Chapter 1940: Improvisation



"AD:40".

Gao Wen's game point——

On the other side of the net, Djokovic passed the ball back and forth continuously. His whole mental outlook seemed to be no different, but his footwork was mobilized and he attacked quickly.

First serve, close range and backhand pressure.

Although it was a first serve, the speed was not fast, only 173 kilometers per hour. There was not much difference between the first serve and the second serve, which did not surprise Djokovic.

So this became an opportunity for Djokovic to steal the serve.

Djokovic realized that Gawain was making clever arrangements and using maneuvers to consume his opponent's energy and launch a counterattack. He needed to respond, he needed to put an end to Gawain's speculations, he needed to change the situation at a tactical level, and he needed to attack boldly to disrupt Gawain's rhythm.

In fact, since the second set, Djokovic has rarely attacked and served.

However, things are different now.

Djokovic realized that Gawain was about to gain the upper hand, and Gawain also consciously started to change speed to try to break the balance.

Anyone who has experienced long-distance running or even marathons should know that if you keep running at a constant speed, the energy consumption is not obvious, but changing speed is fatal.

Therefore, in long-distance races, you can often see the leader constantly switching and changing speeds, using this method to achieve tactical consumption.

From the fourth set to the fifth set, Djokovic was always in a relatively uniform speed. The rhythm of the baseline ball was comfortable for him, and Gawain was never able to break the balance; but now, Gawain was in the dilemma of extreme physical strength, and he changed the rhythm by changing speed in a slow manner.

The balance is quietly broken.

Djokovic is experienced and realized Gawain's tactical intention at the first moment. Without waiting for Gawain to make any moves, he took the initiative.

So, without warning, like a bolt from the blue, Djokovic chose to speed up.

and!

Djokovic did not hesitate when it was time to strike. He took the risk of severely depleting his physical energy and struck decisively, showing a rare tough attitude.

This is another level of game play.

With a sideways step, his upper body leaned back to make room, and Djokovic quickly attacked with a two-handed backhand, and the whole rhythm was accelerated.

One top, one sweep.

Djokovic's tactical intention can be clearly seen from this shot. Even in the unbalanced state of his upper body leaning back, he still forced a straight line with his two-handed backhand, and took the opportunity of Gawain's serve to directly launch an offensive. It was sudden and powerful enough to break the balance of the confrontation again.

Bang.

The tennis ball flew straight along a straight line and penetrated into the gap of Gawain's forehand. Although the landing point was not extreme and there was still some space away from the blind spot, the dual threat of speed and line easily broke the balance, and Djokovic's tactical intention was realized without taking any risks.

After serving, Gao Wen, who had not yet regained his balance, was instantly put into a passive position, staggering across the court with long strides.

His knees were still trembling, and he didn't have enough strength to push off the ground, but Gawain didn't retreat or get timid. He gritted his teeth and continued to push off the ground with his knees straightened.

Push! Push! Push! The simplest and most basic movements at ordinary times, now seemed like being filled with lead, making it difficult to move forward. Every movement became heavy and clumsy.

Energy bursts out from every corner of the body, and the burning feeling deep in the soul spreads out majestically. Despite the difficulties, I never give up.

Push off, sprint, stretch.

Because he has no strength, Gao Wen can no longer slide and can only rely on leaning his upper body forward to extend the racket, which has been extended to the extreme.

Forehand, cut, salvage.

With a stumbling move, he rubbed the tennis ball with his forehand, forcibly pulling up its parabola.

The tennis ball flew back in a straight line, and although the route was good, it had no speed, no power, and even the rotation was not fast.

While waiting for the tennis ball to return to Djokovic's backhand, he switched his steps without hesitation and turned sideways to hit his forehand.

Heavy artillery attack.

Diagonal line, inside-out.

This kind of shot was the first time in the deciding set.

At this moment, we can see Djokovic's determination to instantly speed up and exert full pressure. It's not that he can't do it, but whether he is willing to do it.

The tennis ball went diagonally into the big triangle at the baseline of Gao Wen's backhand position, as fast as lightning. The backspin ball drilled into the ground like a mole, creating sparks through friction.

Huh! Not to mention Gawain, even the Arthur Ashe Stadium, which was completely immersed in the frenzy of the whole stadium, could feel the sudden change in rhythm and speed.

There was a cry of surprise.

However, before the sound could be uttered, two figures were seen on the court.

On one side, Djokovic was going to the net, pressing at full speed, a strategy that was completely different from the fourth and fifth sets, and the entire round was completely compressed.

On one side, Gawain was running across the field, rushing from one end to the other. His stumbling steps were shaky, but he did not give up, instead he ran faster and faster.

Two streaks of light formed a "T" shape, making full use of the vertical and horizontal axes of the net. Then Djokovic was seen stuck in position in front of the net, lowering his center of gravity, getting close to the net, concentrating his attention, and converging with the attention of the entire audience, while looking towards the figure on the opposite side.

Tap, tap, tap, tap—

Gawain's speed has reached its limit at this stage, but Djokovic's sideways forehand power has also fully exploded, forming a clear suppression.

Speed ​​up.

Speed ​​up! Speed ​​up again! Reaching the extreme speed unexpectedly ignited his potential, and he arrived at the destination in a flash, and then, he probed out for the second time in a row.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Keep the upper body parallel to the ground, push the body forward with your feet, and use your hands to guide forward like rockets, extending and extending again.

Getting closer.

Closer! Then, Djokovic moved, too.

Right side.

Move sideways.

straight line.

Djokovic noticed Gawain's early shot and subconsciously moved sideways to intercept the straight line, his body leaping out directly.

In the sight, Gawain's body has already escaped the pull of gravity, his continuous footsteps are almost flying, and the racket has completed the contact with the ball.

Straighten your forearm and hook your wrist——

Bang.

It's just a short touch, a hook with the wrist strength before the tennis ball breaks free and before the body loses control.

The tennis ball flew out.

The trajectories of two lights and shadows can be clearly seen in the field of vision.

A right lateral move.

A right side piercing.

However, they are located on both sides of the court, forming a mirror image and staggered positions.

Slash!

Gawain hit a diagonal shot, dribbled past Djokovic, and then the tennis ball and Djokovic were out of place.

Slowly, slowly, and swayingly, the tennis ball passed over the net, fell quickly, and landed into the court, but there was no sound, only a roar.

Buzz.

Buzz buzz buzz.

The whole audience was silent.

Everything was so quiet that the audience began to doubt their own eyes, not sure what they were seeing, and temporarily forgot to breathe.

So, what happened? More precisely, how did it happen? Was it real? Or was it just a mirage in the heat wave, just an illusion? Until the voice of the referee Esdraki came from the microphone -

"Game, high."
