He shot with all his strength and was ready to go. After completing the active attack with his forehand, Gao Wen still did not relax. He moved laterally to his left side in small steps to prevent Sarkisian from completing the save, so that he could connect immediately. The next attack——
Mainly because of the habit that Salamento forced him to develop, he always needs to prepare one more shot, otherwise, the opponent may always reverse the situation.
It wasn't until the referee reported the score that Gao Wen stopped running and finally made a fist to celebrate.
But the celebration was short-lived.
Then, Gawain looked at the hitting line and landing point——
This is another batting tactical combination, pressing the front and hanging behind.
To put it simply, it is to use some very shallow returns to move Sarkisian to the frontcourt, and then take the initiative to lob the ball, forming a different kind of suppression. As a result, Sarkisian is unable to grab the ascending point and is forced to perform his least necessary actions. If he is good at taking the initiative to attack, the quality of his batting will plummet.
Of course, if this happens every time, it will definitely be dangerous, because if Sarkisian enters the first half, he will be more comfortable and will be very aggressive in grabbing the ascending point. This also means that Gawain must be more prepared:
Or use backspin to force Sarkisian to squat down completely to hit the ball, destroying the center of gravity.
Or use a combination of long and short balls to mobilize Sarkeeson on the vertical axis and disrupt his sense of direction on the court.
Overall, Sarkisian also has a certain level of defense, but compared with Salamento, it is still a whole level behind, especially the quality of defensive returns, which means containing the opponent's offense through defense. On the one hand, Sarkeesian clearly lacks stamina and means.
Great, yet another tactical combination that has proven to be effective.
Across the court, Sarkeeson and Gawain's eyes briefly collided. Such an opening cannot be said to be unexpected, but it cannot be said to be natural.
Sarkisian was not frustrated. Even if he was broken first, his confidence never wavered. Three consecutive wins gave him the confidence to face any difficult situation.
Sarkeeson believes that the main reason is that he warmed up slowly and failed to perform well. The quality of several returns was lower than expected and his reaction speed was not timely enough. This caused him to fall into passivity. As long as he completed the warm-up and his hand returned to its best, the situation would be smooth. It can be reversed.
In other words, he believed that it was not how well Gawain played, but that he was not good enough.
When the venue was changed, Gao Wen could feel Sarkisian's calmness and calmness, without too many mental fluctuations. However, Gao Wen did not pay too much attention to Sarkisian. He still focused on himself and controlled the game by himself.
In the first game, I gained a lot.
The break of serve was very important because it gave Gao Wen the lead in the first set, but Gao Wen was more satisfied with his attempt at the tactical level than the break of serve.
After a round of fighting, we can initially see Sarkeeson’s state and feel——
It is undeniable that Sarkisian is indeed in good condition now, which is mainly reflected in his reaction speed and timing of hitting the ball. He can find the right moment with just one shot without hesitation or hesitation. This is for a point-grabbing player. , is undoubtedly the best embodiment of the hot state.
This also means that a fast-playing tactic is not appropriate because Sarkeesian is hoping for a fast-paced game.
But at the same time, it is not appropriate to deliberately slow down the pace of the game. Sarkisian has a hot touch and can force shots like Webber, and the hitting effect is also very good. In this way, he can forcibly increase the pace of the game, and Gao Wen will be trapped in a defensive dilemma. .
Therefore, it is best to be in a state of change and mobilization all the time.
In the second game, Gawain served.
The rhythm of the game is slightly different.
From Gawain's perspective, he has the offensive initiative.
From Sarkeeson's perspective, he can let the offense go.
It was clear that neither player had any intention of backing down.
boom!
For the first serve, Gao Wen chose the outside corner——
Deja vu?
Sarkisson's first serve was also from the outside corner, and Gawain guessed it. At this time, Sarkisson was not too surprised by Gawain's serve.
However, accurate prediction does not mean a successful shot.
High and spinning, Gao Wen captured the characteristic that the serve must enter the service area, which also means that super top spin can make the tennis ball bounce high after landing; but for Sarkisian, he is not bold enough yet. After receiving a serve, he directly enters the baseline to grab the rising point.
So, even though Sarkisian guessed the direction correctly, when the tennis ball flew over, it had already passed high over his shoulders.
With a height of 191 centimeters, the hitting point is still over the shoulder. From such details, it can be seen how much spin Gawain has added, and he is obviously prepared.
Sarkisian couldn't grab the point, and it was still above his shoulders. He hit the racket in an extremely awkward posture. He couldn't complete the entire swing. He used the strength of his upper body to twist it, and then the tennis ball flew away. past.
It is also a diagonal line, and it is also a deep pressing area, but the quality of Sarkisian's return is obviously not comparable to that of Gawain's first return.
Kick the ground.
move.
Adjustment.
The forehand led to the shot calmly, because there was enough time, and there was even time to glance at the direction of Sarkisian's movement——
Sarkisian was obviously prepared to defend his entire backhand gap, because the entire field had been forced to give way, so after he completed the ball, he immediately moved laterally to the left.
So, the moment Gawain took action, he used a little more strength on his wrist and hit a slash:
Return the ball.
Repeat the line, aim at the vacated right position behind Sarkisian, and hit it there. Instead of pursuing the angle, he uses speed to create pressure. The tennis ball has swept past Sarkisian like a hurricane.
Sarkisian, who was sprinting towards the left, was too late to stop and turn. He only glanced at the trajectory of the tennis ball with his peripheral vision.
The same tactical routine, different results, in the final analysis is because the two sides who launch the offense and deal with the defense are different.
To put it simply, Sarkisian needs to grab points, the rhythm must be improved, and the room for error is relatively small, but Gao Wen does not need it. He can use speed, spin, placement, etc. to create suppression through changes in serve, and then use his own The connection of the second beat controls the rhythm of your attack.
In addition, just like this point, the unexpected arrangement and combination of batting lines is also Gawain's advantage.
"15:0".
However, Sarkisian is also going all out. In the second point, the deep return of the serve inhibited Gawain's offensive connection, thus forming a confrontation.
One time, one time.
One time, one time.
In the blink of an eye, seven rounds had been played, and Gao Wen failed to directly score in the first three shots.
Then Sarkisian seized the opportunity when Gawain's diagonal return ball fell into his prediction, took a big step forward, and successfully grabbed the rising point of the ball. He gently twisted and raised his backhand with both hands, which was very impressive. Delicate and very light handling, without exerting force, the speed is already increased through rhythm.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball drew a naughty trajectory and bounced back along the diagonal line, but the entire speed increased by a level, and the reaction time was immediately compressed.
Gao Wen, who was about to return to defend the space on the right, was caught off guard and immediately fell into a passive position. He hurriedly made a block with his backhand, but there was no time to initiate the shot, so there was no control at all. Even the route was just a subconscious conservative return, and the tennis ball had already flown past, repeating the route and returning to Sarkisson's backhand position.
Chance!
