Chapter 1647: Ashes and Ashes

Got it.

Murray's attention was highly concentrated. The game and confrontation had already started from the serve and receive stage. He once again used his excellent serve and receive ability to reverse the passive situation and seize potential offensive opportunities. His overall concentration level instantly rose to a higher level.

Tap. Tap.

Murray is constantly adjusting his steps, preparing for the next shot's attack. His body and brain are already in shape.

However, Gawain held his body still, and when his footsteps could hardly move away, he relied entirely on the touch of his arms and wrists to block the position next to his footsteps.

The naked eye has no time to observe the details, and the wrist just wraps and blocks in a flash.

Next second.

The tennis ball was already wrapped up by the reaction force of the racket strings and flew out, but Gawain's hitting action was still not over.

Gao Wen continued to swing the racket, and as soon as he raised his arms, his body was flipped over and jumped backward due to the squeezing force. He controlled his balance by relying on the strength of his waist and abdomen. The swing of his arms did not stop, but continued to be lifted up and lightly kicked the ball. It was obvious that a large amount of topspin friction was superimposed in the short time of touching the ball.

Immediately following.

Gao Wen took a step forward and quickly adjusted his center of gravity. Like a spring, his knees bounced and he rushed out like a cheetah.

Light and agile, flowing like clouds and water——

Go online.

Huh, the whole audience was stunned.

He actually went to the net! In a completely passive situation when receiving serves, Gawain had already lost the initiative to connect the attack after serving, and was pushed into a passive position by Murray.

However, Gao Wen chose to force his way onto the Internet in a passive situation.

Forced means doing something intentionally even though it is unnecessary.

An unexpected event, a complete and utter accident, easily defied all conventional judgment.

The whole place was in complete silence, not even the sound of breathing.

All the amazement and surprise disappeared deep in the throat, and they stared at the ever-changing yet spectacular waves on the court in a daze.

Gawain, are you crazy?

Of course not.

Behind the adventure, on the one hand, there is the helplessness in being passive, and on the other hand, there is the active pursuit of change in the crisis.

Murray's excellent serve return created enough impact to break Gawain's layout, and he needed to respond, whether actively or passively.

The most important thing is determination and courage. Although the situation in this round is stalemate and dangerous, it does not mean that Gao Wen will be conservative.

If it were an ordinary person, after finally saving two match points and getting the game point, he would probably breathe a sigh of relief after escaping the danger, and would tend to be a little more conservative on the next point. Or rather, not conservative but relatively less aggressive. After all, he is no longer standing on the edge of a cliff.

Obviously, Murray seized this situation, and when facing the second serve, the whole process was very oppressive.

But that is not the case with Gawain.

In Gao Wen's view, the game point is a pass, a pass that allows him to be bolder, more adventurous and more decisive. He will not be hesitant because of the fear that the hard-earned game point will slip away again. On the contrary, he will let go and make more attempts.

After a few exchanges, Gao Wen caught a fleeting inspiration and went online.

From returning the ball to reaching the net, Gawain's movements completely disrupted the balance, and the psychological pressure he brought to Murray naturally broke expectations, and the game suddenly changed again.

A second ago, Murray was still adjusting his steps and preparing for the subsequent offensive connection.

The next second, Murray saw the Tigers' Gao Wen pressing his vision.

ah.

The sense of space of the entire court changed instantly, and Murray's offensive plan had to be adjusted. His attention on the tennis ball immediately sounded the alarm. In the ever-changing situation, he needed to observe, judge and choose, and his second step would inevitably pause for a moment.

Oops!

Before he had time to sort out his thoughts from the chaos, Murray had already noticed the weirdness of the return -

It's high and floating, but not as spinning as one might imagine.

Although Gao Wen added a lot of topspin, the contact time of the rebounding ball was still too short and the friction was insufficient, so the final rotation did not meet Gao Wen's expectations; including the parabolic arc, the flight distance in the vertical space, etc. were also out of control, and the overall return effect was slightly ambiguous.

However, the flight route and the effect of leveraging the opponent's force far exceeded expectations.

Gawain's rebound ball actually drew a small reverse diagonal line; the high-rising parabola was not far due to lack of power to push it, and finally created an unexpected short ball effect -

It was a short ball, not a small ball. Judging from the parabola, the landing point should be near the baseline of the serving area, but this was obviously not the designed effect of Gao Wen's shot.

The unexpected impact not only hit Gawain, but also Murray. The entire situation was overturned in a short period of time and then immediately encountered a second overturn.

On the other side, Gao Wen reversed the situation, went online immediately and broke the balance.

Here, Murray, who had originally taken the initiative, fell into the passive position before he had time to catch his breath.

In just a moment, Murray started running towards the tennis ball at full speed, and all plans were scrapped.

Ah! Ah! Murray, all the energy burst out, but the situation is very, very bad -

Gao Wen, who had forced his way onto the Internet, should have been in a rush, but now he had gained time and was able to arrive at the location calmly.

The return ball accidentally hit a diagonal line. Although it did not have enough rotation, it had an unexpected side spin effect after landing.

Ah! Murray's speed has been increased to the extreme. His staggering steps are barely in place, but there is not much space left for hitting the ball. He glanced at Gawain with his peripheral vision and barely hooked the ball with a two-handed backhand, trying to use the speed of the racket head to force an attack, tear open Gawain's block and find a way to break the net.

However.

The moment he shot, Murray knew that the ball was gone.

Crash.

With a sound, Murray's return ball hit the net directly.

"roar!"

Gawain leaped high up, clenched his hands into fists, and roared short and powerfully, full of passion, like a god of war.

Once again, and again, Gao Wen pulled the race back from the finish line with an indomitable champion's heart.

Center Court is crazy, completely crazy—

This point was so, so, so exciting, from the confrontation between the game and the breakthrough, to the sudden shot and the flexible pursuit, the initiative and passivity kept going back and forth between the two players. In just four rounds, they switched back and forth between offense and defense, which was much more exciting than a vertical fall.

and!

From falling behind at 15:40 and facing two consecutive match points to winning four points in a row to hold serve, the ups and downs in just three minutes went back and forth between heaven and hell. The continuous eruption of adrenaline boiled in the blood vessels, pushing the game to an unparalleled climax.

The entire stadium was plunged into a turbulent tide of applause.

Pop.

Murray smashed the racket, not violently, he just slammed it hard to the ground. Because the racket face was parallel to the ground, the racket hit the ground dully without any splash or impact, and lay dully on the grass, like a fist hitting cotton.

But Murray needed to vent his emotions like this. After getting the match point, he played too uncomfortably and the feeling of being restricted was hard to digest.

The match point was gone before I had time to grasp it.
