With all his strength, Gawain was ready to go. After completing the active attack with his forehand, Gawain still did not relax. He moved laterally towards his left side in small steps, preventing Sarkisian from completing the save, so that he could connect immediately.
The next attack——
Mainly because of the habit that Salamento forced him to develop, he always needs to prepare one more shot, otherwise, the opponent may always reverse the situation.
It wasn't until the referee reported the score that Gao Wen stopped running and finally made a fist to celebrate.
But the celebration was very short-lived.
Then, Gawain looked towards the hitting line and landing point——
This is another batting tactical combination, pressing in front and hanging behind.
To put it simply, it is to use some very shallow returns to move Sarkisian to the frontcourt, and then actively lob the ball himself, forming a different kind of suppression. As a result, Sarkisian is unable to grab the rising point and is forced to perform his least necessary actions.
If you are good at taking the initiative to attack, the quality of your batting will plummet.
Of course, if this happens every time, it will definitely be dangerous, because if Sarkisian enters the first half, he will be more comfortable and will be very aggressive in grabbing the ascending point. This also means that Gawain must be more prepared:
Or use backspin to force Sarkisian to completely squat down to hit the ball, destroying the center of gravity.
Or use a combination of long and short balls to mobilize Sarkeeson on the vertical axis and disrupt his sense of direction on the court.
Overall, Sarkisian also has a certain level of defense, but compared with Salamento, it is still a whole level behind, especially the quality of defensive returns, which means containing the opponent's offense through defense.
On the one hand, Sarkisian obviously lacks stamina and means.
Great, another tactical combination has proven to be effective.
Across the court, Sarkisian and Gawain's eyes briefly collided. Such an opening cannot be said to be unexpected, but it cannot be said to be natural.
Sarkisian was not frustrated. Even if he was broken first, his confidence never wavered. Winning three games in a row gave him the confidence to face any difficult situation.
Sarkeeson believes that the main reason is that he warmed up slowly and failed to perform well. The quality of several returns was lower than expected and his reaction speed was not timely enough. This caused him to fall into passivity. As long as he completed his warm-up and his hand returned to its best, the situation would be smooth.
It can be reversed.
In other words, he believes that it is not how good Gawain is, but that he is not good enough.
When the venue was changed, Gawain could feel Sarkisian's calmness and calmness, without too many mental fluctuations. However, Gawain did not pay too much attention to Sarkisian. He still focused on himself and controlled the game by himself.
In the first game, I gained a lot.
The break of serve was very important because it allowed Gao Wen to take the lead in the first set, but compared to the break of serve, Gao Wen was more satisfied with his attempt at the tactical level.
After a round of fighting, we can initially see Sarkeeson’s state and feel——
It is undeniable that Sarkisian is indeed in good shape now, which is mainly reflected in his reaction speed and timing of hitting the ball. He can find the right timing with just one shot without hesitation or hesitation. This is for a point-grabbing player.
, is undoubtedly the best manifestation of the hot status.
This also means that a fast-playing tactic is not appropriate because Sarkisian wants the game to be fast-paced.
But at the same time, it is not appropriate to deliberately slow down the pace of the game. Sarkisian has a hot touch and can force shots like Webber, and the hitting effect is also very good. In this way, he can forcibly increase the pace of the game, and Gawain will be trapped in a defensive dilemma.
.
Therefore, it is best to be in a state of change and mobilization all the time.
In the second game, Gao Wen's serve game.
The rhythm of the game is slightly different.
From Gawain's perspective, he has the offensive initiative.
From Sarkeeson's perspective, he can let the offense go.
It was clear that neither player had any intention of backing down.
boom!
For the first serve, Gawain chose the outside corner——
Deja vu?
Sarkisson's first serve was also from the outside corner, but Gawain guessed it. At this time, Sarkisson was not too surprised by Gawain's serve.
However, accurate prediction does not mean successful hitting.
High and spinning, Gao Wen captured the characteristic that the serve must enter the service area, which also means that super top spin can make the tennis ball bounce high after landing; but for Sakison, he is not bold enough yet.
After receiving a serve, he will directly enter the bottom line to grab the rising point.
So, even though Sarkisian guessed the direction correctly, when the tennis ball flew over, it had already passed high over his shoulders.
With a height of 191 centimeters, the hitting point is still over the shoulder. From such details, it can be seen how much spin Gawain has added, and he is obviously prepared.
Sarkisian was unable to grab the point, and it was still above his shoulders. He hit the shot with an extremely awkward posture. He could not complete the entire swing. He used the strength of his upper body to twist it, and then the tennis ball flew away.
past.
It's also a diagonal line, and it's also a deep pressing area, but the quality of Sarkisian's return is obviously not comparable to Gawain's first return of serve.
Kick the ground.
move.
Adjustment.
The forehand took the shot calmly, because there was plenty of time, and there was even time to glance at the direction of Sarkeeson's movement——
Sarkisian was obviously prepared to defend his entire backhand gap, because the entire field had been forced to give way, so after he completed the ball, he immediately moved laterally to the left.
So, the moment Gawain took action, he used a little more strength on his wrist and hit a slash:
Return the ball.
Repeat the line, aim at the vacated right position behind Sarkisian, and hit it there. Instead of pursuing an angle, he uses speed to create pressure. The tennis ball has swept past Sarkisian like a hurricane.
Sarkisian, who was sprinting towards the left with all his strength, had no time to stop and turn suddenly. He just glanced at the flight path of the tennis ball with his peripheral vision.
The same tactical routine, different results, in the final analysis is because the two sides launching the offense and handling the defense are different.
To put it simply, Sarkisian needs to grab points, the rhythm must be improved, and the room for error is relatively small, but Gawain does not need it. He can create suppression through changes in serve, using speed, spin, placement, etc., and then use his own
In the connection of the second beat, control your own offensive rhythm.
In addition, just like this point, the unexpected arrangement and combination of batting lines is also Gawain's advantage.
"15:0".
However, Sarkisian was also going all out. In the second point, he suppressed Gawain's offensive connection by pressing the return ball, thus forming a confrontation.
Once, once.
Once, once.
In the blink of an eye, he had already hit seven times, and Gao Wen was unable to directly score in the first three shots.
Then Sarkeeson seized the opportunity when Gawain's diagonal return ball fell into his prediction, took a big step forward, and successfully grabbed the rising point of the ball. He gently twisted and raised his backhand with both hands, which was very impressive.
Delicate and very light handling, without exerting force, the speed is already increased through rhythm.
Whoosh!
The tennis ball drew a naughty trajectory and bounced back along the diagonal line, but the entire speed increased by a notch, and the reaction time was immediately compressed.
Gao Wen, who was about to return to defend the space on the right, was caught off guard and immediately fell into a passive position. He hurriedly made a block with his backhand, but there was no time to initiate the shot, so there was no control at all.
Even the route was just a subconscious conservative return, and the tennis ball had already flown past, repeating the route and returning to Sarkisian's backhand position.
