Chapter 582: Towards Victory

Ping! Bang!

Ping! Bang!

The back-and-forth hitting changed the rhythm, from Kubert and Lindsted's continuous high pressure at the net to Gawain and Thiem's ​​two-on-one at the net.

Then, tennis became badminton.

Lindsted to Gawain, Gawain to Lindsted, Lindsted to Thiem, Thiem to Kubert... Thiem suddenly pressed a deep ball, and Kubert rushed to the baseline, so that Kubert was caught off guard and hit a backhand with both hands. Because of the tight hitting rhythm, there was almost no time to swing the racket, and the quality of the final return ball was significantly reduced.

Chance!

Thiem's ​​eyes lit up and he immediately followed suit, pushing his forehand forward, preparing to push it into the blind spot of Kubert's forehand baseline to challenge for the winning point.

but!

Tim was too eager, and his forward movement speed was not fast enough, so he pressed too hard with his forehand. As a result,

Lower the net.

Oh! The audience couldn't believe their eyes. They all held their heads and cried out in disbelief. Who could have thought that after Gawain and Thiem had resisted the barrage of high-pressure balls, they turned from defense to offense, but finally made a mistake at the net and lost the point. This plot was really: I never expected it.

Gao Wen was also stunned. His knees softened and he lay on the ground in a "spread" shape. However, he couldn't control his laughter in his chest. He laughed wildly, happily, helplessly and exhaustedly.

Tim slumped his shoulders and covered his face with one hand. A series of incomprehensible German words came out of his mouth. He walked quickly towards Gawain, his face full of regret. "Sorry, sorry, sorry." He stretched out his right hand and pulled Gawain up. The desperate expression on his face made Gawain laugh unscrupulously and sincerely.

Tim helplessly looked at his friend who was laughing at him. He was filled with grief and anger but couldn't vent it. In the end, he couldn't help but laugh too.

"I'm a fool, God."

"Domi...hahahahaha."

Gawain tried to comfort Tim, but he couldn't stop laughing. Then he saw Lindstedt and Kubert on the other side of the net also came to comfort Tim. Tim was even more embarrassed. He wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground. How could such a low-level mistake appear in the game? Gawain high-fived Lindstedt and Kubert respectively, with a smile still on his face, but his emotions finally calmed down. He turned around and patted Tim on the shoulder.

"Domi, don't be so nervous, just enjoy the game. The audience is applauding, aren't they?"

Indeed, competitive sports are about winning and losing, and about fighting, but occasionally, very, very occasionally, it doesn’t hurt to have a little bit of entertainment.

This has always been the case with Gawain.

Following Gawain's line of sight, Tim looked up and saw that all the spectators in Court No. 2 were standing up and applauding enthusiastically. The whistles and cheers were endless. He felt helpless and amused, looking at Gawain with a depressed face, but he couldn't help laughing in the end.

Facing the break point, from absolute disadvantage to turning the situation around and then to mistakes and giving away points, the sparks that burst out in the doubles match were vividly displayed, but in the end, Lindsted and Kubert successfully saved the first break point, and the atmosphere on the No. 2 court reached its peak.

Although Gawain, who played at home, was the one who lost points, his thrilling answer still successfully ignited the enthusiasm of the audience -

A wonderful game always makes the audience temporarily forget about the outcome and applaud sincerely for both sides’ wonderful performances.

Next, there is a second break point.

It was still Kubert serving, but this time it was Thiem receiving.

In the second zone, Kubert served a close forehand serve, which made it difficult for Thiem to swing the racket freely, and he barely returned the ball in a straight line with his forehand.

On both break points, Kubert's serve quality was particularly high and he successfully suppressed his opponent, but this time, Thiem made mistakes.

Because Lindsted predicted that Thiem would return the ball diagonally and moved sideways to block the net, Thiem turned his body and hit a straight line, breaking through Lindsted's blockade and returning the ball successfully into the zone. Moreover, because the return line was short and fell in the serving area, Kubert had to move forward quickly to hit the ball, which also created a little trouble.

Kubert adjusted his steps continuously, cut into the deep area and landed on Thiem's ​​backhand.

Thiem was in complete singles mode, raising his hand to exert force with a one-handed backhand, violently sweeping the ball diagonally and crashing directly into Lindstedt.

Lindsted appeared to be experienced. He was very close to the website, taking a step forward and pressing forward, using the strength of his body to create a wall, and then hitting the tennis ball back into the court with a wall-like impact, which was as dazzling as a table tennis ball.

Gao Wen was standing in the front half of the court and had no time to react. He used a forehand roll and hit the ball using the rebound to pick up the tennis ball.

However, none were able to get over the top.

After two consecutive small steps, Lindsted had found the hitting point above his head; moreover, Kubert was also in position. Fearing that Gawain's high ball would go over the top, Kubert took a series of small steps sideways and found the hitting point behind Lindsted.

As a result, Lindstedt got there before Kubert and hit the ball hard from the air with a high pressure.

straight line!

Thiem's ​​footwork was very quick, and he immediately moved sideways as a reflex to fill the gap on his forehand and prepare to defend the high-pressure ball.

The unexpected happened.

Lindstedt's high-pressure ball landed too shallowly, just near Gawain's left foot. Gawain didn't notice Thiem moving behind him at all, and quickly adjusted with small steps. After missing the rebound, he hit the ball with his forehand near his shoulder with his arm folded.

His whole body was curled up pitifully, his racket swing was completely contracted and he couldn't stretch it out at all. He just relied on the power of turning his body and the swing of his arms to push and pull, and completed the shot before Tim could defend.

state.

Even the sound of hitting the ball is not crisp.

However, the small swing of the racket compressed the hitting time to the extreme, and between opening and closing the eyes, the tennis ball had already jumped back.

Fall into the gap.

Kubert and Lindstedt stood in overlapping positions, one in front of the other, and the entire forehand gap was completely clear. Everyone just watched the tennis ball fall into the gap.

Score, break! Boom! In an instant, the entire Court No. 2 was boiling again. Two incredible good shots appeared on the break points one after another. They stood up and applauded reflexively, and whistles and cheers swept in.

What? How did this happen? Everything happened so fast and so wonderfully!

Gao Wen's action was completely a reflex, and he didn't even realize that he was able to complete the shot and score. He was stunned for a moment:

How did all this happen? It was full of fantasy, as if I saw the Mad Hatter jumping around and performing magic in front of me.

Gawain turned to look at Tim: What is going on?

Tim looked at Gawain with wide eyes: I don’t know either.

Kubert and Lindsted exchange glances: Who am I? Where am I? What are we doing? 　The eighth update.
