章 301: See through
Federer finally won the game with a strong serve. The score in the first set still left Federer temporarily behind. He had to score a break before he could even score.
But with Zhang Guan's service level, Federer's break would not be easy. Of course, Zhang Guan is as good as Federer's.
Both are top athletes. They are technically impeccable. According to the advantages of tennis players, if the opponent does not make mistakes, it is almost impossible to break. Especially in the ordinary game, the server has to serve at least four times to win the next game, so the occasional one or two mistakes of the server have little effect on keeping his service, and even if the receiver can see every mistake made by an opponent it is not necessarily a success.
4-2, 4-3, 5-3, this is the result of the next three games of the two sides, Zhang Guan and Federer have successfully saved their serve, also did not break the other's serve in terms of trends, this victory will be Zhang Guan.
Federer's serve in the ninth game between the two sides.
For Federer, it is necessary to keep this round. Only after holding this round, and then taking a break in the next round, will it be possible to continue this game.
Zhang Guan looked at Federer. He saw a kind of tenacity in Federer's eyes. Zhang Guan felt that Federer had confidence in his serve.
Zhang Guan thought about it, he felt that it was really difficult to break, so he decided to give up this game strategically and play the next serve with all his strength.
Federer under pressure did show bravery, sending two consecutive ACE balls from the start, catching Zhang Guan a little off guard. Then Federer became more and more courageous in battle. The powerful forehand was brought into play without giving any breathing opportunities. He took two points and gave Zhang Guan a love-game.
The score came to 5-4. As long as Zhang Guan wins the serve, he still could win the game.
Federer has a habit. If the tenth game is the opponent's serve, he will change to a new racket. The referee knows this habit of Federer so he allowed them to drink some water or wipe sweat.
Federer's breathing was a little quick. The storm-like attack of the last round also consumed a lot of physical energy for Federer. If he did not feel the pressure, Federer would not carry out such a high-intensity attack.
Federer changed a new racket and stood on the court again, waiting for Zhang Guan to serve.
Zhang Guan tossed the ball and made a serve.
In the auditorium, Sharapova's eyes widened for the first time, "This action is larger than usual. Does Zhang Guan want to try that kind of service again?"
The idea had just flashed through Sharapova's mind. Zhang Guan had already waved his racket, and then tennis had fallen to Federer's half.
"It's fast!" Federer thought about it, almost an instinctive swing of the body, but this beat was empty.
"It's empty!" Federer realized that the speed of the ball was too fast, and his physical response did not keep up with the speed of the ball. Federer immediately looked at the display on the sidelines, which showed that the speed of the ball reached 230 kilometers per hour!
"Ball at 230 kilometers per hour!" Federer took a breath. In the previous game between Zhang Guan and Gonzalez, Federer had sighed at a speed of more than 230 kilometers per hour. At that time, Federer beside the TV also sighed, but now when he is facing such a fast serve, Federer only realized that at this time, unless the speed of the ball is just in front of your racket, it will never be received.
"Does Zhang Guan want to fight this game with all his strength? Indeed, as long as he wins this game, he can win the game." Federer shook his head slightly, and he suddenly blamed himself.
"It's all my fault. I was too slow to enter the game. Zhang Guan broke the first game. If I had this state at the beginning of the game, the winner of this set might be me. At least I can hit the tie-break! I will never be as passive starting from now."
Federer took a deep breath. He quickly adjusted his mind and prepared to receive the second point. Federer did not intend to give up.
"Go!" Zhang Guan shouted as the tennis ball had landed, and then popped out of bounds.
"OUT!" The line referee's voice only sounded after a second. It can be seen that the line referee was also a little hesitant. He only called out "OUT" after careful consideration.
Federer immediately looked at Zhang Guan. He wanted to know whether or not Zhang Guan would challenge Hawk-Eye. Federer believed Zhang Guan's judgment more than the lineman's eyes.
Zhang Guan did not challenge, he took out the tennis ball, ready to serve the second ball, which made Federer a little relieved.
"It looks like it's an out-of-bounds ball." Federer bowed and prepared to catch the ball.
Tennis flew, Zhang Guan's second serve is still very strong, but it is much slower than the first ball. With Federer's ability, although the catch is a bit rushed, he has successfully made a beautiful recieve.
"I left a flaw in the forehand, Zhang Guan will attack my forehand. Then I will directly change yo my forehand to attack his backhand!" Federer thought of doing it. When he received the ball again, he deliberately revealed a flaw.
"Federer's forehand has a flaw!" The opposite Zhang Guan immediately noticed this, he attacked with a strong blow, that is, at the moment when Zhang Guan swung, Federer's body suddenly changed direction and ran towards the point of the tennis ball.
Almost at this moment, Zhang Guan an idea immediately flashed in his mind, "The next ball will force the line to attack my backhand!"
This is Federer's experience. In reality, Federer is preparing to do so.
Federer saw an emergency stop, his body swayed, and his forehand made a large arc. The tennis ball had completed the sideline and flew directly to Zhang Guan's backhand.
"Successful!" Federer turned to look around but found that Zhang Guan had stopped on the route of receiving the ball, and then Zhang Guan was also in a big arc but began to attack Federer's backhand.
"What? He saw through me again!" Federer was caught a little off guard. He couldn't think about it carefully but ran quickly to catch the ball.
"The distance is too far, I can only cut the ball with my backhand!" Federer backhanded the ball across the net, but the quality of the ball wasn't good.
Federer's forehand chopping is arguably the strongest among professional athletes, but he rarely uses backhand chopping because he is a one-handed backhand player. Federer's backhand chopping is not as powerful as a forehand, even if he can cut out a very high-speed spin, but the speed of the ball cannot be guaranteed.
This ball has a lot of spins, but the speed is not fast, and Zhang Guan is a fast-moving player, which means that Zhang Guan can catch the ball more comfortably.
Seeing the direction of Zhang Guan's return to the ball, Federer has realized that for this ball, it will definitely be returned by Zhang Guan to the full-field run, and then a chance will be given by Zhang Guan to give a fatal blow. However, Federer did not give up, he will not make mistakes in gambling with Zhang Guan.
However, Federer was still disappointed. After Zhang Guan's three consecutive strong attacks, Federer's defense disintegrated. Zhang Guan scored another point and the score came to 30-0.
"Why is it like this? This is the sixth time!" Federer frowned, "This is now in the tenth game, this is the sixth time Zhang Guan saw my intention, and this time I did not use a regular play, I intentionally set a trap, and he also saw through it. Just now, except for me, no one in this world would think that I would change the line. How does he know my thoughts?"
