Chapter 1618 The Moment of Suffocation

"Bah! Dimi!"

"Bah! Dimi!"

Court One, crazy, they've gone completely crazy.

Dimitrov, fighting——

In the second set, he was the first to suffer a break of serve, but he found a way to break back, and fought hard to hold on to the score, and finally reached the tie-break.

In the tie-break, he was the first to encounter a mini-break, but he still gritted his teeth and improved his condition to complete the breakback, once again bringing the victory and defeat back to the same starting line.

Tough, focused, and fighting non-stop; most importantly, his smooth attack is so beautiful and perfectly interprets the essence of lawn tennis.

Who can refuse?

nobody.

Including Pulan.

In fact, Pulan was almost suffocated. The tension and excitement of the tie-break was simply hell. If she were usually at home, she would have hid in the kitchen; but now at the scene, she obviously couldn't leave her seat.

then--

Pulan had to hold his breath, cover his eyes with both hands, and secretly look through his fingers. The hot blood continued to rush toward his heart, so much so that his heart almost exploded, and his whole brain was in chaos.

Silently praying that Gawain can win the tiebreaker.

Looking at Dimitrov's chic and smooth attack, he couldn't help but fall into a whirlpool of anxiety, but even so, Plan still had to admit that Dimitrov's performance was indeed outstanding and worthy of applause and cheers.

If Gao Wen wants to win the tiebreaker, he must perform better.

--"ah!"

Dimitrov shouted out, relying on his forehand attack after serving to score another point, and also saved the set point, and the tie-break continued.

"6:6".

Following the points in the game, the tiebreaker also reached a stalemate. Two sets of six-to-six figures were side by side, clearly showing the entanglement of the game. The two players had to change venues for the second time, and the stalemate situation in the second set was still there. continue.

Tight, completely tight!

Both players gave top performances, but there is still no sign of a winning trend in the second set. Every subsequent point is a key point, and it depends on who has a stronger heart and can gain the upper hand in a confrontation on the edge of life and death.

ACE!

Dimitrov clenched his fist again and scored points in the simplest and most efficient way at the critical moment; moreover, this was a tiebreaker, and it was definitely worth a thousand dollars.

It can be seen from his body language and eye expressions that Dimitrov is focused and determined, and he is going all out for victory.

Not just because this is Wimbledon, not just because he has semi-final points to defend here and needs to prove himself again, but also because the player standing on the opposite side of the net is Gawain.

Precisely because that is his good friend, and precisely because Gawain has given him great help in the past few months, he needs to go all out.

This is the highest respect from friends, opponents, and even from competitive sports. An upright victory or defeat, burning souls and stirring up sparks. Amidst the intertwining and collision of various reasons, Dimitrov also found his best state. Inject this game without reservation.

Faith shines deep in the pupils.

"7: A set point for Dimitrov, but the next two points were Gawain's service points, and the balance was still not broken.

When the tie-break comes to this moment, every shot, every move can have a huge impact, and incredible pressure spreads on the court.

"7:7"!

In the inner corner of the second area, although there was no ACE, it destroyed Dimitrov's center of gravity, causing the return ball to be shallow. Gao Wen entered the court and found the baseline triangle with his forehand backslash to score directly. His crisp attack withstood the pressure. , saving inventory, the stalemate of back and forth is still going on.

Just like the first set, both players had wonderful performances to save the set. When the situation was stalemate until the end, everything depended on the performance of key points.

Then Dimitrov struck—

In the face-to-face duel of "Forehand VS Forehand", in the end, when Dimitrov was squeezed, he pulled the sideline with his forehand and passively hit a straight shot; but he incredibly pressed deep into the bottom line, forcing the high Wen's backhand shot while moving at high speed was not lifted enough and went directly to the net.

This shot is considered a lucky shot.

Because Dimitrov's return ball was suspected of going out of bounds, Gao Wen did not hear the linesman's call and immediately chose Hawkeye to challenge, and then looked at the linesman.

Facing Gawain's confused expression, the linesman looked very determined and signaled inbounds.

The entire audience, including Gawain and Dimitrov, stared with bated breath and kept making noises waiting for the on-site Eagle Eye replay system.

Amid the roaring anticipation, Hawkeye replay finally appeared on the big screen——

A strand of hair.

Even the eagle-eye system had to zoom in, zoom in, zoom in again, until finally the tennis ball could be seen brushing a hair against the sideline.

Huh!

There was an exclamation.

The audience couldn't believe their eyes. Such a weak scratch within the boundary was purely luck, and it was impossible to judge with the naked eye.

Across the court, Dimitrov's chin drooped slightly, and he quickly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, apologizing to Gawain.

Just like the miss in table tennis, such a shot is completely luck/accident. Players often express their apologies to each other. Although this is not a rule of the game, it is a kind of competitive etiquette. What's more, they are still good friends. Mitrov did not hide his surprise at all.

The smile on the corner of Gawain's mouth rose slightly, a little helpless, but when he looked at Dimitrov, he made a tear-dropping motion with the index and middle fingers of his right hand. The pitiful expression made Dimitrov look... He couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter. The atmosphere was very relaxed.

It would be a lie to say that I am not sorry. After all, it is really frustrating to encounter another mini-break in such a way and send out a set point.

However, Gawain remained focused. He knew that this was competitive sports. Whether the players liked it or not, luck was an integral part of the game. The only thing they should and could do was to continue to focus on the game and keep that point in their minds. Finally, enter the next point of the showdown.

"8:7".

For the second time in a row, Dimitrov got a set point; and, this time, the difference was that the next two points were Dimitrov's serving points.

The initiative lies with Dimitrov.

Court No. 1, after a brief period of shock and laughter, became quiet again, and the bustling crowd of people focused on the two players.

Zone 2, outer corner?

Careful commentators can immediately remember that in the first set, Dimitrov's first point, he chose the outside corner on the second serve. As a result, Gawain, who had predicted it in advance, accurately caught him. With a straight backhand, Dimitrov successfully broke through the Internet blockade and formed an ACE in returning the serve.

That point was wonderful; this point seemed familiar.

So, what about this time?

How should Dimitrov choose his tactics?

The tension and anxiety were heating up little by little, and in the blink of an eye they were close to the boiling point.

"Every second, everything is boiling, burning and exploding; however, there is no confusion or distraction in the entire No. 1 court. All the spectators are highly focused, integrated into it with excitement and excitement, and follow the ups and downs of the game." Raging.

Involuntarily, I held my breath.
