Match point

Chapter 1261
What... what's going on?

There is Sock in front, and the ball is served close to the outside corner.

Although he chose the outer corner to try to suppress Gao Wen's forehand, the angle did not tear apart, but relied on speed and strength to form the suppression.

On the strategic level, it is still the same tactical routine that runs through the entire field. They didn't even try to suppress Gao Wen's backhand, and still aimed at the forehand to attack.

The only adjustment is to open up the angle a little bit, trying to create an awkward position and restrict Gao Wen's return of the ball——

That is to say, Gao Wen moves to his right side, if his footsteps are too small, he may need to reach the ball; if his footsteps are too large, he may be squeezed by his swing.

The principle is that the angle of the line is slightly torn but not completely torn. Between the lightning and the flint, the judgment of the three-dimensional space position by the receiving side is often not accurate enough, and it is prone to slight deviations, which will eventually lead to the offset of the hitting point and affect the position of the ball. The quality of the shot may even lead to a direct off the bat.

Sock doesn't aim at the ace or serve straight. From the beginning, this is a tactical routine that destroys the quality of the return. The next step should be Pospisil's net volley, which should be resolved within three axes as much as possible. fighting.

There is Gao Wen behind him, who quickly swings his forehand and changes the line.

In fact, Gao Wen was already mentally prepared. From the layout stage, he had already made adjustments according to the characteristics of the clay to ensure that his tactics would work.

Assuming that Sock boldly splits the angle, or changes the serving routine, and uses rotation to increase the height of the landing bounce, this can break the game and disrupt Gao Wen's conception and layout.

But Sock didn't.

Therefore, even small local adjustments are still within Gawain's calculation range——

Gao Wen, the stance didn't change too much, it was just half a step back, but the movement of the shot was obviously a bit late, that is, the shooting time was delayed.

It has been emphasized more than once before that the hitting point of tennis is very important, because the contact position between the tennis ball and the racket is different at different hitting points, and the hitting movements of the wrist and arm also need to be adjusted accordingly, otherwise you will not be able to hit the ball. Desserts, if not off the racket, hit the ball far and wide.

However, active and passive are two different things.

In professional tennis, the Williams sisters are famous for their backhand, because none of them were trained in a formal professional tennis school, and they completely relied on their father, Richard-Williams (Richard-Williams), an amateur. Trained by myself.

The most direct technical action is that Williams' backhand is an open stance, and the entire hitting point is obviously late, and it is often necessary to wait for the tennis ball to reach the shoulder-level position before it can be shot; however, the backhand of a regular tennis school It must be a closed stance, and the left leg needs to take half a step forward to complete the "close the door", because an open stance is equivalent to missing the hitting point, which is against the theory of hitting.

however!
The Williams sisters rely on strong strength to cover up shortcomings and shortcomings. Even if the hitting point is later, they can still complete the standard shot.

Moreover, one of the advantages of an open stance is that the hitting line is also completely open.

Closed stances are often suitable for hitting diagonal lines. If you try to hit a straight line, the speed of the racket head needs to be fully increased, otherwise you will not be able to change the line successfully, but open stances do not need to maintain a uniform head speed. Then rely on strength to complete the control, straight and slash as you like.

Because of this, the two-handed backhand of the Williams sisters has been a unique technique in professional tennis for a long, long time. They completely ignore the time difference and can hit straight or diagonal lines at any time, so that The opponent has no way of judging, and it is easy to fall into a passive position.

Of course, technology is technology, real technology, or the unique strength advantage of the Williams sisters.

Here, the emphasis is on the timing of hitting the ball——

Strictly speaking, the point of hitting the ball is earlier or later. Strictly speaking, it doesn't matter. You only need to adjust your hitting technique to complete the hitting.

Usually, the reason why the importance of the hitting point is always emphasized is because the hitting technique and hitting habits are relatively fixed, so players often need to find their most comfortable hitting point. Some people like Nishikori to grab the hitting point , There are also people who control the hitting point like Fognini.

At this time, Gao Wen had planned——

Delayed shot.

Deliberately delay the hitting point, and then use the characteristics of clay to pull out a strong topspin, and complete the line change through the control of the speed of the racket head and the friction of strong rotation.

At the same time, Gao Wen's return line was not aimed at the dead corner of a fighting straight line, but adjusted to a straight line aimed at Bospisir's position.

One come, one go.

Calculate, counter.

Both Sock and Gawain's brains were running at high speed, but this time, Gawain's calculation speed suppressed Sock, and then——

Pospisil was in a hurry.

First, Gao Wen delayed his shot, so that Bospisil activated his body at the first time, but found that there was a dislocation, and the center of gravity visibly shook.

Later, Gao Wen chased him in a straight line, but Pospisil's center of gravity had not been adjusted. Although he did not lose his position, his position was not stable, and his racket visibly shook.

Ugh!

Pospisil had no time to stretch his body, and the tennis ball had already hit him head-on.

subconsciously--

Intercepted a beat.

Under the flustered situation, Bospihir didn't stand firm at all, but his upper body subconsciously exerted force and pushed it out.

Slash!

Bump!

However, the sheep are in the mouth of the tiger!

Before the batting action was completed, Pospisil had already seen Dimitrov leaping towards him like a tiger.

what……

what happened?

In that situation, it was simply to predict Pospisil's shot selection in advance, and he had already taken the initiative to attack halfway through the shot.

Pospithil was shocked.

Dimitrov's early prediction and high concentration completely seized the opportunity, culled a forehand, and completed the interception on the rising point of the tennis ball.

boom!
The tennis ball hit Pospihir again in the blink of an eye, like a missile.

Pospisil directly held his breath.

At the critical moment, Pospisil also showed his ability to rank fifth in the doubles world. Although the handling before the net is not as delicate as that of Sock, the speed of response to the conditions before the net is still very quick, and he is experienced in preparing for predictions. , the brain didn't turn at all, it was all based on instinct——

One stretch, one block.

With stumbling steps and an unbalanced center of gravity, Pospisil hurriedly and embarrassingly intercepted Dimitrov's culling at his feet accurately.

fast!
Precision!

Like the Bryan brothers, typical doubles players, because they have been immersed in hand-to-hand combat in front of the net for a long time, the quick response and second start between the lightning and flint are very good. They are not afraid of such a shot at all, relying on instinct and experience. Can form a tug-of-war against.

The whole audience exclaimed.

When Dimitrov had already fully seized the opportunity, Pospisil successfully intercepted and returned the tennis ball back to life.

However, the quality of the return is... hard to describe.

It is tall and floating, has no strength and no rotation, it is simply a "vegetable ball".
