Chapter 1067: give up perfect

"Out of bounds!"

The linesman's gesture was very firm, indicating that Dimitrov's backhand went straight out of bounds, and the point was lost, along with the entire second set.

Dimitrov couldn't believe his eyes, hugged his head in annoyance, squatted down suddenly, and stood up abruptly:

Here comes the opportunity.

Gao Wen's fake movement in front of the net has already created opportunities for him. The Spanish combination of Verdasco and Ferrer on the opposite side of the net has made a misjudgment, and the gap in the entire straight half is completely exposed.

but!

He lost it!

Actually!

incredible!

Dimitrov looked at the referee with astonishment and surprise on his face, almost crying, and raised his voice to ask.

"are you sure?"

The referee nodded in affirmation, and pinched his thumb and index finger, and gestured:

Just a little bit out of bounds, really just a little bit.

Dimitrov was still a little unwilling. Anyway, he still lost the second set. It would be a waste for Hawkeye not to challenge, so he signaled to challenge.

"Dimitrov/Gao, Hawkeye challenged on the left touchline, spot verdict: out of bounds."

The voice of the referee came, and the audience began to clap their hands, applauding in unison, looking forward to the verdict of Hawkeye's challenge.

Gawain turned around, trotted all the way back from the net to the baseline, raised his right hand, and gave Dimitrov a high five.

Dimitrov was apologetic, showing a wry smile helplessly, his drooping shoulders revealing a sense of frustration—

Confidence and discouragement are the same. Once they happen, they can gradually accumulate and form a force. Therefore, victories can easily accumulate into winning streaks, and failures can easily accumulate into losing streaks. To break this cycle, you often need a stronger External force can break free.

Clearly, Dimitrov was surrounded by frustration.

Think about it.

Although Gao Wen knew that the game was still not over, this was definitely not the best time to talk heart-to-heart, but from another perspective, maybe now is the best time, precisely because when the game is going on, they can break through the shackles and demons through actual combat , what competitive sports need is this kind of courage.

Looking back quickly at the big screen, the result of the Hawkeye challenge hadn't been played yet, so Gao Wen made a quick decision and spoke quickly.

"Grigor, actually, sometimes it really doesn't have to be perfect."

"It's not that we don't need to pursue perfection, but we need to understand that we don't need to hit the ball perfectly every time to win a point; then, we also need to accept the fact that no one is perfect, and we can't hit the ball every time. Hitting the ball is perfect, and timing is also an ability."

Dimitrov, indeed, is very similar to the young Federer in every way.

When Federer was fledgling, he was also talented and highly anticipated, and the whole world placed high hopes on him, but his career was slow to make a breakthrough, and he often lost control of his emotions on the court, smashing, roaring, broken thoughts, Against referees and spectators, everything.

reason?

The root cause is pressure. It is precisely because the outside world is full of expectations for him that he has higher requirements for his own performance; and he is a perfectionist, hoping to achieve perfection every time he hits the ball. , landing point, all need to pursue the ultimate.

The more pressure you have, the more you desire to be perfect and to prove yourself; but the more you desire this, the more you cannot achieve it.

Then, a vicious cycle is formed.

For young people, they are often unable to handle this emotional cycle, and they end up cranky, angry, and out of control.

The same goes for Dimitrov.

On the one hand, it is expectations and pressure; on the other hand, it is the pursuit of perfection.

Watching Dimitrov's game, like Federer at the beginning of his career, he is smooth and unrestrained. Every move is like an elegant swordsman. It is really pleasing to the eye. Every time he hits the ball, he pursues the ultimate pursuit of perfection. Hitting, but also strict requirements on the hitting effect.

However, in tennis, this is obviously an impossible task.

Therefore, in many cases, they pursue perfection too much, which leads to hitting mistakes, very low-level and very simple mistakes.

In the end, their games are embroidered pillows that don't work, the highlights are gorgeous, and the results are often disappointing.

Later, Federer finally realized this, got rid of the shackles, and his career ushered in a transformation—

Of course, he is still a perfectionist, but he used to be a "hopeless perfectionist", and it would be different without the prefix; instead, it is Federer's wife Mirka, who is still a hopeless perfectionist. A perfectionist who strictly demands Federer's training and competition.

Dimitrov is still young and hasn't abandoned his obsession yet. He not only wants to win, but also wants to win smoothly, neatly and beautifully.

When hitting the ball, it is inevitable to pursue the ultimate.

However, recently, Dimitrov has been in poor form, and his feel and ball feel have fluctuated significantly. When he continues to hit the ball and lay out the way he did at his peak, the effect may be a mess, and finally he will fall into a vicious circle:

Pursue perfection because of pressure, but increase mistakes because of pursuit of perfection, and accumulate pressure because of increased mistakes.

In the Asian season last year, Gao Wen also faced a similar dilemma, so how did he get out of the trough?

It's very simple, accept that you are not perfect, accept that you are not in a good state, accept that you have to change the way you play in order to be able to return to the original way of playing.

This doesn't mean compromise, giving up, surrendering, but finding a way to reconcile with yourself so you can reach your full potential.

Dimitrov needs to realize that too, he needs to learn to forgive himself, that's the first step.

Just this point, that's it.

In fact, both Ferrer and Verdasco have misjudged, and the gap has been completely exposed. Dimitrov only needs to send the front of the net into a straight line, and the winning point will be properly pocketed.

However, Dimitrov craved a perfect winner.

Scoring is not enough, it needs to be chic, exciting and perfect, so the backhand is aimed straight at the dead corner of the bottom line, but the speed of the racket head is a little slow, the closing speed is not enough, the falling parabola of the tennis ball is also lacking, and it is not able to turn into the bottom line. lead to out of bounds.

From scoring to losing, it's just one thought.

Of course, Gao Wen also knew that this was not easy.

"Perfectionism" is a character, a quality, and a way of life. Some people can't change it in their entire lives, and it's even more impossible to just say a few words.

Taking advantage of the gap in Hawkeye's challenge, Gao Wen just threw out a mark, planted a seed, and looked forward to the day when it would take root.

at the same time.

Gao Wen added another sentence.

"What's more, you should learn to trust your partner. Otherwise, I stand in front of the net ready to go, but I have no room to play. It looks too pitiful."

In just a few words, Gawain managed to make Dimitrov laugh. Although he didn't think so in his heart, he vaguely felt that Gawain was right.

Looking at Gawain, Dimitrov's tense heartstrings relaxed again. unconsciously.
