"30:30".
a district.
Gao Wen stood on the baseline, bending his body, the racket spinning rapidly in his palm, watching Berdych's preparations for serving, and his thoughts also started to rotate rapidly.
Forehand? Backhand? Close?
Do you want to move in advance to take a shot? Or wait for Berdych to serve and then consciously slow down the game?
Fight? Saw? assault?
Then--
Backhand.
Gao Wen's pupils shrank slightly and he already stepped out. For the second time in a row, Berdych tried to suppress Gao Wen's backhand, even though he changed the service area.
This time, Gawain started a little faster, but just by this point, the entire shot was completely different.
First, the batting point was caught.
Secondly, the ball return parabola is under control.
Thirdly, the landing point and rotation are also under control.
boom!
With the help of a strong push, the tennis ball flew back quickly——
It's the deep area in the middle again.
Berdych chose the same serve as the previous point, and Gao Wen also chose the same return as the previous point, but obviously, the situation was different.
Gawain's return ball was deep and heavy!
Against Berdych, you need to be careful with his forehand power. It may not be as explosive as Wawrinka or Kyrgios, and he does not have absolute talent; but his right forearm quickly presses forward and is very penetrating. Look at it. It seems light, but in fact it is tricky and full of tail power.
Berdych rarely grabs points like Kei Nishikori, and his batting rhythm is relatively balanced. Unless he is in a passive situation, he rarely uses cutting or spin to change his game speed. It is precisely because of this that, His games have always been relatively average.
So, what does this mean?
This shows that when facing Berdych, maintaining depth in returning the ball is very important, very important.
Against Federer or Kei Nishikori, blindly returning the ball from deep areas will not work, because they will grab the rising point or change the cutting to change the rhythm.
But not Berdych.
Correspondingly, once the return ball is shallow, Berdych's ability to follow up and connect the attack is very good. When he enters the midfield area, his forehand is fast and fast, and he has the ability to form a winning point in one shot, even if The Big Four would be very, very passive if they were in such a predicament.
Therefore, controlling the depth of return has become an important part of the offensive and defensive transition in the game against Berdych.
In the previous point, Gao Wen failed to control the depth of the return serve, and Berdych raised his hand to directly form the winning point.
At this point, Gao Wen stole the shot slightly and successfully limited Berdych with the depth of his return serve.
Berdych had just finished serving, and his body movements did not have time to fully return to position. His hands were slightly squeezed in the backhand and could not be fully stretched.
As a result, in a hurry, Berdych also took a shot, in the middle and in the deep zone.
"Middle vs Middle".
Both players realized that there was no particularly good offensive opportunity——
Because the opponent's position is very appropriate, the center of gravity is very light, and the defensive awareness has risen to the highest level. This also means that the first offensive team needs to face the risk of the opponent's defensive counterattack. Therefore, both players are restricting and suppressing the opponent. , but did not attack rashly.
Therefore, the impact point of the ball is kept in the middle area. It is not purely straight, but the angle of the diagonal line is not broken, and the left and right movements are within the range of two steps.
After three consecutive shots, Gawain suddenly became angry.
Without warning, Gawain flicked a backslash with his forehand, slightly opening the angle.
really!
Berdych was very alert and moved quickly. He took two consecutive long strides and was already in position. He used the force of his backhand to create a wider angle.
However, it’s exactly what you want!
Because Gao Wen expected Berdych's hitting line: it is quite satisfactory, and there is a high probability that it will be a diagonal shot, and then further widen the angle.
When Berdych finished hitting the ball, Gao Wen's footsteps immediately moved, even slightly grabbing the shot, and adjusting in small steps in succession.
One step forward!
The two-handed backhand shot was very decisive. He took a step forward to grab the rising point, and directly covered it from top to bottom, instantly speeding up——
Slash!
Super big slash!
The landing point is shallow and biased, and the angle is further torn apart, so that the entire space of the venue has been fully utilized.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball aimed at the shallow area on Berdych's left sideline and hit it directly.
This time when he hits the ball, it can be seen that Gao Wen's confidence has returned to the normal level, and he dares to hit the ball at the corners. Although the success rate is still unstable, the determination and courage from the inside out has returned. Even with such a crucial score, he dared to take action directly.
boom!
The entire speed, rhythm, and quality have been comprehensively improved.
Berdych was a little embarrassed, but his strength could be seen at this moment. His basic skills were particularly solid, and he had already rushed out with two consecutive big strides.
With the body's center of gravity already shaky, the two-handed backhand evolved into a one-handed backhand, and with a downward cut, he unexpectedly completed the save.
squeak!
His left leg came to an emergency stop, and the power of his calf exploded instantly, and then Berdych was already moving sideways to his right side at lightning speed.
Run!
Sprint!
Amidst the gust of wind and rain, Berdych could see that Gawain's footsteps had entered the venue.
You've got it.
Berdych knows that Gao Wen's entire offensive connection is very close and very courageous. Although Gao Wen is not his strong point in front of the net, Gao Wen is not afraid to enter the midfield to put pressure, so it can often be seen that Gao Wen enters the bottom line. Within, the offensive connection was completed aggressively, like a sudden storm.
Therefore, Berdych just stood on the edge of the cliff and cut a backspin ball that turned sharply and deliberately aimed at the midfield area.
As a result, the tennis ball fell at Gawain's feet, forcing Gawain to hit the rebound ball instead of continuing to attack.
A shot of the ball.
Berdych failed to complete the transition between offense and defense, but eliminated all the advantages of Gao Wen's previous shot layout, and then forced Gao Wen to complete a difficult bounce ball from his feet.
Immediately afterwards, Berdych's lateral movement was already waiting for Gawain's ball in the forehand position.
Kick the ground, brake!
Turn around and swing!
Berdych used the power of his forward motion to make a big forehand swing, exerting all his strength, and a diagonal mustard yellow light rushed towards the baseline.
Turn defense into offense!
In an extremely passive situation, Berdych gritted his teeth and regained the advantage.
Immediately afterwards, you can see that Gao Wen's footsteps were forced back to the bottom line in embarrassment. Because Berdych's return ball landed in the deep backspin area, Gao Wen had no way to complete the volley and could only return to the bottom line. Wire.
However, because his steps were not in place, Gao Wen almost caught a rebound ball behind his body, without any control or arc, and completed the return in a hurry.
The advantages and disadvantages are completely reversed.
In the midst of a turbulent wave, Gawain adjusted his center of gravity in small steps. He turned back to look at the moon and looked for the tennis ball in the air. Then he could see the tennis ball flying high, drawing a thrilling parabola and flying towards the deep area of the baseline.
Light, agile, like an elf.
At the scene, there was a sound of gasping. People looked at the tennis ball spinning at high speed in the air in disbelief. The long sword was unsheathed and all the breath was cut off.
