"The unique skill of pressing the box".
Thoughts flashed through Gawain's mind.
Every player has his or her own bottom line, but the specific situation may be slightly different. Some players may have secret weapons that they don’t use often, while other players may have strong weapons that they are best at, use most frequently, and are most confident and secure. Help yourself to attack the city at the critical moment.
In other words, at the moment of crisis standing on the edge of the cliff, each player has his own way, and the game between the two sides will also enter another level.
At this time, it seems that this should be the most secret method among Tsonga's eighteen martial arts.
Usually, Tsonga always gives people the impression of being tough and heavy, but in fact, Tsonga also has huge advantages in his skills and feel.
Now, at the most critical moment, Tsonga took it out without reservation, easily breaking Gawain's prediction——
This also means that all the strategies that Gao Wen prepared to try in receiving the serve were invalid, and then he was forced to get involved in Tsonga's rhythm.
Tsonga is sending a signal: This is my serve, and I make the decision.
Gawain, lost initiative.
The entire unexpected situation forced Gawain to bend his knees and squat down, lowering his center of gravity. Only in this way could he complete the ball contact. However, because everything was too hasty, the racket had already touched the ball before his knees could fully bend, so that Gawain had to Finish the shot in an awkward position.
Judging from the picture, it looks like Gawain made a backhand shot with both hands before falling down while his center of gravity was unbalanced.
Beat lightly.
This is Gawain's only choice.
If you forcefully exert force, the return shot will be completely out of control, and the high probability of it flying directly into the stands; hitting lightly is a more reasonable choice, not only can the tennis ball be returned to the court smoothly, but it can also help yourself Buy some time to recover and slow down the pace further.
First of all, the return ball did return to the court. At the same time, Gao Wen once again showed excellent defensive touch. With almost no room for exertion and adjustment, he relied entirely on wrist control to control the tennis ball in the middle area; moreover, the landing The point is not bad, and it presses slightly into the deep area.
At least, the tactical intention is half successful; and the other half depends on the opponent's response.
Secondly, Gao Wen simply planned to completely slow down the rhythm of the round, but this matter is not his alone, and it also depends on whether Tsonga agrees.
The answer... is obviously no.
As expected, Tsonga entered the bottom line.
It was not a serve to the net. It can be seen that Tsonga was still worried that Gawain would react in time and attack directly, and his decelerating serve might be hit, so he did not force the net; but Tsonga still showed his aggressiveness. The footsteps cut into the bottom line and create pressure.
Although Gao Wen tried to press the return ball deep and suppress Tsonga's pace, the effect was not enough in a hurry, and the deep zone was still not enough.
One step, two steps...
Tsonga's steps into the baseline were very resolute. He was already in place in two big steps. He completely ignored the landing point of the return ball controlled by Gawain in the middle area. He turned slightly sideways, swept his forehand, hit hard with a heavy hammer, and struck out powerfully without any hesitation. Even without hesitation, he immediately acted cruelly.
From slowing down the pace of serve to fully exerting his offensive connection, Tsonga also showed his ability in rhythm control——
The power surged towards Gawain like this overwhelmingly.
Moreover, the hitting line has also changed slightly this time. The forehand is no longer a slash, but a backslash. I choose to repeat the landing point and hammer Gawain's backhand.
Details, the more top players compete, the more attention needs to be paid to these details. Tsonga does a very good job at the detail level. He does not need to take too many risks, but makes adjustments in the details, and then the superposition of variables is just one step. Step by step to push Gawain into dangerous situations and establish an advantage.
boom!
In this shot, Tsonga exerted all his strength, and the force was so powerful and earth-shattering that even the thick clouds all over the sky were turbulent and rolling. It seemed that he could feel the power of thunder and might collapse and roll down at any time, with layers of pressure. Overflowing throughout the Stade Philippe-Chatier.
Whoosh!
Tennis, in the blink of an eye, has returned to Gawain's backhand position——
Gawain did not leave.
He paused in his steps, pulled his body outward, and started attacking with a backhand shot with both hands.
Knees, bent.
Center of gravity, sinking.
Swing the racket and exert force.
In this shot, because his steps were in place and he was fully prepared, Gawain's shot was even more solid and powerful than the previous shot, hitting him head-on.
"ah!"
However, the quality of Tsonga's forehand hit still pressed on Gawain. It was heavy and heavy, with no spin or fancy. It was pure power suppression. It not only had penetrating power, but also the sense of penetration was transmitted to the arm through the string. ; And the tail is full of power, and the wrist can feel the violent impact.
continuous.
Pierce the clouds and strike the rocks.
It was like a huge wave crashing down on my head and face. I gritted my teeth and endured it, but I didn't expect that the mighty waves behind it were still continuing.
One layer, another layer, another layer, it’s endless.
With a seemingly simple stroke of the ball, Gawain also inspired all the energy, and the roar deep in his dantian exploded.
boom!
You can feel it from the sound of hitting the ball. In the confrontation between strength and power, Gawain has no reservations and confronts head-on with a tough attitude.
Immediately afterwards, you can see——
Tsonga, online.
Accident?
No surprise at all.
Gao Wen was completely mentally prepared. He had just returned the ball with the first shot. Tsonga just entered the baseline and did not hit the net, but Gao Wen was able to come out. Tsonga was testing and pressing. The reason why he chose to reverse the angle. The return ball from the line instead of the gap is actually paving the way for the net.
At this time, Gawain had already grasped some of Tsonga's mentality:
First, at critical moments, Tsonga likes to continue to apply pressure, and pressure in front of the net is the simplest and most effective way, and he is very confident in his skills in front of the net.
Secondly, in the level with extremely physical strength, Tsonga needs to fight quickly and compress the number of rounds, because the longer the round is stalemate, the more disadvantageous it is for him. Naturally, choosing to go online is the best way. No matter whether he wins or loses, he can always win. Compress the number of rounds and save energy.
Taken together, online pressure should be the core of Tsonga's tactics at this stage.
Sure enough, Tsonga went online.
In the blink of an eye, Gawain had already reacted in advance. Even before Tsonga finished touching the ball, his body rushed out with a kick of his feet——
Forehand position.
From Tsonga's layout to the gap in his forehand, various factors can be seen. Tsonga's volley hitting line in front of the net is no secret.
Tap!
Tap tap tap!
Gawain was running at full speed, and the hunting wind followed his footsteps, pulling out long billowing smoke behind him. The sky was so black that it could collapse at any time, adding a touch of tragic grandeur. It seemed that he could hear the drumbeats dancing with his footsteps. , his blood couldn’t help but surge.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
War drums sound.
The entire audience held their breath, and then they saw Tsonga sideways in front of the net, giving way to the forehand position, and relying on his forehand to intercept.
slash.
blind spot.
deep zone.
With one shot, Tsonga hit the tennis ball towards the dead center of Gao Wen's forehand baseline. But before the audience could burst out with exclamations, Gao Wen had already arrived on Hot Wheels -
Caught in the act!
