Chapter 910: Adapt to circumstances

Chapter 911

Etc., etc! What's going on?

Why is it suddenly "15:40"?

Since the third set, Murray's serve has remained calm, and Gao Wen's turnovers have also increased significantly, but why did the situation change suddenly in this game?

This is simply unexpected.

hum...

There was a roar in the brain.

Zhang Sheng could vaguely see it.

In this round, Gao Wen increased his aggression, and the rhythm of the entire batting connection was obviously accelerated; and... it was more than that.

"Line selection."

"For the three points just now, Gao Wen's line change was very sudden and timely. He broke the deadlock before Murray and broke Murray's prediction."

"A return ACE, a backhand return, a forehand straight line, all three points fell on Murray's backhand."

"But the important point is that Murray's backhand state has not declined, but Murray's prediction has problems, and Gao Wen has been breaking the batting pattern."

"Murray was a little caught off guard. Obviously, due to the decline in physical strength, Murray's defensive quality fluctuated, and his entire batting awareness also fluctuated."

"Gao Wen, seize the opportunity."

For three points, the number of rounds was compressed very short, all of which were under five beats. That is to say, the rhythm of the game suddenly accelerated, as if the accelerator pedal of a car was pushed to the bottom, and the speed went directly from 5 kilometers per hour to 120 kilometers per hour.

Perhaps, a speed of 120 kilometers per hour is nothing, but the entire acceleration process is too fast, and it can easily break the balance.

Could it be... all of this is Gao Wen's layout?

A bold idea appeared in Zhang Sheng's mind, but he didn't dare to express it. He turned his head and saw Wu Wensheng who was also surprised.

Plop, plop, the heart was beating crazily, so that the bones in his chest couldn't help but ache.

The air is burning.

The suffocating tension can be clearly felt throughout the Rod Laver Stadium, because the third set has entered the second half. Once either side breaks serve, the price may be to lose the entire third set.

Moreover, Murray was the one to serve last in this set. If he lost this set, it would be Gao Wen's serve to win the set.

Not only the audience, but Murray also came to the scene to feel the pressure at close range.

call.

Murray let out a long breath.

a district.

One shot, in.

At the critical moment, Murray still showed the demeanor of the Big Four, overcoming the test of extreme physical strength with his own experience, and found his own shot.

And, with tactics.

The serve speed of 177 kilometers per hour is obviously not fast. In any case, if you have no physical strength, you have no physical strength. At this time, if you want to explode, you will not be able to explode; what's more, with two consecutive break points, Murray can't use up all his physical strength regardless. It must be laid out more rationally and intelligently.

Therefore, for this serve, I chose the inner corner of the close body to press the backhand.

Murray noticed that Gao Wen's footsteps were standing one foot behind the baseline to receive the serve, and the entire serve receiving tactic was still aggressive.

But the first shot and the second shot are still different after all, and Gao Wen's mentality and reaction must also be different.

Murray grasped such details and sent a medium-speed shot with a deep landing and a high bounce, using the bounced spin to squeeze Gao Wen.

It's somewhat similar to Nadal's second serve.

really!

It worked!

With a deterrent shot and the limitation of the landing point in the deep area, it is difficult for Gao Wen to grab the rising point; with a deviation of one millisecond, the bounce and rotation of the tennis ball have been completely released.

Gao Wen was caught off guard.

Then, Gao Wen was already squeezed, his backhand was pinned to his side, and he couldn't stretch it at all. He jumped up awkwardly, and at the position near his shoulders, he barely pushed his right hand with his left hand to block the tennis ball. .

Whoosh!

The tennis ball draws a high arc, spinning at high speed, fluttering and erratic.

It can be seen from the flight trajectory and arc that Gao Wen basically had no control over the return of the shot, and the return fell near the bottom line of the teeing area.

This is a great opportunity to get online.

Murray, however, did not.

When the physical strength declines, Federer and Nadal will raid the Internet, shorten the number of rounds, save physical strength, and make quick decisions; but Djokovic and Murray are relatively less, and the two still habitually stick to the bottom line. That's their comfort zone.

That doesn't mean Murray won't take his chances.

Murray stepped up and entered the bottom line, but did not choose to swipe the ball. Facing a spinning ball from the middle and midfield, Murray chose to slice.

Very very surprising.

Backspin the ball and chop long.

Murray's top-down cutting directly cut the tennis ball into the deep area of ​​the bottom line and fell into the big triangle of the bottom line of Gao Wen's forehand position.

The light handling, but it can make Gao Wen's return ball very awkward——

In particular, Gao Wen's footsteps are still on the bottom line, which also means that he needs to complete the hitting processing at his feet. If the rhythm is wrong or the hitting point is wrong, he may directly hit the ball.

The difficulty is very high.

It can be seen from the shot selection of this shot that Gao Wen is speeding up and Murray is slowing down. Both players are trying to control the rhythm of the game.

This is a game of invisible swords and swords.

Gao Wen, stay calm in times of crisis.

His handling is delicate and ingenious. A bouncing ball at the foot is covered by the circle of the forearm, and the strength of the wrist and the movement of the rotation are linked to complete the shot.

Tennis, hit a slash, and rushed towards Murray's forehand.

The ball is not fast.

Judging from Murray's defensive ability, the threat is limited, and he just makes Murray run through the control of the landing point.

However, Murray can seize the opportunity?

not at all.

Just as Gao Wen expected, Murray was trying to slow down the pace of the game, so he didn't exert any force in his offense. He hit a forehand with a diagonal transition ball, trying to find a landing point on the sideline, further pushing Gao Wen. Wen's position is pulled to the outfield, and then forms an advantage.

Unfortunately, this shot is still a little conservative—

This is also Murray's consistent style.

With a conservative shot, the hitting point is a little bit lacking, and the spin is not enough. As a result, Gao Wen caught a rising point in the forehand position.

Gao Wen will never be soft-hearted.

Forehand, straight line ~lightnovelpub.net~ sweep!

Gao Wen's footsteps once again entered the bottom line, grabbing the rising point immediately, his forehand attack was very decisive, and he took the initiative again in a blink of an eye.

Originally, Murray took the initiative by adjusting his serving tactics, but he habitually put himself in a defensive position, which resulted in a missed opportunity, and then Gao Wen took the initiative again.

boom!

The solid and crisp batting sound continues Gao Wen's state in this round, the whole rhythm is upgraded to a higher level, and the connection between batting and batting is tight; Even took some risks, but the shot was decisive enough.

Change the line!

Tempo, speed up.

ah!

There were some exclamations in the Rod Laver Stadium. In this round, Gao Wen's rhythm was too fast, and it seemed effortless. The rhythm is also disrupted.

Then it can be seen that Murray fell into a passive defensive state again, but it was Murray's most accustomed game mode.
