Chapter 122 121 - Top Four Opponents - 2
"Hello, audience friends. I am an old friend of everyone, Li Si. Today we have invited Director Zhang as a guest commentator." Li Si began to say in the live TV broadcast.

"Hello, everyone." Director Zhang came over again. There is no way, there is a time difference between Bu Zelu's game and China's side. Who can tell Director Zhang to talk easily? This kind of person has already got off work, and this meeting will be at 10 in the evening. It was around [-]:[-], and Director Zhang, a good old man, could not refuse the task in the station and lead the class to participate in the commentary again.

"We are about to bring you the semi-finals of the second half of the French Open. Our player Bu Zelu will face Sweden's Soderling. Zelu believes that the audience is already very familiar with it. Then Director Zhang will introduce it to us." Let's play Soderling." Li Si didn't make it difficult for Zhang to guide, but he had already collected Soderling's information.

At this moment, Director Zhang also took the Soderling materials collected on the stage and started to follow the instructions, but after reading for a while, he started to express himself freely again.

"...Actually, audiences, don't think that Soderling is very calm now, but in fact Soderling is very similar to Bu Zelu, and they are both very individual players!" Director Zhang said.

"How do you say? Soderling looks very mature and stable!" Li Siye has cooperated with Director Zhang many times, and everyone in the stage knows that Director Zhang can play freely when he talks.

"I found an anecdote here about Soderling. Let's see, although Soderling's face can be regarded as exquisite, but the violent forehand, strong serve, and a height of more than 1 meters make fans more accustomed to shouting. He is Uncle Suo." Director Zhang took advantage of the live broadcast and gave a close-up of Soderling's front and said directly, "And Soderling's character is arrogant but not artificial, and Soderling's blood and masculinity seem to have penetrated him. Flesh and flesh. The grumpy Soderling is a bit too cold and straightforward, but this is also the charm of Soderling. So in men's tennis that lacks individuality, Soderling is a rare animal."

"Yes, I really understand what I said. It's like Zelu's luck is always bad, and he never hits the side. This time, Soderling still gave up the ball. The audience who watched Zelu's game may I already know it, but I still want to say it again. In tennis, after guessing the side, generally speaking, the ball will be given to the player who is lower in the ATP ranking. Let the rest area on the left be given to taller players," Li Si said again to the audience in front of the TV.

"This is why Soderling is so popular, because everyone knows what will happen to Zelu once he gets the right to serve, but Soderling still does it so honestly." Director Zhang also continued.

"Okay, let's see, player Bu Zelu is about to serve..." Li Si hurriedly reminded Director Zhang that the game was about to start, and he couldn't continue playing.

Anyway, there is plenty of time for Bu Zelu's match, because everyone has guessed that this match will still be a very long and boring match.

"Player Bu Zelu has a standard left-handed serve with a backspin and an external spin. Is he going to start a bottom-line pull tactic?" Li Si said again after seeing the serve.

Bu Zelu couldn't hear the comments in front of the TV, but he confirmed the other party's statement. Yes, he started to draw the bottom line again.

How strong a person is, after having never met the opponent, the match before the match is the most important basis.

In fact, there is another unscientific and unfounded statement, that is, how many rounds can be played in one minute of bottom line matchmaking.

So far, the order that can match Bu Zelu is that Djokovic is the most stable, followed by Nadal, and the third is today's Soderling.This is what surprised Bu Zelu.

Of course, some people may ask where the big star Federer is, and he will be further behind. In the warm-up before the game, Federer will not take the forehand and backhand back and forth with Bu Zelu, but various attacking postures.

After all, it is a warm-up match before the competition, not a practice match.

When Soderling was warming up before the game today, the two of them slammed forehand and backhand crazily. Although there was no accurate calculation, the two played 1 rounds of slamming within 22 minute.

In other words, after playing 44 shots, there was a mistake, or Bu Zelu made a mistake, and neither of them made a chip in the process.

Anyone who has played tennis knows that in addition to the control over the racket, the forehand and backhand strokes are not only about physical strength.

That's right, physical strength.

Continuous pumping will wear out the arms very quickly.

That's why Bu Zelu was surprised. He remembered that when he and Djokovic were in the club, they once played an exhibition match that was not a practice match. The two of them hit each other on the baseline for 25 rounds.

The forehand and backhand strokes with speed and strength are quite heavy. If you want to compare it to a metaphor, it is almost like a racket has to fly away a 330ml unopened Coke.

Not only to hit the drink bottle to the opponent's half, but also to hit 22 shots continuously. What kind of stability and efficiency is this?
This is the basic strength of the top ranks of professional tennis players.

Soderling did it, even stronger than Hewitt and Bu Zelu, who were mainly based on bottom-line defense at the beginning, in terms of the strength of the match before the game, second only to Nadal.

'No wonder this guy is currently ranked fifth in the world. He should be able to surpass Murray after this game. After all, Muller was eliminated in the quarterfinals. Bu Zelu looked at the ball from the bottom corner and sighed with excitement, unable to catch up.

15:0
Bu Zelu conceded a goal first. If he didn't use small steps to increase his movement at the beginning of the game, Bu Zelu would be relatively poor in baseline mobility, not his full state.

30:0
Today's Baze still used the old tactics, which is a respect for Soderling. There is no way, he must save his strength until the third set, or even the fourth set, and the fifth set.

30:15
Bu Zelu had to grab one point back, after all, he had been abused with the super master in the fantasy space for more than half a year, so he still had a chance to score.

30:30
tie the score.

40:30
Soderling's tactic is very simple, that is, to use his strength at the beginning to score quickly, and the most important thing to play is to break his serve.

45:30
Bu Zelu's serve was broken. To use a more euphemistic way of saying it, his style of play is slow, getting stronger as he gets closer to the end of the game.

1:0
Soderling took the lead in breaking serve, and at the same time the offensive and defensive transition came to his serve.

Bu Zelu's cough today was not as severe as the day before yesterday, but he basically held his breath after playing every time because of the violent running, trying to resist the movement that accompanied the cough.

That's why he covered his mouth and coughed for a while at the end of each ball, and when the game was over, he quickly ran to the bench and applied an ice pack to his cheeks while sipping a sports drink with honey in it.

Well, it must be weird, but it's good for the throat.

'Want more running? Bu Zelu hesitated after drinking water, wiping off his sweat, and throwing down the ice pack.

If you use small steps at the beginning, it will be a great physical burden on him, and it’s not true that you can’t run to death. After fighting Nadal and Djokovic, he was not as tired as a dog, and was even pulled back by an ambulance. .

'Let's finish the first set first and see how this guy's physical strength is. "Bu Zelu returned to the game, let alone a small point, even if the total score is 1:0 behind, it doesn't matter.

After all, they have never played against each other, and it is the semi-finals, so it’s better to be safe, don’t care about the score, you hit yours, I hit mine, and if there is a chance to prolong the game, increase the number of moves.

"ace15:0"

'Um, why don't you be so cruel? Ace ball consumes a lot of energy. You want to play ace ball with me? Bu Zelu scratched his forehead, there was really nothing he could do about this kind of ball.

On the second ball, Soderling also returned to the official serve, not playing any tricks, but the same Soderling used everyone's tricks to deal with Bu Zelu.

Serve the ball to the net and play on-court skills, so that the distance to return the tennis ball to the half-court is shorter and the speed of the ball is faster. Through the transfer of three or two shots, you can draw in the opposite direction, or even cut the ball in front of the net to give way to Bize It was too late to save the ball.

30:0
Soderling's tactics were implemented very resolutely, and it would be nonsense to say that professional players these days don't study footwork.

40:0
The pace of the Masters is where cowardice is shown. The unknown players can't even beat the pace, let alone the top professional players.

40:15
The combat power in tennis is a curve. In addition to taking the initiative to score, the opponent's mistakes are also very convenient ways to score.

45:15
Soderling knew his shame and was brave, and he made no mistakes, and successfully won his serve.

2:0
After switching offense and defense, it was Bu Zelu's serve again. The most important thing in a set was his own serve. Bu Zelu had already lost a game. Unable to keep his serve, his first set was all about Can be met.

2:1
Bu Zelu played fairly steadily. Although he did not drag into the long game, he still won his serve.

3:1
There's not much to say about Soderling. If he can't quickly establish an advantage in the early stage, his end will be inevitable.

3:2
Bu Zelu was very helpless, Soderling did not fight the bottom line with him, and used a risky way to fight his serve. It can be said that this is a bonus point.

4:2
4:3
5:3
5:4
6:4
In the whole game, Bu Zelu lost only one serve, and did not break the opponent. This is the score that everyone can meet.

The total score is 1:0, Soderling takes the lead temporarily.

Does Soderling have an advantage?Of course, the total score is the most obvious advantage, but all tennis players understand that when playing with Bu Zelu, the score is not important, but the time and everyone's running are important.

As for Bu Zelu, the audience is used to him being knocked out in embarrassment in the first game, and whether he can win the game will always depend on the second set.
