the corner of his mouth rising high.

Then, Lawrence raised her right hand and gestured elegantly and calmly. She didn't even wave her palm left and right, but moved her fingers up and down like a puppet, trying to express her greeting in the most restrained and simple way possible. It seemed that one could feel the mischievous smile behind the sunglasses.

Gao Wen couldn't help but laugh.

However, Gawain did not avoid the question nor did he get angry. Instead, he smiled generously and clapped his hands in the direction of Lawrence to express his gratitude. Then, he turned around and looked at other people in the audience stands and continued to applaud to express his gratitude, thanking the audience for their support and treating everyone equally.

This frank and generous action actually sends a clear signal: Lawrence, there is nothing special, so there is no need to make a fuss.

Then, without any pause, Gawain turned around and trotted towards the net, shaking hands with the dejected and disappointed Istomin.

It can be seen from his body language that Istomin was very disappointed with the result of the game. When shaking hands after the game, he didn't want to exchange polite greetings at all.

After a simple handshake and greeting, he released his right hand without saying a word; but he remained polite and gave way to the referee. Seeing that Gawain also gave way to the referee, Istomin did not hesitate to step forward and shook hands with the referee first, then returned to the players' seats with his head lowered to clean up.

The disappointment is beyond words.

After Gawain shook hands with the referee, he returned to the court, took off his shoes, put on his white socks, and felt the grass with his feet.

He sprinted all the way and then started to "ski on the grass", sliding out wobbly with his arms outstretched as if he were keeping balance like wings. He looked just like when he was a child, wearing his favorite rain boots and raincoat and running outside to play in the water on a rainy day. He didn't even need any toys, he could entertain himself in the puddles. A smile crept up the corners of his mouth, and he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

Oh oh, roo roo.

When the audience at Court No. 2 saw Gao Wen playing playfully, they began to whistle and cheer, making the scene very lively.

Finally, until the friction of the grass stopped his feet, Gawain took another step forward, leaped high, and explored the sky with his clenched right fist, as if ready to touch the endless blue sky. Then, happiness blossomed at the corners of his mouth, blooming proudly without reservation.

Roar! Roar! Roar! The cheers and shouts from the entire No. 2 stadium also rose steadily with Gawain's movements, and finally exploded. Applause and whistles poured down like a rainstorm. The stadium actually erupted into a tsunami of cheers again. The entire audience felt happy because of Gawain.

That kind of pure and simple strong emotion is contagious and impactful.

People almost forget that Gao Wen is just a 19-year-old college student who has been in the professional tennis world for less than a year. His childlike heart full of curiosity, courage and courage is still beating in his chest. He feels the grass of Wimbledon in this way.

Refreshing.

Even the referee couldn't help but smile slightly.

If possible, he didn't want to interrupt Gawain's celebration. After all, it was indeed a difficult game and Gawain deserved a small celebration.

But… "Gawain."

The referee called out, Gao Wen turned around, and then saw the referee signaling with his eyes.

Following his sight, Gawain saw Istomin who had already packed up. An idea suddenly occurred to him and he ran back barefoot.

Among the many traditions of Wimbledon, there is a very special one: in order to show the spirit of fair play and treat the winners and losers equally, the players need to leave the court together after the game.

In the other three Grand Slams, losers leave the court in frustration, while winners enjoy the cheers of the audience alone - there are even post-match interviews and spotlight moments of on-site interaction, but Wimbledon believes that both winners and losers deserve a formal and grand exit, which is also a unique ceremony.

—Apparently, Gawain had completely forgotten.

Gao Wen apologized to the referee while jogging. He then quickly packed up his equipment. He didn't have time to put on his shoes. He continued to play barefoot, holding his sneakers, and quickly caught up with Istomin, apologizing, "Sorry, sorry, I really didn't mean it."

The depressed Istomin looked at Gao Wen, who was a little reckless, and smiled again, "Hey, are you sure you don't need to put on your sneakers?"
