Chapter 69 Coyotes vs Tigers
If Cong Ion Yuan is a cunning and forbearing coyote, then Fan Ju is a tiger that eats people and does not spit bones. The attack in the forehand position is like a sharp sword, stabbing the opponent's body with a knife. Before I even realized what he had done wrong, Ion Yuan Suo was already attacked by Fan Ju's continuous forehand position without any power to fight back.
"Why would I play the opponent's forehand position?" Iwazumi Suo also began to ask himself after stopping, but he found that under such a tempting situation, if he did not attack, he would completely lose the opportunity to take the initiative.
But even if you attack, you will encounter Fan Ju's powerful forehand, as if his return route had long been expected by Fan Ju, and no matter which direction it is just a trap without a way out.
Fan Ju, who was the first to score a point in his opponent's serve, was very happy. He knew that doing so was risky. If the opponent's forehand position was stronger than him or even the same, doing so would almost be like giving the opponent points.
But Fan Ju understands his advantage in this game. His running position is faster than his opponent, and his forehands are more accurate than his opponent. Except for lack of experience, he has an overwhelming advantage in other aspects. If he doesn't even dare to attack like this, then when can he attack?
Give the opponent the opportunity to take the initiative to attack and break the opponent's defense like a turtle shell. Fan Ju had long known that he could easily master the initiative in the attack, so his opponent's conservative play was to take advantage of his unforced mistakes to score points, and he was the only one who suffered the loss.
Once the opponent is lured to take the initiative to attack, his advantage on the offensive end can be truly utilized. The only risk is that the opponent is likely to score a few beautiful active winning points.
However, this has nothing to do with the overall situation. After all, it is still in the opponent's serve. Unless Iwaazumi Suo and the Indian player are as relaxed, Fan Ju will not be able to completely suppress it.
The future game is a low-level event, so there is no specialist who counts the game data on the sidelines. If you compare the data before and after the fifth game, you will find that Fan Ju's unforced mistakes are constantly decreasing, while his opponents frequently make mistakes in the offenses. It is hard to tell how many of them are oppressed mistakes and how many are unforced mistakes.
But the only thing that is certain is that Cong Iwaaki sticks to the defense line of 2 games, and just in his third serve, Fan Ju had an irreparable loophole!
In the first set, Fan Ju did not use a lot of inducing offensive tactics to induce attacks. He needed his opponents to cooperate to test more of his ideas, surf the Internet, keep straight lines, and chased him in the reverse direction. In short, Fan Ju needs to obtain more information from these experienced players to fill his poor database and improve his game tactics.
However, Iwayuan Cong was like a doll floating in the sea. When he encountered the attack of a storm, he could barely float on the sea surface, but he knew that he had not had much time. As long as a big wave hit him, he would completely sink to the bottom of the sea.
Iwazu Atsushi, who was pressed on the bottom line and corner, wanted to find a driftwood that could support him, but he sadly discovered that he could only hope to turn the tables. He only had two possibilities: waiting for his opponent to perform suddenly or withdraw from the competition due to an accidental injury. It was almost a delusion to find a way to defeat his opponent from his skills.
The firm willpower still supported Iwaiyuan Cong and Fan Ju insisted on the game on the court. Even if there was a glimmer of hope, he did not intend to give up, but the result was self-evident. When Fan Ju completed a break in the first set, Iwaiyuan Cong had already lost the opportunity to take advantage of the tiebreak to get the lead.
Fan Ju's offense in the second set was more direct and concise, and he was more comfortable in dealing with the defensive Tortoise shell tactics. Several beautiful resumptions to the bottom line were rarely received by the Indian audience watching the game on the sidelines.
You should know that many of them came to watch a rare yellow race, but unexpectedly, Fan Ju's performance was so outstanding. Even many audiences who didn't quite understand tennis felt that Fan Ju's elegance on the court was very elegant, as if they were watching a yoga or dance master showing his flexible curves, with a profound philosophical atmosphere in peace.
In the second set to the 9th game, the score had reached 5:3. Although Iwazumi Suo took advantage of his serve, he had no idea that he could still turn the tables.
Although Fan Ju only broke his second serve in the second set, he clearly felt that his situation was hopeless. In several games, he had to fight until several draws or even the opponent took the lead, so he could only save the game that was about to be lost with several beautiful serves.
But even so, he still felt that his opponent still had strength, and there seemed to be a more terrifying potential hidden in his relaxed and natural expression. Once he showed his strength to fight back, he would completely throw himself into hell.
Even the veteran who had been in the profession for many years couldn't help but tremble in his heart. In the last game, he made frequent mistakes in the serve, which made Fan Ju, who had no bright spots on his opponent, decide to end the game as soon as possible.
"He has gone online? He has actually gone online! Why has he never been online continuously in the game? Is it because his strength is not worth his doing?" Seeing Fan Ju suddenly moving to the front of the net after the post extension, Iwazumi Cong was completely messy. His several time-travel counterattacks were easily predicted by the opponent and intercepted them in front of the net, which almost directly announced Iwazumi Cong's death penalty.
The final serve did not spark any spark at all. Fan Ju completely extinguished the opponent's last counterattack possibility, and ended this unpopular game amidst the scattered applause.
"Your defense is very interesting. Maybe if the bottom line is stronger, you will persist for a longer time." Fan Ju saw his declining opponents and did not ridicule others because of their opponent's nationality. He gave advice that he thought was pertinent. Compared with those opponents who gave up the game mentally, Cong Iwazumi's performance is already very good.
Giving respect to your opponent means giving respect to yourself. This is also what Fan Ju learned from old Nick from online school. The old man has taught too many students. Whether it is white or black, he treats every child who loves tennis equally. His skin color and country cannot change his love for tennis. This is the most essential noble etiquette of real tennis.
After completing this battle to break the defense, Fan Ju felt that it was very fulfilling. The final front-net interception was a small problem. Of course, this was not to humiliate the opponent, but to improve his tactics. He wanted to know whether he could break through such a defense based on his front-net ability and test the integrity of his tactics.
Of course, the result is obvious. The player who likes to encounter the most is the player who keeps hudding at the bottom line, because only in this way can their turtle shell have stronger defensive power. However, once Fan Ju launches short-frequency fast attack in front of the net, although the player in the turtle shell can still choose to cross the ball and counterattack with a high-profile ball, he often chooses to be too hasty, and it is easier for the former players to find fatal loopholes.
Fan Ju's bottom line is strong enough, so he doesn't need to learn from Sampras to serve the ball at the beginning. His tactical changes also have more combination possibilities because of the balance of technology. He serves very strongly, has strong forward and backhand hands, and has a very fast pace. In addition to his strong ability to intercept in front of the net, the only thing Fan Ju has to do is to combine these techniques more reasonably on the field, and then make them stronger and faster, so that his opponent has no way to escape!
Fan Ju was relieved after defeating a good player in Rembrandt, but it did not mean that he could really relax. He had already achieved the lowest goal to reach the semi-finals, but what Fan Ju wanted was a championship and a victory, so he still couldn't meet his needs now.
"There is good news and bad news. The good news is that your opponent appears in the next round. The bad news is that he seems to think he can easily beat you to qualify for the final."
Rembrandt appeared after Fan Ju's game as always. Of course, he not only came to congratulate Fan Ju on his advancement, but also brought news to Fan Ju about the next round of the game.
After the No. 1 seed was obviously eliminated from the bonus early, the Ukrainian Ostatrisku, who was destined to be the second seed in the second half of the competition, became the well-deserved No. 1 seed player.
The Ukrainian's performance in the first three rounds did not tarnish his title as a seed player. This player, who had ranked 240 in the world in February last year, faced his fragile low-ranking opponents, all won with two sets of sweeping, leaving no chance for his opponent.
The second seed and a dark horse like Fan Ju are treated differently after all, or the Indian media are more interested in interviewing a white man and replacing the championship than the Asian Civil War. Even the local people in Lucknow clearly think this is the case. In addition to the few viewers who chose to watch Fan Ju and Iwaazumi, according to Rembrandt's description, the number of viewers who chose to watch the Aosta game must be more than 700.
The atmosphere on the scene was very lively. A group of rich Indians who were watching the game with servants. It was difficult for Fan Ju to imagine what kind of scene it was in modern society. His stadium was basically filled with audiences based on family.
A local tabloid in Lucknow also conducted a brief interview after the game. Rembrandt, who went to inquire about the news, happened to be sitting in the VIP seat close to the player's position, so he completely conveyed his opponent's words to Fan Ju.
"There won't be a third set in my game! What a big tone!" Fan Ju repeated Rembrandt's words. He was now very interested in knowing what confidence he, the opponent in the next round, has to say such words?
