Chapter 274: Extreme Attack
Snap. Snap. Snap On the second serve, Gao Wen's ping time was obviously extended. On the one hand, he needed to stabilize his emotions, and on the other hand, he needed to sort out his tactics.
The professional tour and the NCAA are different after all. Even the scorching heat floating in the air is different, and my palms are slightly sweaty.
Throw the ball! Bend your knees! Push off the ground! Turn! Swing!
The tennis ball went into the sun, and Gawain stretched his arms out completely. He could feel the extension of his muscles like an ancient Greek statue, and then he hit the ball! Inside corner.
Gao Wen obviously chose a tactical serve. He clearly still had some energy left, but he did not hit the ball with all his strength. Instead, he used the racket face to quickly create rotation, aiming for a landing point close to the center line of the serving area.
The most important thing is that after landing, it still rotated outwards towards Zverev's right side.
What about Zverev? With one big step, Zverev threw his body to the right, and then he found that the trajectory of the tennis ball continued to turn to the right.
Another big step! Zverev's entire upper body stretched out, and because Gawain gave up speed and power, the entire serve was slow and a little floating, but his big step still allowed him to arrive in time, and he cut the tennis ball back with a machete-like cut.
long.
long.
The tennis ball drew a full parabola, deep and heavy, and forced Gao Wen's steps that were about to enter the baseline back to the back of the baseline. Then the tennis ball fell vertically half a step inside the baseline, bounced back and then bounced up.
It can be seen that the force of the rebound was not sufficient and the bounce height was limited. Gawain had no way to hit the baseline and land with high pressure. Moreover, the awkward height made it difficult for him to exert force. He just used his forehand to hit a moon ball in a transitional manner, which flew towards the diagonal position.
The quality of Gao Wen's transition ball was slightly insufficient and it was not pressed deep enough.
Zverev reached his backhand position in two big steps. Before his steps were in place, he had already quickly brushed his backhand with both hands. He did not exert full power, but the speed of the racket head was very fast. At the last moment of the shot, he made a pushing wrist movement outward.
bass.
The tennis ball flew out in a small diagonal line, shallow and thin, not only aiming at the position of Gawain's return ball, forcing Gawain to pull back his steps as he was preparing to return to the middle and enter a defensive state, but also it was a light hit without full force, resulting in the power being unloaded, and the tennis ball had almost no rebound force after landing.
This is the true ability of Zverev's backhand. He can hit, push and cut. His delicate and stable handling is more powerful than his forehand.
Ah! Gawain's steps were obviously a little staggering, and he took small steps to control his body, but he had enough time to move horizontally, but not vertically.
Because Zverev's return was too shallow.
Finally, Gawain couldn't catch up, so he simply took a lunge and thrust his entire center of gravity forward, then used the racket to cut the gap between the tennis ball and the ground. Before the tennis ball was about to hit the ground, he made a quick horizontal cut, fully utilizing the strength of his wrist to complete the friction, cut a low diagonal line and flew back.
etc!
Zverev is pressing at the net!
But it was too late.
Gawain's quick turn around to complete the shot had already drawn all his attention. He had no time to observe Zverev's position. When he was waiting for the cut to be completed, he noticed that Zverev had already rushed in front of the net, suppressing the ball. His return ball could not avoid Zverev.
Oops.
Gawain immediately sounded the alarm!
Even though Gawain's cut was very thin this time, he knew that Zverev only needed to push the ball lightly to complete the return, because the space for his swing just now was too narrow, the side spin was not added, and the backspin when the ball fell sharply over the net was not added. The rotation was not enough, and the threat was not enough.
What to do? Push off the ground! Stand up straight! Gawain pushed off his right leg in a lunge and immediately stood up like a spring. The more critical the moment, the more focused he became. He had no time to think about match points or championships. He was completely focused on this shot and what he should do.
Tap tap tap.
Tap, tap, tap! Gawain's lateral movement speed exploded, and he rushed sideways at lightning speed.
Because his forehand was open, Zverev had no reason to push his backhand. Obviously, the forehand was the easier and more reasonable choice.
The wind is howling.
The entire court turned into a ball of light and shadow. Gawain could only see Zverev and the tennis ball. He could clearly feel the force of pushing off the ground and the continuous bumps as he ran at full speed on his Hot Wheels.
Then--
One block and one push! As expected, Zverev waited for the return ball in front of the net, and with a two-handed backhand, he gently pushed the ball. The tennis ball, which had no power, was easily changed in its flight path and pushed out in a straight line.
The only regret is that Zverev did not pursue perfection, and the straight line was not completely straightened. However, due to lack of depth, a shallow ball effect was accidentally created. Because there was no power, there was no bounce after landing, and the hitting space given to Gawain was naturally smaller and narrower.
Tap, tap, tap! Gao Wen's lateral sprint had reached its limit, and his attention was highly focused, but it was obviously too late, and the tennis ball was about to hit the ground and form two jumps.

His lungs were burning! His feet were flying! At this moment, Gao Wen took a big step forward with his right leg, almost doing a split. His upper body was fully extended along with the swinging motion. In the space of a racket from the ground, he barely reached the tennis ball with the racket head. At the same time, he used the force of his forearm to drive the explosion of wrist muscles.
A pull! A charge! Ahhhh! In a flash, you can see that the muscles from Gawain's forearms to his palms are completely tense. The streamlined lines contain incredible explosive power, and also hide the light and flexible delicate control. He forcibly increases the speed of the racket head to the extreme, and then fully utilizes the inertia of his body to hit it, completing the final push.
In the extreme state, an incredible force burst out from the body! Whoosh! Wow! A light sound of breaking through the air came to my ears, and then I could see the tennis ball flying in a streamlined straight line.
He rushed out with a loud noise.
Zverev realized immediately that something was wrong and stretched out both hands for a backhand, but Gawain's ball was too fast and too powerful, and it went straight out. His own hand movement was half a beat slow, so he could only watch the tennis ball pass by him.
Boom! The ball landed within a palm's reach of the sideline, breaking the net successfully! The air in the entire stadium froze for a moment, and everyone's eyes turned toward the sideline referee, and then they could see the referee firmly making a gesture of clasping his hands together:
Within the boundaries!
Gao Wen seized the first match point.
"Game, great! 6:2, 6:0..." The referee's voice announcing the result of the game came without hesitation, and then was drowned out by the cheers of the audience and could no longer be heard.
The game is over.
Winner!
He won! Champion!
