Chapter 1886 Breaking Inertia

Huh! Ah! Oh! The Arthur Ashe Stadium was filled with low exclamations. It was a completely subconscious instinctive reaction. Every shot made by Federer and Gawain was dancing on the edge of a knife. The tense and exciting collision gripped the heart tightly, and the brain began to lack oxygen and fell into a frenzy.

Then--

Wow! When Federer hit the ball with his crotch in a completely acrobatic manner, the stadium cheered. The continuous climax that made his scalp tingle was like a torrential rain. Some spectators at the scene could not control themselves and stood up with their heads in their hands, staring at the scene in front of them with their mouths wide open, and fell into a daze.

Absolutely wonderful!

Federer unexpectedly chose to hit the ball in a straight line, finding a glimmer of hope on the edge of the cliff, and tried to break through Gawain's net blockade from a straight line position.

Obviously, Federer didn't need to look back to know that Gawain had covered the net, but his footsteps should be in the middle of the court, and he moved from the forehand position diagonally to the middle. At this time, he would habitually pay more attention to the space behind him.

This is a blind spot of awareness.

Because I am moving towards the backhand position and because I am facing the left, I subconsciously think that I will not miss the ball on the backhand side, and instead pay more attention to the space left behind me.

This is true for everyone; it's a habit.

When Federer turned around and ran back to chase the ball, he was already thinking about the layout. The crotch shot was also a purposeful and conscious delay in the shot, the purpose of which was to let Gawain get closer to the net.

Then, straight line, attack.

The straight mustard yellow light and shadow pierced through the court like a long arrow.

--Well.

Gawain's muffled groan could be clearly heard from across the court. The second start between the sudden stop and turn, the power from his dantian, made an involuntary sound.

He took a sideways step, but it was not enough, far from enough, so Gawain stood on one leg, supporting his body with his left leg, and threw his body completely tilted out.

One-handed backhand.

A block.

In passive and unexpected situations, you can only barely intercept a shot.

The tennis ball was lifted high, and the parabola suddenly rose up——

Federer turned 180 degrees and quickly cut to the baseline again with his nimble feet and quickly reached the net, quickly eliminating the disadvantage.

It can be seen at this point that Federer is more experienced in the control, judgment and application of net-front techniques, and he instantly reversed the passive situation.

Tap tap tap.

Tap, tap, tap! Federer repeated it again, straight up and down, straight down and up, running wildly on the vertical axis continuously. In this point, Federer had given it his all without reservation.

His footsteps cut diagonally from his forehand position to the left backhand position. His speed had reached the extreme and he was already near the serving area in a blink of an eye.

The tennis ball bounced off the ground and is now falling again.

Federer quickly glanced at the court. Gawain's footsteps were obviously a little flustered. Compared with the baseline, there was still room for improvement in his footsteps control in front of the net. After a sudden stop and turn, he was quickly pulling back to the center.

Back to defense.

Middle road.

Stuck in position.

There is nothing wrong with Gao Wen's movement, which is a textbook example of net attack and defense, but it is a bit rigid and cannot be used completely flexibly. Even after the break in the grass season, there is still room for growth.

Federer took a quick glance and launched a powerful one-handed backhand.

With a sweep, the arms are fully opened.

Slash.

Look back.

He aimed at the narrow gap behind Gao Wen, ready to end the point.

With one collision, the power is released instantly.

Amid the frantic running back and forth, Federer's control is still absolutely top-notch.

Bang.

Solid and steady strokes to strike out strongly.

Across the net, Gao Wen could clearly feel the heat coming towards him.

Push with your right leg to brake.

Push the ground with your calves to exert force.

After another quick stop and turn in a short period of time, the body had already rushed towards the backhand position again. The balance of the center of gravity broke free from the constraints of gravity during the continuous transfer, and the whole person soared into the air, making the action of a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.

A pounce.

One cut.

Keep your forearms straight.

One-handed back clasp.

Cap. Press down.

Power, bursting out.

Everything happened in an instant. The collision in front of the net seemed to be at triple speed. Before I could blink, and was still surprised by Federer's backhand straight line, the tennis ball had already gone diagonally into the gap of Federer's forehand.

Like a shooting star.

Magnificent and majestic, it explodes when it lands.

Score.

Break.

Arthur Ashe Stadium: …

There was complete silence.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Gawain finally felt the pull of gravity and fell quickly to the ground, rolling over with the force. But he stood up again swiftly and prepared for the next shot, only to see the tennis ball slip into the gap.

Next second.

"ah!"

Gawain rose into the air with the force of his standing up, clenched his fists and roared, letting out a long howl, with surging passion surging out.

“Ahhhh!”

In an instant, Arthur Ashe Stadium touched the seal.

Huh.

Shocked, stunned, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Federer's fans couldn't believe their eyes and held their heads in their hands. The sounds of amazement and regret filled the entire stadium, which further highlighted the enthusiasm of Gawain's fans.

Ahhh! Ahhh! Maybe the Gao Wen fans cannot resist the momentum of Federer fans everywhere, but they still make unwavering voices to announce their presence.

Arthur Ashe Stadium was boiling.

“1:0”.

At the start of the second set, it was Gao Wen who broke serve first, and he only needed one break point.

The stadium was so huge that the scene could not be seen clearly, but the director in charge of the live broadcast keenly noticed a detail: Gawain's knees and calves.

Abrasions and bleeding.

The hard cement court at the US Open is indeed very lethal and can cause scratches with just a slight bump.

Looking more closely, I saw scratches on the elbow.

The situation is not serious, just some skin breakage, but bleeding can indeed be seen.

However, Gawain didn't mind at all. His eyes were bright and firm, his fist raised high, passion surging in his chest, and his high fighting spirit was burning.

Gawain, dressed in black, looked like a bloody god of war, and once again demonstrated his indomitable spirit and tenacity on the stage in Flushing.

Boom! Boom boom boom! The atmosphere at Arthur Ashe Stadium reached a new climax.

At the end of the first set, Federer's supporters were right. They could neither relax nor celebrate. Gawain would never surrender easily. The victory in the first set was a bit of luck. Sure enough, as soon as the second set started, their idol was in crisis and the situation was still very tense.

However, despite their worries, they quickly regained their senses and began to cheer for Federer.

After all, this is only the first game of the second set.

Moreover, it is still unknown whether Gawain can hold his serve in the next game. They all expect Federer to fight back after being broken.

As a result, the shouts quickly merged into one, sweeping across like a hurricane, colliding head-on with the voices of Gawain's supporters.

"Pah! Roger!"

"Pah! Roger!"

Compared with the excited fans and spectators, Federer still seemed calm.

The most important thing now is to adjust his breathing. After running long distances continuously, he still failed to get the point and even lost his first serve. Federer knows better than anyone that he needs to stick to the game and not let Gawain's momentum get fully raised.

So, he needs to catch his breath, he needs to stay calm, he needs to stay focused.

After the venue was changed, Gao Wen's serve came.
