"Match Point(

Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.

Djokovic is slapping the ball, one after another, the long and endless sound of slapping the ball echoes on the court, and no other sound can be noticed, so the sound of slapping the ball hits the heart heavily, suffocating .

Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.

Djokovic remained unmoved and concentrated on shooting the ball, as if all his energy had been immersed in shooting the ball.

It can be seen from this small detail that Djokovic is a little tight. It is precisely because of nervousness that the number of shots has increased significantly.

The scoreboard shows, "6:5", "40:40".

That is, an equal split.

But the problem is that this is Djokovic's serve, "40:15", he won two consecutive match points, but in the end he was caught up by Gao Wen with the help of God to tie the game.

As a result, the situation became heated up. Is the next point a match point or a break point?

As expected, the second set was a stalemate.

It was Gao Wen who served first.

In the first serve game, Djokovic showed a posture of chasing after the victory, aggressively launched a continuous attack, and successfully forced a break point again.

At the critical moment, Gao Wen forced Djokovic's forehand back to the net with a serve that squeezed the forehand from close quarters, and saved the break point by directly scoring with the serve.

Djokovic is very, very dissatisfied with his performance. Although it is really difficult to serve close-up, Djokovic will not be unable to hit the ball over the net. The main reason is that Gao Wen's serve weakened, which directly caused Djokovic to Covic was not able to borrow strength when he couldn't exert strength himself

This led to getting off the net.

Djokovic once again yelled at his player box to vent, wasting so many opportunities in this game is definitely not the situation he expected.

This point successfully boosted Gao Wen's morale, proving that his calculation and layout were correct. Next, he won another two points in a row, reversed the disadvantage and completed the guarantee and gained a firm foothold.

Gao Wen Baofa.

Djokovic holds the serve.

Gao Wen Baofa.

Djokovic holds the serve.

The situation of you coming and going, not giving an inch, has never been able to widen the gap, and the stalemate and entanglement in the second set took on a different look.

On the one hand, it is the improvement of Gao Wen's concentration; on the other hand, it is the decline of Djokovic's concentration. Between the staggered, the competition for key points seems to have regained its balance. Both players got break points but All missed, with Djokovic missing six and Gawain two.

"5:5", stalemate all the way to the end of the game, and then, the break finally came.

In Gawain's serve, Djokovic hit two unbelievable fairy shots in a row, and at the same time exerted strong pressure to make a mistake by Gawain. In the end, Djokovic seized the second set of the second set. With eight break points, he took the lead in breaking serve and swaggered into serving to win the game.

And then, this moment.

Between the second set and the first set, is there any difference?

In fact, from a tactical point of view, there has been no earth-shaking change. Djokovic is still trying to suppress Gawain's backhand, while Gawain is always trying to break through Djokovic's forehand. always.

But the difference in details exists objectively. In the final analysis, it is the subtle changes in physical fitness and mental will. It is only a difference in the handling of a few key points, which finally keeps the score at a stalemate. The two players entangled all the way to the end of the game.

In addition, Gao Wen also discovered a detail, to be precise, it should confirm an inference of Sampras:

Gao Wen has played for two consecutive weeks, and reached back-to-back finals in Valencia and Paris. The entire confrontation intensity and game adaptation have reached the best; however, Djokovic is not the case.

An objective fact that every professional player must face is: the game needs to find the state.

Including your own state, batting feel, game atmosphere, etc., the most important thing is a sense of tension in the game, a pressure that cannot be felt through daily training

That is the intensity of the game.

Even top players like the Big Four also need to adapt to time.

After Djokovic was in Shanghai, he hung up the exemption card and alienated the field. After arriving in Paris, he played a total of four games, but all of them were not challenged, except for one against Monfils. Except for the tie-break, all other games were easily won.

Not a single game was lost.

From a positive point of view, Djokovic is indeed hot and unstoppable.

From a negative point of view, Djokovic has not withstood the test of hard battles. After a long battle, it is difficult to mobilize his ultimate state at critical moments.

To put it simply, it is the difference in the intensity of the battle.

The more top players, the more severe challenges they have to go through before they can force their best performance step by step. Otherwise, facing ordinary opponents, they may be able to easily win with only five or seven successes. This is one of the reasons why the competition gets more exciting as it enters the second half.

Sampras clearly knows how strong Djokovic's personal ability is, and after the upset loss at the US Open, he came prepared this time, and the game is bound to be very, very difficult.

Therefore, Sampras' strategy for Gao Wen is to increase the difficulty of the game as much as possible and prolong the round of the game as much as possible.

With the passage of time, Djokovic, who has not faced a fierce battle this week, will inevitably fluctuate in his batting ability. There should be no problem on the defensive end, but the offensive power will inevitably decline. As long as he can withstand Djokovic's strength If there is a strong impact, then Gao Wen will be able to find opportunities to launch a counterattack~www.mtlnovel.com~ From the context of the first set to the second set, it can be seen that Djokovic's ability to grasp key points is indeed slowing down. There was a slight decline, and the quality of the entire shot also fluctuated.

This also proves Sampras' guess, and to some extent also proves the correctness of the entire tactical strategy.

However, the reason why Djokovic is Djokovic is because of his strong control, even standing on the edge of a cliff, he still has a tenacity, like a tumbler, who is about to fall, but Always able to reset unless encountering a destructive force.

In the eleventh game, Gao Wen's own serve was a little impatient, but Djokovic seized the opportunity and made a fatal break.

Then, the match point appeared, and there were two consecutive ones.

But Gao Wen's advantage is that he is calm enough, tenacious enough, and strong enough. He also maintains a normal mind in the face of the match point. Instead, he puts the pressure on Djokovic, so that the world's number one batting is slightly conservative. , Gao Wen immediately seized the opportunity and completed incredible shots for two consecutive points, catching up to a tie.

Djokovic is also flesh and blood, he also has his own emotions, he will be irritable, nervous and make mistakes. Now, the game has come to a critical moment.

Snapped. Snapped. Snapped.

Fourteen strokes.

Djokovic shot the ball fourteen times, then raised his head, glanced at Gao Wen, and finally prepared to serve.

District 1, inner corner.

boom!

As soon as Gao Wen kicked his legs, he rushed out. The conditioned reflex was very quick, but when the racket hit the tennis ball, he immediately realized that something was wrong:

Take a shot.

At the critical moment, Djokovic copied Gao Wen's serve on the break point in the first serve game of the second set, breaking the balance by reducing force.
