Chapter 1190 A Beginning

In just three or four days, Gao Wen realized that the understanding and presentation of different venues, as well as the attributes and colors of different venues are different.

One trick can indeed be popular all over the world. Relying on advanced equipment technology and updated genetic attributes, the convergence of the younger generation's style of play is becoming more and more obvious; however, it is difficult to go further, and often as you walk, you will My own path became narrower and narrower, and I personally extinguished potential possibilities.

Then, Gao Wen began to try to understand and adjust, and even achieved initial results when facing the "King of Clay" Nadal.

Even if it's just a training match, it's already amazing. After all, Gao Wen only set foot on clay for the first time four days ago.

Involuntarily, Roeg thought of Gao Wen's performance against Isner in Flushing for the first time. At that time, did anyone predict the quality of this dark horse?

Looking at the court, Roig thought, maybe it is a good thing for Nadal that Gawain came to Mallorca for training.

Originally, Uncle Tony’s idea was that since Nadal was ready to establish a tennis school, it would undoubtedly be a good thing to use Gao Wen’s popularity to open up the market; moreover, Uncle Tony appreciated Gao Wen’s training attitude and fully interpreted his professionalism. Unsolicited invitations.

But now, in Roig's view, Gao Wen can bring something brand new, which should have a positive impact on Nadal's improvement.

Just like facing the other Big Three, Nadal can always learn from those challenges and confrontations and continue to improve.

Unknowingly, Gao Wen already possessed different attributes and status in Roig's eyes.

So, what was Gao Wen thinking at this time?

Red clay understands.

Graf once said before that Nadal's understanding of clay is unrivaled in the world, and it can be said to be the best in history. This is also the key to Nadal's ability to widen the gap on clay courts.

Similarly, Gao Wen also tried to understand Hongtu, hoping to find his own answer—

Standing on a hard ground, from basic skills to daily training to growth, seems to have become a habit, and you can be completely good at it without understanding.

It feels like a mother tongue.

The mother tongue has been deeply imprinted in the soul, so that foreigners ask themselves, "Why do you say this here", "What's going on with this grammar", "Is there any law behind this usage", and I can't say no. Come up with a reason, everything is too taken for granted, no need to understand.

However, it is not enough to learn a second language or a third language. From grammar to vocabulary, from etymology to culture, everything needs to be slowly and deeply understood.

That's the case with clay and grass.

When a student knows nothing and starts from scratch, he should humbly ask the teacher for advice and absorb knowledge.

This is also an important goal of today's training match, to learn from the real clay masters.

But slowly, Gao Wen realized that he should adjust his study plan slightly—

For Nadal, red clay is equivalent to his mother tongue, everything is engraved in his genes, and he can't tell why, as if it should be done.

Therefore, the information that Nadal conveyed while standing on the clay was all taken for granted, and in Gao Wen's eyes, it was an undecipherable code.

If you want to learn "grammar", then Gao Wen should still consult professional teachers. Maybe these teachers are not geniuses, and maybe the language of these teachers is not as good as their mother tongue, but their theoretical knowledge can help students make up their minds when learning other languages. Good base and frame.

Here, I specifically refer to Agassi and Stefano Graf—of course, these two may be slightly inferior to Nadal at the clay court level; but compared with other players, they are still at the master level.

So, what should Gawain learn from Nadal?

"Language sense".

When learning a new language, teachers keep emphasizing the "sense of language", which is actually the rhythm, habits, colors and culture of a language. Daily communication with those ordinary native speakers can slowly cultivate this feeling, and use your own soul to experience the hidden feeling.

Obviously, Nadal has a unique advantage in terms of "sense of red earth language".

Gawain is not Nadal, nor can he be Nadal, because there is only one Nadal, and because everyone has a different understanding of the court and tennis.

In the final analysis, you still need to explore by yourself, and finally interpret your own color.

Therefore, Gao Wen began to observe Nadal, and immersed himself in the game to experience it seriously, including hitting, tactics, layout, conception and so on.

Understanding red clay is a complex and difficult subject. Gao Wen did not plan to complete it in a short time, anyway, it is impossible within this week.

However, Gao Wen began to try and fumble, from movement to rotation to hitting, from offense to defense to layout, step by step.

Until the end of the first set, Gao Wen finally figured out something.

The first point, from the bottom line layout to the small ball winning.

This shows that it is not impossible to play variations on clay courts, but the variations must be more sophisticated, and at the same time need to combine changes in line and rotation; more importantly, the entire three-dimensional sense of space on clay courts is different.

On the one hand, the speed of the ball slows down, giving players more time to lay out; on the other hand, due to the venue, the starting speed and movement efficiency have been reduced.

After one plus and one minus, how to make full use of the field space is a new topic, which is obviously different from hard courts. If you continue to stick to the hard court hitting line and tactical layout, it is not impossible, but it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, and the result is the most likely It's just dragging yourself down.

Small ball, this is the use of the depth of the court. Although there are similar tactics on hard courts, the effect on clay courts should be better.

The second point, from controlling the landing point to going to the net with the ball.

In fact, this is also an extension of the variation. By suddenly going online, the rhythm of the entire round is increased, forcing the opponent to feel the direct pressure~lightnovelpub.net~ However, the characteristics of the clay court are also doomed, and the opponent may get more Reaction time, while the party who chooses to go online requires more preparation.

On the one hand, more requirements are placed on the offensive layout of players, and the quality of hitting needs to be guaranteed, so that they can gain an advantage for themselves on the Internet.

On the other hand, this is a choice to enrich the means of offensive winning points. The characteristics of clay courts bring more possibilities. Players need to open their minds. If they stick to the bottom line and fight rounds of tug-of-war, there will be fewer and fewer scoring means , became narrower and narrower, and finally evolved into a war of attrition.

Of course, this is Gao Wen's first official training match, and these things he has figured out are just the beginning, and they need to continue to verify and improve in the future.

However, "everything is difficult at the beginning", at least Gao Wen has taken the first step.

Although clay and hard courts are fundamentally two different things, Gao Wen found that tennis has been enriched again with new venues and new content, and it is very interesting to explore the different aspects and possibilities of this sport again——

It's so much fun!

So, in the case of "30:0", do you want to try something new for the next point?
