This offseason is a very precious time for Gao Wen.

Although Sampras has served as his coach since September, the schedule in September and October is really too intensive. It was not until the offseason that they had time to systematically sort out some tactics, technical adjustments, etc.

It is precisely because of this that the joining of Andre Agassi was very timely. The collision of inspiration between the two most powerful contenders for the best in history opened the door to a whole new world for Gao Wen.

For a long, long time, Gao Wen thought that he had a system, and there was no need to worry about technical and tactical training, but Agassi and Sampras told Gao Wen with practical actions:

The world of tennis is broad and profound.

From the serving action to the serve receiving tactics to the use of the forehand, etc., technical movements, tactical thinking, etc. need to be adjusted in detail. This is much more complicated and difficult than gym training. It is not enough to spend time on the training ground. It takes energy, it takes commitment, it takes the help of the brain.

But now, all these adjustments and changes need to be tested and polished through the actual competition. Only in this way can they gradually become their own skills and become an important part of their own competition.

Generally speaking, technical adjustment is very painful, because what is changed is one's own game habits and combat style, and it often takes a period of pain.

It is against this background that the value of the Doha doubles competition becomes more prominent:

Opportunities to partner with top players like Nadal are rare, and this also made Gao Wen more daring to take risks and at the same time more daring to make shots.

Before going to Melbourne to set foot on the Australian Open, Gao Wen needs more court time to adapt to the new self.

For Doha, Gao Wen did not set any performance goals, the only goal is to stay as long as possible on the field and polish himself.

Obviously, things couldn't have been more perfect with Nadal in doubles.

Someone once said that in tennis, singles and doubles can be said to be two categories, and the intensity and quality are not at the same level.

It is true that a doubles match requires tacit understanding and cooperation. The experts who have been focusing on doubles for many years are absolutely outstanding, and their interpretation of the game has reached a higher level; but if two singles players join forces to participate in a doubles match, the chances of winning are always higher. party.

I say this not because I look down on the strength of doubles experts, but because of two reasons:

First, singles players have stronger personal comprehensive strength; second, singles players also have unique features in tactical interpretation and use of court space.

Of course, nothing is absolute. This is just a theoretical analysis on paper. As for the specifics, you still need to go to the court to compete with real swords and guns in order to be able to tell the winner.

However, the game that is being staged in front of us can prove this "theory" to some extent

The four players who mainly focus on singles teamed up to play doubles. In the confrontation between you and me, the gap was gradually widened, and the strength of singles gradually became prominent.

The combination of Gawain and Nadal in one set gradually found its magic in the second set:

The collision of personal strength and tacit cooperation produced sparks!

"2:1".

At the beginning of the second set, both opponents secured their serve. Gawain and Nadal, who served first, took the lead in the game, and then got a break point again in Burelli's serve.

Moreover, it was three in a row.

"0:40".

Facing consecutive break points, there was no way to retreat, and Burelli and Mayer also played more aggressively and proactively.

First, he squeezed Gawain's return serve through a close serve, and then relied on Mayer's net grabbing to form a frontcourt pressure, and then Burley went to the net.

One left and one right, Burley and Mayer firmly grasped the advantage in front of the net, playing tennis as badminton, and the whole rhythm was directly raised to a new level, pressing the two opponents to the bottom line and breathless.

Gao Wen and Nadal have been trying to break through the net, but the whole round of the ball is too fast, the room for adjustment is very limited, and the gap between advantages and disadvantages is getting wider and wider, and the two are very passive.

However, that doesn't mean the two players are sitting still

Holding three consecutive break points, it also means that they have "wasted" capital, even if they lose this point, it doesn't matter, so they should give it a go.

In this regard, Gao Wen and Nadal are the same, and they will never hesitate when they should make a move.

Strong topspin!

Nadal came first, disrupting the rhythm of Mayer's frontcourt volley; followed by Gawain, who hit Burley's backhand strongly.

Burelli also sensed the danger. The line of defense between him and Mayer was loosening in the continuous strong rotation of the impact, so he made a change.

One retreated, the other turned sideways, sliced with a backhand, did not block back, but sliced a small ball, with a strong external spin, and flung it out of the field after landing:

Short and urgent, light and shallow.

Clearly, Burley saw danger.

Gao Wen and Nadal's footsteps were suppressed near the bottom line, but both of them were relying on their personal abilities to launch a fierce attack, trying to break the game head-on.

But Burelli also saw an opportunity.

He chose to use a small ball in front of the net to break the combination of the two players, fully utilizing the entire court, and then the bottom-line alliance between Gawain and Nadal collapsed.

Well!

At this moment, it can be felt that Nadal is very keen on capturing fighter planes, and as soon as he kicks his feet, his body has already rushed forward.

Burelli's cutting is very good. Not only is the force unloaded cleanly, but also the side spin is very good, causing Nadal's footsteps to leave the doubles area directly.

Tread Tread.

Nadal glided forward on Lingbo microsteps, the whole person has completely entered the sidelines, and his feet continued to run along the diagonal line outside the doubles line.

ah!

Seeing that the tennis ball was about to hit the ground, almost before two jumps, Nadal leaned out and used a one-handed backhand to lightly pick everything

The magic hour is here.

Not only the spectators, but even the three players standing on the court followed the trajectory of the tennis ball and watched intently.

The tennis ball went around the post and cut a light and thin diagonal line. The super spin came back from the outside, and the "outside-in" flight curve completely bypassed the positions of Burley and Mayer~www.mtlnovel .com~ With a thunderous gesture, he fell into the bottom line corner of the opposite half.

Inbound!

Burley: Stunned.

Mayer: Blink.

Gao Wen's heart also stopped beating, just for a moment, and then the joy and happiness exploded like this. The magic of tennis was vividly displayed, and he subconsciously raised his hands high, without making any sound, just looking at the tennis ball like this Drop point, eyes full of admiration.

Wow!

The whole audience was stunned: Nadal is completing the "Nadal moment" again, even if he saw it up close, it is still hard to believe his eyes.

So, who can talk about how all that happened just now?

Is there a video playback function on the scene, so that everyone can enjoy the ball again before the jaw is dislocated?

By the way, remember to prepare popcorn before replaying.
