Match Point

Chapter 8: Drop point control

"Forehand VS Forehand"!

This is the strongest weapon duel that is common in tennis matches, because most players have a forehand stronger than a backhand, and the forehand is often a sharp weapon for attacking a city.

Juan-Maritin-del-Potro (Juan-Maritin-del-Potro), the 2009 U.S. Open champion, who is affectionately called "Big Brother" by fans, has a violent forehand that can be called a nuclear bomb.

Macdonald's forehand is flat and fast. Although he is limited by strength and lacks tail strength, the speed of his flight hits like an arrow, and the tennis ball seems to have been suppressed into an oval shape, heading towards the face with a sharp cone. Jumping over, it can be seen that he should use 80% of his strength, and he is a little bit reserved.

Because it is a forehand practice, there is no need to move or predict, just stand still and wait.

But in a tennis match, if you are lazy and really stand still, then losing is the only result.

The adjustment of steps and steps must be carried out all the time. During the tennis flight, keep observing and constantly adjust your steps to find the most comfortable and suitable hitting position and timing.

Tread.

Tread.

Gawain stared at the tennis ball and noticed that McDonald's ball didn't spin, but the ball landed very deep, less than fifty centimeters inside the baseline. This meant that after the tennis ball bottomed out, there was not much room left for Gao Wen to hit the ball.

Either, take a big step back to gain space for hitting the ball, and find the sweet spot; or, just like Gao Wen is now—

Adjust your footsteps, stand firmly on your feet, bend your knees, lower your center of gravity, and then take the first shot at the hitting point below the waist when the tennis ball rebounds and rises rapidly.

boom!

The racket can feel the huge force of the impact of the tennis ball, but the wrist remains stable, and the friction is quickly lifted to ensure that the racket is in full contact with the tennis ball, and the whole body is pushed forward. The power is transmitted from the heel to the racket through the arm, and the shoulder Pressing forward with the arms, make a giant looping swing.

Crack!

The tennis ball rushed out at high speed like an arrow off the string, drew a big parabola, and soared in the wind!

Although Macdonald's body is relatively thin, his upper body muscles are still better than Gawain's, and his forehand strength is also stronger.

Although he didn't use his full strength at this time, the return was deep enough and fast enough, but it still gave Gao Wen room to fight back. When returning the ball, he made full use of his body's strength to superimpose, and then he could see the tennis ball spinning at high speed, heading towards the sideline like a shooting star. The dead end where it meets the bottom line falls rapidly.

Spin!

bounce!

Gawain's return ball obviously adds more spin, not only aiming at the dead corner, but also the bounce of the tennis ball after landing will be higher - for McDonald's who suffers from height, if the ball is hit above the shoulder, then the return The quality of the ball has definitely improved, and the whole catch movement is awkward.

With one return, McDonald could clearly feel the improvement in the quality of Gao Wen's return.

However, he was not in a hurry, adjusted small steps continuously, stretched his footsteps beyond the doubles line, and then stepped up to complete the interception on the line where the tennis ball continued to rebound and rise, grabbed the ball at the position of his chest, and then —

One step up! A dash forward!

Macdonald "covered" the tennis ball that hadn't fully bounced, and skillfully used the power of the incoming ball to return the ball with force.

boom!

The tennis ball hit back at a faster and stronger speed. Just now, Gao Wen deliberately used friction to pull out a parabola, flying high over the net; but now Macdonald pressed down directly again, and the tennis ball almost flew towards the net, like a bird. Like a naughty rabbit, he ran towards Gao Wen's chest.

Gao Wen could clearly feel that the space for returning the ball has been further compressed, and the strength and speed of the incoming ball have also been further enhanced. Although he tried to keep up with McDonald's rhythm, he also returned the tennis ball at a high speed, but at this stage, The all-round gap in strength still put Gao Wen at a disadvantage.

Back and forth.

Back and forth.

It was also a forehand duel, but the gap was gradually widening. With the increase of back and forth, McDonald became more and more comfortable and relaxed, and the quality of the ball returned remained at a high level; Gao Wen's returned the ball continued. The slide, the depth of the return, the bounce, the power and the spin, it's all down.

As a result, Gao Wen's return became shallower and shallower, and McDonald's footsteps were also slowly approaching the bottom line.

If it was an official match, MacDonald would have already started to kill him, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com But now it is forehand practice, so he is constantly adjusting and persevering, and there is no fatal blow.

Gao Wen realized that this was not going to work. After the gap between advantages and disadvantages gradually widened, it could not be reversed in the end.

He has to make a change.

Since head-to-head confrontation with strength is not enough, we can only start with rotation.

Eyes fixed on McDonald's return, which this time was a little less deep, with room for a stride from the baseline.

Chance!

Gawain realized it immediately. He stomped on the ground suddenly, stepped up vertically, and at the same time pulled his body horizontally outwards. He deliberately pulled his body out a little, and then shot a little earlier. After the tennis ball rebounded, the height just passed his waist At the moment, the right hand has already stepped forward to hit the ball.

He didn’t use his full strength, but a flattering skateboard shot, fully feeling the process of the tennis ball crossing the entire racket net line, enough friction to exert enough rotation, and the force exerted by McDonald on the tennis ball, so that Gao Wen could clearly feel He felt the violent trembling of the racket and the threading, but at this time it became Gao Wen's help. Instead, he took advantage of the reaction force of these forces to apply to the tennis ball.

Then, with a flick of the wrist—

Whoosh!

The flight trajectory of the tennis ball has changed slightly.

Previously, the ball was always returned towards the area close to the baseline, but now it is closer to the tee box, and the shallower landing point brings out a wider angle.

Hula la!

The tennis ball seems to have no power, but its speed has been raised to a higher level. It flies lightly with all its strength, and its refraction angle directly expands from 30 degrees to 60 degrees. After landing, it flies towards the side audience stands.

A change in the depth of the drop point can reverse the situation in an instant!
