Logically speaking, this game is Stakhovsky's bag. Gawain's strength obviously still failed to impact Stakhovsky.
But Gao Wen doesn't see it this way. He exerts force not only to break serve, but also to find a way to break the game. He needs to continue to experiment unswervingly to lay the foundation for subsequent games; moreover, facing Stakhovsky
For a master of this level, Gawain must go all out.
One shot, inner corner.
Gao Wen observed Stachovsky's serving movements very carefully. Each player has his own special movement habits, and these habits can often become the benchmark for prediction. For example, when throwing a ball, it is slightly higher and slightly lower.
Some are in front of the body and some are behind, and the hitting point is earlier and later. This can distinguish the difference between the first serve and the second serve, and the inside corner and the outside corner.
Only a very small number of players are able to conceal their serving movements so that their opponents cannot judge.
However, even if you understand this, you may not be able to judge accurately every time. This is mainly because the tennis court is relatively large, the distance is far enough, and there is sunlight interference. In addition, the tennis balls are so small, so it is difficult to accurately judge with the naked eye.
It is precisely because of this that Gawain needs to keep observing and observing.
The brain had just judged the "inner angle", and the body's conditioned reflex had already reacted. He rushed out directly, but the ball came faster than expected, and there was not enough room to swing, so Gao Wen used both hands to backhand the ball.
After a moment, there was no movement to trigger the shot, just a movement of the wrist to hit it back.
Cha.
Use force to fight.
Because Gao Wen gave up the action of leading the racket and just pushed the ball back, the rhythm of returning the ball was very fast, which shortened the flight time of the tennis ball in the air.
boom.
boom!
The tennis ball jumped back quickly, and although it did not widen the angle of the line, it hit Stachovsky back towards the wall.
Although the landing point was not deep, the bounce was also very low. After jumping up, it flew directly towards Stachovsky at a low altitude, with almost no rebound arc.
Stachovsky was forced to take a step back, staggered and hit the ball below his knees with his forehand, and barely managed to complete the return ball with a bounce; and in order to avoid returning the ball to the net, Stachovsky
Ji had to lift his wrist slightly to straighten the arc of the return ball.
Whoosh.
The tennis ball draws a parabola.
Tap tap tap.
You can immediately see that Gao Wen's footsteps have entered the baseline and he is rushing forward with all his strength - the shot of receiving the serve has an unexpected effect, but his concentration is highly concentrated, and he immediately realizes that his connection needs to follow up to complete the next shot.
Attack, follow your heart, and your steps will quickly follow.
Land and rebound.
Gao Wen's attention was completely focused on the tennis ball. When he saw the tennis ball falling near the service line, he continuously adjusted in small steps and waited for the tennis ball to rebound. He raised his right hand high and prepared to hit the ball.
but!
Gao Wen did not take action immediately. Instead, he paused deliberately and watched Stakhovsky subconsciously run back towards his backhand position to defend. Then Gao Wen adjusted in two small steps and made a second forehand.
When you take the shot, you rely on your wrist to make a skateboarding action at the moment of release. You don't use all your strength, just flick it lightly.
state!
The tennis ball flew towards the wide gap of Stachovsky's forehand.
Stachovsky, who was running in the wrong direction, had no time to change his body's inertia. He could only stop with regret and watch the tennis ball fall to the ground to form the winning point.
Gawain's footsteps stopped in front of the net, he clenched his fist heavily and roared——
He did it deliberately to show the vigor and vitality of young people in this way.
In this shot, due to an accident, Stachovsky's return gave Gao Wen enough time, so Gao Wen used a fake move to deceive Stakhovsky, allowing Stakhovsky to prepare.
After the judgment is completed, Gawain habitually moves ahead, and then Gawain can choose another route calmly.
Anticipation means moving in advance. In a very fast back and forth batting, this little bit of advance can gain some initiative; however, once the speed of the batting round slows down, moving in advance means that
Losing your focus will ruin all your advantages.
At this moment, Stachovsky is like this; but Gawain's batting is not that simple.
Delaying the shot is often easy to miss the hitting point, especially after seeing a super big gap, it is easy to get anxious, and the shot may make a very outrageous mistake, so Gao Wen has been using small steps to adjust the position, and is more careful and focused when taking the shot.
And reduce the effort to ensure the success rate.
Sure enough, score.
"40:30".
The situation in this game changed subtly. Although Stachovsky still had one game point, there was only one.
One shot, outer corner.
Stachovsky obviously started to serve hard, trying to suppress Gawain's return with one serve, but the angle he pursued was too high and went directly out of bounds.
Stachovsky didn't have time to be upset. He adjusted slightly, took a deep breath and started his second serve.
Inner angle? Exterior angle? Near body?
Gawain's mind started spinning rapidly.
Second shot, outside corner.
Stachovsky still suppressed Gawain's backhand, and used the wide outside angle to limit Gawain's swing options——
Under such circumstances, the rotation and angle limit the space for hitting the ball. It is often difficult for Gauvin to hit a straight line, and a diagonal line is a high probability event. This also means that even if Gauvin completes the return, Stakhovsky will not be able to hit the ball in a straight line.
Be able to prepare in advance.
Then--
ah!
Gao Wen was trying hard to chase the ball, but he still didn't have enough time to stretch his backhand. Without his steps in place, his upper body stretched to the extreme and could barely reach the tennis ball; however, Gao Wen's brain remained calm because Stajo
Vski's second serve pursues the ultimate angle, so the speed and power are very average, which means that Gao Wen still has room to return the ball.
Chi.
Gawain held the racket with both hands and slashed hard, increasing the friction as much as possible in the limited time, and then used his wrist to make light and soft hooks.
You can see the tennis ball drawing a thin and shallow arc and flying past.
Slash?
Yes, as Stakhovsky expected, Gawain had no choice and responded with a slash, but there are many kinds of slashes:
The diagonal line that falls on the small triangle on the bottom line, the large diagonal line that falls on the side line, etc.
Gawain's diagonal line is a shallow diagonal line that falls in the service area. It is different from the ball that will bounce high after it hits the ground. Instead, it has an effect comparable to that of a small ball after the force is removed. It has no power after landing.
The bounce height and spin are very average.
Ah! Ahhh!
This time it was Stachovsky's turn to be in a hurry. He did not expect that Gao Wen actually returned the serve with the effect of a small ball.
If the previous return of serve was an accident, then this return of serve was a carefully designed effect. It only took one shot to reverse the disadvantage and push Stachovsky into the abyss.
