Chapter 1260

The air is slightly scorched, and even the sea breeze blowing on the face is mixed with the billowing heat waves, making it hard to breathe.

"5:5".

In the first game, the balance of power was still maintained.

Both sides failed to break serve, and each other performed absolutely strongly in their own serve games. The contest between you and me collided with fierce sparks.

From all aspects, it is indeed in line with the intensity of the Masters finals. If there is no accident, the outcome of the first set should be decided through a tie-break—

This is a high probability event.

However, this is the idea of ​​a bystander. For the opponents on the court, they still hope to win as soon as possible to avoid tie-breaks.

In the tie-break, the factors of luck and accidents are magnified, a little mistake or deviation may lead to a total loss, just like gambling, so, if possible, the players hope to win before the tie-break comes, only very, very A handful of players enjoyed the thrill of the tie-break:

For example, cannons like Isner and Karlovic.

In the same way, among the two sides in today's final, the Sock combination may be a little more welcoming to the tie-break.

After all, Sock's combination has an advantage in serving, and entering the tie-break, the psychological advantage may be a little ahead. Of course, this is only a theoretical possibility on paper.

Next, Sock's serve—

The Sock combination must keep their serve in order to ensure that they can seize the opportunity and put all the pressure on their opponents.

As for the combination of Gao Wen, if they want to avoid the tiebreaker, Sock's serve is the last chance, otherwise their momentum will be suppressed, first they have to face the pressure of the serve that must be guaranteed, and then they have to face the pressure of the serve. Against the disadvantage of the tie-break, layers of pressure are stacked up like this.

Because of this, the closer to the end of the game, the more obvious the pressure; the closer to the victory, the more intense the situation.

"30:0".

The Sock combination still performed well.

Judging from the performance of the first set so far, they are very well prepared. The first three shots of the serve and the serve rush, the tactical layout is clear, the execution is precise, and the confrontation is quickly ended before the round ball drags into a tug-of-war. Very crisp and in really good shape.

No wonder they were able to reach the finals of three consecutive Masters.

"30:30".

Gao Wen's combination, hot pursuit.

Relying on Sock's forehand off the net and Dimitrov's high pressure in front of the net, they quickly recovered two points and dragged the game into a tie.

From Indian Wells to Monte Carlo, Gawain and Dimitrov's second partnership, the biggest change is not the tacit cooperation between the two, but the transformation of Dimitrov's state, which can be clearly felt. The top ten players in the world are recovering their game feel.

Dimitrov's touch and ball feel are indeed enviable. It is not without reason that people are called "Little Federer".

In doubles matches, Dimitrov's pre-net handling often has amazing performances. Even if he can't score directly, he can still put his opponent into a passive situation through the control of returning the ball; coupled with Gao Wen's tactical layout and bottom line support, they It also showed top combat effectiveness in Monte Carlo.

Purely in terms of competitive status, today's opponents are at a small peak in the near future, which is also the direct reason why both sides can break into the finals—

In the first game, the Gao Wen team only got two break points and missed all of them; the Sock team only got one break point and failed to cash in.

Simply put, there are not many opportunities for break points.

At the critical moment, both pairs can quickly improve the game state and regain the initiative. However, the atmosphere, pressure, and mentality will undergo subtle changes in the early, middle, and end of the game, and there will be many possibilities in the confrontation situation. appear inadvertently.

At this time, "30:30", the atmosphere became tense again.

The Sock team returned to the baseline, with their backs to the court, and exchanged in a low voice the serving tactics for the next point.

At the same time, the Gaowen Group also stood at the bottom line and exchanged opinions.

After two rounds of running-in, the tacit understanding between Gao Wen and Dimitrov is indeed growing. In just a few words and two glances, Dimitrov has already understood, and there is a touch of determination in his eyes. He completely believed in Gao Wen's interpretation of the battle situation and his tactical arrangements.

In fact, both sides know what to expect next:

The Gao Wen team tried to break the game, break the balance, win the opportunity to break serve, and even break serve directly.

The Sock combination seized the opportunity, seized the initiative, held the serve strongly, and extinguished the strong impact of the opponent.

The key lies in this calculation and calculation, who can turn his head faster and execute it more resolutely.

The game is in progress.

Snapped. Snapped.

Sock, ready to serve—

Sock served, Gao Wen received the serve, and Dimitrov and Pospisil stood diagonally in front of the net.

Dimitrov glanced at Pospisir, his gaze fell on the wrist of Pospisir's racket, and Gawain's analysis came to mind:

Today, Sock and Pospihir obviously developed a tactic, and the volley in front of the net was mainly chasing the body.

In other words, when the opportunity to volley in front of the net appears, most of them are hitting the position of the defending player in front of the net instead of looking for a gap.

The tactical intention is very direct, compressing the reaction time, improving the rhythm of the game as much as possible, transforming clay into grass, and expanding their advantages.

Occasionally, they will also mix and intersperse the choice of different volley lines to avoid being seen as a routine, and at the same time can create unexpected effects; but generally speaking, the first volley, in the case of conditioned reflex or active attack, chases the body The odds of volleying skyrocketed.

So, this time too?

In Gao Wen's words, "Even if it is not, we have to create a trap to induce him to do so."

To break the game, start with Pospihir.

Gao Wen swears, it's definitely not because of personal grievances, it's purely because Bospisir is stupider—er, to be precise, because Bosspisir is the weak link of the opposing team.

The reason is that simple.

Dimitrov concentrated his attention, bent and squatted down, kept his center of gravity light, and fixed his eyes on Sock who was preparing to serve in the first zone.

Kick off!

Throw the ball!

swing!

outer corner.

Sock ~lightnovelpub.net~ chose the outer corner for the first serve, with a speed of 199 kilometers per hour, a symbolic strong flat serve.

boom!

The tennis ball hit the past like a heavy artillery.

Dimitrov quickly straightened his knees, straightened his waist, stood on tiptoes, adjusted his center of gravity continuously, and jumped lightly as if springs were stuffed in his knees.

Immediately afterwards, without looking back, you can see the mustard yellow light and shadow trail from the corner of your vision, dragging its long tail and walking along a straight line.

straight line!

chase!

From the point of view of the route, it is indeed a straight line; but from the point of view of the landing point, it is chasing the ball back, tennis, and aiming at Pospisil's position.

shock!

Dimitrov caught the slightly panicked expression of Pospisir at the first time, adjusted his body in small steps, his body was like a bow and arrow slowly drawn, and then saw that Pospisir couldn't dodge in time, and subconsciously moved his backhand Intercepted a beat—

Slash!

Sure enough, it was a slash, flying towards Dimitrov, and the sheep fell into the tiger's mouth.
