A small accident, facing a half-court attack that he was determined to win, Kerbert's haste and carelessness directly hit the tennis ball into the stands, and Gawain recovered a point.
But the audience didn't think much about it, because at the beginning of the game, there was no round of ball duel between the two sides, and their attention was quickly focused on the next point of the game.
This time, Kerbert made a change in his serve, choosing the inside corner in the second area and aiming at Gawain's backhand.
With a serve speed of 185 kilometers per hour, it can be seen that Kerbert's serving condition was indeed good today, but Kerbert still did not pursue tricky angles, and only suppressed the serve through the speed and power of flat hitting.
Then...Gaowen successfully returned the serve.
Due to the rush of time, Gawain was unable to swing the racket completely, and he simply gave up on hitting the ball. Instead, he lightly blocked the ball with a backhand with both hands, and knocked the tennis ball back lightly with a slightly cutting style of hitting the ball -
—
Moreover, there is no borrowed force, and the distance from the baseline is more than two meters, which directly results in the return line being extended by more than two meters. The entire return appears soft and the landing point is much shallower.
Chance!
Facing the opportunity again, Kerbert was highly focused. He had already set up the forehand forehand, and adjusted his steps much more carefully than before. He lowered his center of gravity, kicked off the ground, twisted his waist, swung the racket, and his forehand was ready.
It hit a diagonal line like a cannonball, opened a wider angle, and rushed towards Gawain's left sideline.
Because Gawain's return didn't spin enough this time, the return was still suppressed by the force of the serve, so there was no crisis in Kerbert's shot and he hit a solid backslash.
Whoosh!
The speed was so fast! The tennis ball blasted past like a cannonball!
However, as soon as Kerbert finished hitting the ball, he realized something was wrong——
Why does Gao Wen wait on his return line?
The answer is simple:
Because Kerbert was concentrating on hitting the ball and did not hide the trajectory of his swing at all. It was obvious at a glance that it was a diagonal hit. Gawain started to move laterally early and continued to approach his left hand in small steps.
Although Kerbert's hitting was fast and heavy, Gao Wen still got stuck in position in advance, and started the backhand early with both hands. His swing was very full and complete, and solid power was transmitted all the way from the soles of his feet. Through the turning movements, all
It was attached to the racket and hit him head on.
boom!
At the moment when the shot was released, Gao Wen's entire body pressed forward, following the backhand movement of both hands, and then gently moved his wrist outward. He did not use his own initiative to exert force, but relied on Kerbert to hit the ball.
All the strength and attention are focused on the control of the wrist. With one push, the tennis ball has been sent back.
The swinging movements are relaxed and freehand, as natural and unrestrained as walking in a garden.
boom!
The tennis ball flying over at full speed had already changed from a diagonal line to a straight line, rushing towards Kerbert's forehand gap, hunting in the wind.
Kerbert, who had just finished swinging the racket, realized the danger immediately, but his defensive awareness was obviously weak. He started a beat slower, and he already watched the tennis ball enter his court and form the winning point.
"pretty!"
Sofar could not help but applaud and expressed his admiration.
"Gawain's iconic two-handed backhand accurately caught Kerbert's return line, switching from defense to offense in one shot, and scored the winning point."
"This season, Gao Wen has demonstrated the power of his backhand straight line more than once. Even when confronting any player's violent forehand, he is not inferior. He also has a strong ability to change lines. His seemingly insignificant movements can always steal the ball.
A rhythm that keeps the opponent in place."
"Today is no exception."
"The game has just begun, and Gawain's two-handed backhand has already brought the first winning point."
"In terms of handling this point, Kerbert was still a little sloppy. He thought that his batting could kill his opponent in just one shot. He didn't think enough about the batting line and landing angle. He just hit the ball with all his strength.
There’s plenty of power and speed.”
"However, facing an opponent like Gawain, just one shot is not enough, and power alone is not enough. Kerbert needs to think about hitting the ball."
Huchihuchi.
Kebert's chest was rising and falling rapidly, and a big question mark slowly appeared on his forehead:
what happened?
Obviously, thinking is not Kerbert's strong point. It's not that he is not smart enough, but that in the NCAA arena, his strength and speed have already established enough advantages. He can often solve problems in the first three shots. His physical talent
His strong suppression makes his game very simple.
Usually, if you lose, it's either because you didn't perform well, or the opponent's strength can compete with you. It's rare to encounter players like Gawain. Gradually, Kerbert has become accustomed to this.
It is naturally difficult to break out of one's own limitations.
Why did Gawain appear in the backhand position early? Luck, it should just be luck.
Why was Gawain able to straighten his backhand? It must be that his strength was not increased enough, which was why he was not suppressed.
Yes, it should be so.
Kebert found the answer, his high heart relaxed a little, and he couldn't help but glance at Gawain again.
I originally thought that Gawain would clench his fists in celebration, show off his power, and be passionate, but... none of it happened.
Gawain just lowered his head and walked to the other side of the court, preparing for the next point. His expression was very relaxed, as if the winning point just now was ordinary and there was nothing to celebrate, and he didn't even bother to look at Kerbert.
"……Grass."
Kebert felt that he had been humiliated, and finally couldn't hold it back. He cursed secretly, glared at Gawain fiercely, and then turned around and walked back to the bottom line.
But he felt unwilling to do so, and looked back at Gawain again, but there was still no reaction, which made Kebert's anger boil.
"Grass!"
Gawain really didn't have time to pay attention to Kerbert's thoughts. The first three games were all time for him to find out. No matter whether he scored or lost points, he needed to calm down and think carefully about what happened in the round just now.
What, and what adjustments should be made next?
He is very busy.
"30:30".
Standing at the bottom line, Gao Wen decided to change his catching strategy again. Rather than gaining or losing points, he wanted to test Kerbert's response method. Just like the last game against Libitis, he
It is necessary to have a deep understanding of the opponent and then develop a comprehensive tactical layout.
move.
move.
When preparing to receive the serve, Gao Wen quietly moved his steps forward, and at the same time moved slightly to his left side, as if preparing to cover his backhand position. The small-scale adjustment was not obvious, but it did not hide it -
In fact, the main purpose is to let Kerbert see it and interfere with his serve.
boom!
Sure enough, Kerbert saw it and made an outside angle.
trap!
Gawain's knees jumped lightly like springs, and he immediately moved towards his forehand position. The small details of the movements just now were all smoke bombs. From the beginning, he was not prepared to predict Kerbert's serve.
Instead, prepare to gamble on one side and attack towards the forehand position in advance.
Then, Kerbert took the trick and sent the ball straight to Gawain's front hand.
