It can be seen that Kei Nishikori started his layout, created an opportunity with a backslash in his forehand, and immediately followed-

In fact, Kei Nishikori's front-net skills are also a shortcoming of Kei Nishikori, mainly due to his height. Both volleys and high-pressure techniques in front of the net lack a little competitiveness; Very good.

what to do?

If he hits the ball according to the routine, it is basically equivalent to going straight into the tiger's mouth. He has to change the hitting line and landing point, such as hitting a small diagonal line, or landing at the foot of Kei Nishikori. Through this line changes to disrupt Kei Nishikori's surfing rhythm—

This is Federer's best shot.

But Gao Wen's batting is still too routine. With Kei Nishikori's hot touch, he may be able to handle it. He needs to break the frame of fixed thinking.

He has two choices, either change the line, but now there is not enough room to hit the ball, I am afraid the success rate is not high; or...

During the retreat process, Nishikori simply took off on the spot and tried to intercept halfway. However, the racket raised high went down waved, but directly waved away—

Gawain's arc control is perfect!

Kei Nishikori didn't have time to sigh, turned around and rushed forward, trying to catch up with Gao Wen's lob, and then found that Gao Wen's lob was controlled too precisely, it not only landed on the sideline, but also a backhand bottom line big triangle The dead corner and perfect control ruined all the advantages of Kei Nishikori.
