Match Point: Chapter 254 stand firm

Latest URL: Just a few months ago, during the National Championships, the media had already questioned Gao Wen's round, but it was ncaa, and now it's coming to the Binghamton Challenger League, the same controversy and doubts have been staged again, still It's the old three, there is nothing new, it makes people feel powerless.

However, for Gao Wen, it really had no effect at all, and his heart was like still water.

Anyway, Gao Wen has long been used to it. He is the weak side who keeps challenging his opponent, and he needs to continue to prove himself.

It is precisely because of this that when Gao Wen stood on the court with both feet, he was not nervous or apprehensive, but prepared to fight with high spirits—

There is no doubt that Stakhovsky is a master, at least for Gao Wen at this stage.

Players who can beat Federer at Wimbledon, even if they have luck, even if they are injured now, should not be underestimated, because this in itself proves that Stakhovski is capable of strong confrontation and high pressure in the professional arena. The ability to confront has a place in the tour.

Gao Wen has been looking forward to playing against the top 100 players in the world, testing his state and strength, and looking for breakthrough opportunities, and now Stahovski is such an opportunity.

How could Gao Wen not expect it?

Compared with nervousness, anticipation and excitement kept Gao Wen highly focused. The previous mistake of being overly excited due to too much anticipation has never happened again. The whole brain is always awake, running at high speed and fully committed. At the beginning, it has entered the state of competition.

At the beginning, it is still in the trial stage.

Soon, Gao Wen realized the essential difference between "professional players at the challenge level" and "professional players at the tour level"—

power? speed? Physical fitness?

None of them.

In fact, objectively speaking, competitive sports really need talent very much. Without "one percent inspiration" as a premise, even if "ninety-nine percent sweat" works hard and hard, there is no hope. This is beyond doubt ; However, after competitive sports reach a certain height, it is different.

In professional tennis, the top 100 players in the world, either with physical talent or technical talent, always have their own specialties, regardless of their strengths. That is to say, they only rely on strength or speed to suppress and even win Victory is very difficult.

In the world of competitive sports, the most indispensable thing is talent.

Except for a very few players who have incredible talents like Kyrgios, the ability of other players to reach the top 100 stage in the world shows that they already have "one percent inspiration". Ninety-nine out of sweat" and brains.

In ncaa, challenges, youth games, players tend to tend to play with their bodies, relying purely on instinct/ability to hit the ball and continue the game.

However, in the tour competition, the physical fitness of the players is almost the same, so it is necessary to compete at the tactical level, inspirational level and psychological level.

What's the meaning?

To put it simply, in a challenge game, a player may only need to hit three or five shots to overwhelm the opponent, form a winning point or make an opponent's mistake; Fifteen beats, or more purposeful layout and planning in the first three beats, is it possible to score.

This is the difference.

Therefore, if we simply talk about strength and speed, the players in the ncaa and the Challenger League already have the ability to compete on a professional tour, and there is no huge gap between them.

However, in competitions at the challenge level, it is often possible to see players fully exerting their strength. Three shots and five shots of ping-ping-pong-pong have already ended a point neatly; but in tournament-level events, exertion and control, adjustment and Change persists throughout.

Kokinakis is the most typical representative. He exerts his strength all the way until he has no strength. If he defeats his opponent, he will win; but if he gritted his teeth like Gawain and withstood the impact, the situation will be reversed.

Of course, Binghamton is a challenge, not a tour.

But the reason why Gao Wen felt this was because Stakhovsky possessed the ability of the tour—

The quality of offense and defense has obviously improved to a higher level.

Moreover, it is not just purely relying on footsteps and running to defend like Sacramento, but a kind of anticipation and guidance. Every time you hit and return the ball, you can feel the high-speed rotation of your brain and fight for your own defense. advantage, and then be able to continue the high-quality rounds.

What's the meaning?

Stakhovsky was able to make a judgment one step ahead of time based on Gao Wen's swing movement, hitting habits, and the rotation and force suppression of his own return, and then he was in place ahead of time for the next shot.

Prediction is actually Gao Wen’s strong point, but it is obvious that Gao Wen’s game experience is insufficient, and his judgment on some hitting movements is still not accurate enough. In addition, he also lacks the accumulation of past experience in the opponent’s hitting habits and line selection. More time to collect data.

This slight difference is reflected in the game confrontation, that is, a slight difference, but it can directly affect the choice of hitting point and the stretch of hitting action, and then directly reflect on the quality of the ball returned. Naturally, this is also This put Gao Wen under even greater pressure.

On the one hand, the quality of one's own return needs to be improved; on the other hand, the quality of the opponent's return also requires more effort.

Although Stakhovski is no longer in the state of last year due to injuries, but the "injury version" of Stakhovski is still a top existence in the challenge level, and his overall strength is completely comparable to that of the previous year. Zverev Jr. contended.

It is not unfounded that everyone is looking forward to the powerful collision where the top two seeds will meet.

"2:2".

In the opening stage, both sides were testing and adjusting. Although they encountered some confrontation, neither player sent a break point and successfully secured the serve.

Stakhovski, who chose to serve first, continued to usher in his own serve after a big draw, but he did not expect that Gao Wen would attack early.

For Stakhovsky~www.mtlnovel.com~ he was a little surprised but not surprised. Sure enough, young people are always full of energy and can't wait to attack first; but the experienced Stakhovsky was not flustered at all , coped calmly, and the aura displayed from the inside out was different from any of Gao Wen's previous opponents.

Experience, this is indeed an irreparable gap, there is no shortcut, it can only be accumulated slowly through actual combat.

"30:15".

Facing Gawain's continuous attacks, Stakhovski used excellent defense to defuse the opponent's offensive, and then found a gap to complete the counterattack.

That is to say, even though Gao Wen took the lead, it failed to convert into a score. Stakhovsky's calm performance still firmly controlled the situation, maintaining the lead in his own serve, and then he didn't pay attention, Gao Wen Another error sent, and the opponent got two periods.

So, Gao Wen, who took the lead in this sentence, has no chance?

"40:15".
