Chapter 178: Be a man and leave a line
Looking at the glaring 40-0 on the scoreboard, Lajovic felt his heart pound with a hammer again. The frantic applause of the audience on the sidelines was no less than a storm for him, tearing his inner world apart.
"Isn't it true that you can't take a penny?" Lajovic suddenly realized that he was really scared now. The powerlessness of this fear has not been felt since he moved to senior competition.
At this time, the most direct manifestation of the fluctuation in his heart was that his right hand began to shake uncontrollably, and he couldn't even hold the racket.
"Damn, shit! I've got to get this point anyway! Roaring viciously at himself, he decided to give his all in the next point.
On the edge of a cliff, people tend to behave in two ways. One is to be defeated by fear and fall into the abyss without resistance; The other is to survive ** to stimulate the strongest potential of the human body and pull yourself back from the cliff.
At this moment, Lajovic's strong willpower finally broke out completely at this moment. Faced with three match points, Lajovic got rid of all distractions and focused all his energy on this serve.
And Pan Xiqi, who was standing opposite, also clearly felt the difference in the opponent's serve. From the moment Lajovic's toss, there was a strong signal of imminence.
"Looks like I'm really being forced to do it. Forget it, it's all work, there's no need not to leave a way for people to live. Thinking to himself, Pancich had his own plan for the next return.
With a crisp "bang", Lajovic delivered the most perfect serve of the match. With a ball speed of 202 kilometers and an outside corner kick that pressed the line, this ball has reached his ultimate level no matter how you look at it.
After the ball, Lajovic had a strong premonition that he would be able to win the point. However, at this time, he still couldn't really put his mind at ease, because the previous game fully showed what a speechless person the Chinese player opposite him was. You think he can't catch the ball, but when it comes to him, it's really possible to get it all back for you.
Now the same is true of this serve. Seeing that the tennis ball was about to fly directly out of Pansic's side, an ace was about to come out. However, in the last moment, Pansic used a magical step movement to cut the ball back with a backhand.
"Damn, this can be taken back, am I destined to accept this tragic fate today?" With his eyes fixed on the tennis ball flying towards him, Lajovic looked very nervous.
As the tennis ball gets closer and closer, Lajovic is constantly fine-tuning his pace in search of the perfect position to hit the ball. Soon, the tennis ball flew near the bottom line of the central zone, ready to land.
Seeing that the bottom line is close at hand, the downward trend of tennis is also very obvious. It can be said that judging from the flight trajectory, there is a high probability that this ball will be pressed on the bottom line. However, what no one expected was that the tennis ball did not touch the ground the moment it reached the bottom line, but flew out for a short distance before hitting the ground heavily.
“out!” The line behind Lajovic gave the out-of-bounds gesture for the first time.
"Wow!" With the shouting of the division, the audience erupted into a violent exclamation. The audience then fell silent at the same time, seemingly unaware of what had just happened.
"Out of bounds, he actually took the serve out of bounds! Hahahaha!" After confirming his score, Lajovic could no longer suppress his inner emotions and leaped into the air with a big leap, while his right hand clenched into a fist and raised high, and a loud roar came out of his mouth.
At this time, if the audience who has just arrived on the sidelines sees him like this, they will definitely think that he won the whole game. Who would have thought that this would just be his performance after winning the first point of the third set.
However, the audience, who witnessed the whole process, still understood the reason for Lajovic's excitement. The audience, who came back to their senses, did not hesitate to give their warmest cheers to Lajovic on the field, and offered the most sincere applause for his self-redemption.
It can be said that at this moment, the atmosphere of the audience reached the maximum. And the maker of this **, Pansic, acted as if all this had nothing to do with him, just stood quietly in place and watched Lajovic on the other side celebrate and shout to the fullest.
Seeing his opponent so excited and excited, Pansic couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart. The experience just now made him realize that playing a game is like life, and no matter in the above circumstances, he should leave a little leeway for others. The ancient saying "be a man and leave a line" is also very applicable on the tennis court.
But then again, the return just now went out of bounds, and even he couldn't figure out whether it was intentional or really out of control. But there is no point in thinking about this now, anyway, this result is what everyone wants to see.
"Almost, just a little bit!" This mistake made Qian Xiaojia on the sidelines a little disappointed. In her opinion, once Pansiqi can accomplish the feat of the golden egg, then she will have something to capitalize and write about in the next few days.
After winning the first point of the third set and ending a losing streak of 23 points, the satisfied Lajovic finally gave up all thoughts of resistance and made a direct double fault in the next point to send the match 0-6 and send Pancicic to the first round of the 2017 US Open.
When the two sides shook hands after the game, Lajovic appeared to be in a good mood. Although the score of the defeat was ugly, the tragedy that was written into the history of shame was avoided, and Lajovic was already happy with today's game.
“pan,y!” Holding Pansizi's hand, Lajovic said sincerely.
Although I didn't quite understand what the other party said, looking at the other party's expression, it should be a good word, so Pan Xiqi replied with a smile: "Thank you."
Since the emotions of the audience had been mobilized to the highest point in the previous point, the reaction of the audience was not so enthusiastic when Pancich actually won the game. When Pan Xiqi waved to the audience to thank him, most of the audience just politely applauded, and only the Chinese audience members were still shouting frantically.
The audience did not realize that although they could not witness the birth of the golden egg, Pansic's promotion to the main draw also created the history of a Chinese men's player appearing in the first round of the US Open for the first time.
In this way, Pan Xiqi, who finally completed the three rounds of qualifying tasks, walked out of the arena with ease after packing his backpack, ready to return to his residence. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
