Chapter 122: Let's go first
After falling behind 0-30, Djokovic did not give up, and there was another double fault on the serve in the first zone, which surprised everyone in the audience, the ATP is not a WTA, and it is rare to make two double faults in one game, let alone a top player like Djokovic.
The appearance of the break point calmed Djokovic a little, and the next ball was served according to the usual routine, and it went into bounds steadily.
Djokovic is not fighting, this time it is Xiao Ji's turn to fight, 3 consecutive break points are worth his fight, as long as he fights 1 is enough.
The unreasonable forehand made Djokovic very embarrassed, allowing him to run back and forth on both ends of the baseline, and finally won the winning point with a beautiful return ball, breaking serve with lovegame and taking the lead.
On the way to change sides, Djokovic shook the beat several times, looking very annoyed, this script is wrong.
After venting a little, Djokovic comforted himself: "It's just a game that has been broken, the game has just begun, don't panic, just break this game."
In the receiving game, Djokovic improved his concentration and was well prepared in the receiving position, which also allowed him to capture Xiao Ji's serve trajectory in an instant and attack decisively.
The body is very comfortable, the tennis ball is in the dessert of the racket, this is a textbook hair extension, but unfortunately Djokovic's mentality is wrong, he is still too impatient, the angle is too big, and the landing point is slightly beyond the boundary.
This return scared Xiao Ji, he just finished serving and hasn't adjusted it, the opponent's return ball has actually come, the quality is still so high, if he really scores, he won't have time to react, fortunately this time he is lucky.
In the next ball, Xiao Ji's serve quality was not bad, and Djokovic boldly chose to move early, he paid the price for his arrogance, he guessed the wrong direction, and it was too late to adjust the center of gravity at this time, so he gave Xiao Ji an ace in vain.
This ace came by luck, the quality of the serve itself was completely substandard to the ace, and it was all born from Djokovic's mistakes.
Xiao Ji didn't take this ace seriously, the on-site director and audience didn't care so much, ace is ace after all, the annular LED screen immediately appeared with ace's cool animation, and the audience also cooperated to send warm applause.
Djokovic only felt that the applause was like a slap in his face, and he wanted the ace to be unsuccessful, but the opponent inexplicably got the ace casually, and his mentality gradually became unbalanced.
Djokovic's performance was all seen by Xiao Ji on the other side, he felt very familiar like this, isn't it the appearance of a goalkeeper who was ravaged by him on the football field and helpless?
This is the rhythm of the mentality that is about to collapse.
Xiao Ji felt that his hope of winning for the first time became quite big, to be honest, he was not very optimistic about this game before the game, he knew his own level, and it is probably the level of the top 10 of the ATP at present, and there is still a gap with Djokovic, and the odds of winning against a hot Djokovic are really worrying, and now it is obviously not a normal Djokovic, and it is still more certain to beat a Djokovic who is out of proportion.
The next few points of the game were more decent, Xiao Ji had two unforced errors, but also won a winning point, and also pressed Djokovic to make a forced error, both sides scored two points each, Xiao Ji successfully held serve.
In the third game, Djokovic was still impatient, and Xiao Ji seized the opportunity to break serve again.
For example, it came to 3-0 all of a sudden, and the world No. 1 couldn't win a game in front of a newcomer in the tennis world, which was completely contrary to the prediction of the brick family before the game.
It wasn't until the fifth game that Djokovic finally got the first set point, avoided an embarrassing zero, and tried to blow the horn of counterattack, and did create a break point in Xiao Ji's service game next, and then Xiao Ji scored a straight serve, a domineering forehand winning point, and instantly eliminated the crisis, Djokovic himself made another mistake and still couldn't break serve.
The seventh game was Djokovic's smoothest game, Xiao Ji saw that his serve was in good shape, and he didn't exert too much force in this game, and was ready to concentrate on winning his next service game.
Although he has the advantage of two breaks, even if this game is broken, there is still a chance, Xiao Ji does not dare to be careless, and strives to win this set as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
Both sides played at a high level in this crucial game, and the score was very anxious, coming to 40-30, Xiao Ji's handicap.
The fact that the first serve did not go out of bounds gave Djokovic hope, and he was going to steal the second serve.
"Bang."
With a crisp shot, Djokovic knew that he had hit, and he was overjoyed and immediately followed up on the net.
The quality of this hair extension is extremely high, Xiao Ji has already adjusted it for the first time, and only then did he reach the ball and reluctantly pushed the ball over.
The ball had no speed or spin, and Djokovic only needed an easy volley in front of the net, which was a shot that was not difficult for an amateur, but Djokovic just intercepted the ball onto the belt and the ball bounced back into Djokovic's court.
At a critical moment, Djokovic's poor skills in front of the net dragged his feet again!
There was a burst of exclamations from the audience, and no one expected Djokovic to volley the ball into the net, and even they felt sorry for it.
Xiao Ji didn't expect this unexpected surprise, and after confirming that he had won the game, he returned to his rest area.
Djokovic was still standing still, "I just buried the first set? ”
At this time, the tennis ball slowly rolled to his feet, and the angry Djokovic couldn't control his emotions anymore, and directly slammed it on the net belt, all of which were damn net belts!
The referee understands Djokovic's emotions at this time very well and has a little sympathy, but unfortunately this is not a reason why you can smash the net, and decisively gave Djokovic a warning.
Djokovic, who was warned, became more and more angry, and the racket unfortunately became his punching bag, and he smashed the ground several times in succession, until the racket was completely deformed, and he could no longer see the original appearance.
Xiao Ji witnessed Djokovic's wrestling process throughout the whole process, he did not relax his vigilance because of this, among the four kings, Nadal never wrestled the racket, Federer and Murray rarely wrestled the racket, but Djokovic often wrestled the racket, his number of wrestling rackets is considered to be too many among all players, among which there must be reasons for anger, but there is no other purpose, maybe it is to confuse Xiao Ji, so that Xiao Jizhen thinks that Djokovic's mentality has completely collapsed.
