Chapter 230: Fighting Nalbandian

"Fan Ju is still in good form from yesterday, although it is only his first time participating in the Masters series, but he is no worse than he was in the Grand Slam."

To be polite or to have high expectations? Fan Ju's performance did not surprise the audience and commentators, just like yesterday's game, it was steady, and the opponent was indeed experienced, but Fan Ju won the advantage with his racket.

The multi-shot round of the bottom line is basically Fan Ju's advantage, and grabbing the forehand position basically means the end of the round, either Fan Ju takes the initiative to score, or the opponent makes a mistake in returning the ball.

In short, Fan Ju's game was much smoother than expected.

"Maybe it's not in good shape." In the post-match interview, Fan Ju did not say any comments, as he felt that the result of the match was normal.

He played aggressively, his opponent played conservatively, his forehand was able to play suppression, causing too many mistakes on the opponent's side, and winning the match was already expected by Fan Ju at the end of the first few games, the only thing that was a little up and down was a break of the opponent in the second set, but Fan Ju had already completed it twice before that, and it did not affect the outcome of the match.

Still showing a good service form, gradually some critics who paid attention to Fan Ju began to notice the change in Fan Ju's serve, which was more stable and more lethal.

In their opinion, this will be a great help to Fan Ju serve to the net, as well as to the table on the grass, and also add a means to solve the opponent more quickly on the hard court.

"Are you alright?" Raschet sensed that Fan Ju was a little tired, perhaps because he had not played for a long time. It's a little uncomfortable to get back to the rhythm of the game all of a sudden.

Fan Ju nodded, his state was okay and his spirit was good, because he had more time. So the adjustment of the burnout period is not bad, but he is always worried about the next round.

"Today's backhand was targeted by the opponent, especially in the second half of the second set, I felt that the opponent was looking for my backhand, but after being suppressed by me, there were not many opportunities to take the initiative to attack." Fan Ju voiced his worries, and he knew that it would be better to communicate at this time than to think about it himself.

Raschet saw it too. Fan Ju rarely has this kind of play when he is targeted for a certain technique, in the past, his front and back shots and front and back court tables were relatively even, and the opponent could not find the focus of the attack.

But now. Fan Ju's forehand is obviously stronger than his backhand, and too many forehand attacks make the opponent more decisive to catch Fan Ju's backhand.

"Your backhand isn't weak, it's just relative to your forehand. There is no lethal offensive ability. When the opponent comes, resolutely fight back, and I think that's the best solution at the moment. Raschet gave advice, of course, the most fundamental thing is to strengthen the backhand attack at the same time is the solution.

The pace of the match day was fast, Fan Ju had just finished an evening match, and then he had to face another afternoon match, again because there was no doubles, if the event was tight. There is often an awkward schedule of two races in one day.

Such a rhythm of the game does not seem to have much impact on opponents who are full of body. But don't forget that the competition is not only about the body, but also about concentration and the desire to win.

If you lose badly in the singles in the morning, I am afraid that it will be difficult to cheer up in the afternoon match, unless you voluntarily give up the singles, but it will leave too much mental burden on the doubles.

The test of the fighters is often multifaceted, and Fan Ju had already received the news of Nalbandian's promotion before the match yesterday, which was expected but not the result he wanted.

Fan Ju has been thinking about how to deal with such an opponent who can target his weaknesses, but the result is very disappointing for him, except for covering up weaknesses, those so-called imaginary strategies such as using weaknesses as bait will not work in the real arena at all.

"I can only watch and fight ......" Fan Ju has come to the arena, but most of them are a little helpless.

The first impression that Nalbandian gave Fan Ju was not strong, but a feeling of thinking, maybe you can't see anything from his expression, but his eyes are firm, unlike those athletes who have no ideas, they have their own way of dealing with the game.

Fan Ju didn't guess wrong, of course Nalbandian can think, and he is also one of the few masters of tactical tennis in the tennis world, when Fan Ju observes his opponent, Nalbandian is not looking at Fan Ju.

180 cm is not tall, a cut shorter than Fan Ju, but the strong forearms and leg muscles of the body competition make him extremely explosive on the court.

"The calf muscles are obvious, the proportion of protruding muscles is extremely high, and sure enough, as shown in the data, the explosive power is extremely strong, the arms are thick, the left and right arms are similar, the balance of physical exercise is maintained very well, and there must be a professional team to help him adjust the training plan."

This is not the kind of analysis that Fan Ju can make by looking at the game data, more than looking at the background information, Nalbandian looked at Fan Ju, and at this time he was analyzing in detail the difference between the information he had obtained and the actual strength of the opponent in front of him.

Fan Ju probably couldn't have imagined that his opponent would analyze himself in such detail, or that he couldn't imagine that there would be a tennis player who would analyze each of his opponents in such detail.

Of course, compared to these external conditions, Nalbandian is more concerned about Fan Ju's terrible concentration, which is the only possibility for the opponent to break his layout, and it is also the biggest difficulty in his calculations that he cannot win Fan Ju.

The top players have their own strengths, and often rely on these skills and advantages to turn the game around on the field.

Even Fan Ju has to admit that when he encounters those top players, some targeted restraint plays are difficult to achieve.

Because the opponent's technical strength is enough to forcibly reverse this disadvantage, forehand or backhand may be like Federer's super anticipation ability that can compete with his violent state.

Fan Ju's current weapon,There is only one double speed.,Maybe the body lì can barely be regarded as the strong point of Fan Ju.,The increase in strength has an obvious increase in the forehand.,But this is only for the ordinary state category.,It's still not much different when it comes to the double speed state.,It's reluctant to restrain or even fight with those top weapons.。

Perhaps only the triple speed, which has been put down by Fan Ju for a long time, can break through this limit, but in high-level competitions, using triple speed is equivalent to overdrawing two times the speed, and the same point is obtained, but the consumption makes Fan Ju unbearable.

"Game On"

David Nalbandian waited for Fan Ju to serve, and he knew very well how many points Fan Ju had scored with his improved serve in the first two rounds, especially the accelerated inside corner serve, which was fast and heavy, mixed with some extremely troublesome topspin serves, which, when combined, could cause him great problems.

"The position is good inside, let's send the inside corner......" Fan Ju finished picking the ball and slapped the ball again, which was very elastic, making him very confident that he would play a beautiful opening serve.

The impact of the power of the serve was not small, but Fan Ju did not lose his balance, on the contrary, he skillfully used the impact and rushed directly to the net.

Nalbandian received the ball with his back, which was the most irregular and helpless action in the receiving action, barely hooking the ball with one hand, and the touch point was obviously high.

Seeing that Fan Ju had rushed to the net, there was no doubt that the ball was fruitless, and without Fan Ju's hand, the ball went directly to the bottom of the net.

The beautiful opening serve, the position, strength and speed are very accurate, and the serve is a weapon, which is the wisest decision of Fan Ju.

However, Nalbandian was unwavering, and Fan Ju made an inside corner for his position? It doesn't affect his position for the next ball.

Another inside corner serve, Fan Ju wanted to hit the opponent twice in a row, but good things can't be doubles, and the ball went directly out of bounds after wiping the net.

"You're in luck." Fan Ju's tactics today are very clear, and he rarely fights against opponents.

Especially in the face of an opponent with a world-class backhand, coupled with a comprehensive technical table with no obvious loopholes, this makes Fan Ju's pre-formulated tactics today very conservative.

Fan Ju doesn't want to lose, this is not a Grand Slam tournament after all, and the dispersed and effective use of double speed completely gives him the strength to compete with the top players.

As long as he cleverly seizes the opportunity to win two sets, he still has a chance to beat these players at the top in a best-of-three match.

The second serve is no longer in the inside corner, the speed is reduced, and it is obviously not wise to take another route to serve.

However, Nalbandian was not fooled by a low-speed fan, he saw Fan Ju's movements and stood firmly from the opening position.

It's just that at the moment when Fan Ju served, he was one step away from the baseline and pressed directly on the bottom line, obviously grabbing the landing point of the ball.

The powerful two-handed backhand can be heard by Fan Ju, and the sound of the opponent's racket and his own serve colliding at the moment comes.

However, since Fan Ju dared to serve this ball, he had already expected the judgment of the ball path, and Nalbandian's return ball was very powerful, but Fan Ju's movement speed was even faster.

A one-handed forehand straight upspin pull pulled Nalbandian straight from the right side of the court to the left side of the pitch.

However, the ability of the top players was on full display at this point, with beautiful small jumps in the move, catching the jump height of the topspin ball, and also countering with a forehand.

"Double Speed Two ......"

Fan Ju was very helpless, the moment the opponent received the hair, he had already turned on the double speed, and the fierce confrontation was completely played at double speed.

And when Nalbandian hit a high-quality powerful forehand, Fan Ju had to open up a double-speed attack, and a powerful forehand with double-speed was not enough to become a world-class killer move, but it was only one step short. (To be continued......)
