Chapter 336: You Come and I Go
"Andy, how are you feeling today?" In the locker room, Fan Ju tied his shoelaces, saw Roddick walking in the door, and asked with a smile.
"Very good, I'm afraid you're going to lose again today." Roddick is like a big boy, don't look at his 20s, but in terms of Fan Ju, he feels more like a high school student.
Full of passion and excitement, of course, this kind of character also has a problem, if you are in a bad mood, it will be easy to image the state to play, and become an unstable dìng dynamite bag.
"Lose? Not necessarily, do you want to break through my bottom line today? Don't forget, you haven't hit an ace in my game yet, speed alone isn't enough. Fan Ju laughed, not caring about the difference in the playing style of the two, perhaps it was precisely because of Fan Ju's outspoken personality that he would hate his players in the tennis world.
Roddick thought for a moment and nodded, his high-speed serve really couldn't break Fan Ju's bottom line, and he even doubted that even if he hit a 250-kilometer serve, if the angle was not enough, he would not pose a threat to Fan Ju.
Indeed, the 250-kilometer serve is only 187 kilometers in Fan Ju's opinion, if it flies directly to himself, of course, it is the same as an ordinary hair extension, at most, it is not to take advantage, or to fly out of bounds, it is really impossible to break through.
But Fan Ju also understands that it is not impossible for him to be hit with an ace, even at double speed, if the opponent's serve exceeds 220 kilometers, and it is still a precise serve at a great angle, even if his double speed can be raised, his body may not be able to catch up with the speed of the ball.
But fortunately, there are no players who can play such a serve in the tennis world, or in the game. These players are also intimidated by Fanju's ability to receive, and they have restrained their service power and focused their efforts on better angles. So Fan Ju did not encounter such an extreme serve.
You can laugh off the field, but after arriving at the player's passage, the two are not communicating, one after the other, they just walk towards the arena, and in the period after that, after all, one person is going to fail. And one will win.
In order to get better ratings, the game was played in the evening of American time. And the result of another game has already been given.
Coria defeated Gonzalez in a comeback after losing the first set, which meant that the winner of the match. He will face world No. 4 Gilmorecoria in the final. Gained a huge advantage before the start of the game.
Coria has never won a hard court title in the past season, and his best result was a lucky final at the Miami Masters, where he is a pure clay defensive player who rarely even plays doubles.
"Whoever wins this game will probably have a great chance of winning the championship, so let's look forward to the result of this game!" The broadcast from the American side was enthusiastic. It's not like you're commenting on tennis, it's more like DJing in a nightclub. It stimulates the auditory nerves of the audience.
The camera is aimed at Fan Ju, the position is very low, you can clearly see the arc of the ball when the two are warming up, the forehand is low and powerful, and the backhand is slightly arcing, both of them seem to move softly, but the ball speed is not slow at all, the power is strong, and the explosiveness is full, which is definitely the competition between the two major power players in the tennis world.
The referee is always paying attention to the two players, and he also knows that the speed and pace of today's game will not be too slow, which will increase the difficulty of his law enforcement, and even inevitably make some misjudgments.
Which side to go? I'm afraid it's not what he needs to think about today, this semi-final is no less than the final, he can only be fair, whether it is because Roddick is an American player or not, he can only judge this match according to the most instinctive standards.
"It's game on." When he made this sound, both fighters were ready.
Roddick was about to serve, but the crowd on the sidelines began to make a noise, not to disturb the players, but just excited, excited about the match.
Roddick took the ball and glanced at the referee, and the referee was not slow, using a microphone that could be heard all over the court, making the whole game quiet.
Fan Ju saw Roddick's standard pre-serve movements, subtle and dense body shaking, his knees were like springs pressed down, and he was about to squat down, and the explosive power of the serve produced was unmatched by anyone in the tennis world, this is the world's top serving player, Andy Roddick.
"A little bit worse!" In the middle of the ball, Fan Ju seized the moment, the racket was rubbed quickly, and on the dim court above, the fans who were sitting farther away even lost the position of the ball.
When the ball flashed out and landed, Roddick's body rushed to the net, and he didn't expect that Fan Ju actually put a surprise ball for himself in the opening.
The ball is short and spins very strongly, and to counteract the power of Roddick's serve, Fan Ju needs to use all his strength.
After landing on the ground, he was only less than half a meter away from the net, Roddick rushed forward, but he didn't have time to brake, and the racket and the ball hit the net directly with the whole person, and finally stopped, and there was a slightly regretful drum noise from the sidelines.
"Huh, it's really lucky, the power borrowed was unexpectedly effective." Fan Ju took a deep breath, this time it wasn't his hair extension, it was too lucky.
In the face of Roddick's more than 210 serves, Fan Ju could not do this no matter how good he was, and he could only cut the ball high because of his fast speed, but the dim court helped him hide the ball.
However, Roddick immediately returned a blow from Fan Ju, which was in the outer corner, facing Fan Ju's backhand high-speed serve, and went back to the net directly, so happy that he didn't have anything to say.
"Sure enough, not to be underestimated." Two consecutive serve points, Fan Ju was suppressed enough by the outside corner, the ball speed was fast enough and the strength was big enough, as long as Roddick's own serve was not wrong, even Fan Ju was extremely difficult to play an efficient return.
But when Roddick made a mistake and Fan Ju thought that the opportunity came, the forehand that made Fan Ju vigilant began to attack!
Unlike Srichapan's hesitation, Roddick was very confident in his forehand, pressing Fan Ju head-on, and the connection after the second serve did not seem hesitant at all.
Even with a speed of more than 180 kilometers on his second serve, he led the score and allowed him to use his weapons more freely, which gave Roddick a huge advantage in his serve, and his forehand connection was more fluid.
Two beats! Roddick pressed two forehands in a row, and suddenly a backhand returned, Fan Ju saw the opportunity, changed his position, and made a forehand to prepare to attack the reverse corner.
"Oh! Not good! "As soon as the ball came out, Fan Ju knew that it was wrong, and this mistake was more like what he saw in Srichapan, it was exactly the same, but the side of the scoring became Roddick, and it was himself who made the mistake.
The game point, this is only two minutes into the beginning, the game has come to the end of the first game, the two of the two are limited to the two just now, Roddick as he said, it feels good, because only Roddick who feels good can play such a smooth service game.
There is no ace, but there are two serve points directly, Roddick is already very satisfied, both are difficult high-speed serve in the outside corner, he knows that only this kind of serve can make Fan Ju make a return error.
"Challenge, I like it!" Roddick was pleased, but retribution came.
Outer corners? Fan Ju found a little pattern, which of course was not useful, but it could make him more efficient at catching the ball.
As soon as Roddick flew, Fan Ju was extremely concentrated, and his body had already shifted his center of gravity to the outer corner in advance, and even the racket was placed a little further to the right than before.
The ball speed is still so fast, but Fan Ju doesn't need too many extra movements, and the time saved may be less than 0.2 seconds, but this determines the outcome of the ball.
"Ahh The beautiful bottom line extension of the forehand is incredible. ”
Roddick was different from the excited host, he was just happy, but he was immediately discouraged, Fan Ju went straight back, directly pressed on the bottom line, and he almost bent over to receive the ball.
The ball has already fallen to the ground before it touches the net belt, and the hair extension! It reminded him of Fan Ju's unforgettable weapon.
"There must be a way to break through his bottom line, damn it, can't you keep hitting the outside corner?" Roddick was also thinking about how to break the game, just three balls into the outside corner, and he caught the opportunity for the opponent, which was too fast.
A mistake in the inside corner, Roddick wanted to dodge, but often the more he hid, the easier it was to make mistakes, Fan Ju stared at Roddick's second serve, he knew that this was a critical time for him to equalize the score.
"Is it the outer corner again?"
When the ball came out, the angle was already obvious, and Fan Ju remembered his first shot, the extremely deep cut ball, and the action was completed in an instant in his mind.
Unlike the first extension, Fan Ju stretched his backhand and cut the ball very deeply, landing less than half of the service boundary, and he expected that Roddick's ball would definitely be in a hurry.
Rushing forward, Roddick picked up the shot and attacked directly in a straight line, without much preparation, but in his opinion, there was no opponent in front of him, so it became a position that could be attacked.
Roddick's body is tilted to the right side, obviously trying to defend Fan Ju to hit a diagonal cross, but at this time it can't be as his opponent wants.
Baseline crossing and volleying in front of the net are the same in the end, and if you give your opponent a second shot, then it means that you have failed to return the ball this time.
The ball was released by Fan, who knew the choice Roddick could make, and it was also the blueprint he sketched in a split second, waiting for his opponent to unknowingly fall into the trap.
Less than 40 centimeters above the left side of Roddick's head, Fan Ju's return ball directly crossed this close angle and pressed on the bottom line, accurately taking advantage of the opponent's misjudgment, and this ball was no longer won by regret to Roddick, but warm applause and encouragement!
"Deuce!" (To be continued......)
