"Disc (set), high..."

The referee had already directly announced the score, and gave an affirmative reply to the line referee's judgment, drawing an end to the second set, "6:4", and Gao Wen won the set.

What... what's going on?

The audience was stunned.

In the unavoidable serve game, Djokovic led "40:15", but lost four points in a row and gave up the victory with a mistake.

What?

That's it?

That's it!

The end of the second set was so abrupt and ridiculous that there was a sense of emptiness, and the entire audience hugged their heads in disbelief.

The heart went up and down, and then stopped abruptly, unable to bear it.

Djokovic was very angry, very very angry, turned around and yelled at his player box, venting his frustration and dissatisfaction—

The ball just now was difficult, but not that difficult. The most important thing is that Djokovic's own prediction was not accurate and he made low-level mistakes.

So, what happened to Gao Wen's return?

First, the lines.

It is still in the middle, which also means that Djokovic has limited space to tear the angle.

From a physical point of view, the greater the angle of the ball, the greater the angle of return, but if there is no angle, creating angles requires more risks.

Second, drop point.

Because Gao Wen has a calm time to hit the ball, the control is simpler and easier. He deliberately pushed the ball back a little deeper, but not too deep.

If it was directly on the bottom line, Djokovic would definitely be vigilant, return the ball with more tape, and increase the safety factor, so he might not make a mistake; but Gao Wen just pushed a little deeper, and did not pursue the ultimate. Just make sure that the return ball lands behind Djokovic's stance on the previous shot.

In this way, Djokovic must sprint along a 30-degree angle behind him when moving. If the footsteps are not properly adjusted, he may have to hit the ball behind his body. This will affect the ball control and space effects. , The impact of returning the ball line is objective.

Again, spin.

Strong topspin and slight side spin.

After Gao Wen's return hit the ground, the rebound height was still very obvious, and at the same time, it spun slightly towards Djokovic's right, which affected the direction judgment.

Finally, cover.

To put it simply, Gao Wen used a "transition shot" to cover up the details of his shot.

On the surface, this is an offensive opportunity—of course, this is indeed an offensive opportunity, and Gao Wen is giving the offensive initiative to Djokovic; but at the same time, sneakily adding one trap after another to the offensive opportunity, in the Djokovic cheated under his nose.

One hypothesis, what if Djokovic enters the boundary with a forehand diagonally?

Gao Wen is also ready, his footsteps are actually towards the forehand to defend, even if Djokovic's attack is in place, he can still defend.

Then, continue the game and continue the layout, it's that simple.

Facts have proved that Djokovic's forehand did appear to be flawed.

The slash line that should have been the most stable and reliable, and also the forehand slash line that turned the game around in the first set today, broke the balance because of Gao Wen's hidden needle in the return line.

In fact, with Djokovic's ability to draw and wrap the baseline, as long as he wants to, he can easily complete the shot. Gawain's ball is not a threat; but, Djokovic changed his tactical intention and tried to dominate the offense. On the contrary, he acted a little too hastily, and made a mistake in the forehand.

In the post-match technical statistics, this point should be counted as Djokovic's unforced error, but in fact, Gao Wen's game and calculation played an important role. In a simple two-stroke shot, Especially when the opponent's serve is excellent, the trap is skillfully created.

Djokovic was very dissatisfied with his performance. This shot was a simple and basic shot, but he missed the opportunity.

Moreover, the victory in the second set was directly handed over.

This, shouldn't be!

Absolutely not.

"6:4", "4:6".

In the first two sets, Djokovic and Gao Wen each won one set with the same score. Next, the two sides will enter the final set again—

From Melbourne to Indian Wells and then to Miami, the two players met three times and all entered the final set, which once again proved the fierceness of the duel.

So, how should the final set be played?

Soon, Gao Wen realized:

The game changed slightly again. This time, it returned to the familiar routine, and Djokovic began to increase the return of suppressing his own backhand.

Of course, the change in tactics is not one size fits all, but the distribution ratio of the batting line will change, and then slowly change the confrontation pattern.

However, the comparison still exists objectively. Gradually, Gao Wen also noticed the changes in Djokovic. From the first set to the second set and then to the final set, the proportion of forehand attacks showed a gradual downward trend. , and finally returned to the basic routine of their previous duels.

Obviously, from Indian Wells to Miami, there is basically no time interval. Djokovic made tactical adjustments and achieved results; but Djokovic did not fully follow through. , Returning to the game mode I am used to.

The game of you coming and going is happening all the time, and the game situation is also changing rapidly. In addition to tactics, mentality, state, etc., changes in physical strength always play an important role. The lower the physical fitness, the easier it is often Back to the most familiar and safest routine—

In Djokovic's situation, it is often that both ends of the baseline are rolled up, and no matter what the ball comes, all the **** are rolled back, pushing the risk of offense to the opponent.

So, in the final set, as the game progressed, that familiar feeling slowly returned to Gao Wen, and then he gradually took the initiative.

This story, he and he are familiar.

However, Djokovic still gritted his teeth, saved the break point and successfully secured the serve, including a match point, when he was behind "3:4" and "4:5". Pushing to the extreme, the two sides entered the tiebreaker, and the winner must be decided in this way.

"ah!"

"Ahhh!"

Djokovic roared out, secured his serve again, and after dragging the game into a tie-break, the world's No. 1 roared red-faced.

Clenched fists, roaring to the sky, and bulging veins ~lightnovelpub.net~ showed the domineering aura of the king. From the strong duel on the court to the unyielding momentum, this final has entered a fierce stage. The blazing air plunged the entire site into a billowing heat wave.

At any time and under any circumstances, never underestimate the ability and will of the Big Four. Even if the fuel tank has been exhausted, they are still not so easy to fall—

You never know how much energy it takes to beat them until you play against the Big Four.

Gao Wen kept this point firmly in mind, not only did he not relax, but he further improved his concentration in the tie-break and improved his state in an all-round way.

Young people, at this moment, you should show vigor, fight bravely to the end, and then...

broke.

In the tiebreaker of the final set, Gao Wen took the lead in breaking Djokovic's serve points.
