Chapter 207: Doubles is also great [I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!]

There are 64 tennis singles players at the Olympics, while in mixed doubles, there are only 16 players, so it can be said that the four rounds are over, which is two rounds less than the singles competition. Fastest updates

That's why the two projects started so many days apart.

However, with the two projects going on at the same time, it was time to test Li Cai's physical strength.

Li Cai and Na formed the mixed doubles pair, and the first round of the mixed doubles match was against Germany's Sabina Liski and Christoph Kas.

Sabina Liski, a tennis player, Li Cai still mentioned that he is expected by the German people to be the "Graf of the new era", and the world singles ranking has reached 15, but Li Cai has never heard of doubles.

As for Christopher Cass, a tennis player, Li Cai has never heard of it, and it seems that he has no achievements in making any shots.

It seems that the mixed doubles combination of the two of them is similar to the combination of Li Cai and Sister Na, they are all temporary combinations, and there is no tacit understanding.

Therefore, the organizers played the first round match between the two of them and Li Cai and Li Na, giving Li Cai and them a weaker mixed doubles pair.

After all, the combination of Li Cai and Li Na is the most famous in mixed doubles, the best combination to attract attention, and it can also be a guarantee of ratings.

In the tennis event, in the first round of mixed doubles, the organizer took care of Li Cai and them in advance when they were grouped.

After all, it costs a lot of money to hold an Olympic Games, and many of them have to be held at a loss, and the best one to hold is the 29th Beijing Olympic Games in Li Cai's view.

And Britain wants to do better, who knows that it backfires, and it will be half the effort.

As we all know, holding such an international competition requires a lot of manpower and talent, especially the construction of venues, which is very expensive, so for the sake of attendance and ratings, the organizer still gave Li Cai a certain amount of convenience and increased popularity.

Anyway, when they reached the quarterfinals, that is, the second round, this kind of care effect disappeared, and the players who could enter the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games were all strong players, so in the next tennis mixed doubles match, for Li Cai and Sister Na, every field was a tough battle.

Unfortunately, when it comes to the next Olympics in Rio, it will be a shame, neither the infrastructure nor the progress of the competition will satisfy the world's audience.

This makes other cities that bid for the Olympics have retreated, especially in the competition for the 2024 Olympic Games, there are still more than a dozen cities competing for the competition, and finally withdrawing one after another, leaving only Los Angeles and Paris to insist, and finally the Olympic Organizing Committee can only give Paris 24 years, 28 years allocated to Los Angeles, the Olympic Games used to be said to be a "pearl in the palm of the hand", but now it has become a "hot potato".

Athletes' lounge in Germany.

Christopher Cass looked at the battle list and happily said to Sabina Lisky: "Oh, yes, Sabina, our opponents in the first round are Li Cai and Li Na from Huaguo. ”

Hearing Li Cai's name, Sabina was stunned at first, and then her eyes lit up, and she said to Christopher Cass: "Really?"

"Of course. ”

Obviously, in their opinion, the temporary mixed doubles combination of Li Cai and Li Na was forced by their country to participate, although the personal strength is very powerful, but the tacit understanding and cooperation of the mixed doubles must be very poor, and it is not comparable to the two of them at all, especially Li Cai, who has never played doubles at all, it can be said that it is a layman, and it is a breakthrough.

After all, doubles is a tactical matching, and two good players in singles games are teammates playing doubles matches, not necessarily 1 plus 1 is greater than 2, or even poor coordination, it may be less than 2.

Although doubles has a larger sideline, there are two people, and although the range of control required on the court for singles is 1.5 times that of each person on average, the range of control of each person is constantly changing during the movement of doubles, so in general, the range of doubles is larger than that of singles.

In the eyes of the two of them, the singles tactic is more intuitive, and the success of a singles tactic often requires the accumulation of multiple shots, multiple boards, and multiple back and forth, in addition to serving and scoring, while the doubles tactic is more hidden and sudden, instantaneous attack and defense, and the opportunity is fleeting.

Therefore, this is also the reason why the two German mixed doubles players are so happy after seeing that their opponents are the mixed doubles team composed of Li Cai and Li Na.

…………

On August 2, at 4:30 p.m., the first round of the tennis mixed doubles match between Li Cai and Sister Na began.

"Welcome to the first round of the Mixed Doubles tennis tournament, which features Li Cai and Li Na of China against Christoph Kass and Sabina Liski of Germany. The narrator began to explain.

After introducing the two sides of the game, the commentator continued: "Huaguo's mixed doubles combination is really luxurious! They are all Grand Slam level players, but I don't know if they can cooperate, after all, Li Cai seems to be playing doubles for the first time, although in tennis, the singles rules are applicable to doubles, but the doubles rules have their own special rules: as with the order of serve, the order of receiving the ball must be decided before the start of each set, that is, the side that receives the ball first should decide who will receive the serve first at the beginning of the first game, and continue to receive the serve first in this set. The opponent should also decide who will receive the serve first at the beginning of the second game, and continue to receive the serve first in the even-numbered game, and their partners should take turns receiving the serve in each game, so the tacit understanding between the two is very important!"

Obviously, the commentator is not optimistic about the mixed doubles combination of Li Cai and Li Na, even if Li Cai is good in singles on the grass court, he can't play two, or even one or three.

In the first game, Sister Li Caina and their side served recklessly.

Sister Na said to Li Cai: "You serve first, or I come first." ”

"I'll serve first, see if they can get my serve, and then think about not using tactics. ”

After all, it's the Olympics, and many opponents will come to observe and see how their opponents use doubles tactics and coordination.

So before the game, Li Cai discussed with Sister Na that if he could hide his strength, he would try to hide his strength as much as possible, and not expose the true strength and tacit understanding of the two of them.

Sister Na listened and nodded, after all, Li Cai's charged serve is the number one killer in the grass court of Wimbledon.

At the beginning of the match, Li Cai showed his service strength mercilessly, showing his singles strength at Wimbledon.

He hit four aces directly, scored spontaneously, and blinded the two German players on the opposite side.

I didn't expect Li to be so powerful at all.

"It's okay, he can't play such a good serve every round. Cass thought to himself, regulating his breathing and getting ready to serve.

didn't expect that in their service game, Li Cai relied on his excellent skills in front of the net, and although they played doubles for a long time, the tacit understanding between the two was not very high, and Li Cai and Sister Na saw the opportunity and directly penetrated it.

"It's okay, wait for Li Na to serve, it won't be so powerful, there is still a chance. Cass thought.

But even if Sister Na's serve is not good, Li Cai is in front of the net, and he doesn't have to run in front of the net, he directly takes out his various skills in front of the net, and hits the opposite side of the water.

In the final game, Li Cai and Sister Na won the first mixed doubles match with 6:1/6:1 and advanced to the next round of mixed doubles.
