Chapter 1810 A Little Regretful

Little Zverev was a little confused, a little irritable, depressed, anxious and angry, but most of all he was still confused and confused, and the question marks in his head were about to explode.

On the front foot, Zverev spent countless efforts to finally secure his serve, break the "maximum consumption" curse, and finally find his voice——

Next thing he knew, he was ready to take off.

On the back foot, Gao Wen showed superior control and layout. Each serve and return game of his own not only improved his condition, but more importantly, he was able to walk leisurely and calmly, completely effortlessly. No need to exert force or take risks, just take the lead again.

There is no doubt that Gawain has shown his maturity in terms of tactical conception, game play and execution——

He doesn't even need to aim for extreme shots in the corners. He can easily take the initiative just through changes in lines and techniques.

Across the net, little Zverev, full of blood and passion, was running back and forth, but all his efforts were in vain.

Like a fool.

The last two games of the second set were completely different from the previous rhythm, form, and style, so much so that little Zverev couldn't figure it out at all.

"ah……"

After losing the break point and set point again, Zverev lost control again. He was angry at himself, the racket, the players' box, and the audience. All the anger in his chest was vented, but it seemed that I can’t express myself enough.

The professionals in the commentary booth are clear observers and can see the overall situation at a glance.

"There is no doubt that Gawain shows the qualities of a top player."

"He realized that there were subtle changes in the game situation, and made adjustments immediately. He used rhythm control to disrupt the opponent's upward momentum, regained control of the game, and gave his opponent a brand new topic."

"For little Zverev, this is a test, a severe test."

"He spent a lot of effort to stop the decline of consecutive game losses, but in the blink of an eye, the game was not what he was accustomed to, and then he lost the serve again and lost the second set victory."

"Zverev's morale has been hit again, and this is just when he has just ignited his fighting spirit. This frustration is doubled."

"In the next third set, Zverev needs to be cautious. The most important thing is not to lose concentration. He needs to think about the trend and situation of the second set, but he cannot dwell on failure."

"This is difficult, very difficult, but it is a test that Zverev must go through, otherwise the third set may end very quickly."

As professionals, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao completed their work conscientiously and did not favor anyone. They still gave Zverev opinions, but you can still feel the relaxation of the atmosphere between their words.

Since the first round draw was released, maybe they are not worried about Zverev Jr., but they cannot deny Zverev Jr.’s impact. What’s more, you need to be careful at all times in the first round of a Grand Slam match——

Yesterday's Kei Nishikori was a wake-up call.

Now, things have changed subtly.

Although Gao Wen still did not reach his best form, the dedication and concentration shown in this game and his control of the game trend are still encouraging.

Inadvertently, the tense heartstrings relaxed slightly.

Sure enough, Gao Wen is still worthy of trust. He endured countless pressures and difficulties in his journey to defend his title, and his first step was particularly steady and solid.

Soon, facts proved that Zhan Jun's vision and judgment were correct.

At the beginning of the third set, in the second game of Zverev's serve, the two players once again started fighting. They went through seven tie-breaking tests, with game points and break points appearing alternately, as if they were dancing wildly on a tightrope.

at last--

Gao Wen used a wonderful one-handed backhand to cut through the net in a straight line, tearing apart Zverev's slightly clumsy net coverage and blocking, cashing in on the break point, breaking serve again, and taking the lead.

In this point, Zverev had the advantage, creating a high-pressure situation in front of the net and forcing Gao Wen to lose his defensive position. However, he still lost this point. Gao Wen showed his elite level defensive counterattack in a small test. , it is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Zverev Jr.

As a result, the situation of the game changed again, and Zverev's last bit of fighting spirit was also defeated.

Subsequently, they abandoned their armor and were defeated.

The entire third set lasted less than 30 minutes. Gao Wen won six consecutive games and easily cashed in on the first match point without encountering any obstacles. Zverev was always running blindly and hitting the ball, almost without any There is no way to give any effective counter-attack, and counter-rounds are increasingly sloppy.

Then, the whole game is over——

"", "6:0".

The game lasted ninety-nine minutes and ended just before the one hundred minute mark.

Without a fight, Gao Wen defeated Zverev Jr. to advance to the second round. After returning from injury, he showed good competitive condition and started his journey to defend his title.

In the commentary box of each country, everyone looked at each other with a playful expression. When expressing their opinions, they used words a little cautiously and controlled their emotions a little.

Even adding insult to injury is a bit unbearable.

Judging from the score, this is a complete victory and there is no controversy, but such a one-sided situation is definitely not what everyone wants to see.

The youth storm is coming fiercely, and major media continue to promote the overall rise of the younger generation. From last year's Wimbledon to this year's Flushing, only Gao Wen has truly established a foothold in the top ranks.

Moreover, what is worse and more cruel is that the 1st light players have no ability to fight against Gao Wen, and they have fallen into the "maximum consumption" curse for different reasons——

This is not a good thing.

If Youth Storm wants to truly form a momentum, it will not be enough for just Gawain.

Of course, in this game, Zverev finally broke the "maximum consumption" curse, which is a beginning; but, is this worth celebrating?

The standard for "maximum consumption" was raised from two games to three games. He was not even able to win a few more games, only three games. In the game, he fell into a rout of losing nine games in a row and losing eight games in a row. Really blind.

Even if they wanted to praise little Zverev, the words couldn't come out of their mouths.

So, is this the player that countless media praised as a talented boy? Is this the successor to the next football king? Is this an outstanding player of the same age group as Gao Wen?

While looking at each other, the commentators didn't know how to express themselves, so they were inevitably cautious in their words.

However!

The crowd at Arthur Ashe Stadium had no such scruples.

Perhaps neutral fans were not satisfied with such a one-sided game that was not only not worth the ticket price but also ended too quickly.

The previous Kvitova match lasted less than an hour, and as a result, the current Gawain match lasted less than 100 minutes. For the loyal viewers who bought night tickets, it was not enough to watch. This night was not enough. It's very long. Who would end a party before nine o'clock?

But it doesn’t stop them from celebrating——

Come, cheer!
