Chapter 593 Test Objects
backslash!
Return the ball!
Johansen tried to gain more advantage for himself by attacking the forehand when he had the advantage of serving.

However, Gao Wen is still superior!
Indeed, after receiving the serve, Gao Wen was moving towards the forehand to defend, but he immediately noticed that when Johnson was about to hit the forehand sideways, he had already stopped and turned quickly to complete the movement——

Because Johansen's body center of gravity has already leaked his hitting intention in advance, there is no other possibility except for the backslash.

Small steps, and then small steps.

Gao Wen used a series of dazzling footsteps to adjust, and he was in place ahead of time. He even had time to adjust his center of gravity on the spot. He backhanded his hands and made the lead action early, and quickly glanced at Johansen out of the corner of his eye.

Kick off!Turn!
But at the moment of the shot, he deliberately paused for a moment, making full use of the advantages he gained from predicting and moving in advance, delaying the shot——

The last point was to grab the rhythm; this point is to delay the rhythm.

Seeing that Johansen's footsteps had already started, and he quickly moved laterally to cover the gap in the straight line, Gao Wen's swinging motion finally made a move. The outward force of his wrist was slightly changed into an inward push, and the entire closing motion also changed, fully completed A looped circle.

then!

A straight line shot becomes a diagonal line.

Of course, facing Johnson’s sideways forehand impact, changing the direction of the shot before the shot is very, very risky. Few players will do this, because if you don’t pay attention, you may shoot yourself in the foot. Instead, it sends an error by itself.

But this time, Gao Wen was very clever.

He didn't exert all his force, but just a simple tap; moreover, he deliberately pulled the slash light and thin, and when he gave up the initiative to exert force, all the muscle control was concentrated on the details of the wrist, kicking and spinning The movements of the body are extremely full, and most importantly, the consciousness is very clear and resolute.

Whoosh.

Gao Wen's return ball landed within Johansen's service area and continued to bounce out, showing a strong external spin.

It is precisely because Gao Wen did not forcibly break his swing trajectory, used softness to overcome rigidity, and used cleverness to win, the whole shot was not as risky as imagined.

At this time, even if Johansen's prediction is successful and the direction of movement is correct, it is estimated that it will be difficult to catch up. What's more, Johansen's footsteps are rushing towards the other half.

Score!Flowing clouds and flowing water, easy and freehand!

Familiar scene, familiar ending, Johansen was still running, and still turned his head to look to the other side of the court, his face full of confusion:

How did Gao Wen do it?
This time, Johansen's serve and the first shot were all in order, completely according to his expectations, but why did he lose this point in a blink of an eye; and Gao Wen's shot looked so easy and simple, without any effort or effort. Take a risk, what's going on?

"Competition, high."

After winning three consecutive points, Gao Wen broke Johansen's serve for the first time in the game and ushered in a "2:3" lead.

However, Gawain still did not clenched his fists in celebration.

In his line of sight, Johansen could see that Gao Wen just jumped lightly on the spot and looked at where he hit the ball. Because of the distance, he couldn't see his expression clearly, but his relaxed body language could still be easily felt. Gao Wen was full of confidence, which made Johansen a little depressed——

Why not make a fist?
Anyone who has watched Gao Wen's game at the US Open should be deeply impressed by Gao Wen's playing style. Clenching his fists to celebrate and boost morale is undoubtedly the most exciting moment. Every time he wins a key match, Gao Wen is full of passion and enthusiasm The way of celebration can always detonate the atmosphere of the stadium.

But just now, Gao Wen hit consecutive good shots, but why didn't he make a fist?

Isn't a break worth celebrating?Or is the confrontation not intense enough?Because he didn't bring enough threat and impact to force Gao Wen to be at his best?
"why why why".

My mind is full of question marks.

However, Johansen would never ask Gao Wen, it would be too embarrassing, his only thought now is that he should do his best to push Gao Wen to the extreme, then the time to make a fist should come, right?

It is precisely because of this that Johansen's performance in the following games has been significantly improved, the quality of the forehand and backhand shots is fuller and more sufficient, the pressure and impact of the entire confrontation are better, and the defensive rate is in place Also improved, each time moving with gritted teeth.

On the other side of the court, Gao Wen was also full of question marks:

Is this Johnson Popeye?Eat a bucket of spinach between rounds, and then improve your state?
However, compared to Popeye, there is a better explanation, that is, just after a break, Johansen realized that the first set was in danger, so he improved his state in time to launch a counterattack; naturally, Gao Wen also needed to improve his state, Stand firm and keep your advantage.

In fact, Gao Wen didn't clenched his fists to celebrate, not because it was too easy and simple, but because his attention was all focused on the layout and calculation.

The fifth and sixth rounds, that is, the middle of the first set, are still the stage of strategic deployment and initial results. Gao Wen needs to collect data and pave the way for the follow-up games. Therefore, the brain is always running, scoring and losing. There is no need to get too excited.

Gradually, Gao Wen has figured out the correct way to score, and the game against Johnson has gradually become clear——

Rhythm, this is the core.

Why Gao Wen has been trying different methods in the receiving and receiving link, Nadal and Federer for a while, just like Gao Wen constantly changing the arrangement and combination of serving in his own serving game, in the final analysis, he is disrupting the rhythm and breaking the law. Changes are brewing at the ball.

Trying this way will definitely not work every time. Johansen's basic serving skills are really solid, and Gao Wen is not a robot. He can perfectly achieve the effect he wants every time he receives the serve, so he must face some risks, but the rewards are rich. Yes, because Johansen has never been able to hit the ball in his comfort zone.

Johansen has been trying to get into his own rhythm, but Gawain refuses to give him a chance, from the first touch of the ball to the follow-up layout:

Occasionally use the topspin to press the bottom line deep area to form a squeeze, and occasionally use the backspin to complete the transition to change the rhythm;

On top of that, the batting line is always changing --

The last time the backhand challenged a straight line, then this time it was a small slash; the last time the forehand was slashed, then this time it was a straight line.Even at the risk of failing to change the line, or going out of bounds or off the net, the tactic of enriching the arrangement and combination of hitting lines has never wavered.

Moreover, Gao Wen gave up the risky shot in pursuit of the ultimate placement, but fully mobilized Johansen by changing the priority of the shot.

This happens to be Johansen's least favorite way to play.

Once Gao Wen completes the layout, the last shot to score the ball can be easily completed without risk!
