Match Point

-boom!

The heart exploded.

My mind kept roaring.

It was so crisp and straightforward that the entire Arthur Ashe Stadium fell into the same rhythm and state. They reflexively clenched their fists, raised their arms, stood up and roared loudly.

"ah!"

Get carried away.

Qiao Wangsheng only felt the hot blood burning all over his body. Everything else no longer mattered, he just cheered heartily.

"ah!"

"ah!"

Over and over again.

Even if you are mentally prepared, even if you are full of expectations, even if you are already excited in advance, when you actually witness this scene with your own eyes...

After all, it's still different.

From being the first to suffer a break of serve and falling behind, he steadily regained his form and completed the break, and then continued to resolve the crisis and showed a tough attitude, first holding serve and then getting a break point.

Ups and downs!

Magnificent!

This is only the first set of the game, but it’s already so exciting!

Qiao Wangsheng is no longer himself, but a part of Arthur Ashe Stadium. His body, spirit, and soul are completely integrated with the heat wave of the entire stadium.

cheer!

jump!

celebrate!

The overwhelming red wave unleashed its power with bared teeth and claws.

"30:40".

Whoosh. Huhhhhhhhhhhh.

On the court, Gawain was panting like an ox, his chest heaving violently, but his eyes were bright and firm as he looked to the other side of the court, watching Djokovic without giving an inch -

Show no weakness!

Indeed, Djokovic was confident of winning, but Gao Wen's high morale also refused to give in.

If you want to fight, I will fight!

Djokovic could feel the sparks in Gawain's eyes, and he looked back with his head held high, and his eyes briefly collided in the air.

Smoke filled the air.

Then, Djokovic withdrew his gaze, looked at the ball boy with a horrifying look, and asked for the tennis ball, exuding a dangerous aura—

The ball boy couldn't help being startled, so that his movements became slightly stiff. When he accidentally threw the tennis ball, it went off the track. Djokovic failed to catch it, and then he was in a hurry again.

Break point.

"The situation is still tense."

"Gao Wen is turning the situation around, but Djokovic's energy can never be underestimated. Especially in difficult times and crises, Djokovic can always perform at a higher level."

"Even against other giant players."

Hu Litao immediately grasped the key points, and Zhan Jun nodded repeatedly to make additions.

"Actually, just compare the two finals at Roland Garros and Wimbledon this year."

"In the Paris final, Wawrinka had fifteen break points and converted four times, while Djokovic had ten break points but only converted them twice."

"In the London final, Federer had seven break points but only converted once, but Djokovic had ten break points and converted four times."

"The performance above key points also showed the different results of the two finals."

"Djokovic's last serve was a little unexpected. As a result, Gao Wen only needed one break point to successfully break back. This is obviously not Djokovic's true level."

"In the second consecutive service game, Djokovic encountered a break crisis. This time, he will definitely make adjustments. Now it depends on how Gao Wen breaks the game."

Excited, excited, excited.

Even if it was just a verbal expression, the commentary booth could not control the surging emotions. The peak showdown in front of them was worthy of being the final battle of the annual Grand Slam.

The air at Arthur Ashe Stadium was completely tense.

On the court, Djokovic and Gauvin looked at each other and got ready.

Then, Djokovic serves—

Shoot the ball.

Djokovic's habit of hitting the ball came again, endlessly with no end in sight, but there was no sound at all, and the tension was extremely high.

It seems that the entire audience knows that this point is not only about maintaining the break advantage, but also about the battle for momentum, and no one is willing to give in.

Judging from the situation in the last three games, Gao Wen undoubtedly has the upper hand, and now it is Djokovic's turn to fight back.

Ten times.

Fifteen times.

Eighteen times.

The extremely long number of rackets finally settled on the number eighteen. Djokovic found his inner peace and threw the tennis ball into the air.

Break point, second zone, first serve—

Chasing the ball, the speed is 188 kilometers per hour.

Djokovic still showed his familiar appearance. At critical moments, he rarely pursued ACE or straight serve, but used the baseline to determine the outcome.

Gao Wen is not surprised, but this does not mean that Djokovic is unprepared. Relying on the deep position at the bottom line of the service area and strong top spin, this chasing serve still limits Gao Wen. hands and feet.

Although Gao Wen forced his body out of the way and used a forehand skateboard to hit the ball diagonally to apply pressure, the effect of the hit was average and did not reach the quality he expected.

Djokovic had been prepared for a long time. He raised his backhand with both hands and was about to strike with a heavy hammer. However, the moment he released his hand, he reduced his strength and used a flick to draw an arc, controlling the landing point to hit a straight line.

This is-

Paddle ball?

There is still no way to be 100% sure whether Djokovic has finally given up on the tactics he reformulated today and returned to his regular tactics, but at least it can be seen that Djokovic is more patient.

Generally speaking, the angrier and more impatient you are, the easier it is to lose patience. The more critical and critical the situation, the more you want to end the tactics as soon as possible.

But Djokovic and Murray are outliers, as are players such as Simon and Agut. At such moments, they tend to take more shots, deal more patiently, and finally find a winning opportunity.

Of course, this was just a shot, and Gawain was not ready to jump to conclusions casually, but his subconscious mind had already raised his attention and reminded himself to avoid acting too hastily.

Focused, immersed, steady—

A stalemate is formed.

Gauvin tried to suppress Djokovic's forehand, and Djokovic tried to suppress Gauvin's backhand. The two players kept switching between diagonals and straight lines.

Moreover, the line selection is not radical. There is a large safe space from the sideline and the bottom line. The main purpose is to limit the opponent through line combination and rhythm changes.

Eight beats.

Fifteen beats.

Both players are masters of the baseline. Accurate prediction and precise control form a deadlock. The accumulation of advantages and the offset of disadvantages are often within a beat.

Twenty beats.

Twenty-seven beats.

In fact, both players have opportunities -

Djokovic's forehand shot created an opportunity, and he immediately followed the ball to the net. As a result, Gao Wen resolved the dilemma with a straight shot, and Djokovic immediately returned to the baseline.

Gao Wen's backhand with both hands suppressed the blind spot in a straight line, and the fast and heavy hitting made Djokovic extremely embarrassed, but the world's number one forehand shot directly hit the straight line and landed repeatedly in the deep area to force him to retreat. Gawain.

From offense to defense, from defense to offense, you cannot relax in every shot, so there are fewer opportunities, and you naturally need to be more cautious in your shots.

In the blink of an eye, the round had exceeded 30 beats, which undoubtedly became the longest round in the first set. It was also the first turning point since the start of the game. Whoever can win will have the upper hand.

The Arthur Ashe Stadium was filled with anxiety, and the audience's heads were swaying left and right following the flight of the tennis ball, and the neat trend was like robots.

Then-

Djokovic exerted his strength.

Excited, excited, excited.
