MTL - Match Point-Chapter 1350 Should not be missed

The strong collisions of you coming and going, the offensive and defensive transitions of wide open and close, the sticky fights of the needles, the wonderful rounds emerge one after another, which is very addictive. The audience is like a hedgehog stuffed in the chair. Unable to sit still, they stood up one after another every now and then—

This game was scheduled for the second game at the Philippe Chatier Stadium.

The venue arrangement, this is a very interesting thing.

Today, Gawain entered the center court; Nadal and Federer were both arranged on the Susan Lenglen Court, and Wawrinka was simply squeezed to Court No. 5, and even the third largest Court No. 1 could not enter , The treatment is getting worse and worse, triggering heated discussions among tennis reporters.

So, who was the other player who entered the Philippe Chatier stadium and was in charge of the big axis all day?

Tsonga.

French darling.

It can be seen from here that the schedule of the French Open has only one central idea:

The host player has priority, and all other players stand aside and take turns one by one, including Federer and Nadal, who have no privileges.

Federer and Nadal had already entered the center court in the first round before, so today it was Gao Wen's turn to appear.

It's that simple.

It's no wonder that when adapting to the field before the game, Sampras already had the foresight. Philippe Chatier and Susan Lengren have arranged training, and so have all other top players, because they all know , at Roland Garros, no one is destined to be on the center court all the time.

Everything needs to be prepared in advance.

In any case, the match between Gawain and Tim entered the Philippe-Chatier Stadium. It can still be seen from the side that the French Open and the ATP are also full of expectations for this youth storm match; the tournament organizing committee is not giving face to the "second seed" , but to give face to the "Leader of the Challenger Alliance".

Then-

ah!

Ahhh!

Earth-shattering shouts erupted from the Philippe Chatier Stadium, spreading across the court, even spreading towards the entire Roland-Garros.

Because, just now, with Gao Wen once again securing serve, the outcome of the third set "Tianwangshan" will be decided again through a tie-break.

Are you nervous?

Stimulate or not?

The scorching sun was in the sky, and the scorching air was almost suffocating. The attendance rate of Philippe Chatier's spectator stands was not high, just over 50%.

At this moment, it can be seen that the box office appeal of players other than the host country is indeed slightly inferior. In addition, Tim, who is Gao Wen's opponent, is far less famous in the new generation than Raonic. And Dimitrov, naturally, the enthusiasm of the fans is also slightly less.

What's more, the sun at two o'clock in the afternoon is the most vicious and fiery moment, which didn't help. A small number of spectators who had already entered the stadium left to avoid the ravages of the sun. The spectator stands bathed in the sun are indeed sparsely populated.

However, fans who are watching the game at this moment are willing to guarantee with confidence:

Missing this game is everyone's loss.

"6:6".

Tie-break.

So far, Tim has demonstrated his talent and ability to the fullest, and has infiltrated his understanding and interpretation of clay into the game. Although he is still a little young and his selection of key shots is open to question, his strength is beyond doubt. , The confrontation is amazing to watch. ....

On the other hand, Gao Wen once again showed his deep understanding of tennis on the clay court, which he is not good at, and his courage as a Grand Slam champion. Falling down the wind, the collision between you and me can be called sparks.

Mutual exchange.

Sword light and sword shadow.

The high-level and exciting matchups in the first two sets were already suffocating. The third set was undoubtedly a watershed in Tianwangshan.

The Stade Philippe Chartier has gone completely mad.

This time, Gao Wen served first.

a district.

Taking a deep breath, Gawain glanced at Tim's position—

In 2015, Tim's characteristics were not so obvious, and he mainly relied on his personal ability to fight, so there were not many changes at the tactical level, which can be seen from the position of receiving and serving.

In the next few years, Tim’s return position on clay will completely inherit Nadal’s mantle. He may often stand four meters or even five meters away from the bottom line, pursuing the safety of returning the serve. Let the round ball stalemate first, and then pass He spins his shots and looks for opportunities to attack.

Now, Tim's position is very standard, generally speaking, it is in the range of one to two meters behind the baseline, probably because the second serve is slightly forward.

In other words, what Tim pursues is the aggressiveness of receiving the serve. From the first touch of the serve, he tries to create pressure on the opponent.

This tactic worked well in the first two games, after all, Gao Wen was not a cannonball.

Although he modified his serve during the offseason last year to make more use of his height advantage to create powerful serve, but now in the clay court season, strength and speed are swallowed up by the court, and the power of serve will inevitably be weakened again, forcing Gao Wen to adjust his serve. tactical arrangement.

In fact, Tim's game tactical intention is very clear. From the beginning of receiving the serve, he has continuously put pressure on Gao Wen, trying to play more aggressively in Gao Wen's serve. It is clear that Tim is putting himself in a challenging position. In the position of the leader, be prepared to forcefully attack Gao Wen.

As for the result—

Gains and losses.

Especially the third set.

On the one hand, after warming up and fully entering the state, the whole attack is more handy; but on the other hand, physical and energy consumption is objectively present, sometimes it is difficult for the body to keep up with the rotation speed of the brain, and it is easy to miss the shot when receiving the serve point, but an error occurred.

In any case, now they are in the tie-break, which means that in the game of offensive and defensive transitions, the two players are still facing each other, and some hitting choices require the brain to turn faster and faster.

In Gao Wen's view, the outcome of the third set is very important, very, very important~www.novelbuddy.com~ It may even determine the trend of the whole game, but he still takes a longer-term and more comprehensive view. After all, even if he loses the third set There is still a fourth set and a fifth set to follow, so there is still room for victory or defeat.

Therefore, the tie-break in the third set, and more importantly, the competition for rhythm control, laid the foundation for the subsequent confrontation.

If all the physical energy reserves were released in the third set tie-break regardless, then the fourth set might also be lost in a hurry.

Somewhat surprisingly—

Tim has been trying to increase the rhythm and use offense to dominate the game; while Gao Wen has been trying to slow down the rhythm and use control to guide the game.

This kind of confrontation and competition will continue in the tie-break, and it will become more intense and closer; at the same time, because of the special competition system of the tie-break, hidden uncertain variables may also gradually become fierce with the change of the score. The three-set victory is indeed still a big unknown.

Absolutely not to be missed. .
