Almighty Athlete Chapter 69: See through
Federer finally won the game with a strong serve. The 3-2 score in the first set still left Federer temporarily behind. He had to score a break before he could even the score.
But with Zhang Guan serving level, Federer wants to break a break is not easy, of course, Zhang Guan is just as difficult to get a break in Federer.
Both are top athletes. They are technically impeccable. According to the advantages of tennis players, if the opponent does not make mistakes, it is almost impossible to break. Especially in the ordinary game, the server has to serve at least four times to win the next game, so the occasional one or two mistakes of the server have little effect on keeping his own service, and even if the receiver can Every mistake made by an opponent is not necessarily a success.
4-2, 4-3, 5-3, this is the result of the next three innings of the two sides, Zhang Guan and Federer have successfully saved their serve, also did not break the other's serve, if According to this trend, the victory of this set will be Zhang Guan.
Federer’s serve in the ninth game between the two sides.
For Federer, it is necessary to keep this round. Only after holding this round and then getting a break in the next round will it be possible to continue this game.
Zhang Guan looked at Federer. He saw a kind of tenacity in Federer's eyes. Zhang Guan could feel that Federer had confidence in his serve.
Zhang Guan thought for a while, he felt that it was really difficult to break, so he decided to give up this game strategically and try his best to serve the next game.
Federer under pressure did show bravery, sending two consecutive ACE **** from the start, making Zhang Guan a bit caught off guard. Then Federer became more and more courageous in battle. The powerful forehand was brought into play without giving any breathing opportunities. After the storm, he scored two goals and gave Zhang Guan a love-game.
The score came to 5-4, and Zhang Guan just had to win the serve. You can still get victory in this game.
Federer has a habit. If the tenth set is the opponent’s serve, he will change to a new set of rackets. The referee obviously knows this habit. So remind Zhang Guan to wait a bit, it is also suggesting that Zhang Guan can drink some water or wipe sweat.
Federer’s breathing was a little short, and the storm-like attack of the previous round also consumed a lot of physical energy for Federer. If he did not feel the pressure, Federer would not carry out such a high-intensity attack.
Federer, who replaced a new racket, stood on the court again. Wait for Zhang Guan to serve.
Zhang Guan throws the ball and swings to make a serve.
In the audience, Sharapova's eyes widened for the first time: "This action is larger than usual. Will Zhang Guan try to serve again?"
The idea just flashed through Sharapova’s mind. Zhang Guan had already swung the racket, and then tennis had fallen to Federer’s half.
"It's fast!" Federer thought about it, almost an instinctive swing of the body, but the swing was empty.
"Full shot!" Federer realized that the speed of the ball was too fast, and his physical response did not keep up. Federer immediately looked at the display on the sidelines. The above shows that the speed of the ball reached 230 kilometers per hour!
"The ball at a speed of 230 kilometers per hour!" Federer took a breath. In the previous game between Zhang Guan and Gonzalez, Federer had sighed at a speed of more than 230 kilometers per hour. At that time, Federer beside the TV also sighed. But now when he really faces such a fast serve, Federer realized A ball of this speed will never be received unless it is just in front of your racket.
"Is Zhang Guan fighting this game with all his strength? Indeed, as long as he wins this game, he can win the game." Federer shook his head slightly, and he suddenly blamed himself.
"I blame me, entering the game is too slow. The Zhang Guan broke a game first. If I had this state at the beginning of the game, the winner of this set might be me, at least I can hit it. Let's tie the game! It's definitely not as passive as it is now."
Federer took a deep breath. He quickly adjusted his mind and prepared to receive the second goal, obviously Federer did not intend to give up.
"Drink!" Just listened to Zhang Guan shouting, the tennis ball has landed, and then popped out of bounds.
"OUT!" The line referee's voice only sounded after a second. It can be seen that the line referee was also hesitant. He only called out "OUT" after careful consideration.
Federer immediately looked at Zhang Guan. He wanted to know whether Zhang Guan would challenge Eagle Eye. Federer obviously believed Zhang Guan's judgment more than the lineman's eyes.
Zhang Guan did not challenge, he took out the tennis ball and prepared to serve the second ball, which made Federer breathe a sigh of relief.
"It looks like it's really an out-of-bounds ball." Federer bowed and prepared to catch the ball.
Flying tennis, Zhang Guan’s second serve is still very strong, but it is much slower than the first ball. With Federer’s ability, although the ball is a bit rushed, he has successfully made a beautiful serve. .
"I left a flaw in the forehand, Zhang Guan will definitely attack the forehand, and then I will directly change the forehand to attack his backhand!" Federer thought of doing it, and when he received the ball again, he deliberately revealed A flaw.
"Federer's forehand is flawed!" The opposite Zhang Guan immediately noticed this, he attacked the past with a strong blow, that is, the moment Zhang Guan swung, Federer's body suddenly changed direction and moved towards the tennis ball. Ran away.
Almost at this moment, Zhang Guan immediately flashed an idea in his mind: "The next ball will force a line change to attack the backhand!"
This is Federer's experience. In reality, Federer is preparing to do so.
I saw Federer make an emergency stop, his body swings, and his forehand made a large arc. The tennis ball has completed the sideline and flew directly to the Zhang Guan backhand.
"Successful!" Federer turned to look around, but found that Zhang Guan had already stopped on the receiving line, and then Zhang Guan was also a big arc action, but began to attack Federer's backhand~IndoMTL.com~ what ? He saw my thoughts again! "Federer was a little caught off guard. He didn't want to think carefully, but ran quickly to catch the ball.
"The distance is too far, you can only cut the ball backhand!" Federer backhanded the ball over the net, but the quality of the ball is not high.
Federer’s forehand chopping is arguably the strongest among professional athletes, but he rarely uses backhand chopping because he is a one-handed backhand player. Federer’s backhand chopping is not as powerful as a forehand, even It is because he can cut out a very high-speed spin, but he cannot guarantee the speed of the ball.
This ball has a strong spin, but it is not fast, and Zhang Guan is a fast moving player, which means that Zhang Guan can receive the ball more comfortably.
Seeing the direction of Zhang Guan returning to the ball, Federer has realized that this ball, he will definitely be called back by Zhang Guan to run the full field, and then take a chance by Zhang Guan to give a fatal blow. However, Federer did not give up, he will make mistakes in Zhang Guan.
However, Federer was still disappointed. After Zhang Guan's three consecutive powerful attacks, Federer's defense was disintegrated. Zhang Guan scored another goal and the score came to 30-0.
"Why is this? This is the sixth time!" Federer frowned: "This is now in the tenth inning, this is the sixth time Zhang Guan saw through my intentions, and this time I used It’s not a regular play style. I set a trap on purpose, and it was also seen by him. Just now that ball, besides me, no one in this world should think that I want to change the line. How could he know me Thoughts?"
