Latest URL: "disk (set), high, 6:2".

The referee's voice echoed over Court No. 1, and amidst the din of the audience, he announced the final score of the first set.

Gao Wen, play the next game first.

Zverev Jr. has never been able to find the touch in the opening stage. To be precise, it should be that he has never been able to find an effective means of scoring. The hitting lacks purpose, that is, blindly exerting force and returning the ball blindly. Only the body is moving on the court. When hitting the ball, the brain does not turn.

To put it simply, it is the playing style of teenagers, which is not much different from the NCAA, relying only on physical talent to hit the ball.

Gao Wen is very familiar with this kind of game. Even if Zverev Jr. is talented and better than Saramento, it can't really shake Gao Wen's ability to control the game. After all, Zverev Jr.'s strength and explosiveness are Short board, unable to suppress Gao Wen.

So, first protect and then break, then protect and then break, "4:0", Gao Wen gained an absolute advantage in the opening stage.

At the end of the first set, Zverev Jr. finally calmed down a little bit, found the state of his serve, and sent ACEs consecutively. This completed the first guarantee, but the score in the first set was too far behind, and he could not catch up. In the end, Gao Wen firmly won the first set.

Is this a standard ending?

In this year's Binghamton Challenge, Zverev Jr. was always like this. In the first four rounds, the first and third rounds all inexplicably lost the first set victory and then pulled two consecutive sets to advance. There were two straight sets in the first round, but the first set was also inextricably fought, and it was not until the semi-finals that they recovered their form.

Slow heat, this seems to have become the label of Zverev Jr., and the local audience in Binghamton has already seen it.

At this time, seeing Zverev Jr. lost another set first against Gawain, the audience shouted bustlingly.

"Please, Sasha, wake up and don't sleep."

"Sasha, hangover sober now?"

"Routine, routine, I have read this script, Sasha."

"Can you change the script, Sasha, this one doesn't look good now."

"Sasha, Best Actor, Best Actor Oscar!"

Hahaha.

All the audience burst into laughter, laughing and jokingly teasing Zverev Jr., because the script was so familiar, the audience was not too surprised. Just look at the last four games of the first set, and Zverev Jr. has gradually recovered. status, which also means that the second set should look good, so they still have the mind to joke—

Although the first set was almost a hit.

But to Zverev Jr., it wasn't funny at all.

How can it be? How could this be?

He dropped the first set against that unworthy nobody, and in such a disgraceful way? This is simply a great shame!

Hearing the laughter at the scene, the first reaction of the young Zverev was to shut them up, but the remaining rationality told him that it was inappropriate to do so, so what should we do?

Bang! Bang Bang Bang!

Little Zverev slammed his racket to the ground hard, one click! Twice! Three times! Then the racket was directly smashed into a twisted twist, and it was impossible to use it again, so I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Angrily returning to the players' rest area, Zverev Jr. grabbed a bottle of mineral water and gulped it down. The burst of veins on his arm could still tell that the anger was still there, but his brain finally calmed down a little. Think about it, how did you lose the first set?

Is it really just a slow heat?

Since the last game of the first set was Gao Wen's serve, the second set started with Zverev Jr.'s serve, and Zverev Jr. finally got his wish and took the lead to serve.

Ping ping pong.

In a blink of an eye, Zverev Jr. had already achieved a "30:0" lead, continuing his good form at the end of the first set. Although he made a mistake in the next point, he still maintained a "30:15" lead.

Variety?

Zverev Jr. has indeed made changes, mainly in two points. The first point is to strengthen the serve. The first point in the second set is an ACE ball. He does have such an ability; the second point is to take the initiative to attack. Or in other words, take the initiative.

Although strength and explosiveness are the shortcomings of Zverev Jr., they are only relative terms. In fact, he still has the ability to actively attack, even if he cannot compete with the violence of Del Potro, Kyrgios, and Safin. They are comparable to each other, and they also have the potential of a first-class player.

The three points in this round, except for the two points of ACE, were all led by Zverev Jr., scoring once and making a mistake once.

Little Zverev was changing, while Gao Wen was judging: What do these signs indicate?

It shows that Zverev Jr., who is only seventeen years old, is still not good enough to read the game, and he is far from growing up. His summary and judgment of the first set is:

Not working hard enough.

Because of the lack of suppression at the level of strength, he failed to bring enough impact to Gao Wen, so he fell into the passive position repeatedly, so he began to exert strength, improving the release of strength in the two links of serve and forehand, and the number of active strikes also increased significantly.

Is this judgment correct?

Can't say it's wrong.

At least on the surface, Zverev Jr. failed to put more pressure on Gawain on the offensive end in the first set, and indeed allowed Gawain to deploy his hands and feet.

But the essential reason is the layout of the batting line and the wisdom of on-the-spot response—

Zverev Jr.'s batting style is monotonous and continuous, and the line is also predictable and lacks changes. This also makes Gao Wen's changes always ahead of Zverev Jr., and after strong collisions China always has the upper hand.

As I said before, in professional games, talents are often the same. It is very, very difficult to suppress opponents with strength and speed, even for a super genius like Kyrgios; this also means However, the real competition in professional games is state, brain and spirit.

Zverev Jr.'s batting ability is indeed very good. At least at this stage, his ability is already one position ahead of Gawain, but his baseline hitting ability is strong but he cannot form an advantage in line changes, so it is useless. There is a brute force.

The start of the second set seemed to be like this. It seemed to be vigorous and vigorous, and Zverev's morale was soaring rapidly, but on this side, Gao Wen remained as still as a mountain, and was always observing calmly.

At least in the opening stage~lightnovelpub.net~ Gao Wen's judgment was so, and the next point further confirmed Gao Wen's thoughts.

work hard! work hard! work hard!

Zverev Jr. made three shots in a row, and the offensive was like a wave, but there was nothing new in the route, all of which were accurately predicted by Gao Wen:

Slash, slash, straight line.

Gawain's lateral movement ability was brought into full play. Although Zverev Jr.'s offense was stronger than the other, so that Gawain was still unable to reverse the disadvantaged situation, but the defense was always in place in time. Zverev Jr. Gao Wen tenaciously defended all the forehand attacks that he was determined to win.

boom! boom! boom!

It looked vigorous, but Zverev Jr. was still unable to score. The anxious situation made the audience hold their breath.

Then on the next shot, you can see that Zverev Jr. has gone directly into the baseline, ready to enter the first half to put pressure—

Aggressive!
