Match Point - Chapter 1379
pretty!
Even Gao Wen wanted to applaud Tsonga, this time the ball control was really very, very good, but Gao Wen was not ready to give up.
Regardless of whether he could catch up in the end, he should at least try to see that Gao Wen’s fighting spirit was burning, and every inch of his muscles was exploding.
Yet, not enough, not enough—
Tsonga’s small ball had everything it needed to land, some to drop, some to unload, some to spin, and it pushed Gawain directly to the edge of the cliff.
then.
kick.
A rush.
Sliding step, has already rushed out.
If it is on a hard court, then this ball is definitely powerless, and the only thing we can do is to applaud Tsonga; but here is clay, and there is more knowledge, speed and spin in this court. Differences can also often become unknown variables in the game.
In fact, Gao Wen’s sliding step still needs to continue to learn.
Not to mention comparing with top players like Nadal and Thiem, there is still a gap compared with ordinary clay court players. After all, he is still a novice.
However, Gao Wen firmly remembered Graf’s opinion:
Sliding and spinning, this is an essential weapon to adapt to the clay game.
Some players, because of the win or loss in front of them, often dare not try these unfamiliar techniques, still choose the most familiar and most suitable way to play, and refuse to go out of the comfort zone; but this is wrong, the vision needs to be long-term, anyway To learn to adapt, try as soon as possible to shorten the trial and error time.
“Don’t be afraid to fail, and don’t be afraid to make mistakes.”
so-
Although he is not very proficient, despite the tremendous pressure on and off the court when he came to Roland Garros this time, Gao Wen’s tactical execution is still very firm.
Sliding step, jumped out without hesitation.
When the footsteps have not reached the bottom line of the teeing area, the sliding step has been pushed out, and the clay court turns into a ski resort in a second, with billowing red waves flying.
Behind him, there is a long trail left behind, the hem of the clothes fluttering in the wind is so chic and light, like a flash of shock, it flashes before his eyes.
rustle.
rustle.
But soon, Gao Wen realized that it was too early to start.
The difficulty of the technique of “sliding steps” lies in, one is balance, how to skillfully maintain the center of gravity of the body; the other is control, combining multiple factors such as timing, strength and speed, when to start, how much acceleration to attach, when to brake, How to start again after braking.
For Gao Wen, the former is not difficult, and he can see the importance of basic footwork skills; but the latter is a new subject.
The so-called unfamiliar and unskilled refers specifically to the second half.
Gao Wen’s calculation of the distance and position of the sliding step is still not accurate enough, as if now—
Because I was worried that I would not be able to control the speed and hit the net, so I started a little earlier, but the power was exhausted, and then…
Can’t catch up.
It’s still half a step away.
what to do?
However, Gao Wen’s upper body was completely leaned forward, and the flexibility of his body had been pushed to the extreme. From the audience stands or the live broadcast, it could be seen that from the thighs to the torso to the racket, it stretched into a straight line, and the breath stretched behind him Waves and white lines perfectly display the magnificence of vision.
near.
closer.
Seeing that the tennis ball has started to fall for the second time, it seems that it can no longer withstand the pressure of rotation and gravity, and it falls vertically.
Then, the racquet head appeared.
One rub, one pick.
With a light flick of the wrist, it was like a slender hand that had lifted the veil. It didn’t feel any force at all, it just pushed along with the trend.
Snapped.
Gently, softly, softly, the tennis ball flew back again.
High and floating.
It can be seen at a glance that Gao Wen did not pursue the ultimate – of course, it may also be that the body has reached the extreme and there is no way to continue to pursue detailed control; on the contrary, the entire return arc is very ordinary and simple, just like this Lift up and come back to the other side.
straight line.
midfield.
However, this is enough.
Not far away, Tsonga has fallen to the ground, and the entire left field has been completely emptied. Although Tsonga has stood up quickly, the starting speed is still too late, especially when Gao Wen pushed a midfield ball, which is not deep, but Enough, and flew past Tsonga’s position to the backcourt.
As soon as the footsteps started, Tsonga realized that he could not catch up, so he stopped helplessly and watched the tennis ball form two jumps.
From tense to relaxed, then tense and finally back to relaxed, the bayonet saw red hand-to-hand combat, and finally came to an abrupt end in such a way.
The audience was silent, quietly watching the two players on the field—
Tsonga, in a state of distress, wet with sweat and clay, looked like a failed superhero.
Gao Wen sat on the ground eating dirt with his legs split, panting like a cow, his face flushed, and he didn’t even have the energy to roar, but just clenched his fists and his eyes were bright.
It can be seen from the state of the two players that they have tried their best for this point without reservation.
boom!
In an instant, the audience surged, and the passion and enthusiasm deep in the heart finally could no longer be suppressed, and a strong blowout broke out.
When the game reached the final set, when the game was about to last for three hours, the two players were still in such a state and dedicated such a wonderful round.
At this moment, any audience who was watching the live broadcast of the game, without exception, all gave applause.
Even the two players are no exception.
Amidst the roar that swept the audience, Tsonga walked towards Gao Wen and asked with his eyes; He punched to celebrate, and smiles came to the corners of his mouth.
Ahhh!
Ahhh!
The applause and whistle are rising, creating an unbelievable heat wave, and even the layers of dark clouds covering the top of the head have become a supporting role. Even if the end of the world comes, they are still carnival at the party. Every minute and every second of life, burn and bloom wantonly.
Whether it is Gao Wen or Tsonga, they have performed well in the first three rounds, but the only regret is that the opponent’s stamina is not enough.
Especially for Gao Wen, against Tim and Parley, the last set of the two consecutive games was directly overwhelmed, one-sided, and the strong confrontation did not last to the end.
However, today, the game has entered the final set, but the contest between you and me still maintains a strong sense of tension, and the suspense of UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is still unknown.
Fans at the Stade Philippe Chartier, rejoice—
Originally, because of the potential threat of the weather, people should leave one after another. No one wants to be drenched, but this is not the case at the scene. The Philippe-Chatier Stadium is slowly being filled bit by bit. From 60% in the opening stage, it has gradually broken through 80%.
And, it continues to rise. For a fourth-round match, such a scene is really rare. It seems that the eyes of the entire Roland Garros are gathering towards the center court.
Tsonga’s appeal is unquestionable, but the wonderful performance he and Gao Wen jointly contributed is the key.
No one should miss this collision.
Wonderful and still going on.
