Match point

Chapter 99
puff.

puff.

Gao Wen could clearly hear the sound of his heart beating against his chest, which was conveyed to the depths of his mind one after another, and his troubled thoughts settled down.

Facing the break point, Gao Wen not only didn't get nervous, but calmed down, completely calmed down.

He also realized that he was too hasty, eager to win the game in one go, but haste made waste, and instead made a mistake.

No opponent will give up victory. If you want to win, you must fight for it yourself-this is the lesson of today's game.

Especially in front of Saramento.The game was consistent throughout the game. No matter what the situation was, he ran all over the field conscientiously and tried his best to face every point. This spirit and perseverance are also what Gao Wen needs to learn:

As long as the game is not over, there is still a chance.

call……

Letting out a long breath, Gao Wen's mind gradually cleared up, he regained his sanity, and then came to the bottom line again, ready to serve.

One shot, enter the zone.

Gao Wen chose Saramento's forehand position. Although the speed and strength are good, Gao Wen's serve is still not a master, and the absolute threat is relatively limited. Saramento completed the catch immediately and returned to the In the deep center of the court, there was no chance for Gao Wen to attack.

In this game, Saramento used this return tactic very frequently, and achieved good results——

The middle area means standing in the center of the field, whether it is to the left or the right, it is actually difficult to tear a large angle, because if it is slightly larger, it may be out of bounds.

Moreover, if the player presses the deep area in the middle, it is easy for the player to run too far or not enough when the player is moving laterally from side to side. The deviation of the position will affect the hitting action, either it cannot be done completely, or it cannot be exerted when it is fully stretched. .

To put it simply, returning the ball in the middle may be conservative, and the opponent can generally catch it back, but at the same time it will also limit the opponent's attack, and then win the next shot for yourself.

Judging from the results, Saramento's change in the return route did have an effect, and he won the first break point in the second set.

This time, it is still the same.

really!

Facing the return ball from the middle, Gao Wen's footsteps were in place, but looking at Saramento who was covering the entire court on the opposite side of the net, he knew that with his current forehand power, it was still difficult to kill his opponent with one slap. On the contrary, the offense may make mistakes, so he hit the ball with a solid return.

Aim for Saramento's forehand.

Then, the round ball tug-of-war is formed again.

Forehand, backhand.

Backhand, forehand.

Gawain and Saramento are both very good defensive and running players. The back and forth square ball makes the figures of the two players all over every corner of the field, but there is a lack of a final shot. Can form a winning point or press the opponent to make mistakes.

Five beats.Ten beats.

Fifteen beats.

Seeing that the round ball is about to break through to twenty shots again, the two players are clenching their teeth, entering an anaerobic state, and devoting themselves to hitting the ball, but neither of them loses the ball. It seems that this can last for a long time Beat it down until the end of time.

The tug of war is still going on.

Gao Wen realized that he had to take a risk, even if he risked making a mistake and breaking his serve, he had to take the lead. Otherwise, the stalemate in the situation would be a morale failure for Saramento who was standing on the edge of the cliff. Fuel - because Sacramento is turning things around little by little.

He needs to do something.

Tapping.

It was another regular forehand diagonal shot, Gao Wen accurately judged the return line of Saramento, started ahead of time, and arrived at the position smoothly.

Early on, both feet have already stood firm, and you can clearly feel the force of your toes grabbing the ground. The pull of gravity is like a big tree with luxuriant branches. This is an opportunity to use your strength to shoot. Time There is plenty of room and space, and the feet and torso remain stable.

but!

Gawain quickly glanced at Saramento from the corner of his eyes, and then he could see that Saramento also maintained his mobility, still able to sprint back and forth for another [-] rounds, which also meant that even if he fully launched Hitting the ball hard, I am afraid it will not be able to form a winning point.

kick the ground!

Turn!

Swing!

Gao Wen assumed the posture of hitting the ball with all his strength, but when the racket touched the ball, the movement of swinging his arm and the angle of the racket changed. It was not a flat hit with force, but a violent friction across the entire surface of the racket. Quickly lift, twist the wrist slightly, use the detailed muscles to make delicate angle processing, and then the arms go around the top of the head in a 360-degree loop.

Chi!
The tennis ball rubbed violently, spinning at a high speed, drawing a rainbow parabola and flying past.

pedal.

Saramento had already activated it immediately, and his heart was completely tense, because he realized that Gawain might strike with all his strength, and his speed and strength were of great importance. He needed to activate it in advance to prepare——

Forehand.

Gao Wen returned to a diagonal repeating line again.

Not surprisingly, Saramento just shook his center of gravity a little, and immediately ran towards his forehand position, adjusting his body in small steps to prepare to hit the ball, but...

Ok?
what happened?

The parabola of the tennis ball was drawn, and Saramento immediately realized that the situation was not good:
This is not a forehand that hits a large diagonal, but a forehand that spins a small diagonal.

the difference?

The former, the landing point is very deep, often in the big triangle between the teeing area and the corner of the baseline, full of momentum, the side that needs to catch the ball retreats a little later, widens the distance, stands firm, and hits back with a strong hit.

The latter, the landing point is very shallow, and may even fall within the teeing area. The strength and speed are not strong, but the angle is very thin, and it is directly pulled out of the doubles line area. .

At the end of the first set, Saramento once served such a wide outside corner serve, but the result was predicted correctly by Gao Wen in advance, and he raised his hand and returned a winning point.

But, that's a tee.When practicing daily serving, players will look for such a landing point; and this is the return ball, the entire arc is so thin and light, and there are even hidden movements before hitting the ball, completely cheating Saramento's judgment.

Oops!

Although Saramento made an early prediction and the direction is correct, the position is very outrageous.

In a hurry, Saramento ran diagonally forward with all his strength, rushing to catch the ball.

The problem is that, first of all, Saramento does not have the height of Gawain, and the tennis ball rebounded beyond his height, and he cannot complete the block return; secondly, Saramento’s start is slightly slower, and the tennis ball has Started to fall, and the hit point was completely destroyed.

How to do?
Saramento, who was in place in a panic, could only barely move the tennis ball back on the track where the tennis ball was falling rapidly. There was no speed, no strength, no line, no landing point, and he was just in a state of embarrassment Barely hitting the tennis ball back onto the court without any quality to speak of.

Damn!
