Pressure! Pressure! Pressure!

Federer felt the pressure from the backhand position at the first moment. Although Gawain did not continue to speed up, the rhythm was restrained and oppressed everywhere. The game between the two players lasted throughout, which put an incredible test on physical strength and energy. Federer felt the impact deeply.

Some might say, what about Wimbledon?

Don't forget that the final set of Wimbledon was decided at 13:11, and Gawain had already created countless troubles by then.

But Federer would say it's different after all.

At Wimbledon, it is a grass court, and Gao Wen's impact is more of a collision of ability and talent, with mental toughness playing a key role; at Flushing Meadows, it is a fast hard court, and it is also the arena where Gao Wen became famous, and Gao Wen's personal strength is fully reflected here.

What's more, after the polishing of the clay and grass seasons, Gao Wen has become more mature; after experiencing injuries and unexpected setbacks, Gao Wen has become more determined.

Although Federer was leading by one set in terms of the score, when he was truly immersed in the game, he felt the impact far greater than in Wimbledon.

but!

Federer's ability to withstand the impact of Nadal, Djokovic, Murray and other players and still rank among the top in the world is definitely not just supported by his talent. His ability, his brain, his wisdom, his will and so on all play an important role.

At this moment, Federer felt the pressure from Gawain's super topspin attack on his backhand, and his years of experience against Nadal instantly burst out with amazing energy.

A push. A push.

Arms fully extended.

With a roar, Federer also became furious, and he tore a diagonal line and hit the tennis ball back above his shoulder.

Of course, Federer was ultimately suppressed by rotation. He was unable to unleash his line, angle, speed, etc. He was just forcing a collision.

On the other side of the court, Gao Wen's figure was light and agile as a whirlwind as he crossed the court.

Backhand position.

brake.

Push off the ground.

Meet forward.

Impact.

Gao Wen was moving at high speed, and his backhand shot sped up instantly, hitting the tennis ball back along its flight trajectory.

"Backhand VS Backhand 1.0".

Federer was not to be outdone.

"Backhand VS Backhand 2.0".

Gawain continued to apply pressure.

At this point, it was obvious that Gao Wen was strong in the backhand position. His solid power and fast connection completely blocked Federer's swing.

Alternatively, Federer could step back to create space, but Federer knew it was useless. Even if he stepped back to gain space for his backhand swing, he still couldn't withstand Gawain's shot. The only chance was to move quickly and sideways to hit his forehand, but the entire forehand court would be cleared.

Or, look for an opportunity to change line in the backhand position. Just one shot is enough. A little gap and a straight backhand shot can completely reverse the situation.

Federer gritted his teeth and forced a backhand confrontation. The long-term confrontation with Nadal has significantly improved his backhand resistance ability; but the problem is that Gawain is very cautious and attentive. The confrontation in the backhand position continues to create pressure, and the landing point and line control are also very careful.

No chance.

Not at all.

Federer felt a little frustrated and annoyed. It felt like he was facing Nadal and Djokovic at the same time. It was simply terrible.

"Backhand VS Backhand 3.0".

For the third time in a row.

A thought flashed through Federer's mind for a moment, whether he should force a forehand sideways, but in a flash, Federer had made up his mind.

Bold. Strong. Courageous.

The Swiss king truly showed his dominance when he was on the backhand. He did not change his position but just moved his body slightly forward. Since Gao Wen did not give him a chance, he relied on his own changes to create opportunities. In a passive situation, he barely got the chance to move forward.

Backhand, shot.

Long sword, unsheathed.

It's not about exerting force from the front, but about hitting lightly, using the force of the opponent.

The key is to control the racket face and adjust the wrist. Gently tear the diagonal angle. The return line is not aimed at the deep area of ​​Gao Wen's backhand, but at the serving area on the left side of Gao Wen. The angle is completely torn, and the tennis ball is controlled by the wrist and racket face to fall into the serving area and continue to turn outward.

stunt!

In a formal match, if two players continuously pull backhands against each other and try to pull out angles, this can be done; occasionally by chance, such an extreme line can be accidentally pulled out, but if it is entirely under one's own control, and it is not accidental or unexpected, and can be done anytime and anywhere, then it is the unique patent of the one-handed backhand.

Because of the one-handed grip, this allows them to tear the angles apart, and the light and thin return line cuts into the court like a knife.

Among them, Federer is an absolute master.

In an instant, the balance was broken again.

Federer and Gawain were in a stalemate, calculating and playing games. This time, Federer, who was in an absolutely passive position, made a bold attempt to overturn the situation.

Just one shot of the ball completely overturned Gao Wen's three consecutive backhand attacks.

The situation reversed in an instant.

The whole audience was dumbfounded——

On the other hand, Gao Wen's footsteps were directly pulled out of the singles line... no, outside the doubles line, and the whole person completely disappeared outside the court.

At the same time, you also need to move forward vertically and completely lose your position.

On the other hand, Federer completed the shot in an extremely passive and difficult situation. He paused, cut into the baseline without hesitation, and approached the net lightly.

Follow the ball to the net.

Federer once again demonstrated his ability to interpret opportunities and situations. He turned the situation around and immediately followed with pressure, leaving no breathing room.

Tap tap tap.

Gawain was moving, and before he caught up with the tennis ball, he could already see the figure pressing forward from the corner of his eye. The space on the court was shrinking rapidly, and the crisis was overwhelming. Gawain instantly felt Federer's experience and strength, and he could not relax even if there were no loopholes.

He must do his best.

Thoughts flashed through my mind.

Gawain's footwork was not hurried, because Federer's return this time depended entirely on the line and landing point, but in fact his speed and power were average.

Gao Wen believed that he could catch up, the key point was the next step——

How to return the ball?

Gawain has completely lost his position on the court and has stepped outside the doubles line. After he returns the ball, Federer will definitely block and volley at the net in the next shot, so he cannot just consider the present, but also needs to plan for the next shot.

Before they knew it, the round was still going on, and the two players jointly presented the longest round since the start of the game tonight.

Gawain was very calm and could see at a glance that Federer's body center of gravity was moving to the right, which meant that he was blocking the straight line.

Regardless of whether this is a smoke bomb or not, Gawain glanced at the diagonal position...

Can't see it.

Literally.

Because the angle of Federer's return was completely torn apart, Gawain could no longer see the position of the other sideline.

If Gao Wen chooses the diagonal line, he can only play blindly based on his feeling.

No wonder Federer's attention was all on the forehand position to block the straight line.

So, how should Gawain choose?

It seemed that the entire world was reduced to this straight line in front of him, and Federer was blocking this line like a giant dragon.
