Match Point: Chapter 1187 subtle volley

Gao Wen? Hot blooded?

How can it be!

detail.

The focus of everything lies in the tactical details, just like a chess game.

Gao Wen has a clear understanding of Nadal's strong defensive ability, especially on clay courts. The slowing down of the ball speed and the enhancement of rotation give Nadal more time to predict, move, and adjust. The Spanish Bulls' defense The talent is further magnified, and it is even more like a duck to water here.

Therefore, layout requires patience, wisdom, and secrecy.

Just now, for three shots in a row, Gao Wen's control of the landing point concealed his sharpness. He pressed the forehand twice and the backhand once. Fight back, maintain the delicate balance of the confrontation, and then strike.

then-

When hitting the ball with the ball on the net, Nadal on the opposite side of the court is in a state of continuous running and moving. Although it is not difficult for Nadal to move at a uniform speed; but the real point is that Nadal must make judgments, keep Be vigilant and continue the state of continuous movement.

Especially in the last point, Gao Wen just chose to use the small ball tactic to break the balance and enrich his tactical system. Nadal also had to guard against it.

This is the foreshadowing that keeps Nadal's brain going.

In the end, Gao Wen chose to hit the ball on the net, and he was also very particular about the choice of route and landing point. He repeatedly hit the ball back and hit Nadal forehand.

Here, there is also particularity:

Of course, both the forehand and the backhand of Nadal have a strong ability to break the net, and the techniques are varied and varied, such as straight line, slash, chasing, high, topspin, backspin, etc., both sides are sharp enough. Stable enough, which is why Nadal can suppress Federer.

According to one data, Federer and Nadal have met 16 times on clay, and Nadal is far ahead with 14 wins and 2 losses.

In other words, Nadal's ability to break the net is perfectly displayed on the clay court.

Even so, there is still a small difference between Nadal's forehand and backhand. In the backhand position, Nadal can use his strength to hit almost any line when he is in a passive position; in the forehand position, Nadal tries to counterattack. Then it is more dominated by slashes—

With the slash, Nadal is not worried about being seen through by his opponent. With his "super top spin", Nadal can often exert unparalleled pressure through his forehand and force his opponent to make a mistake; even if the opponent completes the volley, the quality of the return is not high. , Nadal can make up another shot later.

Therefore, Nadal's forehand does choose more slashes.

This is the details.

The foreshadowing in front is to interfere with Nadal's hitting and power.

The latter choice is to limit Nadal's return line.

Then, Gao Wen went online.

Along the middle of the court, all the way forward, the footsteps appeared in front of the net in a blink of an eye, watching Nadal's movements intently.

really!

The back ball slightly restricted Nadal's footsteps, he paused, and then started the second time. At this time, it can be seen that Nadal's simple but gorgeous footstep control on the clay did not rely on forced movement at all, but kicked and slipped. A side slide already pushes the body out.

Immediately afterwards, there was no need to make an emergency brake at all. With a slight kick of the left foot, the body was already under control.

Easy and practical.

At the same time, Nadal also caught a glimpse of Gao Wen's figure on the Internet, and immediately made adjustments when he shot with his left hand—

Signature intense topspin.

The complete movement around the head will completely brush up the friction, and use the strength of the arms and wrists to throw a strong tail force, and the tennis ball will fly out.

boom!

Slash!

Diagonal!

Also, topspin!

Immediately afterwards, Nadal followed suit. Regardless of whether he succeeded in breaking the net, he would always prepare for the next shot. This is a habit.

Apparently, Nadal was about to enter the arena and start a hand-to-hand collision with Gao Wen, staring at Gao Wen with burning eyes.

Gao Wen, pause, start, stride.

All the movements are done in one go, and the start is very light and fast. It can be seen that Nadal's net-breaking line was accurately predicted.

Backhand with both hands, set up, it is not a lead shot action, but a volley action.

For volleys, the key point is that the arms and wrists must be straight, that is, they must be "hard". Only in this way can the surface of the racket be kept stable and the counterattack of hitting the wall can be completed.

The sea breeze was blowing slightly, blowing the silk, and Gao Wen's face looked focused and devoted.

coming!

Nadal's strong topspin rushed towards him. Gao Wen straightened his arms and took the initiative to meet him, but he slightly let go of his left hand when he felt the tennis ball hit the racket line.

With a slight flick of the wrist, all the rotation and power are wrapped up and dissolved invisible.

With a slight turn of the racket, it unloads the force of the impact tail like a boomerang, pushing and blocking.

That posture is like picking up an embroidery needle and threading the needle.

Hush...

On the soles of the feet, one glides, comparable to surfing, stepping on the red soil and sliding forward, the breeze blowing to the face passes under the arms, as if flying with wings.

From footsteps to wrists, the whole body is perfectly coordinated.

However, everything happened between lightning and flint, and the tennis ball was gently rubbed up by the wrist, relying on the reaction force to complete the hit.

Lift heavy, if light.

The tennis ball draws a small arc.

For a moment, everyone held their breath.

Lightly, mischievously, and skillfully, the tennis ball just crossed the net, almost stuck to the net and fell to the other side, and then fell vertically.

All the power ~www.mtlnovel.com~ is completely removed, like a feather falling on the mud, floating gently on the water surface, and the water droplets condense on the feather.

After the tennis ball hit the ground, there was not much strength left, and the height of the rebound was barely visible. Soon, it landed for the second time, and then rolled out with a grunt, dragging a long wave on the clay court.

Perfect!

Almost perfect!

From the shot timing to the volleying technique to the details, it was impeccable. In a flawless way, the successful interception put an end to this point.

Execute exactly as planned.

In the game and confrontation, Gao Wen had the last laugh at this point.

"30:0".

No wonder Roeg looked at Sampras—

Going to the net with the ball, this technique is the focus of Sampras's constant attempt to change Gawain's tactical framework. After all, this is Sampras' special skill.

Since Melbourne, Gao Wen has been testing this technology one after another, but after all, there is still insufficient training time, and the proportion of use is not high enough. The same is true for the subsequent Sunshine Double Championships.

It is widely speculated that Gao Wen and Sampras are still training and polishing, and it is estimated that they will not be able to truly test this technology until the grass season.

But he didn't expect that in today's training match on the clay court, he saw Gao Wen show a top level, and even blocked Nadal's broken net——

It's difficult, just ask Federer, but Gao Wen just hit the ball this time, it was impeccable, and the replay ball of the volley directly nailed Nadal in place. Even though Nadal had started immediately, he still couldn't catch up. , a slide brake to control the body and give up chasing.

Wonderful!

Really wonderful! A level of applause.
