Match Point

Chapter 694: fleeting

"Match Point(

One hair speed, 169 kilometers per hour.

It was even slower than the first serve of many female players, which really broke Gawain's expectations, after all, Djokovic is rarely like this.

At the same time, Djokovic increased the violent friction. After the tennis ball hit the ground, it gave off a strong top spin, and after landing near the T point, it jumped up high.

One kick is enough.

To be precise, Gao Wen's whole body has been lifted into the air, but it is still difficult to stretch his backhand with both hands. He was pinned and hit the ball above the shoulder line.

Very very awkward.

Not to mention the lack of control, even the basic shots were almost impossible to complete; moreover, because the serve lacked strength, Gao Wen couldn't borrow it, and in the end he just used the power of his wrist to make a slight turn to pull the tennis ball back. , Trying to skim towards the opposite court.

Danger!

Gao Wen already knew that the situation was critical without observing Djokovic's position. Obviously, this serve was a trap carefully planned by Djokovic.

Tread Tread.

Tread Tread.

At this time, my mind was clear, my attention was highly concentrated, I was concentrating on sprinting horizontally, and my eyes were fixed on Djokovic who quickly entered the court.

Go online!

Djokovic immediately noticed that Gao Wen's return was shallow, and the entire parabola was not suppressed. This was an obvious high-pressure opportunity.

high pressure?

It is not a secret that Djokovic must pick out a shortcoming among all kinds of skills that can be called comprehensive, and that is the high pressure in front of the net.

Djokovic's high pressure in front of the net has always been technically flawed.

On the one hand, it is his sense of three-dimensional space in front of the net, and his talent is average. Obviously, his achievements in the doubles field should not be as good as one-tenth of what he is now.

On the other hand, his batting action and the way of exerting force are always not smooth, so that it is difficult for him to exert force, and he often relies on his wrist to buckle down abruptly. Naturally, it is difficult to control the angle, and he is not paying attention. will be out of control.

Over time, Djokovic's strong psychological toughness, when facing the high pressure in front of the net, there is a gap. Even he does not trust his high pressure in front of the net, and even often makes outrageous simple mistakes.

So, what about this time?

Tread Tread.

Gao Wen's footsteps moving sideways were light and nimble, and he watched Djokovic's movements intently.

Kick off.

jump.

Soon, Djokovic noticed that the height of the entire arc was slightly beyond his own judgment, because Gawain's shot was a subconscious conditioned reflex, and he had no control at all, so Gawain himself did not expect the rotation and parabola. What the **** is going on, it actually has a little side spin.

But this is still not a problem, Djokovic takes the absolute initiative.

Lean back.

push down.

spike!

"Hands are softening."

When Gawain saw the shot with the wrist, he immediately realized that Djokovic did not dare to exert all his strength, but relied on his arm swing and wrist downward movement to complete a block—

Simply put, it's not a slam dunk, it's a block.

The former needs to take the initiative to exert force, while the latter is to block the downward pressure.

This ball is not over yet.

Slash, Gao Wen accurately predicted the direction!

One pedal, emergency brake.

Turn around and send your body forward.

With a wave, the racket faces forward.

The whole batting action is done in one go, the backhand swing with both hands is very full and full, and with the forward movement of the body, it rushes up, using the soft wrapping of the wrist to complete the pushing with force.

Change the line!

A backhand shot with both hands turned into a light and shadow and rushed out directly.

However!

Djokovic seemed to have anticipated Gawain's return route long ago. He adjusted his footsteps in a daze, moved laterally, and completed an interception near the bottom line of his right teeing area. The location of the shallow area of ​​the line.

Whoosh!

It can be heard from the sound of hitting the ball that Djokovic unloaded very lightly.

trap!

It turned out to be a trap!

Djokovic also realized that this point is very important, and his high-pressure ball is not worthy of trust, so he simply completed a down-press skillfully, and accurately predicted Gao Wen's straight line to break the net, a horizontal net The forward volley pushed Gawain into the bottomless abyss.

Immediately afterwards, Djokovic's footsteps were already directly attached to the net, further forming pressure in front of the net—

Djokovic's baseline ability is known as "unmatched in the world", which is also his main style of play, but at the end of last year, he hired German Becker as his coach, and slowly began to improve his net skills. It also made the content of his game slowly begin to enrich.

Perhaps, Djokovic's pre-net awareness still needs more training, but at least he is now bolder and more decisive.

At this time, Djokovic's footsteps were very firm.

But Gawain didn't have time to catch his breath, he was completely focused on himself, his footsteps ran wildly, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the tennis ball:

After unloading the force, the height of the tennis ball bouncing on the ground is very low; and the landing point is very shallow, which further expands the space between Gao Wen and the tennis ball.

The only good thing is that Djokovic didn't have much time to adjust, and his pre-net skills were still lacking in polishing, so he lacked a bit of control over his landing.

Ideally, this return ball should fall within the teeing area of ​​Gao Wen's first area, which is equivalent to a small ball, so that Gao Wen's running distance will be greater; but now, the return ball falls on the tee area and the baseline The midfield position between ~lightnovelpub.net~ left a little breathing room for Gao Wen—

But only a little bit.

Run, run as fast as you can.

At the same time, the center of gravity sinks.

Gao Wen could almost feel his knee hitting his stomach, his whole body leaned forward, and his forehand cut into the ground and the tennis ball in a way of fishing for the moon.

At the moment when the ball was released, the wrist did a tricky flip. It was not a fake move, but increased rotation, and cut a side spin back to the ball.

The angle of the return ball could not be opened, and Djokovic took a horizontal step towards his left, and he was already in place. The two-handed backhand evolved into a one-handed backhand, and he cut a shot lightly.

However, at the moment when he was about to shoot, Djokovic realized the space created by the strong side spin, so that the hitting point slightly deviated from the expected sweet spot, which also made Djokovic more careful in controlling the ball. Some.

Damn it!

Djokovic realized that it was not good just after hitting the ball, because he was too careful, the quality of this shot is really not flattering—

The lines are too long and the angles are not open.

This is basically giving Gao Wen a chance to defend, but Djokovic's footsteps immediately stick to the front of the net, completely covering all the lines.

"ah!"

Gao Wen's body was almost about to lose its center of gravity. He stopped and spun suddenly, stopped and spun suddenly, stopped and spun again, and within a short period of time, he had changed direction for the third time and sprinted at a fixed point. His entire lungs were burning, as if Every breath is magma, which is about to explode in minutes, and the head is full of heat waves.

But what about tennis?

Gao Wen's pupils reflected the flying and falling tennis balls, and his messy footsteps still pushed his body to run wildly.

Chance, this is his chance!

Djokovic has already softened his hands twice in a row, hasn't he?
