One! Go around!
With almost no space to hit the ball, Nadal used his upper body strength to hit the ball around his head, and then the tennis ball flew out like a rocket.
"Na style top spin", the long sword is unsheathed!
Tap tap tap!
Tap tap tap!
Gawain moved laterally at the first moment, because Nadal chose to hit the forehand sideways. The squeeze of his position made Nadal lose the possibility of hitting the slash. The backslash was the only option, which was Gawain's forehand. Bit.
really!
Gawain continuously adjusted his steps, his brain working rapidly——
Even after nearly a set of competition, the impact of "Nazi Topspin" is still strong, not only because Gao Wen has never met such a player in his short career, but also because Tim, who played with Gao Wen in Flushing, Currently, it does not have such an ability; it is also because Nadal's rotation hides too many changes, and it is not easy to adapt to it.
Therefore, Gawain needs to make changes, and it is difficult to break the balance with simple basic shots.
How to hit the ball?
Kick the ground! Swing the racket! Up!
Gao Wen hit the ball head-on with his forehand. This time he did not step forward to grab the ascending point. Instead, he used his forehand to create a super topspin in order to remove Nadal's spin and change the rhythm of the ball.
One pick! Go around!
Gawain's forehand hitting wrist is very soft, delicate, and very bold——
"straight line!"
"Gawain actually chose a straight line!"
"In terms of inventory, Gao Wen once again showed the courage and domineering spirit he had during the US Open!"
Forced line change!
In the first three shots of the contest, both Gao Wen and Nadal hit the ball very hard. Facing the strong impact, the players both chose to hit the ball without giving in and taking the initiative. When Gao Wen boldly took the risk to change the line and succeeded. After that, Nadal fell into passivity.
Nadal's feet were fast, crossing the court, but his steps were still clearly not in place, and he cut a shot with his forehand, which also meant that Gao Wen's change of line forced Nadal to enter a defensive state.
However, Nadal's unparalleled defense is still a hidden needle. A cut directly cuts a straight line and goes straight back to the ground.
Moreover, the placement was very clever, just at the feet of Gawain who was moving laterally.
Obviously, when Nadal was moving to defend, he had already observed that Gao Wen was moving laterally to cover the backhand position, so he simply changed the way he hit the ball. Not only did he hit the straight line, but he also got stuck in Gao Wen's movement. on the route.
shock!
Gao Wen was moving laterally. When he realized that Nadal had made a straight shot, he immediately braked. As a result, before he could start again, he found that Nadal's return ball had already rushed towards his position.
One brake and one sideways.
In a hurry, Gawain also reacted reflexively, and hurriedly swept the ball with his forehand. With his forearm quickly, when his body was squeezed, he tried to hit a small diagonal line with his skateboard to suppress it. .
This shot was obviously a very effective shot for Gao Wen during the US Open.
However, Nadal's team must have carefully studied Gao Wen's hitting route selection, because Nadal completed the prediction in advance and moved quickly laterally.
Faced with a small diagonal shot, he took a big step, pulled his body out of the sideline, and swept the big diagonal shot quickly and fiercely with his backhand with both hands.
boom!
Nadal launched an attack in an extremely passive situation. He stepped on the ground to reverse the situation and completed the shot with a two-handed backhand.
Unlike the violent forehand, Nadal's backhand has always been very stable. Although the style and intensity of the hitting method are inferior to the forehand, the basic skills of the backhand are extremely solid. It is difficult to break through the defense line in the storm, and the sudden attack is powerful. Also extremely sharp.
At this point, that's it.
With almost no room to swing, Nadal's backhand twisted and pushed with his wrist, and then the tennis ball flew quickly towards the blind corner of the big triangle on the bottom line of Gao Wen's forehand.
Advantages and disadvantages.
The situation in the strong confrontation has turned again, and the impact is very deep and very tricky.
Uh-huh!
Gawain suddenly stopped and turned, and a force burst out from the depths of his dantian. He moved laterally to his right side again, stepping on the waves and arriving quickly, but he realized at the first moment that he had lost Taking the initiative, one can only defend passively.
But, how should we defend?
He glanced at Nadal's position from the corner of his eyes, and his brain was running at high speed. It was obvious that the two players were switching offense and defense very quickly. Every shot of the ball was suppressed and calculated. This meant that the fault tolerance rate was very low, but it also meant that The opportunity is still there.
Nadal forced an attack on the previous shot and his steps were a little out of position, so he kicked off the ground with his right leg and immediately moved laterally to his left side, because the entire court had been cleared and there were gaps everywhere.
So, how should Gao Wen choose the defensive return route to reverse the situation for himself?
One kick!
He kicked the ground hard with his right leg, made an emergency brake to control his body, and then completed the forehand trigger early. Facing Nadal's urgent and rushing backhand attack, Gao Wen's hitting action was already in front of him.
One tap.
Gawain did not take the initiative to exert force, but lightly used his force to push the tennis ball back, but the choice of landing point was very clever——
Return the ball.
Still aiming for Nadal's backhand; moreover, Gao Wen did not press the landing point deeper, but deliberately chose a shallow landing point. This move was also learned from Nadal.
In today's game, Nadal's hitting point has been changing, changing the rhythm through changes in depth. At the same time, he also uses the shallow return point to completely release the top spin, and try not to let Gawain grab the rising shot. Opportunities, the combination of length and depth has been disrupting Gao Wen's return——
Proving once again that Nadal has carefully studied Gawain's game.
Now, so does Gawain.
The return ball forced Nadal to return hastily, only to find that the landing point of the shot was so shallow that by the time it flew to Nadal's hitting position, it was already falling rapidly, and the best hitting point for the attack had passed; and , Gao Wen did not use his strength, which also meant that Nadal had no way to use his strength.
So, Nadal hastily cut a straight deep ball with his backhand.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball landed in the middle of Gawain's left half and hit the baseline directly, accurately and thrillingly.
Gao Wen moved quickly laterally and immediately noticed the fast-spinning return ball. The speed was still astonishing, but compared to the momentum of the forehand, it was more than one level behind.
Chance!
Kick the ground! brake!
Gawain could clearly feel the tight force of his toes gripping the ground, and the muscles all over his body were tense to the extreme, and then he set up his backhand with both hands.
firm! tough! initiative! Come forward!
Instant burst and instant release!
Gawain didn't pay attention to Nadal's position, and concentrated on completing the shot. At the moment of hitting the ball, he gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, flicked his wrist outward, and pushed hard with the explosion of power.
A thunderous strike!
At this moment, Nadal subconsciously moved toward his forehand to defend his position and ran at full speed. However, the next second he saw the tennis ball break away from the racket, draw a thrilling arc, and run at full speed in a straight direction——
As graceful as a startled dragon!
A straight line, a straight line! That is the gap area behind Nadal's backhand!
Nadal tried to brake and start again, but it was too late.
The tennis ball flew out like a bolt of lightning, and then exploded.
boom! boom!
Score!
The first inventory, successful recovery!
