Chapter 917 Sharp Contrast

It was rare for Murray to choose to serve and attack. When facing a break point, Murray's shot was very determined and tough.

Most importantly, precision.

Murray's forehand shot directly hit a blind spot in the big triangle of the baseline. He did not use his full strength, but instead used point control to make full use of the court.

Judging from the movement trend, Gawain was moving towards his forehand position on the right, so there was no need to turn, but Murray captured a key point: in order to receive the serve, Gawain threw his body out, and his center of gravity was in an unbalanced state. In order to defend the next shot, he must stand in place to adjust his steps and center of gravity.

This is a pause.

Then Gawain started again, sprinting sideways, and had to accelerate again—

Running at a variable speed is always more difficult and more exhausting than running at a constant speed.

This is the gap.

It is precisely because of this that Murray did not exert force blindly, but instead accurately selected a landing point in an attempt to control the situation.

Gao Wen was indeed in a very awkward situation. He was moving at full speed and could even feel his internal organs were bumping and colliding. Judging from the distance he moved, he should be able to touch the ball in time, but he didn't have much space to swing his racket.

How to deal with it?

Gao Wen chose to throw his body out, and did not prepare to make an emergency stop to complete a solid hit. He swung the racket following the inertia of his body rushing forward.

The right hand was like a roc spreading its wings, sweeping across the enemy lines.

If you cannot actively exert force, use the inertia of sprinting and gravity to complete the force.

There was no passivity or conservatism. Not only that, he also showed the determination to fight to the death in difficult situations, and his entire strokes were smooth and flowing.

Bang! The tennis ball hits back, hard and fast, with plenty of power.

While passively defending, Gao Wen also hit a shot that was both defensive and offensive.

Slash!

Moreover, the ball was pressed against the baseline. Because it was on the inside of the baseline, the line of sight could accurately determine that it was a line-pressing ball, so that the audience couldn't help but exclaimed.

Murray, despite moving into position in time, was clearly squeezed in his shots.

Then, Murray retreated conservatively and hit a straight forehand shot.

transition.

Murray is Murray, he prefers defense and tug-of-war rather than offense.

Both players faced the ball from the blind spot at the baseline, both used their forehand to handle it, and both were not in the best hitting position, but the two players handled the ball in stark contrast.

In fact, Murray had more and bigger hitting space than Gawain, but Murray still chose to be conservative and tried to slow down the pace of the round again.

This was exactly what Gawain intended, so even though he returned the ball straight to his backhand and hit the open space, and the inertia of the previous shot pulled his feet out of the singles line, Gawain still managed to get there in time.

The dazzling movement made the audience hold their breath.

It seemed like in the blink of an eye, Gao Wen had already gone from one end of the court to the other.

A push! Gao Wen did not show any mercy, even though the hitting point and the shooting position were still a little lacking, but his two-handed backhand was very firm and even bold.

straight line!

Deep area!

Blind spot!

Gawain supported his body with his left leg, and he completely rotated his body like a red-crowned crane. His blue jersey bloomed like waves, and his eyes could clearly capture the shape of the wind. He attacked with force for the second consecutive shot, caught Murray's transition ball, and took action directly.

Ah! Zhang Sheng didn't realize that he was almost about to scream out. He used all his strength to control the scream, but the sound still buzzed in his chest, and the whole world was spinning.

Blind spot!

Gawain, it’s almost time.

Such a bold and adventurous shot landed accurately in the big triangle of Murray's forehand baseline, showing an incredibly delicate hitting feel.

Not only did he dare to take action, but he also believed in himself. In the clash of strong opponents, Gao Wen once again demonstrated his courage and determination.

pretty!

Zhang Sheng almost wanted to clap his hands in praise.

It was obvious that Murray was in a passive position. His forehand was squeezed, his racket swing was incomplete, and he hit the rebound ball defensively.

This time, Murray paid the price for his defensive mentality. He did not anticipate Gawain's shot selection at all. In the face of Gawain's aggressive shots, Murray's layout and calculations were obviously suppressed by the power and speed, so that he fell into trouble.

Passive, very very passive.

Then, the tennis ball flew high into the air—

Parabola, not suppressed!

High and floating!

All eyes in the audience looked up and were immersed in the brilliant white light.

Dazzling.

I closed my eyes involuntarily, and when I opened them again, I saw that the tennis ball had fallen to the ground.

Pressing the line!

It actually hit the line!

Murray's defensive rebound also showed unparalleled touch control. He actually pulled out an ultra-high arc loop and controlled the tennis ball in the deep baseline area of ​​the diagonal area.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

And, pressing the line! Perhaps, Murray and Gao Wen are two different players. Murray is used to defense. In an extremely passive predicament, he can still control the situation.

"Attack vs. Defense".

Both players showed top touch, not only making full use of the entire court, but also showing the beauty of different styles and methods of tennis.

Wonderful!

It was absolutely amazing! You could clearly see the audience was eager to move and almost screamed; but they finally controlled themselves in time because they didn't want to disturb Murray——

Not Gawain.

Here, Gao Wen's footsteps had adjusted themselves while moving back and forth at a constant speed. He arrived at the position steadily and in time, and found the hitting point again.

Although Murray's return was deep and high, Gawain showed no mercy and took a run-up and jumped high into the air.

Sweep.

A forehand sweep attack that is suspended in the air, finding the most comfortable and accurate hitting point by jumping, and then pressing down directly from top to bottom at the high point.

The shot was stunning! In this shot, one could vaguely see the typical forehand style of Federer and Del Potro, which was not only strong but also elegant. The smooth strokes were completed in one go. The strong wind blew Gao Wen's wet short hair, and it seemed as if one could see the smile on the corner of his mouth.

Then--

The tennis ball turned into an arrow and flew across the court.

Slash!

Still suppressing Murray's forehand, the tactical intention is very clear!

The third consecutive attack, tough and sharp.

However! This time, Murray caught it accurately——

Forehand. Forehand. And more forehand.

Murray's prediction was very accurate. He made a feint and moved to the left, but kept his center of gravity light. With a step and force from his left leg, his body returned to the forehand position. For Murray, whose physical strength had not yet fully recovered, such an accurate prediction was crucial.

Then, Murray faced Gawain's thunderous shot head-on.

For a moment, the whole audience held their breath.

Murray also deeply felt the layers of pressure from Gawain. Just like a spring, after being compressed to the extreme, it will begin to rebound. Murray chose to fight back.

Push off the ground! Turn! Swing the racket!

Take action!

"Power vs. Power"! Murray showed his toughness in a rare show, confronting head-on, with energy bursting out from deep in his dantian, followed by a roar.

"ah!"

Murray, come on.

As wonderful as Gawain's forehand attack is, so rare is Murray's forehand confrontation. The collision between the two strong opponents was about to break out, and the whole audience was heated up.
