In fact, if Kogkinakis saw the attribute panel in Gawain's system, he wouldn't be so surprised——
Of course, if you really see the system, the price may be to scream "alien" and then faint directly, but that's probably what it means:
Not to mention it was as far away as six months ago. Even compared to when the offseason just started a month ago, the attributes have also undergone considerable changes. Data can be used to prove how much Gao Wen spent during this offseason. Sweat.
It even got "Devil's Certification" from Peart.
Physical attributes, front, 86; back, 89.
Technical properties, front, 89; rear, 90.
Mental attributes, front, 92; back, 93.
Hidden attributes, front, 78(0); rear, 78(2).
Judging from the data alone, the overall improvement does not seem to be as huge as imagined, but the premise is that when the strength is improved to a certain level, it will be more difficult to continue to improve, and the effect of the same training intensity will inevitably decrease slowly. .
Moreover, the training of competitive sports is not a simple superposition. Simply doubling the training intensity cannot achieve the desired effect. The quantity, pattern, type, intensity, quality, etc. of training must be changed to avoid injuries. Find ways to push yourself beyond your limits.
After training throughout the offseason and playing in Doha, when I came to Melbourne, including the natural growth part and the point improvement part, I finally reached the current level.
Originally, Gao Wen was looking forward to offseason training to improve his physical attributes to 90 and truly enter a new stage.
But unfortunately, there is always a little bit missing, and even the increase in growth potential has slowed down significantly. There are various signs that the second bottleneck should not be far away.
According to last experience, once it reaches a bottleneck, its growth potential cannot continue to increase.
At this time, the Australian Open comes at the right time.
He pushed himself to the limit through a fierce duel, just like last year's game against Kogkinakis, breaking through the bottleneck in one go.
The Grand Slam is undoubtedly the best stage.
To be honest, Gawain also has expectations for Kogkinakis, because the last breakthrough came from Kogkinakis's strong duel, bursting out his potential; then maybe this time Kogkinakis will Can Sri Lanka also bring a little "luck"?
However……
After the opening ceremony, Gawain was slightly disappointed.
The entire confrontation between strength and speed has been completely adapted to Gawain. After adapting, it means that Gawain will no longer be passive. He can take the initiative, deploy and mobilize, and all the tactics in his mind can be carried out smoothly. Even attacking before Kogkinakis could.
Kogkinakis is a typical offensive player. The entire shot is fast and flat, and the rebound after landing is very low, with almost no bounce.
Overall, the bounce at the Australian Open is relatively high because the ground is rubber, and the bounce is more regular and even than at the US Open.
But even on such a venue, Kogkinakis' batting bounce is still not high, which shows his playing style.
Tigers and tigers are powerful.
However, for Gawain, Kogkinakis' batting speed and power have always remained stable, with no changes, and it is more comfortable to hit with the help of force; moreover, Kogkinakis is still a young player, blindly Using brute force, there is basically no strategy at all.
Once the quality of the ball fails to suppress, Kogkinakis' game will be very passive.
Three consecutive break points are the best proof.
The most important thing is that none of the current three points have any round balls. Kogkinakis's own net shot and Gawain's two forehand scores basically resolved the battle within four shots, so the entire game progressed. It happened very quickly, before I even had time to breathe.
Then--
ace!
At the critical moment, Kogkinakis saved a break point with a beautiful outside corner ace.
finally!
Kogkinakis roared out immediately, playing a bit dull and confused in the opening stage, which made him very depressed.
"ah!"
Like a poodle, Kogkinakis clenched his fists and roared, hitting Gawain with murderous intent burning in his eyes, proving his fighting spirit.
He needs this moment to fully mobilize his emotions and fighting spirit to make the game intense.
but……
Gao Wen was not moved at all, ace. If the opponent can serve an ace, then continue. After all, serving is the only initiative in the hands of the players, so there is no need to be frustrated by the ace.
Even if Kogkinakis can hold serve with five aces in a row, that's his skill.
Gao Wen walked towards the first area unhurriedly, reviewing in his mind the four points so far, the first and second serve placement choices, and then infer what Kogkinakis's next serve will be like. choose.
He is very busy, where does he have time to talk to Kogkinakis?
Kogkinakis's roar was basically a waste of emotion by ogling the "blind man".
Looking at Gawain strolling in the courtyard, Kogkinakis almost choked his throat with his roar, but he didn't care, he just thought that Gawain was shocked. Because of fear and cowardice, Gawain didn't have any reaction.
Right, that is it.
Kogkinakis secretly clenched his fists again, cheering himself up and muttering something in his mouth.
"Ace, ace, ace."
After all, ace is now the most economical, simple and efficient means of scoring.
No matter what, this ace and this roar allowed Kogkinakis to regain his footing and find some feeling, and he continued his good form with the next point.
The firm belief has been implemented, the entire serving movement has been completely relaxed, and the quality of the serving has also improved——
One shot.
boom!
Inside corner!
In!
Speed... 219 kilometers per hour!
Whoosh!
As fast as lightning, Kogkinakis found his first serve and fired his highest speed since the new season, rushing past mightily.
Almost invisible.
Huh.
This was the sound of Kogkinakis gasping, and it was also the sound of the strong wind. He looked at his serve, realized that he had successfully hit the inside corner, and immediately followed his footsteps into the court.
Chance!
Small steps, small steps, continuous adjustments, Kogkinakis has already prepared the offensive connection for the next shot, and creates offensive opportunities for himself through high-quality serves, which he must seize.
but--
The prediction is accurate!
Tennis has always been a sport of game and confrontation. No matter how outstanding the quality of Kogkinakis's serve is, the effect of his serve still needs to depend on Gawain.
Gawain's prediction of the service line and landing point was completely accurate: inside corner.
One step, one kick.
leisurely!
Very responsive!
At the critical moment, Gao Wen was very calm because he couldn't see the speedometer and naturally didn't know the specific speed of Kogkinakis' serve. All his attention was focused on the incoming ball.
Gao Wen's body was like stepping on a spring. He rushed out immediately. He completed the lead-in of the backhand with both hands early. He swung the racket quickly in a small range and pushed it back with a slight knock.
