Chapter 1120

As the development of professional tennis is becoming more and more complete and comprehensive, there are often objective differences in the competition environment due to commercial sponsorship.

This is a fact, it is the status quo, and at the same time, it also means that when players move between different competitions, they need to adapt to more things.

but!

From Indian Wells to Miami, there have been two consecutive Masters tournaments. The venue, ball, environment, and conditions have all undergone significant changes. This is outrageous, especially the difference in game balls. Zoom in even further and the entire shot feels different.

It is precisely because of this that the difficulty of climbing to the top of the "Sunshine Double Crown" has been further enlarged, and adjustments are required from adapting to the venue to playing on the spot to game tactics.

Not to mention ordinary players, even the Big Four are no exception.

Take a look at Nadal. Although Indian Wells reached the top three times, Miami lost all five finals with regrets. So far, they have not been able to collect their own "Sunshine Double Crown". The difficulty can be imagined.

Even more so for a young player like Rublev.

Young players often lack game experience, and the difficulty of state adjustment is even higher. Like Rublev, he rushes forward with a dull head, rolls up his sleeves and pats his strength, and then suddenly finds in the real game——

Indian Wells hits the ball well, but when it comes to Miami, it often hits the net; or, the texture of the ball in Miami is so different from Indian Wells that the hitting point and movement of the foot need to be adjusted.

What's going on?

During the game, you can often see Lublev looking at the racket, thighs, and Gawain on the opposite side of the field with doubtful eyes, with question marks all over his head, helpless and innocent.

Obviously, this game, for Rublev, is very difficult, very, very, very difficult.

In fact, whether it was Lublev or Gao Wen, it was the first time for them to experience such a situation, and things obviously deviated from what they expected.

However, for the two players, there are still some differences.

Rublev is a tendon. Compared with using his brain, he needs to experience it himself to truly feel it and then adjust it. But now, he lacks enough game experience to interpret, analyze, adjust and adapt. The sense of shock comes, and the amount of information is obviously overloaded.

He had no choice but to rush forward, as if he was hitting a wall, and he had to bite the bullet.

Gao Wen is different. He is used to analyzing and experimenting with any opponent in any competition. He uses different permutations and combinations to find the best solution, changes and adjustments. This is the core of Gao Wen's competition. Therefore, regarding the changes in Miami, he Already mentally prepared in advance.

Moreover, Gao Wen was facing Rublev, a player who was not good at change and layout, and he was playing a strong game. This also left more room for trial and error adjustments in Gao Wen's game. He used to play in the NCAA period. , Facing such a type of player already has some experience.

It can be said that it was a kind of luck for Gao Wen to meet Rublev in the first match in Miami.

Going back and forth, adding and subtracting, Gao Wen's advantage not only did not shrink, but further expanded.

All kinds, all kinds.

When Lublev faced Gao Wen, he felt even more restrained. He couldn't stretch the whole game, and he still couldn't find his own rhythm.

Very dull.

The gap was widened in the blink of an eye.

The match point point is very representative.

Rublev serves.

One shot.

inner corner.

The speed is 203 kilometers per hour.

Both the route and the landing point are very beautiful, giving full play to the advantages of the serving side and exerting great pressure on Gao Wen.

Gao Wen was very passive.

With the body losing its center of gravity, the forehand barely blocked it, without any control at all, just barely pushing the tennis ball back.

The parabola is slightly high, and the landing point is not deep, and there is at least two steps away from the bottom line.

The only thing that is certain is that the line is controlled in the middle, and the angle is not torn apart. This also means that if Rublev wants to tear the angle, he needs to take more risks.

Rublev's reaction was swift.

Stay focused, face the break point and match point, and take the initiative to step, while observing Gao Wen's return line, while making quick and small adjustments.

Enter the bottom line at the first time, step up to the midfield, follow up and attack, sideways forcibly tear the angle with the forehand, and attack with a backslash—

Aim for the sideline of Gawain's backhand.

Serving, suppressing the forehand; attacking, suppressing the backhand, it can be seen from this that Lublev's thinking is clear and his offensive concept is complete.

Gao Wen was not surprised, he stopped and turned quickly, his feet quickly returned to his position, and he used his backhand to sweep a shot with his strength. The control of this shot was very good:

In the case of passive defense, with a transition shot, the angle and line are not completely torn apart, but the force is used to hit the ball, but the landing point is pushed deep enough; at the same time, the parabola is not fully pulled up, so as to flat hit the backspin ball Push Rublev back to the baseline and take the pressure off.

If it is Federer, this ball is unconditionally forced to the net, then facing the backspin ball under his feet, he can also use his fine touch to complete the control, launch a counterattack in the defense, resolve Gao Wen's tactical layout, and regain the offensive and defensive initiative. , then Gawain must re-layout.

But Rublev does not have such ability before the net, nor does he have such awareness.

He has no choice.

Seeing the incoming ball, Rubilev quickly returned to the bottom line, backhanded the tennis ball solidly and steadily with both hands, and drew a slash again.

Rublev's backhand is stable and durable. Of course, it can also exert force, but overall it is relatively rigid, lacking changes in rotation and strength; Slash, compress your swing time.

In other words, when Gao Wen saw Lublev's footsteps back to the bottom line, his tactical layout had been completed, and he only needed to wait patiently in the backhand position, and that was enough.

"Backhand VS Backhand".

Round one, round two, round three.

The two players formed a seesaw in the backhand position~lightnovelpub.net~ Lublev relied on strength to suppress, while Gao Wen always used his strength to control the landing point, and the situation was stalemate for a while.

Gawain didn't change his line, and neither did Rublev.

But the speed, power and rhythm of returning the ball are always changing. Gawain is trying to control and Rublev is trying to speed up. The two players are competing.

Next, it depends on who is the first to dare to change, or who can't withstand the pressure and loses the ball first.

Snapped!

Gao Wen's backhand hit the ball, the angle was not completely widened, and it came back a little bit.

Lublev immediately saw the opportunity, took small steps and turned sideways, switched from the backhand to the forehand, exerted force, and quickly threw the forehand out.

boom!

The tennis ball rushed out like a cannonball, with all the strength, angle, and speed. It was obvious at a glance that Rublev was about to score the winning point.

but!

Not only was Gao Wen not panicked or embarrassed, but his eyes were focused. To be precise, the shot just now—

It's a trap.
