Plop.
Plop.
Gawain could clearly hear the sound of his heart hitting his chest, which was transmitted to the depths of his mind one after another, and the disturbing thoughts settled down.
Facing the break point, Gawain not only did not get nervous, but calmed down, completely calmed down.
He also realized that he had acted too hastily and desperately wanted to win the game in one go, but haste made waste, and he made mistakes instead.
No opponent will give away victory. If you want to win, you must fight for it with all your strength - this is the lesson of today's game.
Especially Saramento in front of me. The whole game was consistent. No matter what the situation, he ran all over the field conscientiously and tried his best to face every point. This spirit and perseverance is what Gao Wen needs to learn well:
As long as the game is not over, there is still a chance.
call……
After exhaling a long breath, Gawain's mind gradually became clearer and he regained his sanity. Then he came to the baseline again and prepared to serve.
One shot, enter the zone.
Gao Wen chose Saramento's forehand position. Although his speed and power were good, Gao Wen's serve was still not an expert, and the absolute threat was relatively limited. Salamento still completed the ball immediately and returned to The deep area in the middle of the court gave Gaowen no chance to attack.
In this game, Saramento used this return tactic very frequently, and achieved good results——
The neutral zone means that if you stand in the center of the field, whether you go to the left or the right, it is actually very difficult to open a wide angle, because if you go a little wider, you may go out of bounds.
Moreover, if the center is pressing into the deep zone, when the player is moving left and right, it is easy to overrun or not run enough. The deviation in position will affect the batting action, and either the player will not be able to do it completely, or he will not be able to fully stretch out and exert force. .
To put it simply, returning the ball in the middle may be conservative, and the opponent can usually get it back, but it will also limit the opponent's attack and win the next shot for yourself.
Judging from the results, Saramento's change in return route did have an effect, and they got the first break point in the second set.
This time, it's still the same.
really!
Facing the return ball in the middle, Gao Wen's steps were in place, but looking at Salamento covering the entire court on the opposite side of the net, he knew that with his current forehand power, it was still difficult to kill his opponent with one shot, and he rashly On the contrary, the offense may cause mistakes, so I hit the ball with a solid shot.
Targeting Saramento's forehand.
Then, the round-ball tug-of-war takes shape again.
Forehand, backhand.
Backhand, forehand.
Both Gao Wen and Saramento are very good players in defense and running. The four-way ball back and forth makes the two players appear in every corner of the court, but lack of a decisive shot, both sides have been slow to Can form winning points or force opponents to make mistakes.
Five beats. Ten beats.
Fifteen beats.
Seeing that the round ball was about to break through to the 20th shot again, both players gritted their teeth, entered an anaerobic state, and devoted themselves to hitting the ball. However, neither one lost the ball, and it seemed that they could stay like this for a long time. The ground will continue to beat until the end of time.
The tug-of-war continues.
Gao Wen realized that he had to take risks. Even if he risked making a mistake and losing his serve, he had to take the lead. Otherwise, the situation would be stalemate, which would be detrimental to the morale of Salamento, who was standing on the edge of the cliff. Encourage - because Salamento is regaining the situation little by little.
He needs to do something.
Tap tap tap.
It was another regular forehand diagonal shot. Gao Wen accurately judged Saramento's return line, started early, and successfully reached the position.
Early on, my feet had already stood firm, and I could clearly feel the force of my toes gripping the ground. The pull of gravity was like a leafy tree. This was an opportunity to use my strength to shoot. Time There is plenty of room and space, and the steps and torso remain stable.
but!
Gawain quickly glanced at Saramento from the corner of his eyes, and then he could see that Saramento also maintained mobility and could still sprint back and forth for another three hundred rounds. This also meant that even if he was fully charged, If you hit the ball hard, you may not be able to score a winning point.
Kick the ground!
Turn around!
Swing the racket!
Gawain assumed a posture of hitting the ball with all his strength, but when the racket touched the ball, the arm swing and the angle of the racket changed. It was not a flat hit with force, but a violent friction that swept across the entire racket surface, and the forearm Quickly lift, gently twist the wrist, use detailed muscles to create delicate angles, and then move the arm around the head in a 360-degree loop.
Chi!
The tennis ball rubbed violently, spun at high speed, and flew past in a rainbow parabola.
Kick.
Saramento had started immediately, and his heart was completely tense, because he realized that Gawain might hit flat with all his strength, and the speed and strength were not trivial. He needed to start in advance to prepare——
Forehand.
Gawain returned with a diagonal repeat line.
Not surprisingly, Saramento just swayed his center of gravity slightly and immediately ran towards his forehand position, adjusting his body in small steps to prepare to hit the ball, but...
Um?
what happened?
The parabola of the tennis ball was drawn, and Saramento immediately realized that the situation was not good:
This is not a forehand that hits a large diagonal line, but a forehand that spins a small diagonal line.
the difference?
The former has a very deep landing point, often in the big triangle between the service area and the baseline angle. It is full of momentum and requires the receiving party to retreat slightly, widen the distance, gain a firm footing, and hit back with a powerful shot.
The latter's landing point is very shallow, and may even fall within the service area. The strength and speed are not strong, but the angle is very thin, and it is directly pulled out of the doubles line area. The receiving party needs to step up, move laterally, and pull out of the court. .
At the end of the first set, Saramento once issued such a wide-angle serve, but Gao Wen accurately predicted it in advance and raised his hand to return a winning point.
But, that's a serve. When practicing daily serving, players will look for such a landing point; and this is a return shot, the entire arc is stretched so thin and so light, and there are even hidden cover-up movements before hitting the ball, which is completely deceiving. Saramento's judgment.
Oops!
Although Saramento made an advance prediction and the direction was correct, the position was very outrageous.
In a hurry, Saramento ran diagonally forward with all his strength and rushed to catch the ball.
The problem is that, first of all, Saramento does not have the height of Gawain, and the tennis ball has exceeded his height after it bounces off the ground, so he cannot complete the block return; secondly, Saramento's start is slightly slower, and the tennis ball has already exceeded his height. It started to fall and the point of impact was completely destroyed.
what to do?
Saramento, who was in a panic, could only forcefully maneuver the tennis ball back on the rapidly falling track of the tennis ball. He had no speed, no power, no line, no landing point. He was just in a mess. The ground barely hits the tennis ball back to the court, without any quality at all.
Damn it!
