Chapter 234 Victory Weapon
In the first official game of the new season, it was quite a thrilling victory for An Sheng, including himself, who had lingering fears. However, he was still very firm about the execution of tactics.

This point was also recognized by Coach Fortes.

Although Ansheng won this game, it once again became the reason for many media to criticize Ansheng.

They believed that the process of this game proved their theory. After An Sheng lost his aggressiveness, his strength and game state began to decline significantly.

Even, some irresponsible media have already made swearing remarks, believing that the current ATP ranking is already the pinnacle of Anson's career, and he will not be able to make breakthroughs in the future, but will only slowly sink.

An Sheng was very speechless about this, but he still didn't want to pay attention to them.

His idea is that at this time, the more you talk to the other party, the more energetic the other party will be, so just leave them alone and just pretend they don't exist.

In the next two rounds of competition, An Sheng also won, but the process was still very thrilling.

It always makes people feel that his strength is obviously stronger than the opponent, and as long as he plays a little more safely, he can win the game smoothly, but he always plays very recklessly, making frequent unforced errors, This also gave away his great situation in vain.

In addition, it was also because he made too many mistakes that his game was much less enjoyable than before. This was criticized by many viewers.

Therefore, in order to cater to the audience and readers, the media naturally have to do another wave of things.

But in fact, Ansheng himself was very satisfied with these two games, because he could clearly feel his progress from them.

First of all, he can basically be clear now that his hard power has already exceeded 69 points and is moving towards the 70th stage.

Secondly, after experiencing the game, his understanding of the current tactics has improved a lot.

At the same time, his technical stability is slowly improving. Although the degree of improvement is not particularly obvious so far, he is indeed moving in the right direction.

And when the game came to the final, An Sheng was more excited than before, because his opponent was his friend, Zhang Zhizheng.

Not only An Sheng, Zhang Zhizheng is also very excited to meet him in the final.

You know, Zhang Zhizheng has regarded An Sheng as his pursuit target since a long time ago. Now, he is finally able to meet An Sheng in the official competition. There is no doubt that his fighting spirit must be extremely strong.

As for An Sheng, the reason why he is so excited is, to a large extent, that he is actually happy for Zhang Zhizheng. Only a small part is because he feels that, as the "big brother", he cannot lose to his "little brother". "Are.

As soon as the game started, Zhang Zhizheng played a strong climax.

He first hit 4 goals in a row and easily secured his serve. Then in Ansheng's serve game, he relied on his tenacious fighting spirit to force Ansheng to make several mistakes. Then he got the break point and seized the serve. Given the opportunity, complete the break!
In this way, it can be said that An Sheng was given a blow to the head.

What's even more surprising is that in the subsequent games, Zhang Zhizheng showed no intention of relaxing at all. He always maintained a state of high excitement and extremely high fighting spirit.

It can be seen from this that in the face of An Sheng, Zhang Zhizheng's desire to win is so strong.

What's more, this is also an opportunity for Zhang Zhi to compete for his first professional championship. Of course, he will try his best to fight for it.

Combining the two factors, it is not difficult to understand that Zhang Zhizheng can perform like this.

Faced with such a situation, An Sheng was under a lot of pressure and stimulation. At the same time, this also to a large extent stimulated An Sheng's desire for victory in the game. He no longer just wanted to verify his skills and tactics. But really put into the game.

But his problems still exist, and his technical stability cannot be changed with a single thought.

That is to say, in the game, An Sheng made a lot of mistakes, and they did not improve as his mental state improved.

An Sheng's only advantage lies in his hard power. As long as he can fully exert his strength, he is obviously stronger than Zhang Zhizheng, even if Zhang Zhizheng is in a very hot state now.

But it's useless. If the stability problem is not resolved, his strength will never be fully displayed.

Therefore, in the first set, Zhang Zhizheng firmly controlled the game situation, and even in the sixth game, he relied on An Sheng's own mistakes again to complete a break, thus winning 6-1. With a huge point difference, they won the first set strongly.

After the start of the second set, the situation did not change.

In other words, An Sheng has now been forced into a desperate situation. If he can't respond effectively, or take out a more powerful weapon, then he will lose this game.

Fortunately, An Sheng really has a "secret weapon" in his hand, which has not yet been revealed, and that is his one-handed backhand technique.

In fact, he has used this technology in the game before, but the effect is not very good, not only failed to bring him points, but increased his mistakes.

This made An Sheng think that his one-handed backhand technique was not yet mature enough, which also made him a little unconfident, so he involuntarily reduced the number of times it was used.

As a result, in the final match between him and Zhang, he rarely used this technique. Once the opponent hit the ball to his backhand, he could only use the cutting ball to make the transition.

But now, he has reached the moment when he has to change.

The game came to the third game of the second set, with An Sheng serving.

"Oh!"

An Sheng's current serve is more rapid, but he has not fully grasped it, resulting in a low success rate of his first serve, and this time, he made a mistake again.

For the second serve, An Sheng used a side-swing serve in order to keep it safe, but compared to his first serve, the power was greatly reduced.

Sure enough, Zhang Zhizheng completed the serve return relatively easily, and consciously hit An Sheng's backhand.

Seeing this, An Sheng stared at him, feeling ruthless in his heart. After quickly moving into place, he followed the running posture and assumed a half-sideways posture.

His right foot is in front and his left foot is behind, while his right hand is holding the handle tightly, and his left hand is lightly resting on the triangular area of ​​the racket to keep the racket stable.

Immediately, facing the incoming ball, An Sheng swung the racket suddenly. At the same time, with the right leg as the axis, the body formed a clockwise rotation. When the racket was halfway through, the left hand was naturally released, and the right hand completed the follow-up swing alone.

"Bang" sound.

The racket hit the tennis ball hard, but An Sheng's swing didn't end yet, and then he pulled out a long arc, and didn't stop until his racket went around his neck and hung on his back down.

The tennis ball hit by him flew towards the opponent's half court at a very high speed, and the route was extremely abnormal, it was short and flat, and its landing point appeared directly on the sideline of the opponent's backhand. middle section.

There is no doubt that this is an extremely beautiful small slash, and it is also an unsolvable winning goal.

"Whoo~"

Seeing that the tennis ball hit the ground, rebounded, and flew out of bounds, but the linesman did not call out "OUT", An Sheng was greatly relieved, and then he showed surprise.

This ball was the first time he completed a small diagonal attack with one-handed backhand in an official game, and it was indeed worth making him happy.

But the success of just one goal is not enough to explain the problem, and Zhang Zhizheng also thinks so. He doesn't think that this will be An Sheng's usual backhand ability. Therefore, in the next ball, he will continue to target An Sheng. backhand.

As a result, An Sheng once again used the one-handed backhand technique to catch Zhang Zhizheng by surprise.

Although, this time, An Sheng did not take the risk of choosing a small diagonal line, but chose the safest backhand diagonal line. However, compared with his chipping ball, his backhand stroke is more aggressive. a lot of.

In particular, An Sheng's one-handed backhand technique is really special. The arc is very long and the force is very strong. Even if it is compared with the forehand, its power is probably almost the same.

This change greatly exceeded Zhang Zhizheng's expectations, and it also broke his previous hitting rhythm in the backhand position, resulting in a mistake in returning the ball.

In the subsequent games, the backhand fight became the key point to determine the outcome of both sides.

Although Zhang Zhizheng has seen An Sheng's strength in the backhand position, compared to his forehand position, he is still willing to compete with An Sheng in the backhand position.

This concept is derived from his understanding of An Sheng, and it has been verified in previous games, so that it is difficult for him to reverse it in a short game.

What's more, Zhang Zhizheng soon discovered that An Sheng's backhand technique, once successful, is indeed very threatening, but his error rate is still a bit high, which makes him even more determined. Fight backhand game strategy.

As for the result, it was not only Zhang Zhizheng's surprise, but An Sheng himself was also surprised.

Because, as the game progressed, An Sheng's SLR technique became more and more stable, and his improvement was extremely obvious. By the time of the third set, his backhand turnover rate was already far lower than his. forehand.

This is actually quite incredible.

As I said before, SLR technology itself has a weakness of poor stability, but now, this weakness does not appear in An Sheng, which is very abnormal.

When the game entered this time, although Zhang Zhizheng also discovered the problem, it was too late for him to make adjustments.

Furthermore, after An Sheng has a steady backhand, even if Zhang Zhizheng can adjust his game strategy, it will be difficult for him to reverse the situation of the game, because An Sheng still has a clear advantage in terms of hard power.

In this way, An Sheng finally relied on his backhand to win two sets in a row after losing one set first, turn the defeat into victory, and win the final, thereby once again winning the Anning Station ITF Hope Tournament, the first week Champion of the tournament.

And An Sheng originally thought that winning the championship would shut up those messy media, but the fact is, not only did they not shut up, but they became more restless and aggressive.
