Chapter 126: The Second Grand Slam

Soon, the semi-finals will begin.

Li Cai's opponent was Nadal, who eliminated Nadal, who was still world No. 1 on clay, in the semifinals of the French Open.

Nadal is the "King of Clay", having won five French Open titles, and he was also very unhappy to be defeated by Li Cai at this year's French Open.

If he was defeated by his old enemy Federer, there was not much to say. But Li Cai was a newcomer who had just entered professional tennis at that time, and was defeated by Li Cai, Nadal is a conceited and proud person, so he naturally felt embarrassed and embarrassed, and this time he naturally wanted to get back on the court and defeat Li Cai.

But when Li Cai broke the top speed of tennis and reached a serve speed of 300 kilometers per hour, Nadal felt that it was very tricky, and he needed to be careful if he wanted to win the match.

However, Nadal is not very afraid, because he is not like Murray, who only knows how to counterattack with defense, and his heavy ball must be able to press Li Cai. After all, Nadal is still confident in his explosiveness and strength, and he doesn't believe that Li Cai, a yellow man, can compete with him in strength.

In one, Nadal also didn't believe that Li Cai could play such a high-quality high-speed serve every game.

And just like that, it's time for the semifinals of the US Open.

The four finalists were Nadal, Li Cai, Federer and Djokovic.

Although the organizers want Federer and Nadal to reach the final and compete for the US Open title. Because Federer is also known as the "cow" and Nadal is also known as "natto", the game between the two people is also known as the "cow bean battle", which has always been a more exciting game in tennis, and it is also a game that attracts attention and attention, so that more people can watch the game.

The organizers hold competitions, so they naturally want more people to watch them, and "Cow Bean Wars" has always been a high-rated competition.

However, Li Cai and Djokovic are going to disappoint the organizers, because it must be the two of them who will enter the final.

The match between Li Cai and Nadal began.

Li Cai started to serve first, and Li Cai naturally used a charged serve to deal with Nadal, wanting to see how he coped.

In the first leg, when the score came to 40-0, Nadal gradually began to find his form, and after he pulled the score to 40-15, he finally conceded a goal, allowing Li Cai to temporarily lead 1-0.

In the second leg between the two sides, Nadal's form continued to improve, although he did not send an ace, nor did he serve to score directly, but the perfect forehand with the initiative to attack, still won his own serve game relatively easily, and the two sides fought to a 1-1 draw.

After two rounds, although the score of the two sides is 1-1, both sides know that the real game has just begun, and the first two rounds of the game can be said to be a warm-up process for the players on both sides, or it can be said to be a process of testing each other, and then, the real fierce confrontation officially begins.

At the beginning of the third round, Li Cai took the lead and hit an ace to score first, but then on the second ball, Li Cai encountered strong resistance from Nadal.

However, Li Cai is not worried, he still has a lot of skills, and a lot of offensive means, no less than Federer's offensive methods, and even more powerful.

However, Li has to grasp the physical problem, after all, Nadal is known as the "bullfighter who can't run to death". Compare your physical strength with Nadal, and if you play and consume, you will lose steadily!

Li Cai naturally won't be stupid, he has a tough confrontation with Nadal, he has so many skills in front of the net, as long as he uses it properly, he can end the game in a few rounds, and he doesn't need to fight back and forth more than a dozen times.

In this way, while Li Cai kept his serve, he also seized the opportunity, and when Nadal made a mistake on his serve, he used a series of skills to break and score.

In this way, Li Cai won the first game 6:4 in the first game.

At the start of the second game, Nadal brought out his signature serve, the topspin serve.

Nadal's topspin serve is the most spinning serve in the world for tennis spin, and his ball speed is twice as fast as that of the average professional player, which is why Nadal's topspin serve is known as the most difficult topspin in the world.

"It's so hard to control!" Li Cai noticed a floating sensation coming from the racket, and he tried hard to suppress the racket, but he still couldn't ensure that the tennis ball flew according to his intentions.

However, after a few rounds, Li Cai also slowly got used to it.

Li Cai's topspin is different from Nadal's, Nadal is more after spin speed and power, while Li Cai's outspin serve is about tricky angles and irregular kicks.

Although there are more advantages and disadvantages, the skills given by the system are more stable and there are no mistakes, while Nadal's serve is different, and the quality of the serve will not be the same with Nadal's own condition.

In this way, Li Cai won 6:3, 6:4 in the second and third games and entered the final of the US Open.

And the semi-final match between Federer and Djokovic did not surprise Li Cai, and Djokovic won to enter the final.

This also disappointed the audience who wanted to watch "Cow Bean War", thinking that Li Cai and Djokovic were too hateful.

In the final of the US Open, this is also the third match between the two, but Li Cai lost to Djokovic in the first two times, which is also the time for Li Cai to prove himself and be ashamed.

At the start of the first game, Djokovic served first.

Djokovic didn't get into the groove quickly on his own serve, he came up and sent a double fault, and the two sides also tied at 30-30 after four balls, probably too much pressure.

After all, Djokovic has already won two Grand Slam trophies this season, and when he won the Grand Slam trophy at the US Open, it can be said that he has performed perfectly in 11 years.

was broken by Li Cai in the first round, which also made the hearts of the audience who supported Djokovic feel tight, and they felt that they were going to suffer.

In Li Cai's service game, Li Cai naturally easily held the serve and turned the score into 2:0.

Later in the first game, Djokovic found his groove and began to exert force.

It's a pity that he lost too many points in front, and Li easily won the first game 6:2.

In the second game, Djokovic's state has reached its peak, and like Li Cai, his tennis ability value has reached 97.

After all, in 11 years, Djokovic was at the peak, maintaining the number one position in the world for a long time, and the points reached a terrifying 16,000, which is double the points of the second place in the world rankings.

However, even if Djokovic has reached his peak state, his ability value is as high as 97, which is the same as Li Cai, but under Li Cai's diversified serving and netting skills, there is no way to play.

Djokovic is a player who is very good at finding the opponent's weaknesses and is super good at adjusting himself, but whenever he finds a problem with Li Cai's technique, Li Cai changes to another technique, which makes Djokovic helpless.

The match ended in four games, and Li Cai won the match 6-2, 6-4, 6(3):7(7), 6-1, defeating Djokovic, who "double-killed" him, and won the US Open Grand Slam title.

This is also the second Grand Slam title won by Li Cai, who is only one step away from the Australian Open and Wimbledon in a Grand Slam.

However, with Li Cai's current strength, these two Grand Slam trophies next year will not be easy to obtain.

In short, Li won the US Open and lifted his second Grand Slam trophy.
