Match Point: Chapter 757 1 Meticulous
Chapter 758 Meticulous
In competitive sports, top players meet on a narrow road, what is the most important thing?
Willpower!
In the 2012 Australian Open final, Djokovic played against Nadal. The two top players dedicated a five-hour and fifty-three-point five-set battle. The final set continued until "7:5", creating an open match. Longest time in a Grand Slam final in the 1990s, and the second longest time in a Grand Slam singles match in the Open era—
Second only to the epic marathon match between Isner and Mahut at Wimbledon in 2010.
In the end, Djokovic won this epic game.
However, there are no losers.
When the post-match awards ceremony was held, both players suffered from dehydration and cramps, and even needed support to get on the podium.
This game also proved that tennis is a special sport, it is about wisdom and confrontation, it is about layout and breakthrough, it is also about perseverance and challenge—
When the players feel that the matter is over, but the reality is that they need to ask the opponent if they are willing, and any slack can turn the situation around.
In a tennis match, all players will encounter extreme physical strength. After all, they are not superhuman, especially in the grand slam with the best-of-five-set system. How to allocate physical strength is a tactic and a will at the same time.
It is precisely because of this that the "training match + suicide" training is more precious—
Both the brain and the body are signaling, "The game/training is over", but in fact, it is not, so you have to tense up after a short relaxation.
This is undoubtedly a very, very important exercise and grinding for players, especially at the level of willpower.
Last season, only Macdonald was able to keep up with Gawain in the Bruins. Giron was able to keep up in the early stage, but was gradually pulled away later, mainly because of his slightly inferior acceleration ability.
This season, almost no one in the Bruins team can keep up with McDonald's rhythm. Rapp should be the only player who will not be trapped, so that everyone in the team trembled when they heard this training.
And now?
"McDonald VS Gawain", who will have the last laugh?
Don't talk about Rapp, even Purcell and Di Giulio became nervous. It's been a long time since such a scene.
Macdonald is speeding up.
It can be clearly seen that Macdonald took the lead, just like a marathon, someone suddenly rushed out of the team to lead, disrupting the rhythm of the entire running; at the same time, Gao Wen was not in a hurry, always following his own pace, and adjusted slightly Some speed, to avoid the distance being directly opened.
Even so, McDonald's sudden acceleration still had a slight advantage, and gradually opened up the distance, half a body, one body, and in a blink of an eye he was about three to four steps ahead.
Back and forth, it was obvious that Macdonald's red and black face was covered with sweat, and his breathing was short of breath due to the continuous acceleration, but his eyes still shone brightly, bursting out a burst of blood. Strong willpower.
The audience involuntarily held their breath.
Little by little, Rapp's heart rose from his throat:
Captain, as expected of the captain, even in front of legends, he will not be defeated!
The blood boiled uncontrollably, and he was eager to step onto the court and compete with the legendary figures, and his high fighting spirit was already ignited.
Tread, squeak.
Tread, squeak.
Run, brake; run, accelerate, brake.
Because the distance between round-trip running is not long, the acceleration will always be fully improved, and more attention should be paid to rhythm control, especially speed-up.
Purcell noticed right away that Gawain was accelerating.
Different from MacDonald's absolute speed improvement, Gao Wen shortened the stride while increasing the stride frequency, which also meant that the entire rhythm began to become faster. In terms of absolute speed, the sense of improvement was not obvious, but the running rhythm was consistent. Little by little, this also made Gao Wen's movements start to speed up—
It's like when you press the accelerator key when playing a video, everything looks the same on the surface, but the speed is speeding up.
near.
closer.
Unknowingly, Gao Wen was shortening the distance, and the figures running back and forth drew closer again, and the competition was becoming more and more fierce.
"come on!"
"come on!"
The shouting finally couldn't be controlled anymore, as if they were witnessing the decisive battle of the sprinters, they shouted with enthusiasm along with the crowd.
However, the suspense of the outcome is still uncertain, because Gao Wen and McDonald agreed that they would only run ten round trips, and the distance would not be too long. This also means that there is not much time left for Gao Wen to overtake. Maintain speed, resist Gawain's impact—
Then, McDonald can be the first to cross the line!
Pedal!
Macdonald is accelerating for the second time, but Gawain's entire frequency and rhythm maintain a posture of rising at a constant speed. The whole person runs faster and faster, and it is very relaxed. "Suicide" has become like a leisurely walk in the garden.
Neck and neck!
"come on!"
Overtake a position!
"ah!"
Gao Wen's entire speed has been fully released. On the last turn-back route, he has entered the 100-meter sprint state. The power and speed control of sudden stops and quick turns are perfect, and his light-weight posture makes the players standing next to him They and the students all fell into a state of sluggishness.
Huh!
The audience exclaimed!
Gao Wen has pulled away his position, three positions, five positions, and then, sprinting, hitting the line!
At the last moment, Gao Wen led by nearly half the distance of the court, sprinted over in one go, and slammed into the barbed wire fence around the training ground.
ah!
There was a burst of exclamation from the surrounding onlookers, followed by screams and cheers.
It was said to be half a court, but in fact it was about five meters and six meters away. Macdonald followed closely behind and also finished the sprint, following Gawain's footsteps and rushing towards the barbed wire, panting like a cow.
Huffing and wheezing.
MacDonald looked up at Gawain, with surprise in his eyes, and then he burst into a smile:
Long time no see, sure enough, the Demon King is still the Demon King.
"Ahhh!"
"Ahhh!"
The audience finally came to their senses ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Seeing Gao Wen at such a close distance, they couldn't control their screams and roars anymore, bursting out with overwhelming energy.
Standing by the side of the court, Rapp turned his head to look at Sell in disbelief.
"Is this real? Did this really happen?"
"Isn't this too powerful? Isn't this too sturdy?"
Excited and jumping, joyful and happy, Rapp kept jumping in place, holding his head in his hands, amazed again and again.
Sale and Di Giulio exchanged a glance, a little helpless, but then both laughed, this should be regarded as the standard ending.
"He's still perverted."
"For a while, I didn't know whether I should be glad that the pervert has finally left, or regret that I can't continue to fight side by side with this pervert this season?"
The old players around all burst into laughter, looked at Purcell one after another, and said with their eyes, "I understand you".
