Buzz buzz.
The air is surging, and the whole place is silent. Breathing and heartbeat are intertwined, stirring slightly in the air, as if you can touch the sparks spreading, even more enthusiastic and crazy than professional games——
After all, the professional game is about fighting for individuals, but the NCAA is about fighting for team glory.
However, the more excited you are, the quieter you will be, and the more excited you will be, the more suppressed you will be.
Because tennis is a special sport, known as a "gentleman's sport", it has many etiquettes for watching the game. The most important thing is that the audience needs to keep quiet when the players are serving and hitting the ball, otherwise the sound and movement may affect the players. Attention, on the contrary, ruins the enjoyment of the game.
This is not a mandatory rule, but it is the basic etiquette for watching games. This is also the biggest difference from sports such as football and rugby.
Buzz buzz.
Even though the entire audience remained silent, the air was still boiling and almost bursting.
However, Gawain didn't seem to notice. When he stood on the court with both feet, his attention was already focused on the game.
Squatting, standing up, and jumping, Gawain moved his knees. Inadvertently, he turned his ankles and knees a lot, hoping that the muscles could be fully warmed up and relaxed. There was still some protective reaction deep in his subconscious, but he soon stopped. , standing behind the baseline, ready to receive the serve——
Harris won the coin toss. Between choosing court or serving, he chose the latter, and his confidence could be felt in his eyes.
Stand firm, bend your knees, bend over, hold the racket tightly with both hands, keep your center of gravity swinging from side to side, and be ready to kick off the ground at any time. Keep your eyes fixed on Harris on the other side of the court. From the moment you throw the ball, Pay full attention to Harris's movements and anticipate the serve.
Left. right. Left. right.
Gawain's body swayed gently and rhythmically, his eyes were firmly focused on Harris's serving action, and his brain immediately made a prediction——
inner angle.
Jumping lightly on the spot, kicking off the ground with your right leg, your whole body rushed out towards your left hand side lightly and flexibly. While moving at high speed, your body still maintained the balance of your upper body, your steps were flexible, your eyes were focused, and you were 100% locked into the rapid rotation. tennis ball and then stretch out.
Introduce the racket, hold the racket tightly with both arms, from the arm bending action to open the arms, unfold the upper limbs like a spring, while using the left foot as the center of support, push the right leg, the power of the sole of the foot bursts out through the rotation, pushing all the way to The muscles in the upper body, back and shoulders exploded, and all the strength was poured out.
Swing the racket! Touch the ball!
The moment the racket touches the tennis ball, the sight observation is verified - a flat serve.
Harris did not try to make changes through spin, but followed a regular route, using flat serves to increase speed and power and create pressure.
However, Gao Wen's accurate prediction bought a little time. It was this little advance that could not be noticed by the naked eye, but it bought Gao Wen a little space when receiving the serve, which offset the disadvantage of Harris' flat serve. Speed, and then the two-handed backhand was released.
Hit!
The action was done in one go. At the moment when the racket was released, it hit the tennis ball with full force and high speed. You could even feel the strong elastic reaction force of the tennis ball hitting the racket string and then being pushed out; however, because this was a flat serve, Gao Wen could not use it. You need to pay attention to the rotation, just use the force of the ball to put all your body weight on the tennis ball.
Swing the racket!
Charge forward!
However, this is still not all. He waved his hands backhand in a full arc, and his body also pressed forward. You can see that the whole person has completely turned, graceful and light, violent and strong, so contradictory and so harmonious. Perfectly colliding together.
boom!
With a strong twist of the wrist, the speed of the racket head increased completely!
Whoosh!
The tennis ball was like an arrow leaving the string. It didn't even stay in the air before it hit the wall and was pushed back fiercely. The speed and power of the serve were reacted on the tennis ball. The superposition of acceleration and acceleration made the tennis ball fly. Speed reaches new extremes.
With a flash of light and shadow, the tennis ball drew a diagonal parabola, rushed out in a small diagonal line, and then landed in the big triangle between the baseline and the left sideline.
Snapped!
Kick!
After landing and rebounding, the tennis ball was compressed to the extreme and then became full and full again. All the concentrated power exploded, blasting directly towards the back of the court at an incredible speed, making a huge noise! The strong tail force drags out a whirlwind,
Simple and neat!
Sharp and powerful!
Harris stood there, not even able to react, and stared blankly at the tennis ball flying out from behind him, like a fool.
"pretty!"
"Wow, return serve and ACE!"
"The young player of the Bruins showed his hitting ability with a wonderful return-serve winner at the beginning. His accurate prediction allowed him to catch Harris' serve at the first time, and hit the ball with a solid and sharp backhand. I successfully used the power of the serve and finally hit a faster and more powerful return serve.”
"Harris had just completed the serving action, and before his body had time to return to his position, the return ball had already landed in the forehand space behind him, without any chance."
"Wow, the speed of this winning point came out. Harris's serve speed was only 181 kilometers per hour, but the opponent's return service speed also reached 167 kilometers per hour. It was basically equivalent to smashing the serve back."
"The game has just begun, and the Bruins' young player showed high fighting spirit and showed his opponent that he is ready to fight."
In the commentary room, Sofal was explaining the situation enthusiastically. After a long day of commentary work, he himself was very tired and needed a little stimulation and excitement. Otherwise, just relying on the support of caffeine and nicotine would be almost a waste. mission Impossible--
"Return of serve ACE" is not mentioned in the rule book. It is just the commentators' own interpretation. That is, when returning the serve, it can be fatal with one hit, so that the server does not touch the tennis ball at all, then it is the same as the server. The ACE forms a response, called a return ACE.
However, in the post-match technical statistics, there is no ACE for the return of serve. Instead, it is recorded as a "winning point" and also a "winning point of return of serve."
Like ACE, the return of serve is also one of the most morale-boosting ways to score points. After all, winning with return of serve is much more difficult.
This kind of opening feels a bit like a final victory.
Sofal also sincerely hopes that the Bruins youngster can bring an eye-catching performance to prevent the game from falling into a one-sided situation, and he also needs to go all out to form a confrontation, which is worthy of such a long day. Fierce competition.
Judging from the first point of the opening game, at least the young people's fighting spirit and momentum are still very strong. This is a good start. I don't know if it is luck or the first sign of success. We need to continue to work hard in the future.
"0:15".
The referee has reported the score directly.
