Match Point

Chapter 2046: Counterattack 1 hit

Everything is not unfamiliar—

Relying on the serve layout to establish an advantage, and then choosing a sideways forehand hammer to target the winning point in the next shot. This is Nadal's classic offensive routine.

Classic, why is it called a classic? It is because of its longevity. Nadal's understanding of spin, connection of attacks, and use of forehand are absolutely top-notch. Even if his opponent sees through the routine, he can always succeed.

According to statistics, it is Nadal who has the highest scoring rate in the second shot after serving, which is better than those big serving cannons.

At "30:30", Nadal used such a tactical routine to score points in one area, and now it is the same at "40:40".

A sideways forehand, the sound of hitting the ball was accompanied by a roar.

The tennis ball turned into a line of light and shadow and penetrated into Gawain's right side along a diagonal line.

Gawain, all attention—

A long stride, no unnecessary foot movement, the forehand is completely stretched out like a roc spreading its wings, extending the body in the direction of movement, without waiting or hesitation, swinging the arms quickly.

Swing your arms like a fist.

Once hit, use the force to hit.

ah!

The energy deep in the Dantian is released without reservation, and the forearms and wrists are completely swung. The energy released instantly increases the speed of the racket head to a whole new level.

Ahhhh!

One touch, just a moment, and the body and arms were completely pushed out.

boom!

Hit the ball cleanly.

The tennis ball had directly hit the wall and flew out. The collision of strength and power evolved into the superposition of speed and speed. It once exceeded the ability of sight to capture, leaving only an afterimage, majestically crossing the court.

straight line.

Actually, straight line!

Nadal realized the crisis immediately and rushed out without adjusting his steps. But as soon as he started, he saw the tennis ball penetrate the entire court and hit the bottom line barrier with a loud bang.

—The winning point belongs to Gawain.

The game against Nadal is different from Federer, Djokovic and so on.

He needs to be prepared for long rounds of entanglement, switching between offense and defense many times. Opportunities may appear at any time but may not be realized. Patience and determination are very important; at the same time, he also needs to be prepared to break the routine, and more Being firm, decisive and courageous, belief and courage in victory are also very important.

At this point, Gawain demonstrates the latter.

Strong collisions, sparks flying.

Buzz.

The audience was completely silent, and there was no time to react. The point was over. After a pause, the overwhelming excitement and excitement instantly swallowed up the brain, and then it fell into a frenzy of restlessness.

"40: Ad."

Break point, again.

Gawain clenched his fists heavily and looked at Nadal on the other side of the net with firm and bright eyes. His belief was burning brightly, and he forced all his fighting spirit under the limit, and the game really entered a fever pitch.

However, across the net, Nadal was unmoved, not annoyed or depressed, completely focused on himself and preparing for the next point.

He didn't flinch either -

The final set has reached the second half, and the pressure is the same for both people; moreover, both of them are now in the best competitive state, forgetting everything and being fully committed. It all depends on their performance on the spot. Opportunities will come to both of them. It is said that they are all equal.

not to mention!

Never forget that Nadal is Nadal because of his tenacity.

Nadal, still calm, still calm, still step by step.

Then, serve.

…continue inside corner?

Yes, it's still the inner corner.

In the fourth consecutive inside corner, just like the previous point, Nadal still mixed his own spin in the seemingly repetitive serve, bringing different effects.

The inside corner of the second area, to be precise, is actually a close-up forehand. On the surface, it looks ordinary, but in fact, after landing, it spins out and continues to fly towards the right.

Not internal rotation, but external rotation.

As a result, Gawain felt a little embarrassed.

Originally, Gao Wen had already moved out of the way and was preparing to hit the ball with his forehand, but when he was ready to swing the racket, he found that the tennis ball was "escaping" from his body, and the hitting point kept running away; moreover, his upper body was moving backward to the left. Upward, now it needs to be extended in the opposite direction.

The hitting point is very awkward.

It is such details that make the shot feel different even if Gawain accurately predicts it.

Nadal's serve has always been like this. It seems ordinary but has hidden secrets. Therefore, when playing on clay courts, you can often see Djokovic having to keep his eyes wide open when facing Nadal when preparing to receive the serve, just to see Clear rotation.

Gao Wen was fully focused and reacted immediately, but the hitting point was still a little awkward, and his forehand swing failed to combine force accurately.

Hit the ball down the middle and back to the right of Nadal's body.

Unintentionally, Gawain's shot also had some side spin; and this time the parabola was lower and had no power, but the flight speed was pretty good.

Nadal made a judgment and did not choose to turn sideways, but just hit the shot in a straight line from the forehand position.

Nothing fancy, just solid -

It's heavy enough and turns enough to hit it head-on.

Gao Wen's movement was not difficult. He took two steps towards the forehand position and was already in position smoothly. However, his forehand was a bit unable to hold the ball. Nadal's shot had sufficient top spin and power, and the pressure formed by the entire ball was like a He punched his chest so hard that he couldn't hold back the force of the ball.

The hitting position was near the ear, and Gao Wen did not retreat in his steps, so it was difficult to exert force; if he just used force to hit, UU Reading www.uukanshu. com's strong rotation causes the racket angle to deform.

This kind of shot is exactly Nadal's daily routine. It is constantly squeezed by the quality of the ball. Even the simplest and most ordinary shot can bring a threat.

But Gawain was also ready and took a trip—

Djokovic-esque.

Wrap the tennis ball and push it back toward the deep baseline area.

In fact, many times, when Djokovic faces Nadal, his tactics are very simple, that is, the left and right sidelines keep passing the ball back and forth.

Djokovic relies on his unparalleled ball-driving ability to always wrap up Nadal's rotation and look for opportunities in the back and forth.

Now, so does Gawain.

However, Gao Wen's ability to dribble is still not as good as Djokovic's. Although the return ball landed on the baseline, Nadal was almost forced to complete the rebound at his feet; but the quality of the ball was average, and Nadal bent his knees to lower his center of gravity. He finished the ball at his feet, but relied on his backhand to whip out a looping shot.

The tennis ball, along the direction of the backslash, went towards the blind corner of the bottom line on the left side of Gao Wen.

He not only mobilized Gawain, but also used the landing point to create pressure. In the slow-paced hitting, the power of spin was brought into full play.

Gawain, concentrating on the tennis ball, looked at Nadal from the corner of his eye, and he already made a judgment in a flash.

The steps are in place smoothly.

Both hands, lead the shot early.

However, when Gawain was about to launch an attack, he changed his grip before taking action and used a two-handed backhand to cut a straight shot and push it back.

Rhythm, slow down, slow down again.

The calculations and games in the confrontation gradually overflowed with tension. Both players were completing the layout through control, and the collision of brains could be seen in the flash of lightning.
