There was a lot of discussion in the commentary booth, and those commentators who were familiar with Gawain all realized that in this game, Gawain began to exert his strength.

Zhan Jun is no exception, he gave a possibility.

"Zverev, a little tight."

“Not nervous, but tight.”

"He wanted to exert too much strength, and was too excited and agitated, so his strength overflowed more than usual, so the control effect was different and it was easy to deform."

"Tennis, like table tennis, badminton and other sports, does not necessarily mean whoever is stronger will win the point. There are also cases where great strength can produce miracles, but more often than not, too much strength may lead to a loss of control over the ball, and the most appropriate description is 'getting twice the result with half the effort'."

However, this is just a guess and they need to wait and see.

Zhan Jun's eyes fell on Gao Wen again, and he was a little curious about how Gao Wen would fight next——

In this innings, Gao Wen was a little different from the previous four innings. Although the changes were not drastic, the changes in rhythm and batting did exist.

It is indeed a pleasure to watch Gao Wen's game.

——“15:40”.

ACE!

Zverev finally won a point with an ace at a speed of 205 kilometers per hour and saved a break point.

"ah!"

Zverev also roared out loud. The situation in this game was far from what he had imagined. He felt very aggrieved and depressed.

He needs this kind of catharsis.

——“30:40”.

Although it was the second serve, the two players were in a stalemate at the baseline and fought back and forth for nine rounds. Gao Wen's forehand straight attack was slightly not controlled enough, so it went out of bounds and ended the point with a mistake.

Zverev saved another break point.

"ah!"

Once again, Zverev clenched his fists and roared, but the anger and irritation boiling in his chest could not be vented completely. He did not like his position.

On the other side of the net, Gao Wen remained unmoved. He took a look at the landing point of his forehand shot, then turned back to the second zone to prepare for the next point.

Objectively speaking, Gao Wen still needs more games, more shots and more confrontations. His hitting feel and game state are still in the running-in stage. All deviations are inevitable. This is why he has always insisted on dealing with Zverev at the baseline.

Moreover, although Gawain has met Zverev twice so far, and the scores seemed very easy, in fact, Zverev is a difficult player. In a few years, when this player has truly grown up, his games will be very dramatic.

In the Grand Slam tournaments, Zverev didn't know how to win for a long time, even when facing players ranked outside the top 50 or even 100 in the world. He often lost two sets first, and then grinded back little by little, making a three-set comeback.

From a positive perspective, he is resilient; but from a negative perspective, he does not know how to control his game. He has the ability and talent but does not know how to detonate his energy during the game.

In tonight's meeting, Zverev has indeed grown compared to Miami, so don't ignore his ability to stalemate, and don't ignore his ability to pull a game.

Missing two break points in a row should be a wake-up call, but there is no need to be nervous or anxious. This is part of the game and is completely to be expected.

Step forward and arrive at Area 2.

Focus and keep your eyes on the ball——

Close range pressure backhand.

Although it was still the backhand side, this time he made a change and chose to get close, which was not common in today's game. When it came to the crucial score, Zverev also gradually showed his arsenal. Just in the serve, different combinations were enough to show his ability.

Gao Wen predicted accurately, but the ball was too fast. The serve at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour still squeezed his body, so his backhand swing could not be fully carried out.

One.

And the difference can be seen at this time. Due to the close compression, the same backhand push and the control of the parabola are obviously lacking.

Gao Wen's return serve was slightly raised and rushed along the middle of the backhand diagonal line, but the impact of the ball was obviously insufficient. Zverev's steps were very calm. He adjusted with small steps and started the attack with a two-handed backhand.

but.

Zverev's attack did not fully open up the line. It was a half-attack and half-transition shot, and it was really difficult to judge the purpose of this shot. Don't forget that this was the first shot connection after serving. Despite his high morale, Zverev still did not open up the angle.

Gao Wen's response was very calm.

He raised his hands to hit the backhand, but without exerting too much force, he just exerted a little force and gently pushed the ball in a straight line.

The tennis ball rushed all the way along the left sideline of Gao Wen, but the power, angle, rotation, etc. were not maximized. It was equivalent to a light hit, mainly focusing on controlling the landing point.

Zverev had just returned to the center of the court to prepare for defense when he immediately realized the line of the ball. His footwork was timely and light. Compared with his height, his footwork really showed the growth and transformation of the younger generation.

Another point worth mentioning is that Zverev is not afraid of backspin balls.

Generally speaking, for players like Zverev who are over 195 cm tall, the difficulty of squatting their knees and lowering their center of gravity will increase to a higher level, especially the adjustments during fast movements, which are often more challenging when facing backspin balls.

But Zverev Jr. does have outstanding physical talents and is very stable in handling backspin balls.

Of course, this is also the reason why Zverev has never gained weight. Even though his body is a little thin, he did not rashly add weight to destroy the lightness of movement and the ease of adjusting the center of gravity.

At this time, Gawain lightly pushed a topspin shot, not a super topspin, but an ordinary shot with a little topspin, coming to Zverev's position, even with some exhaustion.

Zverev moved his body slightly forward, and decisively shot with his forehand, relying on his own strength to hit a straight line directly -

Treat others as they would have you treat them as you would have them treat you.

The ball went back and forth, making banging sounds like a ping-pong ball. The whole rhythm was very fast. It seemed that the tennis ball had just reached Zverev's side when it was pushed back, and before he could blink, it was in front of Gawain again.

Gao Wen, well prepared.

He paused slightly, and was about to move towards his forehand position, but after a pause, he immediately pulled back and his body appeared in the backhand position again.

From his steady center of gravity and light footsteps, it can be seen that Gawain had made preparations in advance, and Zverev's return was expected.

Push off the ground, swing the racket, turn the body——

Hit the ball.

The entire two-handed backhand was solid and crisp. At the moment of the shot, the racket head sped up and the tennis ball hit out like a cannonball.

Fast, quick and straight; and Gawain exerted his strength.

"Straight line vs straight line vs straight line".

For the third consecutive shot, Gawain once again aimed at Zverev's forehand and hammered.

At the same time, accelerate, add power, push deep, and spin downward.

Same circuit, different approach. Completely different.

Before Zverev could even adjust his steps, a mighty wave of air was already blowing towards him.

Grass.

Grass! Grass grass grass grass!
