"In the opening stage, both sides are still adapting to each other. Obviously Kerbert's strength brings enough impact. He scored directly with an ace and a serve. There is no round ball yet."
Amid the roaring roar of the audience, Sofar's commentary was still accompanying the espn audience in front of the TV. He could clearly feel that the atmosphere of this game was different, and the sparks of the needle had spread.
.
"However, this season, Gao Wen's reception success rate is the highest in the United States, at 58.6%. He is also considered to be one of the most stable players in the NCAA at present."
"On the one hand, he has a very good feel for the ball, and his judgment of spin, power, and landing point is very good; on the other hand, his wrist is very soft, and he wraps the tennis ball very lightly and fully, plus he has an excellent feel.
, often able to return the tennis ball to the court.”
"So, we are still testing in the opening stage, and we need to continue to pay attention to the game."
But Kerbert obviously didn't care about Sofal's point of view. He clenched his fist and let out a lion's roar again, as if to show off the strength of his arm muscles, severely suppressing Gawain's aura, and there was a hint of contempt deep in his eyes.
Declare your domineering power again.
This should be the first player among all Gao Wen's opponents this season to cleverly start a confrontation of momentum. The battle for momentum started from the first point.
However, will this work for Gawain?
Gawain watched his return ball fly out of the baseline, not paying attention to Kerbert's performance at all, as if it was a circus that was not worthy of attention; instead, he felt the force of his wrist, and then swung again
Swing the racket and find the appropriate swing trajectory——
Against players who meet for the first time, everything is unfamiliar. They all need to understand and debug, just like computer analysis. They first need to be familiar with it before they can start analysis.
Gawain, we are collecting data now.
After a brief confrontation of momentum, the two players returned to their positions and prepared for the next point of the showdown.
In the third point, Kerbert chose Gawain's forehand for the second consecutive time and sent an outside corner.
Kerbert's judgment can be seen from the details. Everyone knows that Gawain's forehand is relatively unstable, and there is obviously a better chance of breaking through from the forehand.
Kerbert did not deliberately break the angle, but just chose an outside corner in a regular manner. He relied more on strength and speed to suppress Gawain's forehand, destroy the stability of Gawain's forehand, and then establish an advantage in the serving session.
boom!
The power was very solid, and it once again hit a speed of 188 kilometers per hour.
tread!
Gao Wen's receiving position was still more than two meters away. He took a small step towards his right side and swung the racket with his right hand early to get ready. However, because Kerbert's ball speed was very fast, Gao Wen's swing was compressed.
There was no room for the shooting action, and there was no time to complete the entire force movement, so when sending the shot, Gao Wen used a lever.
state.
The tennis ball hit the racket, and just between the sparks of brief contact, Gawain's wrist turned slightly upwards, making full use of the power of Kerbert's serve, leveraging the force of the ball and creating a strong topspin at the same time.
Increase insurance to ensure that tennis balls can enter the court——
This is to make subtle adjustments based on the situation of the previous point. He is still testing to see how he can complete the return, and then see how he can improve the quality of the return.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball drew a high parabola, leaping into the sunlight like a rainbow, and then quickly fell towards Kerbert's position.
Central location.
It can be seen from the landing point that Gao Wen's control is still lacking. The angle and depth have not been adjusted yet, and it looks very rough and mediocre. Therefore, the return ball falls in the area between the service line and the baseline, and there is no depth vertically.
, there is no horizontal angle, the central position is neither deep nor shallow, and it is a bit ambiguous.
But after all, this time the return serve did not go out of bounds and entered the court.
However, the next shot was very passive, because for Kerbert, it was a half-court offensive opportunity ball.
Tap tap tap.
Kerbert stepped up quickly, got within the baseline, and was ready to kill him with a forehand shot. The speed of the entire step and the power of the swing were very full.
However, the tennis ball fell a little faster than expected, and Kerbert's swing also showed some errors. If Kerbert made a slight temporary adjustment, there would still be no problem. He could use his strength to forcefully suppress the tennis ball.
, complete the shot.
However, the moment the racket touched the tennis ball, the strong rotation was completely beyond Kerbert's expectation. The tennis ball hit the string violently, causing strong friction and force, so that the racket began to shake slightly.
Damn it!
Kerbert was very anxious to score points, very anxious to further establish his advantage, very anxious to further suppress his opponent. The whole shooting movement seemed a little anxious, and the power was released without reservation. As a result, during the strong rotation, the angle of the racket surface became
It seems too flat and direct.
bass.
Abruptly, Kerbert turned the tennis ball into a baseball, and a mustard-yellow light flew directly to the audience stands.
"Hah!"
The audience at the scene all exclaimed. Kerbert's chance ball, which had an absolute advantage, actually flew away like this. Everyone couldn't believe their eyes. Then there was a rustling commotion, and
The spectators who were snatching tennis balls were even more noisy.
Kerbert looked at his racket in disbelief, without thinking: Why did he miss it?
Raising his head, Kerbert glanced at Gawain on the other side of the court, only to find that Gawain was not paying attention to him at all. Instead, he walked straight to the other side of the court, preparing for the next point, as if the point just now was not worthy of attention at all.
Same.
Inexplicably, Kerbert ignited an unknown fire again, glared at Gawain fiercely, then turned around and walked back to the bottom line.
For Gawain, this point is really not worthy of attention, because such mistakes are random, and you cannot expect your opponent to make mistakes every time.
However, this mistake was not fruitless. Gawain noticed that Kerbert was very, very eager to show off his momentum at the beginning. The whole shot seemed a bit hasty and eager, and his observation and prediction of details were lacking.
Ignored——
Spin is the most magical part of tennis and table tennis. Anyone who ignores spin will suffer.
Maybe, he can take advantage of it.
In fact, it is very difficult to face powerful players like Kerbert, Domyan, and Thompson, because the suppression of strength and speed really makes it impossible to use your hands and feet. This is the suppression of absolute strength.
It's easier said than expected, because their ball path is relatively rough, and the lack of details often reduces the quality of their returns, and movement is not their strong point. As long as you are patient enough, let them move and tear apart.
The difficulty of loopholes is actually easier than playing against players with styles like Geelong and Salamento.
Gawain ignored Kerbert because his brain was spinning at a high speed. Could his next point be more bold?
