Damn it!
Alarm bells rang in Jilong's mind, and his judgment was biased again. His judgment on the power of the spinning pair was not accurate enough, and he was in a hurry at the last moment.
It was clear that the ball speed was not fast, but there was a secret behind it. Giron made inaccurate judgments and did not react in time. He was already at a disadvantage before he even touched the ball. This is not a good thing.
But now there is no time to think, because it is a close-range serve, without making a prediction in advance, there is not enough space in the footsteps, and the body is forced to turn sideways, using the strength of the upper body to complete the turn in a stiff state. After hitting the ball, the next second, Giron was ready to return.
However--
too slow!
Jiron had just adjusted his center of gravity and barely stood on his feet. Before he could take small steps, he could already see the tall body of Gawain quickly pressing on him. He spread his wings like Batman, and his tall body covered the front court.
Tap tap tap!
In just three to five steps, Gao Wen had already entered the service area and stood forward, forming a pressing frontcourt.
Giron's return was squeezed and he couldn't complete the return. Naturally, the tennis ball that flew back had no mass, was high and floating, flew precariously over the net, and fell towards the center of the court.
Gao Wen's timely follow-up and close connection have completely blocked the line in front of the net. A forehand covering and pressing down shot, and a volley without waiting for the tennis ball to hit the ground, quickly and simply covered the tennis ball.
boom!
Simply and neatly, the tennis ball hit the empty space behind the service line and in front of the baseline, landed on Giron's forehand, and flew toward the spectator stands with a whoosh.
Jilong stood there, not even fully adjusting his center of gravity, so he was naturally unable to react and could only watch the tennis ball fly out.
"30:0".
The opening of the mini-match was a little surprising. Gao Wen, who was often considered to have a "weak serve", used changes in spin to disrupt Geelong's prediction twice in a row. He scored two points in a row with just three touches of the ball. Geelong There was not even an effective counterattack.
Whoosh.
Whoosh.
Jiron's breathing was slightly disordered. It was not so much fatigue from exercise as it was a feeling of uneasiness - his predictions for receiving the serve were deviated twice in a row. Although Gawain did not issue an ACE, the advantage established through serving was enough to form. Score points and end the battle quickly.
This is obviously not the style of play Geelong is accustomed to.
concentrate!
Jilong patted his forehead and reminded him again that Gawain seemed to be particularly active today and he had to get into the state as soon as possible.
boom!
Forehand serve from the outside corner!
Flat serve!
The judgment is correct!
After receiving the serve for the third time, Jilong finally made the correct prediction. He immediately adjusted his body in small steps and moved laterally towards his right side. His right hand holding the racket was fully extended. His forearm hit quickly and his waist rotated smoothly. The upper body strength is completely devoted to the racket to complete the swing.
boom!
Hit the ball accurately!
Jilong gave full play to his skill of using force to hit the ball, and concentrated all the power of Gao Wenping's serve on the tennis ball, and returned the ball at a faster speed. With a slight lift of his rapidly vibrating forearm, the tennis ball moved diagonally. He rushed in the direction of the line with all his strength.
The diagonal line is actually Gawain's forehand!
The problem is that Gao Wen stands in the first area to serve. After completing the serve, he still needs to return and adjust. The running direction of the body's center of gravity will often pause for a moment in the center. If he cannot judge in time, his running will be half as slow. When shooting, the forehand area can be regarded as a return shot.
Clearly, Gillon was trying to disrupt Gawain's center of gravity by backtracking.
but!
Gao Wen was also prepared in advance. After serving, he adjusted his steps and immediately moved laterally towards his right hand. His eyes were fixed on Jilong's movements, and the burning focus shifted from Jilong's forehand to the high-speed flying tennis ball. Above, in the area between the doubles lines, the landing point of the tennis ball was successfully predicted.
Step up!
Lean forward!
Put pressure on!
The power is transmitted from the soles of the feet to the waist through the knees, and with a push of a turn, the muscles of the back and arms are completely tightened, and the racket starts swinging at an accelerated speed.
Touch the ball!
dessert!
shock!
At the moment when the racket pushes the tennis ball, the forearm speeds up, the speed of closing the racket is significantly increased, the speed of the racket head rises a step, and the batting action is completed with a closed closing style. The tennis ball flying quickly in a diagonal direction is abruptly It changes to a straight line and the speed increases by another level.
Whoosh.
boom.
The tennis ball hit the deep straight area directly.
state.
The tennis ball hit the backboard behind the court hard, making a loud noise.
Jiron realized that when Gawain tried to change the line and hit the straight line, his pace was already slow, and he still had to cross the entire half of the court to chase the tennis ball——
In any ball game, chasing the ball without anticipation is impossible at human speed.
The same is true at this time.
Before Giron could run across half court, the tennis ball landed, bounced, jumped twice, and became a dead ball.
Whoosh.
Whoosh.
Jilong gasped for breath, and there was a bright light in his eyes.
Rather than saying that there was a problem with his own prediction, it was better to say that his next move did not escape Gawain's calculation. It was like in a chess game, his next move and the next move all fell into the opponent's expectations. , then the opponent will be able to complete the layout five steps in advance and gain the upper hand bit by bit.
In the first three points of the chess game, Gao Wen completely took the initiative. Two serves and one forehand were actually not difficult and high-risk shots - they could even be said to be easy and simple, but Jilong's counterattacks were all direct collisions. It fell into the hands of the opponent and failed to create any waves.
Before he had time to adjust his breathing, he had already lost three points in a row.
This is the greatest charm of tennis. No matter how strong they are, in their own service game, because they have the advantage of serving, players can take the initiative——
Especially in men's games, unlike women's serves which are relatively soft, men's serves can often establish more advantages through speed, power and spin, and the tactical layout of the first three shots can be fully utilized.
"40:0".
In the blink of an eye, Gao Wen had already scored two points again, and both times he served to attack. He established an advantage through changes in serving. The subsequent offensive connection in the second shot was very good, and then Gao Wen had already won the game of his own serve. points, and three in a row; relatively speaking, Geelong did not score a single point and seemed to be a bit slow.
Wei Wei is a little surprised.
However, it is not uncommon in tennis matches. On the contrary, it should be said to be a normal phenomenon. Just like table tennis, in a close-to-hand contest, there are countless possibilities for every point. Winning four points in a row or losing four points in a row are both possible. It cannot be said to be an accident. People including McDonald and others are waiting to see how Geelong responds.
Gurgling.
Gurgling.
The atmosphere on the court has already undergone subtle changes. The other players are watching the court excitedly, and it seems that the air is boiling along with it.
