Chapter 1466 Defensive Counterattack
Stalemate, stalemate—
"40: AD".
Facing the break point, after briefly venting his anger and irritability, Wawrinka cleared away distracting thoughts and regained his calm, and became decisive again in his strikes.
In a tennis match, along with changes in the situation, subtle changes in mentality also occur all the time, every point and every point is different.
Wawrinka found an accurate landing point for a close-up forehand, and the first serve finally entered the zone smoothly. The serve at a speed of 188 kilometers per hour successfully squeezed Gao Wen, giving Wawrinka the advantage of serving. Immediately afterwards, he did not hesitate He quickly launched a sideways forehand attack, but the line of the backslash was seen through.
Thus, the round ended in a stalemate.
From "Forehand VS Forehand", to "Backhand VS Backhand", to "Forehand VS Backhand", the hitting lines of the two players are all over different corners of the court.
In this round, both players maintained a high degree of vigilance, and the prediction and positioning were very timely, so that the opponent did not have too many shots, forcing both sides to not easily tear apart the angle when attacking-of course, the special score is also a factor. Have a certain impact on the psychological level.
In addition, don't forget that this is the end of the fourth set, and two consecutive serve games have been struggling. Not to mention the impact of physical strength, the mental tension will further burn physical energy quickly. After entering the anaerobic state, exert strength and make shots It is inevitable that there will be deviations, and even the process of accumulating strength is required.
This is also a key.
Hitting the ball, because there is no suitable opportunity, so I did not aim at the corners and attack, leaving space for defense or counterattack.
Back and forth, the round became stalemate and stalemate like this. The figures of the two players were all over the audience, both of them were planning, both of them were fighting, and both of them were suppressing. With enough advantage established, the air becomes tense.
Ten beats.
Twenty beats.
During the period, both players tried to break the balance, but in the end neither succeeded—
Wawrinka's two consecutive backhands slashed the angle severely, but Gao Wen's high-quality defense in the backhand position, with a shot to press the line, he pressed back Wawrinka's aggressive offensive again. The suspected out-of-bounds ball detonated Philippe Chatier's exclamation from the audience.
Gao Wen's straight forehand attack also broke the balance of Wawrinka's footsteps. Seeing that Wawrinka had lost his center of gravity, but the backhand straight back shot under extreme difficulties completely overturned Gao Wen's judgment. The ball was not able to apply the pressure consistently.
Both players have brought their abilities and characteristics to the extreme. The offensive and defensive transitions between you and me make every shot full of countless possibilities.
… thirty beats.
In a blink of an eye, the two players had been deadlocked for more than 30 shots—without a doubt, this was already the longest round of the game, and they finally showed Roland Garros' clay-court qualities, wearable and durable. The real test is not only It's not just offense, it's not just defense, it's all-around capability.
"ah!"
Wawrinka let out a muffled grunt, and Gao Wen hit a transitional shot, but the skateboard in the middle position did not exert force when hitting the ball, relying entirely on ingenuity, controlling the line and landing point, but it produced extraordinary effects, the forehand The backslash shot landed in the shallow area of Wawrinka's backhand sideline, spinning and flying sideways.
Although it was a light hit, Wawrinka's footsteps were mobilized to the doubles area, and his messy footsteps were slightly unable to keep up. His body was protesting. For such a short moment, he couldn't adjust his breathing. Naturally, from footsteps to swing When it comes to exerting force, one hair will move the whole body.
Uh, uh ah ah ah ah ah...
Wawrinka, unyielding, forcibly exerted force, backhanded with one hand, and attacked strongly.
Sharp, tough, tricky, chic.
Slash!
In a passive situation, Wawrinka once again burned the small universe, playing a super **** state, one-handed backhand with a slash to break the balance strongly, and the angle was torn apart.
With just one shot of the ball, Gao Wen, who had taken the initiative just now, fell into a passive position in an instant, because Wawrinka's backhand slash completely opened up the angle, so that Gao Wen's footsteps had to enter the doubles area, and it was not even in place, which directly caused The two-handed backhand swing is incomplete—
Although Gao Wen still successfully hit the ball, the closing movement of the racket head was still a little slower, and the parabola of the tennis ball rose directly.
The arc, not high, not quite to the point of a lob, but it does appear to be higher than the usual return arc, and the spin and speed have slowed down.
Chance!
It was an opportunity for Wawrinka, and Wawrinka, who had completed the explosion of the burning small universe, did not miss it, and his footsteps entered the bottom line immediately.
Push the ground, move forward, press.
Wawrinka quickly came to the midfield, and without waiting for the tennis ball to land, he pressed up all over, and directly launched a midfield volley, compressing the rhythm of returning the ball to the extreme.
"ah!"
Forehand, power, full release.
On the other side of the stadium, Gao Wen could feel the power of Peng Bai coming layer upon layer, and the turbulent momentum rushed down unreasonably, and even the dense cloud covering the Philippe Chartier stadium followed. Shen, the world just escaped into darkness.
However, Gawain did not give up—
With a kick, the left leg braked, and then the kick broke out, and the body was pushed out.
With one step, the feet alternate, and the sprint of lateral movement enters a state of ecstasy.
The only good thing is that in order to compress the rhythm of returning the ball, Wawrinka chose to volley. While compressing Gawain's reaction time, he also compressed his own hitting time, so he did not choose too risky routes and placements. Just choose a straight line to hit the ball in a regular manner.
Tennis balls, back to the center of the court on Gao Wen's side, close to the left side, just on the route of Gao Wen's horizontal sprint—
It's like a crossroads.
Tennis goes down from the north side, Gawain goes right from the west side, and then meet at the intersection.
boom!
Gao Wen's forehand had already hit it, and the violent vibration above the line was transmitted to his wrist very clearly, and even his forearm trembled slightly. At this moment, he could feel the impact of Wawrinka's volley. Power ~lightnovelpub.net~ The powerful tail force is stirring between the strings.
Well.
Gao Wen snorted, although he finished hitting the ball, he didn't have any control time in a hurry, so he could only pick up the tennis ball very, very embarrassingly.
There is no spin, no control, no strength, no time and space, and the high ball is Gao Wen's only choice when he is absolutely passive.
Tennis ball, high into the sky, trying to go over—
Wawrinka, with a height of 183 cm, was not enough to stand opposite Gawain, and his ability to cover the net was also a bit cumbersome due to his footsteps.
At this time, Wawrinka also realized the crisis.
In tennis matches, the ability to raise the ball is often overlooked; but watching Nadal's game, you can know that this very passive skill is often the key shot for him to reverse the situation. When, it can shine brilliantly.
The same is true for Gao Wen.
The high ball under the extremely passive, light and agile, jumped over the top of Wawrinka's head thrillingly, and flew towards the gap at the back of the court.
