Chapter 114: I Want to Be Stronger

This is Zhang Guan's serve.

"Federer's rush! Oops, this time the angle of attack was too big, and the ball went out of bounds. Federer played a ferocious game in this game, and the continuous attack was very oppressive! Although he didn't succeed in breaking serve in the end, it still put a lot of pressure on Zhang Guan, and there were several balls, and Zhang Guan was able to hold them. ”

It was Federer's serve.

"Federer is steady, there are no flaws at all! I didn't expect Federer to completely change his style in his service game, and instead of continuing to attack, he gradually accumulated an advantage by holding the ball safely. Although Zhang Guan tried several attacks, he did not achieve good results. Federer managed to hold his serve. ”

In the studio of CCTV, the host's tone was faintly worried, and he said: "In the first few games just now, Federer strengthened his attack in Zhang Guan's service game, which made Zhang Guan tired for a while; However, Federer was very solid on his own serve, and Zhang's multiple attacks were ineffective. In the current situation, Zhang Guan is in a passive position, and both offensive and defensive ends are restrained by Federer, and he is always a little unable to open the situation. ”

Director Su immediately said, "On the surface, it looks like this, but if we analyze it at a deeper level, the situation will not be like this." In Zhang's serve, Federer attacked fiercely, but he also paid a price, that is, his errors increased. We know that the more unrestrained the style of play, the more mistakes will definitely be, and with Zhang Guan's strength, he will definitely not let go of Federer's mistakes, so we see that although Federer attacked fiercely, he did not get a break point in Zhang Guan's service game. ”

"But Federer played very steadily on his own serve!" The narrator spoke.

"That's because Federer was worried about losing serve. I think Federer realized that Zhang Guan's attack was very sharp, so he made such a choice. Su Gui smiled slightly, and then said: "With Federer's technique, if he deliberately seeks stability. It was also very difficult for Zhang Guan to complete the break. ”

"So, this set of games is likely to enter the tie-break again?" The narrator asked.

"Yes!" Director Su nodded: "And now the state of both sides looks very good, I think it will be a fierce battle to tie seven rounds!" ”

……

In the stands.

Coach Zhang Depei always had a confident smile on his face, and he firmly believed that Zhang Guan would be able to win the final victory.

"Both of them were in very good shape today. Federer, in particular, played very smart. Federer must have realized that his foot-movement ability was not as good as that of Zhang Guan, so he changed his tactics. In fact, if you talk about the forehand, Zhang Guan's forehand topspin is even better. Coach Zhang took a deep breath and then thought, "Thanks to this French Open, the clay court is a slow court." It is equivalent to the advantage of the weakened attacker in disguise, so as long as it can reduce unforced errors, it can be barely held. If this is Wimbledon, Federer is probably not so comfortable now! ”

Beside Coach Zhang, Sharapova looked at Zhang Guan with a nymphomaniac. Women of fighting nations have always been more obsessed with powerful men, and now Zhang Guan, who sweats on the field, is obviously very attractive to Sharapova.

The second set came to the tie-break again. However, the atmosphere on the court at this time was different from the tie-break in the first set.

Both Federer and Zhang Guan have a thirst for victory, and this is no longer a question of a place in a Grand Slam final. It's that they all simply hope to win occasionally, and they all have a heart that is unwilling to admit defeat.

In this tie-break, both of them were extremely focused, and both of them worked hard. They run, they hit the ball. Take every ball seriously and refuse to give up a chance.

However, there are always winners and losers in the game. In this tie-break game, the two sides played sixteen balls again, and finally Zhang Guan won the tie-break with a score of 9-7.

……

Zhang Guan won the tie-break, 2-0, Zhang Guan led Federer 2-0! In the final of the Australian Open tennis tournament in January, Zhang Guan and Federer led Federer 2-0 in the first two sets, and Zhang Guan finally won 3-0 in that match! Will today be a replica of the Australian Open final? Could it be that Zhang Guan will sweep Federer with a score of 3-0 again? Or maybe Federer fought back and let the two chase three to reverse the game? Federer is now only one French Open champion to win the Grand Slam, Federer was stopped by Nadal in the French Open final last year, and this year Federer will stop in the semifinals? ”

The commentator asked a series of questions that no one could answer now, but the final answer will be revealed in the third set.

In the first game of the third set, Zhang Guan seized the opportunity and broke first. Zhang then continued his efforts and successfully held his serve to take a 2-0 lead at the start.

……

In the players' lounge, Nadal sat back in his seat and continued to check his equipment.

"It's 2-0, although Federer played well, but Zhang Guan obviously has to play better than Federer, and the person who has the advantage of movement on the clay court really has an advantage, and it looks like my opponent in the final will be Zhang Guan!" Nadal shook his head: "Judging by the performance of both of them today, I would rather face Federer in the final. ”

Nadal has already won two consecutive French Open titles, and in his opinion, winning three in a row is a matter of course, Nadal agrees that no one in the world can organize him to win three consecutive French Open titles, not even Federer.

However, in today's semi-finals, Nadal finally felt a strong sense of threat, which came from Zhang Guan, from the in-form Zhang Guan on the TV. With the same powerful forehand and the same powerful movement, Zhang Guan is clearly more powerful than Federer at the French Open, strong enough to keep Nadal out of the French Open title.

"I'm going to be strong!" Nadal felt the momentum to move forward.

……

In the lounge on the other side, Djokovic's face was more solemn than Nadal's, and Djokovic was already shocked by Zhang Guan's performance today.

"It's so strong! Federer's strength is already strong enough, but I didn't expect Zhang Guan's strength to be even stronger! He's only a few months older than me! Djokovic couldn't stop sighing. Originally, Djokovic felt that he was the most talented player in the world, but seeing this game today and seeing the level of Zhang Guan as a peer, Djokovic felt that he still had a long way to go.

"I'm going to get stronger!" Djokovic's face was filled with a thirst for strength.

……

The game continued, Zhang Guan became more and more courageous, and Federer gradually showed his decline. After a few rounds, the score came to 5-2, which was also the match point for Zhang Guan.

Federer looked at the 5-2 scoreline, and suddenly there was a sour feeling in his heart.

"If I lose the next game, I'll say goodbye to this French Open! It looks like I still have a long way to go to the Grand Slam! Federer thought as he looked at Zhang Guan opposite.

At this time, Zhang Guan exuded a unique temperament, which was a kind of self-respecting temperament, a temperament that only athletes who stood at the top of the world would have.

"I've done my best, but I'm not Zhang Guan's opponent yet. Why is this happening? There was a hint of confusion in Federer's eyes, but the confusion lasted only a moment before disappearing.

"It's because I'm not strong enough!" Federer's expression suddenly became extremely persistent, and he found a new purpose.

"I'm going to get stronger!" (To be continued.) )
