Chapter 191: Bombing Hair Extensions
Pansiqi's unusual behavior was no less than dropping a bombshell on the court, causing an uproar in the audience. The commentator of Channel 5 was stunned for a long time without speaking, which made the audience in front of the TV think that they needed to help themselves to explain the game.
"Oh my! I think the Chinese player must be crazy. After betting on the right direction a few times, he still couldn't receive the serve, and now he is going to take a suicidal extension! The spectator, who thought he had seen through Pansiqi, was once again shocked by Pansiqi's madness.
"What exactly is he trying to do?" Anderson was also surprised to notice this small change in Pansiqi. He even wondered if it was because his serve was so ferocious that the Chinese player, who had never seen much of the world, was confused. If that's the case, then I'm sorry.
It's no wonder that everyone's reaction is so fierce, because Pansizi's small change is really shocking in the tennis game.
In the face of Anderson's rare strong serve, almost all players will subconsciously choose a slightly later receiving position than the usual return when receiving the serve, so as to increase the distance of the tennis ball, weaken the tennis ball speed at the same time, but also buy more reaction time for their own serve. And a player like natto, when facing Anderson, may even stand two or three meters behind the baseline in order to minimize the threat of the opponent's serve.
And Pansiqi's previous three serves, although they stood a small step behind the baseline, were already very aggressive in the eyes of some people. This kind of stance often means that the player still has a certain idea of receiving the serve, rather than just passively giving the ball back.
Pan Xiqi's intention, in the eyes of the audience, is naturally a manifestation of self-indulgence. In their opinion, Pansiqi should have taken two more steps back to increase his chances of a successful hair extension. In a position like his previous one, being given an ace by the opponent is simply self-inflicted.
But now, after losing three points in a row, Pansiqi not only did not repent, but braved the world's condemnation and took another step forward. This really made the audience fry, and Pansiqi's move, in their opinion, simply announced that he was about to adopt suicidal tactics in the game.
For the first time, the crowd did not remain quiet until Anderson was ready to serve. Some spectators, who were not too big of a deal, whistled into the arena to express their ridicule of Pancizi.
But looking at Pansiqi again, the reactions of everyone around him didn't seem to affect his mood in the slightest. He stood very firmly within the bottom line, concentrating on preparing for the next serve.
"Well, since you chose to commit suicide, you can't blame me." With a look of contempt on his face, Anderson started his fourth serve.
I don't know if it was stimulated by Pancic, four consecutive serves, Anderson actually did not make any mistakes. Four shots and four in-zone shots, and the speed of each ball was maintained at an extremely stable level.
The tennis ball was released, and the data of 220 kilometers per hour flashed on the display immediately. With four consecutive serves, Anderson was one of the best in his career, even on Anderson's serve.
As usual, Panci once again showed extremely amazing prediction and unbelievable movement speed. However, just when all the spectators thought that he was going to repeat the mistake of the past and accept the fate of failing to return the serve again, an accident appeared on the court.
The moment the tennis ball bounced off the ground and flew in front of Pansic, Pansic was in time for the first time. This time, he's in place. In the midst of everyone's incredulous expressions, Pansic threw a dashing one-handed backhand swing back against the opponent's explosive serve.
This ball Pansiqi can be regarded as a clever play, because the force exerted by the opponent on the tennis ball is already very terrifying, so if Pansiqi forcibly confronts it, the effect will not be good. Now, with a subtle swing of his backhand, Panci fully borrowed the opponent's huge power, and the tennis ball flew towards Anderson at an extremely ferocious speed.
Because the power of this return serve is so great, in the eyes of the audience, this ball is like a forehand attack that Panci has carefully prepared and spent plenty of time to blast with maximum power. In reality, however, the ball was just the effect of Pansiqi receiving it with a one-handed backhand.
At this time, the broadcasters of the US Open showed their advanced broadcast technology. At the bottom of the TV screen, a line of yellow letters shows the speed of the ball returned by Panci on this return. 170 km/h, that's the answer Pansiqi gave to everyone.
"A 170km return serve, oh my God, it's even more unbelievable than a 220km serve!" The commentator, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly shouted excitedly.
However, the matter was far from over, and Pansiqi blasted a straight shot with a one-handed backhand on this return. This also means that Pancich is aiming for the return to score directly. The tennis ball flew straight along the left sideline, and after drawing a perfect arc, it smashed very precisely into the corner of the baseline on the other side of Anderson.
There was no press line, no out of bounds, and about five centimeters from the sideline, the tennis ball smashed very clearly into the court and then flew out of the court. At this time, the division line behind Anderson quickly put his hands together and made a gesture in the boundary.
Looking at Anderson, one of the protagonists, it seems that he has just completed the serve restoration action at this time, and he doesn't even have time to see where the opponent's serve falls, let alone make corresponding defensive moves. Besides, even if Anderson was aware of Panciczy's intentions, with that horrible return speed, with his somewhat awkward movements, he would not have been able to move in place anyway.
"40:15, in the first game, Anderson leads." I don't know if it's an illusion, but the referee's voice is a little higher than before.
The spectators on the sidelines fell silent at this point, because they couldn't understand what had just happened. With Pansiqi's forward position, he can still complete such a wonderful return serve and score directly, all of this seems so unreasonable.
"Could it really be that God has appeared, such a small probability, and actually made the Chinese players bet right?" The audience before began to doubt life.
At this time, the biggest impact in my heart should be Anderson on the field. Never before in his career has he been picked up by an opponent with such an unsolvable return when his serve is so good. In his opinion, Pansiqi's ball just now was not picked up at all, but exploded.
"Evil door, what a fucking evil door!" Anderson muttered.
