Chapter 275: "Full-fledged" Busta
In the first game, Busta served first. He still seems quite confident about his service level. Although he doesn't have the same perverted serve as Pancizi's previous opponents, Anderson and Querrey, Busta's serve can still pose a great threat to opponents through subtle landing changes, which is an important aspect of his perception that he is stronger than Ferrer.
On the first ball, he wanted to set the tone of the match with a beautiful serve. 205 km/h, not very fast, but good enough. What's more, the shot landed on the sideline of the outside corner of the zone, and it looked like a perfect combination of speed and landing.
"Beautiful, although Busta's serve is not the kind of extreme ball speed that can easily exceed 220 kilometers, but when combined with the landing point, the threat caused by it is not small." ESPN's commentary couldn't help but admire.
Seeing that he had entered the realm, Busta was overjoyed and immediately decided to start the plan he had already envisioned. In his mind, once his first serve hits, it will be difficult for the opponent to return a high-quality return. In this way, he has a good chance to launch a sideways attack directly in the next shot.
Busta, who was thinking about which direction to attack in the opposite direction, changed his face after seeing Pansiqi's return ball, and his smug expression disappeared without a trace. It turned out that Panci did not return a low-quality shallow return as he expected, but actually returned a low and flat return through the cutting of the backhand position.
If Querrey had seen Pancizi's chipping, he would have felt very depressed. It was with this change of hand that Pancici forced Querrey to lose his opening heat due to too many offensive errors. Now, it's Busta who is tackling the problem.
Seeing Pansizzi so lightly dissolve his perfect serve, Busta was very depressed. But he wasn't very afraid of Pansizi's chipping. After all, unlike a rough man like Quirrey, he focuses on comprehensiveness, and he is still prepared for various situations on the field.
Quickly approaching the ball's landing point, lowering his center of gravity, and at the same time holding the racket in his hand to wrap the tennis ball and lift it up heavily, Busta safely returned the downspin ball. Not only that, but because the topspin exerted on the tennis ball is very strong, the tennis ball makes a beautiful arc and lands precisely near the bottom corner on the other side of Pansiqi's receiving position.
"Wonderful, what a wonderful response! Faced with Pansiqi's downspin ball, Busta chose the most correct way to deal with it. Not only that, but it can be seen that his topspin ball is hugely powerful. After the tennis ball lands, it will definitely cause Pansiqi a lot of trouble. Spain is worthy of being the strongest country on clay, and the topspin of the Spanish player is really difficult for the opponent to parry! The ESPN commentary is still full of praise for Busta's return.
Sure enough, as he said, after the ball hit the ground, the tennis ball quickly rebounded and jumped upwards due to the strong topspin. However, just when everyone thought that Pancich would not be able to defend in time before the tennis ball bounced to the best position, Panci appeared near the tennis ball at some point. Not only that, but he even shot early during the rise of tennis. This also means that he actually used a fast-paced attack in this shot.
Pancizi's fast-paced forehand hit a straight backhand from Busta, and the tennis ball flew flat and fast towards Busta's left baseline. This frightened Busta's soul into the sky, and his powerful topspin attack not only did not work, but allowed Panci to steal a straight line attack, which was definitely a big surprise to him.
Fortunately, the position he was in when he shot before was in the middle of the baseline, so it was not too far from the landing point of Pancic's attack. But even then, he had to use his strongest pace to save the ball.
With two long legs, Busta sped away on the Hot Wheels-like corner of the super left corner. Such a rapid movement even drew an exclamation from the crowd on the sidelines. However, when he was about to get there, Busta was depressed to find that he was still a small step away from being fully in place. In desperation, he gritted his teeth and used the uncommon hard sliding technique, and forced his position to reach the best hitting position.
"Oh my goodness! Busta actually used the sliding technique! This is a common type of movement on clay, and the slippery force of clay can be used to speed up the arrival of the player. This technique is still very rare to use on hard surfaces, after all, hard surfaces are not like red clay, which is very difficult to slide and puts many times more pressure on the athlete's ankles. I have to say that with Busta's height of nearly 1.9 meters, it is really rare to have such a movement ability and sliding technique. Busta's sliding step once again surprised ESPN's commentators.
After being forced into place, Busta doubled back with a violent volley and unleashed a ferocious diagonal attack. Obviously, Busta vented all his anger on this beat, and looking at this stance, he was going to directly slap Pansiqi on the opposite side through this beat.
"It's a violent backhand attack, and this kind of attack reminds me of the previous Argentine star Nalbandian. It can be said that Busta's backhand shot has already been seventy or eighty percent of his power. The ESPN commentator continued to boast non-stop.
"This time, this time it's time to get it!" After venting, Busta looked at Pansiqi with some hideousness.
However, in the next second, a frightened expression immediately appeared on his face. Because he saw that Pansiqi on the opposite side was in place again ahead of schedule. Not only that, in the face of his violent attack, Pansiqi did not panic at all, but showed a mysterious smile. Immediately afterwards, Pansiqi held the racket in one hand, aiming at the incoming ball and everything was heavy.
"Oh no, it's a ball in front of the net!" Realizing Pansiqi's intentions, Busta didn't have time to think about it, and immediately ran towards the net. Fortunately, for some reason, Pansiqi's small ball was not very close to the net, and it left him with a hint of the possibility of saving the ball.
Holding his breath, Busta rushed to the net as fast as he could, and before the tennis ball hit the ground twice, the general returned the ball. Not only that, but he also schemingly returned a small slash in front of the net, wanting to reverse Pansiqi with a small ball in front of the net.
"Wonderful, I really didn't expect that after such a long-distance run, Busta could actually think of releasing a small ball against the opponent. And looking at his handling techniques, his skills in front of the net should also be very good. The ESPN's commentary has come up again.
Before he could finish speaking, Pansic appeared ghostly in front of the net. Glancing at the opposite Busta, Panci held the racket in his right hand, and the paddle side was slightly blocked diagonally upward, and the slash ball that Busta returned turned into a perfect overhead high ball in his hand.
"Heck, Pansiqi seemed to have been prepared for the ball, breaking through Busta's blockade in front of the net with an overhead ball and winning the first point of the game. I have to say that this semi-final is really worth the audience's expectations! ESPN commentator said excitedly.
However, in his heart, there was still a trace of doubt. Perfect serve, excellent forehand topspin, amazing pace movement, violent backhand attack, skilful ball in front of the net, how did Busta lose that point in the end, so well-rounded.
(Halep has finally made his French Open dream come true!) She's really an amazing athlete, and I didn't like her style of play before, I thought it was too weak. But when she missed the Grand Slam one after another and still persevered in her hard work, she was gradually moved by her, and hoped that she could get a Grand Slam. Tonight's result can only be described in four words, that is, heaven's reward! Congratulations again to Halep! Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
