Match Point

Chapter 340: second round opponent

Latest website: The next day, Wednesday, the third day of the US Open, Gao Wen did not play.

The biggest difference between a Grand Slam event and a small event is that the lineup is huge, and the men's and women's matches, singles and doubles matches, and the adult group and youth group matches are all played at the same time. The number of matches is A scary number—

Moreover, there are disabled competitions, veteran competitions and so on.

Of course, the game time also needs to be arranged more properly and reasonably.

The first round of competition takes two to three days; every subsequent round of competition, from the second round to the fifth round, is divided into two days. Generally speaking, the second half of the competition is held on the first day, and Let's proceed to the matchup in the upper half.

The semi-finals and finals are a little bit special. The men's and women's games are separated. The general situation is that the women's semi-finals will be held on Thursday in the second week, and the men's semi-finals will be held on Friday. Then Saturday will be the women's final and Sunday will be men's. finals.

The specific schedule is slightly different for the four Grand Slams. For example, Wimbledon always insists on resting on Sunday in the first week, so the schedule of the top sixteen matches on Monday is extremely bloated, and there are countless classic duels. Monday"; but overall, the players played one day, rested one day, played another day, and so on.

Because of the unique schedule, the state adjustment in the Grand Slam is also very important. How to maintain your feel and state on the rest day is for young players, qualifying players, and low-ranking players who have been in the Challenger League all the year round. They are all severe tests.

Today is Gao Wen's rest day.

However, Gao Wen was not disturbed by the outside noise at all, and he was training with Sampras, and Jiang Yanyun and Gao Hongli were also watching.

Gao Wen was practicing footwork, and in less than twenty minutes, his whole body was already drenched in sweat.

Jiang Yanyun has not seen Gao Wen training for a long time. Since high school, Gao Wen has persisted in a foreign country with his perseverance and self-control. Jiang Yanyun knows that Gao Wen's training is very hard, but it is still difficult to witness it with his own eyes. describe.

"...you get what you pay for, and that's true of all professional players."

Gao Hongli also felt sorry for his son, but he still wanted to comfort his wife, but was glared at by Jiang Yanyun.

Jiang Yanyun understands the truth. People only see the brilliance of the players standing under the spotlight, but they don't see the efforts they put in to stand on the field. If they want to make continuous progress, training is the only way.

But the psychology is still not the taste.

Jiang Yanyun noticed Tobias' figure, "John, is Gao Wen's training like this every day?"

Many people don't pay attention to footwork training, but it is actually one of the most difficult items in tennis training.

Tobias didn't feel the emotion behind Jiang Yanyun's words, so he praised him sincerely.

"Daily training has to be even harder, don't you know? Gao Wen is a well-known training madman in school, and other players are afraid of him."

Jiang Yanyun's expression was very complicated, he was relieved and lamented, proud and distressed, he couldn't speak for a while, he didn't know how to express it.

Tobias didn't know what he said wrong. Didn't he just praise Gao Wen? He had to look at Gao Hongli for help.

But Gao Hongli just shook his head, helpless.

click. Click click click click.

Outside the training ground, someone was taking pictures—the problem was that they turned on the flash, obviously wanting to record the picture of Sampras and Gao Wen in the same frame.

Tobias withdrew his thoughts, nodded, and then walked quickly towards the boundary of the training ground to control the situation.

Both Gao Wen and Sampras were not affected and are focusing on training.

“… Burelli is a typical clay court player, not only does he use the spin but also the small **** all the way to the net, so you need to be on your toes.”

This is also the reason why Gao Wen is strengthening the vertical movement of training.

Facing Isner, Gawain could honestly stand on the bottom line, trying to mobilize Isner's running position by constantly changing the way he hit the ball; Both methods and routines need to be adjusted, and you need to be prepared for multi-shot tug-of-war.

"Plus, Burelli is a very good doubles player."

"He is not a typical doubles type, so his doubles game is also very special. The entire line distribution and mobilization are variable. He rarely hits a fixed line all the time, but continuously hits the empty space. files."

"Remember, Burelli's first choice is always the space if there is a gap in the pitch."

This also means that Gao Wen needs to pay attention to filling the position at all times. As long as he can understand this, he can gain a little advantage for Gao Wen when predicting Burley's hitting line; Some inspiration for the return line.

"Moreover, his front-net skills are very delicate. You should have never encountered this type of player. After all, there are basically no net-playing players in the NCAA."

"His small ball, volley, high pressure, unloading and other skills are all passable, so if you encounter an opportunity in front of the net, don't relax, you should play more shots, both defensively and offensively."

When Gao Wen was concentrating on training, Sampras continued to impart experience, and the most important thing was to help Gao Wen analyze the opponent and formulate tactics.

"Peter." The training was finally over, Gawain wiped the sweat off his cheeks, "How are you doing, are you interested in practicing with me?"

Pre-net technology?

Before Federer's strong rise, the serve-and-volley player represented by Sampras was an indispensable part of the tour. His front-net skills are absolutely proficient, and his methods are diverse and hard to guard against.

Although he has retired for many years, Sampras has been playing in the senior game and the exhibition game. His touch is still in good shape, and his serve is also powerful.

Sampras did not refuse, but looked eager to try, "Are you sure?"

That expression was obviously eager to try mischief, as if he was ready to abuse Gao Wen, and he was so excited just by imagining it~lightnovelpub.net~ Gao Wen could see Sampras's undisguised expression at a glance, and couldn't help but With a cheerful smile, "Otherwise, what chance is there to play against Pete Sampras?"

Gao Wen was serious.

Sampras rubbed his palms, without any special expression on his face, muttering "I haven't played for a long time, I don't know how the ball feels", but his movements still revealed eager joy, like a child begging for the rain outside Then finally got permission to go out and step on puddles.

Then, Sampras showed a strange uncle's expression, and walked briskly on the field with a racket.

swish swish.

swish swish.

The side of the training field was boiling, and the burning of the air could be clearly felt without dialogue, and they exchanged glances with each other:

Are they going to see Sampras and Gao Wen sparring? Is this really free to watch?
