Chapter 202: Thriving
"The situation of the game has changed slightly."
"When Jilong was the first to provoke the battle but encountered an unexpected strong counterattack from the opponent, his attention was a little distracted. He could feel that his rhythm was a little messy after consecutive misses. Then he was immediately caught by the opponent and fell into crisis in his own serve game."
"Here, Gao Wen also read the game sharply. He realized that his opponent's condition was a little fluctuating. Although he was a little tired, he still took advantage of the momentum and launched a series of strong attacks. Obviously, Jilong's consecutive second serves gave him the opportunity to attack."
"During the game, the mentality fluctuates and the state fluctuates all the time. Suppression and counterattack, pressure and rebound, everything is very direct. It's like a boxing match, the checks and balances between the two sides are fluid."
"Gilon needs to regain his focus quickly, otherwise the first set may go too fast."
"Welcome to the world of tennis."
As Sofar was explaining, Giron made another mistake. Feeling the pressure of Gao Wen's deep return on his forehand, he tried to grab a rising point to fight back, but he was too hasty and hit the ball too early, and then it went directly into the net.
"15:40".
He just got a break point in Gao Wen's serve, and the next moment he faced a break point in his own serve.
call……
Jilong adjusted his breathing continuously, forced himself to calm down, turned his back to Gao Wen and jumped twice on the spot, secretly clenching his fists to make himself focus again.
Otherwise, we would be in a passive position in the first set.
On the first break point, Jilong's first serve still didn't go in. The rhythm of this game was indeed not very good. Then his second serve was a bit weak, and he tried to serve a close serve in the middle.
However, he was unable to muster up speed and strength. Instead, Gawain made way for him with a single step, then raised his forehand and launched a direct attack.
Receive the serve!
Boom! Gao Wen played very aggressively, with a full forehand swing, but unfortunately, the ball hit a little early, and the arc of the ball was too low. He hoped that the speed and power of the whole shot would be increased, but it went directly into the net.
"30:40".
Jilong escaped because Gao Wen's shot, once it passed the net, he really had no chance -
This is also a strange Gawain.
Gawain can indeed receive serves and has quite a few aces in return serve, but Gawain does not have an all-out offensive style like Thompson. It is very rare for him to receive serves so aggressively and relentlessly, and he even swings the ball in a circle, which really caught Giron off guard.
Jilong was severely frightened.
It seems that Gao Wen has also started to speed up.
Although Gao Wen's serve was unsuccessful, the aggression of his entire shot still intimidated Jilong, which directly led to Jilong's urgent need for his own first serve to escort the ball when he served again.
Because Gao Wen definitely wouldn't and wouldn't dare to grab a shot.
However……
"Still no shots."
"Gilon's hands are a bit tight now, and his serve still feels a bit unsmooth. On the second break point, he serves again."
Sampras gently bumped Tobias's shoulder and said with a smile, "If I say that Gao Wen deliberately rushed to receive the serve last shot, would you believe it?"
Tobias was a little surprised and looked at Sampras in astonishment, "You mean, this kid already knows how to play like this?"
Of course Tobias knew what Sampras meant: because Gawain had two break points, he deliberately grabbed a serve, that is, fighting. If he hit the ball, he would break the serve directly; if he didn't hit it, it didn't matter, because there was still a break point anyway, but this fighting shot could form a psychological deterrent.
Simply put, beyond the score, it is like a chess game and it has risen to a psychological game.
Not to mention the NCAA, even in professional competitions, it is estimated that only the top 20 players in the world have such wisdom and dare to do this in actual competitions.
Most players honestly seize every opportunity. After all, if you miss a break point, it means you have one less. How can you dare to waste it?
If Gawain has really grown to such a height, it is indeed worth looking at.
Sampras raised an eyebrow at Tobias and said nothing more, just motioned for him to continue watching the game.
Tobias had to admit that he had no interest in today's game, but now he was pleasantly surprised, far exceeding his expectations.
Bang! In the time it took for their eyes to meet, Jilong had already fired his second serve.
Outside corner.
Jilong had obviously thought it over carefully, fearing that the speed and power of his close serve would not be able to create effective pressure, and would instead become an offensive opportunity for Gao Wen. He chose the outside corner because so far today, his serve was still mainly aimed at suppressing Gao Wen's forehand, and he needed to take him by surprise at the critical moment.
What's more, when opening the angle in the outside corner, there is no need to pursue strength and speed. The focus is on controlling the landing point, which can ensure the success rate while also being able to form suppression.
So, the outside corner.
Gao Wen did not expect that after he had just launched a strong attack, Jilong would dare to challenge his stronger backhand.
The movement of footsteps was slightly slow.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
In fact, it was just that he lacked the little time to predict in advance, and instead he moved reflexively the moment he saw Jilong serve.
But just this little bit of time means you missed the opportunity to grab the first spot.
Fortunately, Jilong's second serve was indeed slow, with the speed dropping to 143 kilometers per hour, which was even slower than the average serve speed of female players, which gave Gao Wen enough time.
Tap tap.
Tap tap.
Gawain's feet were completely pulled out, and Jilong's second serve completely opened up the angle, and Gawain's body was about to enter the doubles area.
Then, the body is thrown out while running quickly, with the upper body completely leaning forward. While controlling the balance, the racket is led early. The whole swing action is very complete, using the inertial speed of the body to transmit all the power of the kick.
A kick! A swing! Bang.
I seemed to be able to hear the sound of the tennis ball hitting the string, and then my hands quickly closed together, drawing a round semicircle. At the top of the semicircle, my wrists gently pushed outward and forward, and the continuous swinging action was terminated, and all the power was pushed forward.
Bang! The next second, his body followed the hitting motion and took a big step forward.
Whoosh! The tennis ball turned into a streak of light and flew towards Jilong's entire right forehand space like a meteor.
Backhand straight line!
Gawain's signature stroke line shows great consistency at crucial moments, flawlessly combining body strength with stroke action.
In a flash, before even having time to catch my breath, the tennis ball had already flown out, lightly crossed the net, and landed in the straight gap.
Land. Bounce.
Jilong, who had just finished serving and had not had time to regain his position, watched his open space as the tennis ball flew across the court and hit the backboard.
Boom! "Competition, high."
Return serve ACE, break successfully! Second update.
