MTL - Match Point-Chapter 1380 mine attack
"0:15".
Tsonga was ready to continue the competition, but when he looked up, he saw that Gao Wen was not in place yet, so he had to relax in his preparation posture.
Just now, due to a small accident, the two players were pushed to the extreme, and both fell to the ground, covered with red clay.
Tsonga is a casual player, he simply slapped it twice, and then he was ready to continue serving; but Gao Wen felt uncomfortable, the red clay stuck to his calf, palm, and arm, and the whole feeling was not good, so he Go to the sidelines and simply wipe off with a sweaty towel.
At the same time, Gao Wen also took advantage of this opportunity to catch his breath—
In this point, Gawain's running distance far exceeded Tsonga's, and he made two long-distance runs without oxygen, which obviously deviated slightly from the established plan.
But tennis is such a sport that changes all the time. Players must constantly make adjustments according to the situation on the court. Once the adjustments cannot keep up with the changes, they may get into trouble and even lose the game.
According to the original plan, Gao Wen did not intend to expend so much energy on this point, desperately trying to save the ball; now, he tried his best to score this point, so should he follow the trend in this round and try to see if he can win? To the opportunity or even to build a lead?
Thoughts, turning quickly in my mind.
Gao Wen made full use of the short adjustment time, and his entire brain was reorganized clearly—
At least, for the next point, he can fight hard to see.
On the one hand, further suppress Tsonga's small universe burning.
On the other hand, since the first point has been scored, the whole state should continue to see.
If you can't fight it out, then adjust it again; but if you fight it out, you really have a chance in this round.
call…
Gawain let out a long breath, turned back to the baseline, and raised his racket to apologize to Tsonga.
Then, bend over, bend your knees, and prepare to receive the serve.
Snapped. Snapped.
Tsonga was still Tsonga. Even if Gao Wen was a little bit late, he didn't care at all, and he continued to move forward at his own pace.
As soon as Gao Wen was in place, Tsonga had already started to serve without any hesitation or adjustment.
District Two, Outer Corner—
Suppress Gao Wen's backhand.
It can be seen from the point selection of the first serve that Tsonga was not affected by the previous point, and still insisted on his strategy—
His stamina did fluctuate.
Tsonga's explosive power is very, very good, but his endurance is relatively short, so his ups and downs during the game are also more obvious.
Compared with others, Tsonga is most familiar with the state of his own body, and he realizes that he needs to burn.
First of all, this is his serve and he needs to keep it.
Secondly, he needs to mobilize his energy. After securing his serve, he needs to prepare for Gao Wen's serve in the next game, trying to break serve as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, in the final set, as the party serving last, his situation will become more and more unfavorable.
In other words, the next two rounds are very, very important. They are likely to determine the outcome of the game, and Tsonga needs to win.
Therefore, Tsonga began to fight for the serve.
Throughout the game, Tsonga still mainly suppressed Gao Wen's forehand, and here we can also see Tsonga's confidence in his forehand attack power; in comparison, he chose to suppress Gao Wen's backhand when serving There are times, but not many.
At this time, Tsonga chose the outer corner of the second zone, which was a suppression and a surprise attack.
This time, Tsonga counted Gao Wen—
Gao Wen's footsteps were obviously not timely enough, so that it affected the capture of the hitting point, and the closing movement of the backhand with both hands was still a bit slow.
Although the two-handed backhand still successfully touched the ball, the entire parabola and flight path were not suppressed, and it flew all the way to the depths of the bottom line.
To make matters worse, there is a lack of rotation, which means that there is almost no way to limit Tsonga's offense except for the depth of the landing.
really!
Tsonga was not soft on his hands. He led the racket early, set up the artillery, and prepared to attack with a ruthless hand. He could feel the strength of the shot from the posture of swinging the racket.
It can be imagined that Tsonga was determined to win this shot—
However!
Tsonga slams his racket with a quake-like swing, but... nothing happens, not even the sound of the impact being heard.
Wave!
There was only the sound of an empty racket swing, like an empty shell.
Huh!
The whole audience was stunned!
Gao Wen was crossing the field, preparing to go to his forehand position to defend and save the ball. In his opinion, it was a high probability event that Tsonga chose the forehand diagonally; but while running, he lost the tennis ball. Did he stare at the ball? So did Tsonga choose a slash or a straight line?
Gao Wen:? ? ?
While running wildly, Gawain also slowed down his pace. At a glance, he saw that Tsonga was also full of question marks. His batting and swinging movements froze in place. He lowered his head and looked around in a daze, as if the honey had been stolen by a fox. He was like a bear, and while he was confused, there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.
A little slower by half a beat, Gawain came to his senses, and Tsonga also came to his senses—
It seems that it should have encountered a landmine.
As mentioned earlier, in clay courts, the field is covered with soil, and players move back and forth on it, which will inevitably lead to uneven distribution of soil. Under the sand, there may often be hidden mines.
That is, a small soil bag, or a small piece of soil with a lower density so that it is stronger and more cohesive, which is also known as a "landmine".
When the tennis ball lands on a mine, the flight path is broken, changing the trajectory at the last moment, breaking the players' judgment of the trajectory of the return ball.
Sometimes, with better luck, players can still touch the ball if they have time to change, but the quality of the return depends purely on luck.
Sometimes, not.
Just like Tsonga, he swung his racket out, and after the tennis ball hit the landmine, the entire arc was lower than expected, showing a vertical falling cliff-like downward trajectory, all the laws of power and rotation were broken, and finally from Tsonga's racket bottom line drilled through—
Straight away.
Similar accidents are common and common in the clay court. This is a part of the clay. Those hidden thunders can never be predicted.
It's pure luck, like wiping the net.
Gao Wen was full of question marks.
Tsonga is full of question marks.
The audience was also full of question marks.
It wasn't until the referee announced the score that everyone reacted one after another.
Tsonga showed a helpless smile~www.novelbuddy.com~Although it was not Gao Wen's mistake, Gao Wen still raised his hands to express his apology. This is obviously not the way he hoped to score.
Tsonga raised his eyebrows and glanced at Gao Wen, the corners of his mouth curled up.
Tsonga is informal and very calm about these accidents. He walked forward shaking his head and smoothed the position of the tennis ball with his feet, trying to offset the landmines and avoid the same situation from happening again.
Buzz, buzz.
The Philippe-Chatier stadium was a little restless, and no one expected that the second critical turning point in the final set would appear like this.
Last time it was Gao Wen, but this time it was Tsonga who had to face the crisis.
