Chapter 210: Intermission

"3:0, in the first set, Baghdatis leads." After the long cheers of the crowd gradually subsided, the referee reported the latest score.

"The forehand assault in the middle of the line just now is completely at the peak level of Baghdatis. I still remember the first set of the 2006 Australian Open final, and it was with the magic of his forehand that Baghdatis was able to win the first set in front of the world's audience, causing big trouble for Roger, who was unbeatable at the time. After watching the ball just now, the CCTV commentator gasped.

"Panci is now 3-0 down and there is no sign of any dip in form from Baghdatis. In this way, in the first set, Pansizi's hope of getting back was extremely slim. The CCTV commentator was a little depressed. It can be heard that for this game, he is still inclined to support his own players to win.

"It's really boring, when I heard him say such big things, although I thought it was crazy, I thought he at least had some real skills. Now it seems that this year's competition has come to an end. finally has such a good news hotspot, and after he loses, it is estimated that everyone will forget about it in a few days. In the stands, CCTV reporter Qian Xiaojia was a little disappointed with the result of the game. Of course, this is not because she supports Pansic, but simply regrets that she is about to lose a news hotspot.

According to her idea, if Panci can go one or two more rounds, it can give them more time to let the news continue to ferment and attract the attention of more viewers. But now, it looks like the dream is going to be shattered in advance.

With a ninety-second break, Panci needed to take advantage of the opportunity to calm himself down. Wiping the sweat from his forehead and taking another sip of water, Pansic began to think back to the past three games.

The first game was all about luck, and I had nothing to say. But in the last two games, it was completely a mistake to deal with it. In tennis, if the opponent is gaining momentum, how to play, experienced players tend to avoid the edge and will not go head-to-head. Because at this time, momentum and luck are not on your side, and going head-to-head with your opponent will often make you lose the game faster.

However, many young players who are just starting out are prone to this mistake. They are strong in blood, and they are at an age when they are not afraid of heaven and earth, and they hardly take anyone in their eyes. Therefore, when being suppressed by the opponent, it is often easy to directly compete with the opponent because of the willfulness. And the final result is self-evident, it is through such losses again and again that they can gradually grow into mature players with strong hearts.

But now, Pansic couldn't accept that he had made the same mistakes that young people tend to make. Although judging from the time of his debut, he is a complete tennis rookie; But in terms of actual age and self-psychological cognition, Pansiqi has long regarded himself as a veteran.

A veteran, no matter what scene he encounters, should not be out of proportion. But Pan Xiqi in the first few rounds obviously didn't do this. In the face of Baghdatis's aggressive attack, Panci did not adjust his strategy in time and maneuver with the opponent, but still followed the previous line of thought, wanting to seize the initiative into his own hands.

Some readers may find it strange that Pansic has been pressed and beaten before, and it is not clear that he wants to seize the initiative. That's because although he is passive in defense most of the time, in his defense, there is actually a hidden scheming.

For example, the ball he bounced on the ground before, although it seems that he is very passive, the goal of his rebound is to directly turn passive into active by grabbing time. It can be said that this bounce ball is actually very aggressive. It is precisely because of this that even after seeing Baghdatis come to the net, he insisted on using this technique.

Another example is the ball facing the second break point, Baghdatis has blocked most of the line in front of the net, and it will be extremely difficult for Pancich to cross it. At this time, if he is not bent on regaining the initiative as soon as possible, but just wants to delay the round, he can actually pick up an overhead high ball, which will be much better than if he directly returned the ball to the net.

Every point in the first three games was replayed over and over again in Pansiqi's mind, and Pansiqi, who calmed down, found that the points he lost were not actually completely out of chance, but purely because his emotions were out of control and caused the wrong choice. If he was absolutely calm, he still had many ways to solve the dilemma at that time.

"The main reason is that I am too anxious and want to take the lead back into my own hands through active change. If I have the patience to play a long battle with the opponent, with my defensive ability, the opponent will not be able to score so easily. Eventually, Pansiqi came to the above conclusion.

At this time, Pansiqi suddenly remembered the Australian Open final in '06 that he had just watched yesterday. In that game, the opening cow was in a very similar situation to herself, facing a crazy Baghdatis.

In the first set, Baghdatis was full of firepower, not only with a super forehand attack, but also with a two-handed backhand that was extremely sharp. And the cow was in high spirits at that time, and he who did not believe in evil was also aroused by his opponent, and the two began to fight each other with bayonets.

Much like this game, the opening momentum was completely on the side of Baghdatis. Although the cow is also very energetic, he still loses in a head-to-head clash with his opponent without the blessing of luck. It can be said that the cows responded in the same way as Pansiqi and was a big reason for the loss of the first set.

However, in the second set, the cow suddenly adjusted his tactics, no longer fighting with the opponent, but instead focused on fighting. In the stalemate, seeing the opportunity, the cow is not in a hurry to attack, but through a steady defense to smooth out the opponent's sharpness little by little.

Slowly, as the rounds went on, it became more and more difficult for Baghdatis to play effective attacks. Over the course of the rounds, the cows' technical versatility was revealed, and the balance of the game shifted in favor of the cows.

Sure enough, Baghdatis, who had been depleted of momentum, was like a deflated ball and completely lost its competitiveness in the last three sets. With proper tactics, the cow easily won three sets in a row and won the singles championship of the Australian Open that year.

"Damn it! Roger has already set the best example, how can I still make the same mistake! Thinking of this, Pansey patted his head in annoyance.
