Chapter 1864 Return to the Top Four



The game is still going on.

On the Arthur Ashe Stadium, Gawain and Gasquet were running wildly, concentrating, sweating profusely, their faces flushed, but their eyes were still sharp.

With a step, Gao Wen pushed the ground hard with his left leg, and pushed out forcefully with his hands. In a passive state, he pushed hastily.

Diagonally, the tennis ball flew along the diagonal line towards the deep backhand area of ​​Gasquet.

Although due to the rush, the swing space was limited, the landing point control was a little lacking, and the big triangle hammer was not aimed at the baseline, but the shot was very solid.

Across the net, Gasquet returned, preparing to return to defense and returning to the backhand position for the second time, and the one-handed backhand was already stretched out gracefully -

This was the second consecutive round in which the two players continued to engage in a tit-for-tat clash on the backhand.

Bang! Ah! As the ball was shot, Gasquet also screamed, and his entire upper body was fully stretched out, once again showing the unique charm of the single-handed reflex.

The tennis ball once again went along the diagonal line, faster, flatter, deeper and heavier, rushing over like a heavy artillery, with mustard yellow air waves baring their fangs and claws.

Right at this moment!

Gao Wen pretended to move towards the forehand position, but he turned with a kick of his right leg, and with light steps, he returned to the backhand position in the first time.

Obviously, Gao Wen had already made some predictions. In this round, both of them were calculating and gambling to see who would change the line first and who would be able to suppress the opponent in the backhand position. The head-on collision between the tips of the punches produced incredible sparks in the impact between each beat.

On the other hand, Gasquet still had some concerns, worrying about the gaps in his forehand, and the weakness of his defense also made him worried.

On this side, Gawain seized the gap in movement caused by Gasquet's slight concern and grabbed the position with an advance prediction.

——Push off the ground. Brake. Step forward. Move forward.

The entire batting action was done in one go. It was obvious at a glance that Gao Wen was calculating without any intention. After finding a slight opportunity, he immediately seized the chance to make the shot.

The body and the racket swing both move forward slightly, grabbing a rising point, and the two-handed backhand is already launched.

Be resolute enough, decisive enough, and tough enough.

Bang.

boom.

Heavy artillery, attack.

straight line.

In fact, Gasquet's concerns were correct. Gawain had indeed been waiting for an opportunity. A two-handed backhand straight line could overturn the situation at any time. Gawain seized Gasquet's concerns and successfully created a trap, combining diagonal lines with straight lines, with the purpose of grabbing an opportunity to shoot.

The tennis ball disappeared too fast and too heavy in the splendor and color of the night.

Gasquet immediately started running and ran towards the forehand position, but -

It's too late.

Gawain's straight backhand shot went through the entire court with such force that Gasquet didn't stand a chance.

and!

After hitting the ball, Gao Wen's body moved forward directly due to the inertia of leaning forward, entered the baseline, continued to go to the net, and prepared for the next shot.

The whole routine is clear and concise, and more importantly, it is well executed.

The tennis ball exploded and blossomed after it hit the ground.

There is no suspense and nothing is left to chance.

Match point, cash in.

"6:3", "6:3", "6:1".

Victory belongs to Gawain.

Although Gasquet played very well in the first and second sets, once again showing the audience the unique charm of offensive tennis and one-handed backhand, and had many winning points worthy of recognition as the top five shots; but he was unable to hold on to the game at the critical moment and was instantly left behind by Gawain.

In the third set, Gasquet obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. He was still trying hard, still fighting, and still fighting back, but ultimately he failed to make any waves. Instead, the mature and experienced Gawain seized the opportunity, broke his serve continuously, directly widened the gap, and rushed all the way, unstoppable, towards victory.

On the first match point, Gasquet saved the match with a stunning backhand diagonal "inside-out" signature score, which not only won applause from the audience, but also from Gawain.

This French genius, nicknamed "Tofu", may not be tough enough at critical moments, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have blood in his bones.

On the second match point, Gawain did not miss it again. He strongly restrained Gasquet's backhand and finally cashed in with his own backhand straight line.

The whole match took one hour and fifty-five minutes. Gao Wen defeated Gasquet in three straight sets and advanced to the semi-finals.

When the last point was scored, Gawain, who was sprinting towards the net to put pressure on the opponent, stopped, raised his hands high with the force of the forward rush, turned suddenly, and accurately found his player box in the bustling crowd. The smile on his lips bloomed unreservedly.

Joy. Happiness. Exhilaration.

Everything is so pure and so simple.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

That kind of joy was released continuously from the depths of my heart, like fireworks, blooming layer by layer, and the night sky of Flushing was as bright as day.

"ah!"

Suddenly, Plan jumped high up. His clenched fists were already soaked with sweat and his cheeks were flushed. His tense nerves and pounding heart had not finally relaxed until now. A huge wave of joy came over him.

Jiang Yanyun covered his mouth in disbelief, turned his head and looked at Gao Hongli, the surging emotions in his eyes could not be concealed -

Five days ago, Gao Wen almost withdrew from the competition, but now, Gao Wen has made it into the semi-finals.

Is all this true?

No matter what happens next, no matter who he faces in the next game and how the outcome will be, Gao Wen has already proved himself.

His stubbornness, his tenacity, his perseverance, his will, his hard work, his fighting spirit, his passion...

Everything, everything, is burning.

Looking at Gawain with his hands raised high in the center of the court, he did not cheer, jump or celebrate, he just stood there with his hands raised high. His bright eyes were filled with the sea of ​​stars, and a pure and simple happiness spread quietly, shining brightly under the night sky.

“Ah! Ahhhhh!”

Plan's eyes were already moist as she cheered, jumped and shouted, but she didn't mind. She quickly rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand to dry the tears, then continued to raise her hands and shouted along with the cheers. The entire Arthur Ashe Stadium had already surrendered. Who could resist this scene?

“Ahhhh!”

“Ahhhh!”

The mighty and thunderous sound filled the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium in the blink of an eye. Even the voices in the commentary booth were drowned out. The rolling heat wave pushed the night game of the tenth match day to a new climax. The excitement and excitement eroded all rationality in the mind.

——Gao Wen, advanced to the semi-finals.

With this step, Gao Wen has advanced to the semi-finals of five consecutive Grand Slams. Since entering his professional career, his worst record in a Grand Slam is the semi-finals.

There is no doubt that this is a feat that has never been achieved before and will probably be extremely difficult to surpass.

Moreover, for the second consecutive year, Gao Wen made it to the semi-finals in Flushing, proving with practical actions that last year's magical journey was not an accidental coincidence.

——When Gawain was the first to advance, there was only one question left.

For the semi-finals in the lower half, will it be a rematch of the Roland Garros semi-finals or a rematch of the Wimbledon semi-finals?
