Chapter 1072 Gambling
Under the locked coverage, Li Ba "saw" the ball coming, and he immediately twisted his waist and swung his arms, ready to hit.
His backhand is one-handed. Of course, single-handed and double-handed forehands are fine, but with his control of the racket, he usually uses one-handed, rarely two-handed, and this time he is also one-handed.
Montanes's second serve, the speed of the ball is average.
"boom!"
At the moment of hitting the ball, Li Ba felt good, and he should have hit the sweetheart.
Sure enough, although the return ball was high, it did not lose control. In the extremely strong topspin, it suddenly turned a corner in the air, hit the field, and then rebounded.
Although the ball landed at the midpoint, which was good for catching the ball, it rebounded high and fast. Montanes took several strides back and retreated nearly three meters before finding a chance to hit the ball.
He returned a flat shot, hit the ball on the way down, and barely had quality.
At this time, Li Ba was already on the net, and with a light touch, the ball bounced back.
Montanes rushed up quickly, but it was too late, and the ball had already jumped twice before returning to the court.
"2:2." The chief judge shouted.
"That's a good catch!"
Zhang Depei laughed while applauding.
Montanes shot.
He intentionally increased the speed of the ball, but the ball brushed the net, fell in bounds, and resent.
Another serve, this time the serve was of good quality, fast, and well placed, just hitting the sideline of the outer corner.
The speedometer shows that the ball speed of this serve is 225km/h.
However, Li Ba's reaction speed was too fast, and he still returned the ball and landed in the center near the end line, which was very beneficial for Montanes to catch the ball.
Montanes catches the ball, topspins it, and whips it toward Li Ba's backhand.
After Li Ba returned the ball, he moved to the midpoint. At this time, he "saw" the trajectory of the ball, and immediately moved two steps to the left again.
At this moment, the ball hit the corner, and Li Ba slammed backhand with one hand, pulling diagonally to the corner, and with a bang, he returned a more intense topspin.
Immediately after he returned the ball, he took another net grab.
This slash was drawn well, just like Montanes just now, it was drawn on the corner.
However, Li Ba's topspin was stronger, and Montanes didn't want to retreat to return the ball, which would give Li Ba a chance to hit the net, so he directly hit the upswing.
To return this kind of high-quality topspin, one is to return the ball when it rebounds and falls, and the other is to return it when the ball rebounds and rises.
Can return topspin but has a slow tempo that allows opponents to take advantage of opportunities to move.
If you can return a high-quality flat shot, that's the best option.
Generally, when you hit the ball back flat, you will choose to hit back when the ball rebounds and rises, because the flat hit is very fast and low, and it will not give the opponent too much time to move.
Just like Montanes' flat shot just now, he just chose the wrong choice. He hit it when the ball bounced and fell. Not only did he need to retreat further, but he also gave Li Ba a chance to hit the net.
There are also two opportunities for flat strikes when rising, one is on the way up, and the other is rising to the apex.
The latter requires strength and height, and the average tennis player rarely chooses this position.
The former requires good skills. For example, Federer used this method to deal with Nadal's topspin. When the ball has not bounced to the highest point, the effect is very good.
Montanes chose to hit the rising point and backhand a slash.
With a bang, he hit the ball back flat, but the ball didn't return well. His backhand technique was not as strong as Federer's. He missed the sweetheart and returned the ball too high.
If the quality of this flat shot is high enough, then Li Ba's netting will fail because the ball will pass first, but this ball is a bit high, which gives Li Ba a chance to adapt.
Before he reached the net, he saw the path of the ball, made an emergency stop, and then moved across the path to the left. At this time, the ball fell, and he took off directly. With one-handed swing, he returned an extremely powerful A volley in the air, with a bang, the ball hit the opponent's right half, and then bounced out of bounds. Montanes didn't react, and there was no time to move.
"2:3. Game point." The chief judge shouted.
"Beautiful! The hammer is trying to break serve!" Tong Kexin shouted happily in the Beijing CCTV live broadcast room.
"This kind of volley in the air, the hammer has too much advantage. In the whole tennis world, no one is better than him with this kind of ball." Zhang Sheng said excitedly.
"Uh-huh……"
The grinning Tong Kexin nodded repeatedly.
Montanes serves, spins down, and goes to the outside corner.
In order to fight the ace ball, the action of hitting the ball is very powerful.
"mistake!"
But the ball went out of bounds, a second serve.
Second serve, inside corner, backspin.
Li Ba forced the topspin with his backhand. In order to ensure that the ball returned within bounds, he pulled a diagonal line, which is where Montanes served.
After returning the ball, he grabbed the net again.
Montanes once again chose to hit a flat shot on the way up the rebound. Only by playing a high-quality flat shot can Li Ba's net-grabbing tactics be broken.
With a bang, he finally returned a good flat shot this time, hitting a diagonal line, fast and low, and the ball passed before Li Ba could finish the net.
While grabbing the net, Li Ba stared at Montanes' return action. After seeing it, he suddenly stopped and slowed down. Holding the racket in his right hand, he turned back and blocked instantly.
Bang, a precise volley, the racket accurately blocked the ball back.
The point landed in bounds, right on the center line of the service line, and Montanes rushed up, taking one last long stride and picking the ball over.
But at this time Li Ba had already finished grabbing the net and took advantage of the situation.
"Yeah! Dad broke his hair!"
In the stands, the girl took Guoguo's little hand and cheered.
Seeing Li Ba's break, "Guo Da" felt that he might lose money today, but fortunately he didn't take Crystal's big bet, and the amount was not much.
"2:4, the end of one game, the first set, the number of games is 2:0, Li Ba leads." The chief judge shouted.
"Break, well done!" Zhang Sheng shouted excitedly in the Beijing CCTV live broadcast room.
"Tie Hammer's netting is too active! The tactics are very reasonable, making full use of his advantage in front of the net..." Tong Kexin laughed.
After drinking two sips of water and wiping off his sweat, Li Ba picked up the racket again.
When it was his turn to serve, the ball boy ran over and asked him to pick the ball.
"In the first serve, the hammer hit two aces, I hope this serve will continue..." Zhang Sheng shouted in the CCTV live broadcast room.
Li Ba was ready to serve, turned around to look at his opponent at last, and then threw the ball up.
"boom!"
"ACE!"
The referee's voice sounded loudly.
"yeah!"
The girl applauded and cheered, and Guoguo followed suit.
"It's the third ACE ball! I bet the Hammer can hit fifty ACEs in this game, who will bet on me?"
Jordan exclaimed excitedly.
Emma Watson immediately said: "The current ACE ball record, the most in a single game is Mahat, who hit 103 ACE balls in a single game.
There were six times in a single game with more than 78 ACE balls, of which Karlovic played more than 55 ACE balls in a single game three times, 51 times, [-] times and [-] times respectively. "
Speaking of this, she said to the girl: "Crystal, Karlovic is currently the tallest tennis player, two centimeters taller than the hammer. I think the hammer can really improve his serving skills. His strength and wingspan More advantage than Karlovic."
"That's what he decided." The girl smiled.
"Only six times?"
Guo Da decided to get back a round, because he was sure that it required not only good skills, but also good opportunities to play enough rounds. He wanted to take another gamble, and said to Jordan: "Michael, one hundred thousand dollars, I Bet against you."
"OK."
Jordan nodded happily.
