Chapter 517: Amazing Return Ball
Perhaps because the state was too relaxed, Liu Wangsong's first shot was very far off the target, nearly a foot away from the sideline.
But even so, Du Xinghe also moved to the position in advance and made a move to lead the shooting. If it weren't for Liu Wangsong and the lineman behind him shouting "OUT" together, Du Xinghe would have pulled Zheng Sai back with this shot.
Zheng Sai didn't care about the out-of-bounds serve, because as soon as the ball left the racket, he knew that his wrist was shaking too relaxed, and the ball was likely to go out of bounds.
What Zheng Sai didn't expect was that Du Xinghe's footsteps moved so fast, and Du Xinghe, who was out of bounds, moved in place, and those few small steps were really amazingly fast!
And it is obvious that Du Xinghe has a certain ability to predict, and the moment his ball is out of the racket, Du Xinghe made an accurate advance prediction move. I don't know if this is blind, because it is impossible for ordinary amateurs to have such good prediction.
Du Xinghe's move is naturally not blind, there is a leader like Zhang Yifan who plays purely with his brain, and he has already gained very rich experience in prediction from Zhang Yifan.
Zhang Yifan taught Du Xinghe the prediction method that he has played for nearly ten years, which can be called his lifelong experience, and especially focused on telling Du Xinghe what kind of ball the opponent will send out at the angle and technique of the contact between the racket and the ball.
Although ordinary people are aware of these predictive points that can be observed, because serving is a matter of a moment, many people still can't reflect and deal with it at the moment of lightning even if they see what type of ball the opponent is going to serve.
Only after a lot of actual combat practice, at the moment when the opponent has not yet taken the shot. Through guò to predict some reflex small movements of the opponent's body, and one step in advance, in order to have sufficient reaction time to respond.
It's hard to do this without a lot of practice.
Du Xinghe is different from ordinary people. This guy's reflexes are several times faster than ordinary people, and the activation speed is also faster than ordinary people, so in the moment of lightning, he can already make a very good response. As long as he guesses correctly, he can basically give back the opponent's serve, unless the opponent's serve is too fast and violent.
Zheng Sai did not believe in evil, and decided to drill the tip of the horn and send another outside corner spinning ball. I want to see how many catties and taels Du Xinghe has.
After Du Xinghe walked back to the bottom line of the first district. This time he only took a step back, and most professional players have a habit of choosing a more conservative way in the second serve, and will not send particularly violent balls. So there was no need for him to take two steps back and guard. One step away from the bottom line is enough. This will help him grab a step more distance, and if the opportunity is right, he will snatch the opponent's second serve.
Zheng Saijian Du Xinghe stood one step more forward than when he received the ball for the first time. I feel inexplicably unhappy. Because of such a change, it is obvious that it reveals the meaning of rushing to attack to put pressure on the opponent. If the opponent is Zhang Di and grabs a step up after the second shot, then Zheng Sai has nothing to say. Isn't it funny that an amateur player would even snatch his second serve!
A sneer curved into the corner of his mouth, Zheng Sai decided to send a very rotating ball and walked directly to the outer corner, but to see how Du Xinghe attacked.
After making up his mind, Zheng Sai tossed the tennis ball high again, his eyes were focused on the flying tennis ball, this time his spirit was obviously more concentrated than when he first served, if he came up and made a double mistake, it would be too embarrassing and demoralizing, after all, there were 100 people watching him play.
Standing up the racket, bending his knees and flicking slightly, his body did not stretch too much, purely by the rotation of his wrist, Zheng Sai pulled out an outer corner spinning ball that was the same as just now.
- Bang.
This time, the impact of the tennis ball out of the net was not as loud as the first time, and the sound of Guò knew that the force of his ball was not very large, and the speed of the ball was only about 110 km/h.
People who don't know tennis will think that he is letting Du Xinghe if they have watched Zheng Sai's serve when he just practiced, and then look at his current serve.
But in fact, this is not the case, although Zheng Sai's ball is not strong, but the rotation is very porcelain, the speed of the ball is extremely fast, this kind of ball makes novices pick up a headache, generally do not understand the rotation of the ball newcomers, a force is easy to hit such a ball to fly. Even the pros have to be careful when it comes to spinning the ball.
This time, Zheng Sai was full of concentration and accurately pumped the ball into the service area.
The tennis ball bounced off the ground and was visibly refracted and flew out of the court.
Zhang Yiyang: The position where they sat was the direction in which Zheng Sai pumped the ball out of the outfield, and they saw the strong spin of the ball very obviously. However, they are no longer surprised by such balls, because the topspin balls drawn by Du Xinghe are the most unturnable than this one. Playing with a spinning ball in front of Du Xinghe, Zheng Sai is really playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong.
Zhang Yiyang and the others saw that Zheng Sai's ball had just come out of the racket, and Du Xinghe had already moved to the sidelines.
The right-handed player takes an outside corner kick in the first area, and if the receiving side moves his feet in advance and guesses the way of the ball, he can directly draw the ball back with a violent right hand slap.
Du Xinghe saw the opportunity at this time, and at the moment when the ball bounced, he had already chosen the hitting position. After the tennis ball bounced to the ground, it was strongly folded outward, which was all under Du Xinghe's expectations, his eyes were staring at the ball, and after fine-tuning the hitting point slightly, Du Xinghe quickly turned sideways and made a forehand lead action.
After Zheng Sai sent the ball, he habitually moved a step to the center of the field, and when he saw Du Xinghe move quickly to the outfield again, he was sure that Du Xinghe had a simple prediction ability, which was a little stronger than he imagined.
Zheng Sai was stimulated to turn the racket with both hands, and was engrossed in observing Du Xinghe's volleying action. Seeing Du Xinghe leading the racket, he pulled the racket to the bottom diagonally, and it seemed that he was going to pull the upspin ball from the bottom up.
Zheng Sai squinted and waited, and his mind was also quickly analyzing, at this distance of the topspin ball, Du Xinghe should pull a diagonal line to hit the ball back to the first area, so that the ball has enough falling distance. If he pulls a straight line to play the opposite angle, the path of the ball will be greatly shortened, which is not conducive to the fall of the topspin ball, and it is easy to draw out of bounds.
Through Guò experience, Zheng Sai habitually moved back a small step to the first district. Prepare to hold the diagonal where Du Xinghe is most likely to attack. At the same time, he was also looking forward to it in his heart, Du Xinghe should pump the ball away, because this ball has a strong spin, and the average person is not good at controlling it, as long as he pulls it, he will fly.
However, he underestimated Du Xinghe's wrist violence.
Du Xinghe draws a violent topspin ball, and at the moment of lifting, nearly 40% of the surface of the racket and the ball will be subjected to a large package of strong friction, as long as it is not a particularly perverted spinning ball of three or four thousand revolutions, Du Xinghe's topspin and pull can be unloaded, so that the ball produces new spin.
Zheng Sai's speed of this ball is only about 1500 rpm. Compared to Du Xinghe's spinning ball, it is completely trivial. Du Xinghe didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, after identifying the way the ball came from, he pulled the ball back with the violent topspin ball that he had drawn tens of thousands of times and was already familiar with-
Bang!
Du Xinghe's voice from the ball. The Zhang brothers and sisters and Bian Siliang listened very kindly. This sound is louder than Zheng Sai's serve just now. It's like thunder, it's especially enjoyable to listen to! People who have never heard of Du Xinghe pumping the ball on the sidelines saw Du Xinghe snatching Zheng Sai's second serve. Pulling out such a violent return ball, I was a little stunned.
Zheng Sai didn't expect Du Xinghe's return to be so violent! Just by listening to the sound, he knew that it was not good, and the strength of this ball was extraordinary!
Fortunately, Du Xinghe chose a more conservative route for this ball, that is, the usual route that Zheng Sai guessed - the direction of the diagonal was drawn.
Zheng Sai watched the ball drawn back by Du Xinghe pass through the net, and the ball flew at a height nearly half a meter higher than the net belt, and it looked like it was about to fly. But Zheng Sai, who has seen Du Xinghe's volleying action, can judge from his experience that this ball will fall fiercely! Never fly out of bounds!
Sure enough, after Du Xinghe's ball crossed the net, it was like encountering a strong wave of air, and suddenly fell into the field at a 70-degree angle!
The momentum and route of this ball are comparable to a probe dragon! Quite ferocious!
Zheng Sai didn't dare to slack off, and quickly took a step back, he knew that this kind of ball would jump forward very quickly after it landed, especially on the plastic field with friction particles, and the bounce trajectory would be very weird.
After Du Xinghe's ball bounced off the ground, it jumped forward more violently than on the cement field, like a snake head that suddenly wanted to bite its prey, and the tricky and fierce offensive almost suffocated the people watching from the sidelines!
With just this one return ball, many people on the sidelines who didn't put Du Xinghe in their eyes before were impressed by Du Xinghe, because such a ball is too rare in the domestic arena!
The layman looks at the excitement, the insider looks at the doorway, Liu Wangsong saw Du Xinghe's ball clearly on the referee's high chair, from Du Xinghe's shooting, to the ball falling like being pushed down by the air wave, and jumping forward like a poisonous tongue spitting letters, Liu Wangsong noticed every detail.
When he was just practicing, Du Xinghe didn't play too hard, so the topspin ball he drew out could only be described as decent, but now this ball, he sent eight points of force, and the strength on his wrist was so strong that it directly made a qualitative leap in the rotation of the ball.
This level of topspin is rare in China, even abroad! Liu Wangsong vaguely saw the style of Italian king Quentin Navarro from this topspin ball!
Quentin Navarro, the world's No. 2 Italian clay player, is a five-time French Open Grand Slam champion and known as the king of clay.
The strength and rotation of the ball drawn by Du Xinghe at this time are comparable to Quentin Navarro, and even Liu Wangsong still has a feeling that the combination of strength and rotation of Du Xinghe's ball is more lethal than Quentin Navarro's topspin ball! Especially those almost anti-physical level forwards on the ground, which are really too domineering!
This ball made Liu Wangsong enthusiastic! The Zhang brothers and sisters and Bian Siliang were also secretly shocked when they saw that Du Xinghe's ball was so fierce after it landed.
The plastic court is really more suitable for Du Xinghe's super topspin style of play, playing on such a court, his comprehensive strength is at least increased by more than 10% by the field!
Outsiders were amazed at Du Xinghe's blockbuster second attack, Zheng Sai on the court didn't have time to sigh, seeing Du Xinghe's return to the ferocious, he hurriedly adjusted his pace, and saw that the tennis ball bounced in the middle of his right backcourt, and jumped towards the bottom corner, Zheng Sai's mind immediately flashed a set of offensive tactics to defend instead of attack, and pressed over one step later. Flicked the ball on his forehand, and he bounced it back.
He looked a little reluctant with this bullet, but it was not a complete passive hit, but a hidden killing machine, when he played, he tilted the racket slightly, and his wrist went down, unloading the rotation of the ball, and at the same time, it also brought out a little cutting ball effect, and after popping out, the tennis ball flew over the net very straight. It bounced straight down the midline. Towards the bottom corner of Du Xinghe's side.
The moment he brought the ball back, Zheng Sai's wrist was shaken, and the way he took the ball was to use his strength to play and at the same time unload the tennis ball's powerful rebound topspin. It takes a lot of strength on his wrist to do the fight. As a result, one touches the ball. He found that Du Xinghe's return ball not only had strong spin. The force is also very domineering, and the moment the ball and the racket touch, his wrist seems to have been snapped by a spring. It was subjected to a strong backlash.
Zheng Sai couldn't imagine that Du Xinghe, a thinner teenager than him, would have such a strong explosive body, and this kind of ball could only be drawn by those super heavy artillery players who are more than 1.9 meters tall. Du Xinghe is so thin, how can he look like a tiger hidden in his body! Is he blinded by this ball?
Zheng Sai had doubts in his heart, he really couldn't imagine that Du Xinghe could have this kind of strength when he pumped the ball normally.
Regardless of whether Du Xinghe is blinded or not, Zheng Sai's catapult return ball is extremely exciting.
Some people on the field even sighed and exclaimed at Zheng Sai's return, because Zheng Sai's return looked really difficult to complete.
Even Liu Wangsong couldn't help but nod when he saw Zheng Sai's return to save the day, this kind of return is not a genius player, and it is almost impossible to do.
Zheng Sai himself was also very satisfied with his clever return ball, which was originally subjected to the impact of Du Xinghe's strong return ball, and the force on his wrist was not easy to control, he thought that the ball would be cut small and could not pass the net. But seeing that the route after the ball flew out was straighter than he imagined, Zheng Sai was down-to-earth, the ball must have crossed the net, and the ball speed was still very fast, and the effect of defending and attacking was very good.
The biggest difference between professional players and amateur players is that the connection between each beat and each beat of professional players is very meticulous and planned, and they have thought of the tactical combination of the next two beats or even the next three beats while playing a beat.
The average amateur player does not have this kind of tempered thinking. One shot is one shot, waiting for the opponent to return to the ball and then continue to play a beat, and never take the initiative to think about what kind of combination tactics to use, step by step, forcing Du Xinghe to a dead point.
Du Xinghe has not yet formed a chain of tactical ideas, he basically looks at the opponent's incoming ball, and temporarily decides the direction of the next shot.
At this time, seeing Zheng Sai's very clever spring-cut return and return the ball to his side in the half, Du Xinghe instantly felt that the level of the guy opposite was N times higher than that of Zhang Yiyang and others.
After playing with Zhang Yiyang for so long, Zhang Yiyang has never come back with such a wonderful and very particular return ball, usually he draws out such a violent second shot to grab the ball, even if Zhang Yiyang barely catches it, he usually catches the ball directly out of bounds. But Zheng Sai was able to return such a wonderful ball in such a passive situation, and Du Xinghe's competitiveness was stimulated at once.
With excitement on his face, Du Xinghe had already moved his steps, facing the straight ball, bowing his waist slightly, stepping on the bottom line of a zone with both feet, and in the corner, he had a violent topspin ball to hit back at Zheng Sai.
Due to Zheng Sai's ball back with a cutting effect, the ball path is very flat, Du Xinghe is engaged in returning the ball, the hitting point is very low, the height is slightly higher than his knee a few centimeters, Du Xinghe has to slightly lower the waist to pump, the force is not too sufficient, but the strength on his wrist is not reduced, and the rotation of the ball drawn out is still very strong, more than 3000 rpm, which is comparable to a car engine.
The tennis ball was like a fire, sliding out of an oblique arc and hitting the first half of the court that Zheng Sai was holding.
Zheng Sai saw that Du Xinghe's return speed had slowed down, his eyes lit up, and he immediately grabbed a step, ready to give Du Xinghe a quick return at the moment when the ball just bounced to the ground, and directly kill the first point.
Liu Wangsong watched Zheng Sai move forward from the high chair, and shouted in his heart that it was not good! He looked at it condescendingly, and he saw the ball very clearly, and the rotation of the ball was not weaker than Du Xinghe's first return ball! The forward channeling rebound after landing will be more violent, even irregular! This kind of ball goes up to grab the attack, and it is likely to make a mistake!
Zheng Sai was playing against Du Xinghe from a level-headed angle, and he was a little contemptuous of Du Xinghe, so he was careless in his judgment of this ball, if he carefully analyzed the friction between the racket and the ball when Du Xinghe drew the ball, he should think that the rotation of this ball was more violent than the ball just now.
At this time, he just felt that Du Xinghe's speed of the ball was slowing down, it must be because his pace was not adjusted just now, he missed the best hitting point, and had to choose a lower hitting point, so he couldn't exert his strength and pulled out a weak return ball, which was a perfect opportunity in Zheng Sai's opinion!
It's an opportunity that top professionals won't want to miss.
Zheng Sai grabbed two steps up, and at the moment when the ball bounced to the ground, he had already turned sideways and made a volley preparation action of pulling the paddle and leading the paddle. At the moment when the ball bounces to the most suitable height, he will use the fastest speed to make a counterattack, and he will be caught off guard!
Du Xinghe's side was indeed a little caught off guard, because the ball was not fully developed just now, he knew that the power of the ball was small, and after pulling it out, he was adjusting his pace and concentrating on preparing to defend, but he saw that Zheng Sai had already killed in the stadium at this time! Pull the racket and it's time to draw the ball! This ball is going to be drawn by Zheng Sai, the distance is too close, he can't defend it at all!
When Du Xinghe and the Zhang brothers and sisters played, including when they were one-on-two, they had never felt such a strong sense of oppression, and at that moment, Du Xinghe's heart suddenly tightened, he had not felt so nervous in the arena for a long time.
This sudden nervous reaction on the body, Du Xinghe's expression had a faint abruptness, because in that kind of strong oppressive situation, he was really a little overwhelmed, after all, he was not a professional tennis player, and he really didn't know how to deal with the opponent's interception smash at the middle net.
However, just when Du Xinghe felt that this point was about to be explained, and Zheng Sai felt that this point was won steadily, that is, the moment when the ball bounced to the ground and Zheng Sai was about to volley, Zheng Sai's confident eyes suddenly froze, and Du Xinghe's return ball bounced to the ground as if he had hit something from the side, and there was an obvious rebound of the broken line! And the speed of the ball suddenly accelerates after it bounces off the ground! It's as if the ball has a soul that has suddenly awakened!
Zheng Sai was greatly surprised when he saw such a return ball, how far did the spin of the ball have reached to have such a strange rebound! This is also too perverted! With such a bad posture, he can draw such a strong spinning ball?
Zheng Sai was shocked, and hurriedly changed his shooting method, wanting to change the volley to a short hit, so as not to draw the ball away.
But because the distance is too close, the change of the ball path is too weird, Zheng Sai temporarily changed the style of play, it was too late, because he had already made a volley action, and he wanted to change the short play when he was halfway through, and the final result was that his racket was completely twisted, and he hit the ball with the racket frame, and the tennis ball was carried straight up and down by the hard racket frame, and a strange collision sound of "click" sounded, and everyone's heads looked at the sky, and the tennis ball bounced up as high as three floors in an instant.
Many people are surprised how Zheng Sai could play such an outrageous volley, because there is a distance from the field, most people didn't see Du Xinghe's return ball rebounding strangely after landing, so they all thought that Zheng Sai was his own mistake.
Zhang Yiyang and they were close to the court, and they watched it very carefully, he and Zhang Yifan both saw the changes in Du Xinghe's ball path up close. They all know that Du Xinghe's ball has strong rotation is a habitual attribute, but such an irregular bounce after bouncing on the ground is a bit anti-physical, it is estimated that the ball just reached a relatively hard particle on the plastic field after landing, thus changing the path of the ball.
Judging from the shooting method, Du Xinghe's ball is a complete topspin ball, and there is no side spin, and if there is no special situation after landing, it will only jump forward without a sidespin rebound. Only when the ball with strong rotation hits the irregular ground particles, there will be such a ball path, which is also an important factor that is most beneficial to the spinning ball play in the domestic granular plastic field.
Du Xinghe watched Zheng Sai knock the ball away from the side, and he was so surprised that he almost didn't laugh out loud. (To be continued......)
