"6:4". Judging from the score, the first set seemed to be uneventful. Gao Wen won with a break of serve. However, in the first set alone, the game lasted 62 minutes. It was a hard court match.
It turned out to be a clay court match, and the long and arduous time could tell the difference.
But I don’t know what will happen in the second set.
The last game of the first set was Saramento's serve, so the first game of the second set was served by Gao Wen.
In football matches, tactics often change between the first and second half, and the same is true in tennis matches. Players need to summarize and think based on the situation in the first set, and then adjust tactics in subsequent matches, even in one set.
In the game, the tactics are also different from game to game.
Of course, both Saramento and Gao Wen are young college players, and their tactical reserves and on-the-spot experience are not rich enough. They cannot adjust their tactical framework at all times. As for the tactical changes between one set and one set, then
It depends on the brain, which is also part of tennis intelligence.
In Gao Wen's service game, he continued the tactical changes at the end of the first set.
The entire return line is obviously clearer, and the layout is completed through different combinations of placement, rotation and line - Saramento's ball quality is not heavy, and it puts little pressure on Gao Wen, which also makes Gao Wen's return
The ball can win more space.
What is sphericity?
To put it simply, it is still power and rotation, but it is more of a kind of tail power, that is, the power and rotation that still adheres to the tennis ball after it bounces off the ground. It is not just the speed of the ball, but also can directly create impact on the surface of the racket.
, press the opponent to wrap and control the tennis ball.
Serena Williams' ball quality is famous for its weight, which is like a cannonball. With the same hit, the opponent can feel the huge pressure on the wrist and forearm from all directions.
Rafael Nadal's ball quality is famous for its rotation. The average rotation speed of the forehand hit can reach more than 3,000, and 4,000 rotation speeds are common - the average rotation speed of ordinary players is around 2,000. So, when Nadal
When the return ball hits the opponent's racket, it is like a wall-breaking machine.
These are all spheres.
For onlookers, it is difficult to see these doorways with the naked eye. They often wonder, "This ball is not difficult, how come it is caught in the net", "This ball has a very ordinary route, why is it caught?", but
Only players on the court can feel the pressure brought by ball quality.
Saramento's ball quality is relatively mediocre, lacking both strength and spin, but his control of the parabola, landing point and sense of space of the return ball is still very good, which also allows his defense to always be in place. However,
After the defensive return ball lands, the subsequent impact is very limited.
Relatively speaking, Gawain's ball quality is slightly better in all aspects.
It is precisely because of this that when Gao Wen decides to change the layout of the return route, he will bear less pressure and can often achieve the hitting effect more smoothly.
Then, the scene changed subtly.
"15:0".
"30:0".
"30:15".
"40:15".
"Game, high."
In the blink of an eye, Gao Wen had successfully won his first serve of the second set, and it was also the easiest serve since the start of the match——
Only one point was lost, and each game lasted just over two minutes, which was much better than the five-minute tug-of-war in the first set.
The round ball is still a tug-of-war. Saramento's defense is still active, and the accuracy and return rate are very good. It is still extremely difficult for Gao Wen to score directly with two or three shots; but the point is, Gao Wen is still very active in defense.
Wen's offensive success rate has been greatly improved, and he is able to score points in the end.
A layman watches the fun, an expert watches the door.
For the audience, they couldn't see a reason. The most direct thought in their minds was that Saramento was affected by the last moment of the first set, and after the second set, the state fluctuated slightly; while Gao Wen
The momentum is at its peak, taking advantage of the momentum from the first set to gain the upper hand.
But Saramento knew otherwise.
He is still trying his best, he is still trying his best, because he knows that he has no way out, not only the Los Angeles City Derby, but also there is not much time left for him to prove to his father, he needs to burn all his energy
Energy to win every possible game.
Don't let go even if it's a glimmer of hope.
Now, Saramento is no longer angry, depressed or anxious. He is 100% focused and fighting for survival and his own life.
He needs to win this game.
The fear and panic of standing on the edge of the cliff actually made Saramento wake up during the break and face the opponent on the other side of the net for the first time.
Therefore, when the second set came up, Saramento's figure still covered the entire court and worked very hard, but Gao Wen still failed to find a chance in the first serve.
Saramento realized that Gawain had made changes, but his understanding of tennis limited his response. He didn't know how to deal with such a situation. The only thing he could do was-
Run, run with all your strength, burning with life.
Although he encountered some challenges in his own serve game, having a serve is still a very important advantage in men's tennis matches. After all, there are relatively few things that break the serve game, especially in games with close levels, so
, Saramento still managed to secure its hair.
"1:1".
"2:2".
"3:3".
Saramento did not collapse, and Gao Wen did not take advantage of the situation to sweep away. After the two players completed their service guarantees, the game continued to be stalemate.
The entire game process seemed to be exactly the same as the first set. It was Gawain who served first, and both sides guaranteed serve. It was also a stalemate.
But if you look closely, you can see that the content is different:
Gao Wen's service became more and more easy. In the first three service games, he did not encounter any break points. Not to mention break points, there were not even deuces. He only lost four points in total.
It became more and more difficult for Saramento to maintain serve. Two of the three service games were tied, and they faced three break points. The second service game was the most thrilling. At the break point, Gao Wen appeared.
The mistake of hitting the forehand into the net caused Saramento to go around in a circle before being able to hold serve, which was extremely thrilling.
The situation is quietly changing.
Gawain, who gradually gained the upper hand, was very upset after missing the break point, but he did not dwell on it. He could feel Saramento's high fighting spirit. His opponent would never give up easily. Not only would he not give up, but he would also
Still looking for opportunities to turn things around.
Gao Wen knows that he needs to be patient. Maybe others have forgotten it, but Gao Wen still remembers that Saramento is the seventh-ranked singles seed player in the United States. His ranking and strength are higher than his current self. He needs to do his best to win.
Only by going forward can we firmly hold victory in our hands.
