Kick off! take off! high pressure!
Meyer soared into the air, with a slightly awkward movement, and lightly flicked her forehand to the outside, completing a high-pressure shot with ingenuity.
boom!
The tennis ball landed in the teeing area of Gao Wen's half court. It was shallow and high, thin and biased, and then the tennis ball flew towards the audience stands.
"Set, Mayer."
ah!
Mayer clenched her fists tightly, jumped up high, turned around after landing, clenched her hands into fists, and roared angrily while watching the audience stands.
Ahhh!
The endless emotions burst out like this, as if he was using body language to vent his depression and aggrieved:
Playing away games is no easy task.
All the audience supported the home players overwhelmingly, and in an instant, there was an illusion that the whole world was standing against them, and only they were fighting alone; moreover, the opponents continued to exert pressure, and it was obvious that they broke serve twice and took the lead. Every time it was broken quickly, the overwhelming pressure kept the nerves tense all the time, as if it might break at any time.
until now.
ah!
Mayer roared with red eyes, over and over, over and over again, the veins bursting from clenched fists showed the continuous blowout energy in the body.
Then, he turned around again and looked at Gao Wen on the other side of the field, his eyes were shining with the belief that he must win—
Grand Slam champion?
He came here on a special trip today to upset the crowd!
At this moment, Gao Wen didn't notice Mayer's eyes at all, he was looking up at the sky, he needed to be quiet.
In the first tie-break, Mayer easily won with a small score "7:2".
In the tie-break, the error tolerance rate was low, mistakes and fluctuations were magnified, Gao Wen's unstable state was exposed, and Mayer's steady and solid performance quickly opened up the point difference, presenting a completely different situation from the stalemate in the first set. Without encountering too many waves, the first set victory was already in the pocket.
The situation is not good.
"...On the whole, the shortcomings of long-term lack of battle and lack of training can still be easily seen."
In the studio, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao are still commenting together. This is also a conscious continuation of CCTV's five sets of partners, awakening the audience's memory of the US Open.
It is precisely because they have witnessed history with their own eyes, and that period of history is not far away from now, that the two professional commentators can tell Gao Wen's state at a glance.
"After winning the U.S. Open, Gao Wen was exposed to the spotlight overnight, and he has been lacking in systematic training. He needs to slowly adjust from the batter to the physical reserve and so on, and regain his familiarity bit by bit. Therefore, the first round of returning to the court is always particularly difficult."
The only difference is that veterans with rich experience in the game naturally have better adjustment ability; young players who are fledgling lack control ability, and the ups and downs are more obvious.
"Judging from the process of the first set, Gao Wen is still adjusting and adapting. He came back from the two lagging behind, proving his strength; but the error control in the tie-break was not very effective, and he was unforced. Mistakes ruined the efforts of the first set, which is obviously not the game state that Gao Wen is used to."
"However, we should still see the positive side. Gao Wen has been thinking of ways, and his mind is always turning. This means that even after being away from the training ground for so long, the fighting spirit in his bones is still there. So, let's take a look at it next. Let's see Gao Wen's performance in the second set."
To be honest, even though Gao Wen lost the first set first, Zhan Jun was not worried. To be more precise, they were not concerned about the outcome of a game, but the state of Gao Wen shown in this game. The impact of the Asian season —
After ascending to the top of the Grand Slam champion, the aura of the dark horse has faded, whether Gao Wen still has the vigor to hit the victory and the championship, especially in the case that he has become an obvious target for everyone, how to get back to the state of the game, this is the question. It is the key to a continuous career.
Before and after winning a Grand Slam, the state of the game and the state of competition are actually two different things.
The most notable case does not need to be too far back, and Djokovic is a ready-made example.
In 2008, at the Australian Open, Djokovic won the championship with an absolutely strong performance, becoming the fourth youngest Australian Open champion in history. Possibly breaking the dominance of Federer and Nadal.
However, after that, Djokovic's career hit a bottleneck—
From the French Open in 2008 to the US Open in 2010, for eleven consecutive Grand Slams, Djokovic has not been able to make a further breakthrough.
Although in terms of world rankings, Masters record, annual performance, etc., Djokovic has firmly occupied a place in the top group; however, at the most critical and difficult moments of the game, Djokovic has been repeatedly seen falling. Chain, due to diarrhea, the number of early retirements due to injuries has exceeded one hand, so that the keyword "weakness at critical moments" has become Djokovic's label.
More than once, people in the industry have accused Djokovic of lacking tenacity and will, "maybe he will never stop at a slam", and this is the conclusion of people.
No one expected that the Davis Cup at the end of 2010 became a turning point in Djokovic's career. In this declining national team competition, Djokovic led the team to defeat the mighty French team. The top champion, the sense of honor from the country made this young player reborn and completed the transformation.
Even Djokovic himself did not expect it.
Then, in the 2011 season that followed, Djokovic won three Grand Slam titles at the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and US Open in one fell swoop, officially completing his transformation.
From the perspective of Djokovic, the "one-slam player", Del Potro in 2009 and Wawrinka in 2014, they all encountered some troughs and ups and downs more or less because of the "grand slam champion" "Halo" has become a sharp weapon to attract hatred, and competition has become another matter.
Now ~www.mtlnovel.com~ it's Gao Wen's turn.
For Zhan Jun, he takes a longer-term view.
He wants to see whether Gao Wen still maintains a normal mind, whether he is still as high-spirited as the US Open, and whether he can still remain calm and steady when facing difficulties through his performance in one match or two matches. Far more important than one or two wins.
Obviously, Gao Wen also realized this—
Unforced errors became the protagonist. This is definitely not Gao Wen's game style, because mistakes are flying all over the sky, which means that Gao Wen has lost control of the game.
If you are facing a player who dominates the offense like Kyrgios, then unforced errors are a necessary process to start the confrontation; but facing a stable player like Mayer, unforced errors may make you passive .
Losing by a big score in the first set tie-break was the most intuitive result.
He needs to adjust.
