Chapter 1878: Each
Shows His Abilities According to technical statistics, after a player breaks serve, he is more likely to be broken in his next service game.
There are many reasons.
Firstly, after the player breaks the serve, his energy and physical strength are obviously depleted, his mind becomes a little relaxed, and his concentration may fluctuate.
Secondly, after the opponent is broken, he will immediately launch a counterattack in the next game, quickly improve his condition, and instantly burst out with more ferocious energy.
In this way, the next game after a break often becomes the focus of competition.
Especially the Big Four games.
The so-called Big Four are not indestructible, and their serve games will also encounter crises, but their handling and response after the crisis occurs, this is where their real strength lies. Their ability to break back immediately after being broken deservedly ranks in the first tier in the tour.
Naturally, the Big Four also realize that they may face an attack in the next service game after breaking the serve, so they will be more vigilant. Such games and tugs of war frequently appear in the confrontations between the Big Four, and the intensity often rises directly to a higher level.
At this point, it is the so-called critical situation.
Gao Wen also has this ability.
In the last game, Federer opened fire on the offensive end and broke the serve with an absolutely strong and outstanding performance.
In this game, Gao Wen fought back without giving up an inch, and his performance was different from the first shot of receiving the serve.
"0:15".
Zone 2, one shot.
The tennis ball went into Gawain's chest.
Although the speed was only 180 kilometers per hour, even slower than the previous serve, Federer had obviously calculated and planned this serve.
Federer chose to serve, aiming at Gawain's position, slightly to the forehand, and after landing, with a strong side spin, drilling towards Gawain.
The placement, rotation, and line, Federer showed his talent on the serve, with a very clear goal, which was to try to squeeze Gawain's forehand.
Gawain was undoubtedly in a passive position.
As soon as he tiptoed, his flexible and light center of gravity was pulled to the left, and his foot barely made room for a step. However, the rotation arc of the tennis ball after it landed immediately made Gao Wen realize that the space was still not enough, so he simply leaned back and bent his upper body to make room to the side.
The right hand cannot be stretched out at all, and the arm and elbow are turned away from the body, which also means that it is impossible to swing the racket completely.
However.
Gao Wen was not nervous at all, let alone panic. He reacted reflexively, keeping his right hand close to his torso, and turned in a small range and arc, using the turning movement to drive his right hand to swing the racket.
Keep your forearms straight and your wrists soft.
Where there is loss, there is gain. Since Federer chose to chase and side spin, he must sacrifice strength and speed, and these shortcomings will become loopholes for Gawain.
——Here it comes! The tennis ball hits the racket face and continues to spin. You can clearly feel the vibration of the racket strings.
A top, a turn, and a stroke.
Gao Wen's entire hitting action was done in one go. He did not force his own strength, but followed the inertia and used the flexibility of his body to organize the power. The rotation of the tennis ball also became the context that Gao Wen used. Just when the tennis ball was about to escape the control of the racket strings, the speed of his wrist increased.
One belt, one roll.
Before I could even close my eyelids, the tennis ball had already been hit out by the reaction force.
straight line.
In an extremely passive, embarrassing and difficult situation, Gawain used the opponent's force to play against him, relying entirely on his cleverness to change the trajectory of the tennis ball. At this moment, we can see Gawain's talent in touch and layout, and his instant reaction can make a choice that is most beneficial to him.
The flying speed of the tennis ball is not fast. It wobbles and spins. It is light and floating, and it seems that a gust of wind can blow it away.
but!
Gawain hit a straight line after losing his position and being completely squeezed, which completely broke Federer's prediction.
Federer is even more embarrassed.
After the serve, he was almost certain that Gao Wen's return would go to the middle or backhand. His footwork was adjusting quickly, and from his posture, it could be seen that he was preparing to turn sideways and hit a forehand.
Among the Big Four, Federer's sideways forehand attack power is second only to Nadal, and his frequency of use is almost the same as Nadal. This is his heavy weapon.
It's clear at first glance that Federer is determined to win.
However, Gao Wen's unexpected return disrupted the layout. Although the quality of the return was not outstanding, he reversed the confrontation situation through the line and landing point.
Federer's steps were a little messy. He paused, then started again. By the time his feet caught up, the hitting point was already very far back.
Federer had to run out as fast as he could. His feet couldn't keep up, so he stretched out his upper body and whipped the ball with his forehand, but his control over the line and landing point was not very precise.
Slash.
Sweep.
Federer hoped that the combination of line and speed of his forehand would hold Gao Wen back and buy him time to adjust his pace.
He pushed with his right leg, applied the emergency brake, and managed to control his center of gravity, preventing the centrifugal force from pulling him forward.
One looks back at the moon.
Federer saw a black figure rushing to the diagonal position across the court. He stretched out his forehand fully and made a quick shot from a high point like an eagle spreading its wings. He shot at the last moment before the tennis ball was about to fall from the highest point. It was quick and clean.
Bang.
straight line.
Deep area.

The knife comes down quickly and without any delay. You don't even need to exert full strength or take the risk of aiming at a blind spot. Just pursue a line.
Land, get open, score.
"0:30".
Wow! Arthur Ashe Stadium was boiling.
This is Federer's signature style of play, using shot connection, tempo changes and line layout to increase rhythm. The collision of shot to shot does not require force, but is able to form an airtight feeling of oppression, and finally create opportunities. The entire attack is done in one go, which is an absolute pleasure.
Now, it appears on Gawain and is used against Federer.
That feeling and that taste created a huge wave in my mind.
The rapid attack completely broke Federer's tactical layout, turning the situation around in the midst of difficulties and passivity, and then he took the lead in getting two points in this game.
“Wow.”
McEnroe couldn't help but exclaim, then thought carefully and tried again.
“Wow.”
"Does a shot like this, a round like this, require any language?"
"Wonderful!"
Federer had just broken Gawain's serve, but before he had time to catch his breath, he was facing a crisis in his own serve.
Did Federer play badly? No, it was Gawain who also improved his form.
With each back and forth, the intensity of the entire game went up a level.
But will Federer just give up? Of course not.
——ACE!
At the critical moment, Federer's serve changed again, and a serve at a speed of 210 kilometers per hour saved the situation, directly cutting off all of Gawain's counterattacks.
"15:30".
Federer also secretly clenched his fists and cheered himself up. Now both of them are improving their condition, and the next game will enter a whole new level.
Federer gained a firm foothold, but Gawain was not affected. He seized a second serve opportunity from Federer, attacked continuously with forehand, and finally used a straight backhand to tear through Federer's defense, regained the initiative and won another point.
So, the break point appeared.
"15:40".
Moreover, two of them happened in a row.
This is the response from Gawain.
