Chapter 1609 Special Offer on Grassland

It's high and floating, with no rotation or control. It's just wrapped in a tape and pushed back. The only praiseworthy advantage is the depth of the pressure. The landing point is still controlled in the deep area close to the bottom line, so it's not useless.

Dimitrov's handling of this shot was slightly off track.

Everything was as expected by Gawain. Gawain naturally had no reason to miss it. He immediately followed up with small steps and struck out with his forehand.

Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw Dimitrov subconsciously moving his center of gravity towards the backhand position, and Gawain did not hesitate to take action.

With one kick and one welcome, relying on the pressure of the body, the forehand strikes flat from the high point, and with the power of the wrist swing, the lightning strikes.

slash.

Gao Wen once again chose to return to Dimitrov's forehand diagonally, insisting on implementing his tactical adjustments in the last two games, and continued to target the forehand position; moreover, this shot was fully exerted, and there was no reservation.

"Uh-huh!"

Dimitrov stopped and turned around suddenly, and a roar erupted from deep in his dantian.

As soon as the body is pulled, it returns to the forehand position. However, the characteristics of the grass make it difficult to completely stand still during sudden stops and turns, and the force of the ground is not sufficient, so the shots while moving at high speed are often prone to deviations. , Dimitrov is like this at this time.

The steps are unsteady.

Naturally, the power of the forehand swing was not sufficient. In the end, I just managed to swing it around and relied on the power of my forearm to quickly swing the belt and quickly grab a beat.

In this shot, strength and speed are not the focus. What is important is to use the force to quickly connect and compress the rhythm to complete the counterattack as quickly as possible.

Whoosh.

The tennis ball rushed out in a low parabola and flew close to the net.

Huh!

The whole audience exclaimed, because Gawain's hitting was already very good, but they didn't expect Dimitrov to still complete this shot at a low point, and also because Dimitrov's return arc was too low-key. It was really thrilling to be about to lower the net but then fly past the net belt.

This scene is completely special for grass.

Because of the low bounce, players often need to constantly lift the ball, but now young players have become accustomed to fast and flat shots on hard surfaces, so even on grass, if they are not careful, they can easily return to the hard-court mode and habitually hit the ball flat, ignoring Without the influence of low bounce, it will be easy to get off the net.

Occasionally, it won't hit the net, but often it will fly close to the net, comparable to a high-altitude steel wire. Even the players themselves are not sure when they will hit the net directly and when they will be lucky enough to pass by.

When watching a game live, your eyesight will definitely not be as clear as a live TV broadcast with 360-degree close-range magnification, which also means that it is easier to create illusions.

Therefore, in Wimbledon, you can often see this scene, with exclamations one after another, and you are about to get off the net, but it doesn't happen. The thrill is much more real and intense than a roller coaster.

However, Gawain did not lose his mind at all and remained highly focused——

After adjusting in small steps, his eyes quickly glanced at Dimitrov again. Sure enough, he saw Dimitrov's subconscious action of preparing to defend the backhand position again. He also unceremoniously completed the shot with one step.

Forehand, slash.

Another slash again.

Moreover, this time the diagonal line was a bit particular. Gawain did not continue to tear the angle apart, but instead pulled it back slightly, away from the sideline and bottom line.

There are two reasons.

Firstly, the quality of Dimitrov's return is good. If he continues to play fast, it will become more and more difficult to control. What Gao Wen is worried about is not that he can't withstand it, but that he will evolve out of the tactical layout and become a pure muscle. duel, then no one can predict the final trend of this point.

The second is to pave the way for your next shot.

No, as soon as the forehand shot was completed, Gawain took advantage of the situation and hit the net——

Likewise, this is also a special event on grass, relying on the net to break the rhythm of the round, and finally deciding the winner in front of the net, becoming a scenery on the grass.

But in this game, this is the first time Gao Wen takes the initiative to go online.

Situation, sudden change.

Dimitrov was a little in a hurry. First, he did not expect that Gao Wen would suppress his forehand with three shots in a row. Then he did not expect Gao Wen to follow the ball to the net. Then he felt the impact of Gao Wen's return ball to suppress the deep area and squeeze the ball. The space caused the pace adjustment to be a little hasty.

Everything changes rapidly.

It's too fast, everything is too fast.

Dimitrov didn't have time to react at all. After barely stopping and turning, he had to hit the ball quickly and find a way to break the net.

"ah!"

In the flash of lightning, Dimitrov didn't have time to think about it. He squatted down completely and lowered his center of gravity to ensure that he would not miss the hitting point. Then he quickly struck out with a forehand diagonal, but this time it was slightly different.

Considering that Gao Wen was blocking the ball in front of the net, his return needed to bypass Gao Wen's block and ensure that it could pass the net. Therefore, Dimitrov did not choose to hit flat, but instead pulled up an arc and tried to bypass the ball. After passing Gawain's coverage, he completed the breakthrough from the diagonal top of Gawain's right forehand position.

The whole audience held their breath and turned their heads in the direction of the tennis ball, and then they saw Gawain——

Step on tiptoe, jump, move sideways.

The arms are completely stretched out, and the body has been extended to the extreme. Taking advantage of the height and arm length to the extreme, the interception is completed diagonally above the head.

Rub the racket gently. Although the body cannot exert force, the wrist wrapping is very delicate and light. It looks like just a tap. Then, the ball is completed, and the tennis ball has been wrapped with a series of spins and reactions. The force rebounded and flew back.

Time and space stagnated in an instant——

change.

It was spinning smoothly, but I couldn't feel any force at all on the tennis ball. It completely relieved the force, crossed the net lightly, and then fell vertically.

Landed, stagnant.

Score.

Dimitrov's footsteps were firmly nailed to the bottom line, without any chance; Gao Wen showed a wonderful handling touch in front of the net. He completed the control with just one touch. It seemed easy and freehand, but in fact he was thundering for this. One point ended, and the balance was broken without warning.

ah!

Pullan clenched his fists and roared, standing up instantly, staring at the court with scorching eyes, releasing all his emotions without reservation or taboo.

Obviously, she is not alone. From her sight, she can see the audience in Stadium No. 1 raising their arms and cheering, standing up and applauding. The faces of shocked and surprised faces are intertwined together, and a mighty boiling wave sweeps over the whole place. This heat wave is actually Incredibly, it climbed to a higher level again and ignited the whole audience.

"40:AD".

The break point appeared.

After saving two set points, Gao Wen relied on a stroke of inspiration to get the first break point of the first set in the most grass-court style. The real critical moment came.

This also means that Dimitrov's test is coming.

Shh!

There was no need for the referee to remind the audience. The audience reminded each other to keep quiet. The cheers and shouts quickly subsided. The whole place fell into silence again, staring intently at the court. Thousands of burning eyes were directed towards Dimitro. Husband and Gawain rushed down.
