Match point

Chapter 37 Impressed
Gently, Gao Wen jumped on the spot, moved his limbs, and warmed up briefly. Compared with the duel itself, the warm-up is undoubtedly more important, because it is an important part to avoid injuries. Kyrgios was inexplicably injured.

He looked up and glanced at Kyrgios across the court.

At this time, the stadium was completely cleared, and Sharapova and others had already taken their seats in the players' bench, leaving the entire field to Gawain and Kyrgios.

The players and fans at the scene were all sharp-eyed. From Gao Wen's simple warm-up actions, it could be seen that this was not a completely amateur audience. The whole world booed and cheered, and the atmosphere was very hot.

Kyrgios seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere, too.

He is also enjoying the sight of the stage, moving frivolously back and forth on the baseline, imitating ants on a hot pot with small steps, and finally stops and is ready to receive the serve, but the swinging movement is like rowing a boat Generally speaking, the waves of Honghu Lake are full of joy.

From expressions to movements, there was a frightening aura all over his body, provoking Gao Wen's nerves all the time.

This works better than the middle finger.

So, how did Gao Wen respond?

Snapped.Snapped.Snapped.

Gao Wen bent down and slapped the tennis ball regularly. The sound of slapping the ball echoed under the blue sky, slowly letting the noise of the audience settle down. He didn't look at Kyrgios' movements at all, because there was no meaning at all, and he would If you get distracted, just focus on yourself.

Bend your knees and toss the ball.

Kick off the ground and turn around.

The whole serving movement is done in one go, the power of kicking the ground and the strength of the calf penetrates from the ground all the way to the arm, completing a standard serving movement.

Kyrgios raised his eyebrows slightly, as if the elders were watching a child playing a monkey show, and there was a hint of joking and weighing in his eyes:
Oh?The serving action still looks a bit like it!It's not bad to be so confident in the face of professional players, but the speed and strength are almost meaningless...

boom!
state!
The mustard-yellow tennis ball turned into a long beam of light and hit the inner corner of the teeing area. It was fast and urgent, like a rocket, and it shot straight up.

boom!
The tennis ball hit the backboard of the field directly, making a loud noise.

Kyrgios: ? ? ?

Kyrgios, who was still scratching his head and posing for a second, couldn't help but froze in place, and was submerged in question marks the next second, maintaining a graceful and smooth "S" curve with a face full of astonishment, and all voices and thoughts fell into a state of stagnation. Will not be able to turn the corner for a while:
what just happened?
ACE ball!
It turned out to be an ACE ball!
boom!
Thunderous applause!

The audience was all excited. Although Kyrgios was putting on a show, the start of receiving the serve was obviously slow, but an ace was an ace. Gawain's clean and tidy serve can really tell the level, not to mention the standard serve The action exudes the breath of a professional player.

clap clap clap!
There was thunderous applause, and everyone couldn't hold back the excitement and excitement. There were even whistles and cheers mixed in, and the air was boiling with it.

At any time and in any game, it is worth encouraging to start with an ACE ball; what's more, what about an ordinary audience playing against a professional player?

Show, it's really too showy!
Macdonald was calmer. After all, he was an NCAA player. He also knew that Kyrgios had not put his attitude right, which made it easier for Gao Wen to serve to a certain extent.

But to say the least, a good performance is a good performance, and an ace is an ace.

If it was him, it would be difficult to maintain concentration in the face of Kyrgios' provocation and interference. Not to mention ACEs, it is a good thing not to miss the serve, which also proves that Gao Wen is excellent, so he clenched his fists, Shouting along with the audience.

hoo hoo hoo!
Cheers came rolling in.

Kyrgios was a little embarrassed, obviously he didn't expect Gawain to be able to issue an ACE at such a speed.

What needs special attention is that the tennis serve action is very, very difficult, and even amateur players need to practice for many years before they can get started.

For most ordinary amateurs, it is either a light toss, and then barely hitting the tennis ball, without strength or speed.

Or use the underhand serve, that is, like a badminton serve, from bottom to top, let the tennis ball draw a parabola and fly across the net.

Generally speaking, the downhand serve has no power and speed to speak of, the landing point is very shallow, and the rebound height is very low. For professional players, it can basically kill with one shot.

But very, very occasionally, there will be an underhand serve in the professional arena.

What needs special attention in professional games is that the receiving side often stands relatively behind because of the great power of the serve, which also means that if the serve is served with the first hand, the landing point is too shallow, the bounce is too low, and the starting speed is slightly slower , but may not be able to catch up.

It is precisely because of this that the underhand serve is often not used in the professional arena:

Although this is not an action explicitly prohibited by the official rules-because once it is seen through, it is basically the receiving party who directly shoots the score, and the serving party will suffer the loss; but it is generally considered to be an immoral trick.

To put it simply, it can be regarded as a sneak attack by villains. For the "gentlemen's sport" tennis, it is indeed out of style and not open enough.

Even hopeful games seldom happen, but only in special circumstances, when young players are exhausted and no longer have the strength to push the ground, they will have no choice but to serve the ball.

However, amateur games are very common.

Kyrgios thought that Gawain would make an underhand serve, and he could catch up slowly, but Gawain served a standard serve in an upright manner, and he was caught off guard.

deep impression.

However, Kyrgios quickly found a reason for himself: he made a mistake, he was not serious just now, so he made a wrong judgment.

"Good luck."

Kyrgios showed a smile at Gawain, still maintaining a superior posture, and even gave Gawain a thumbs up.

Gao Wen didn't mind pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, so he spread his hands and showed a big smile, as if he didn't know how the ACE was issued.

Seeing Gao Wenyun's indifferent appearance, Kyrgios curled his lips, showing a contemptuous smile, turned around and asked the caddy for two balls, and then prepared to serve.

Raising his head, Kyrgios glanced at Gawain and noticed that Gawain was standing relatively back——

Obviously, Kyrgios is still afraid of Kyrgios' powerful and powerful serve, and needs to stretch his position to ensure time for judgment and reaction.

But in the eyes of Kyrgios, such an action is ridiculous. The opponent is an ordinary fan. If he really goes all out, then no matter how serious the opponent is, he still cannot form a confrontation, right?
