Chapter 348: Roddick's Night Attack
"Did you win?" Fan Ju sat in the car and couldn't help but think about the race that had just ended, not so much a technical and tactical victory, but mentally he survived to the end, while Roddick collapsed at the last minute.
Whether Roddick is in the best form or not, Fan Ju doesn't know, but he knows that he did win this semi-final, maybe the next time they meet, the outcome will be completely different, but then how to win is to win.
At the press conference, those reporters looked excited, Fan Ju had not forgotten it, obviously after defeating Roddick, Fan Ju's status in their eyes had improved again.
It's not about winning this match, it's not about beating a player, but after this match, finishing runner-up will add at least 350 points to surpass Agassi's total points and jump to the fifth top player in the world.
In terms of points, Coria, who is second only to Federer, Roddick, Ferrero and Fan Ju in the finals, started the competition at the beginning of this year, and to the current results, even if they do not play the next game, they can guarantee that they will still have more than 1,000 points at the end of the year.
First Schutler, then Henman, then Agassi, and now Roddick, Fan Ju's growth path has defeated one strong opponent after another, each of whom has top strength, and Fan Ju is only less than 19 years old, and a future tennis star is rising, no! It should be said that it has risen in the tennis world.
"Tired?" After taking a shower and resting for a while, Fan Ju gradually felt a little sleepy, after all, it was already more than 9 o'clock after the game. By the time the chores were resolved, it was already over 10 points.
The consumption of the body lĂŹ has relaxed the spirit. All of them made Fan Ju gradually start to get tired, and the originally concentrated and tense spirit gradually relaxed.
"Knock knock!" Just as Fan Ju was about to rest, there was a knock on the door, and Fan Ju wondered who would come to him at this time, after all, Yan Ximu had already returned to New York, and his parents had returned to China a few days ago, except for his team. But there is no second person who will come to him, or at this time.
Well? Looking out through the doorway, he knew the people who came. Isn't this the same Roddick he met in the previous game?
"Hello, Andy, what's the matter?" Fan Ju didn't know what Roddick was doing when he came to him, but he couldn't have lost the game. Don't be convinced to fight with yourself, right?
Roddick smiled awkwardly: "Haven't slept yet?" â
Don't! You knocked on the door, how can you still sleep. Fan Ju actually hung a Do Not Disturb door sign, but Roddick apparently didn't "notice" this.
"Come in and sit, would you like something to drink?" Fan Ju let Roddick in, and looking at the other party's appearance, Fan Ju was at least sure that he was definitely not here to find fault.
Whoever is going to fight first asks if you are asleep, and it is the right thing to do with a punch in the face.
"No, sorry, I felt a little uncomfortable at the end of the game just now, no congratulations on winning the game." Roddick was sorry at first. Of course, that's not what he's talking about.
"It's okay, I want to hit my opponent's head with my racket when I lose. I understand. Fan Ju smiled and took out a bottle of Coke in the hotel refrigerator, anyway, the organizing committee checks out, as long as you don't call room service indiscriminately, the things in the room can be used casually.
"Thank you, well...... I have something I want to ask you, and of course it's okay not to answer. Roddick didn't refuse, but didn't open it after the result, but looked at Fan Ju and continued.
Sure enough, Fan Ju guessed that there must be something wrong with coming to him in the middle of the night, and it was more likely to have something to do with the game just now, and this question might also involve some privacy issues, which was so awkward when he landed Roddick.
Fan Ju felt that there was nothing else to hide except for double speed, so he nodded immediately.
"Do you think I still have a chance if I switch to serve and go to the net? Don't laugh, I mean seriously, I think if I combine my serve with the net, it will definitely work better. Roddick was serious, but Fan Ju almost laughed.
Fan Juxin said that you are really obsessed, didn't you just lose the Internet in the competition?
"Andy, do you think your Internet is better than mine?" Fan Ju thought about it and couldn't say no directly, so maybe this person would fall deeper and deeper, and after thinking about it, he took it out and gave an example first.
Roddick thought seriously and shook his head.
"What about Sampras? Or is it Henman? In the face of Fan Ju's questioning, Roddick shook his head more and more frequently, and it was obvious that these answers were obvious.
"So, Andy, do you say there's anyone in this world who serves better and faster than you?" Fan Juyi turned his head away from the topic of the Internet and led Roddick to himself, a question that might be answered by Asians and be humble, but Roddick would not.
"Of course my serve is the best!" The answer is likely, and Roddick replied with great confidence, even though there are many good serve players in the tennis world, but he is confident, there is no doubt about that.
Fan Ju saw his opponent's expression and smiled.
"If you know you're not as good as us online, why are you going this way, just because of your serve? I don't think it's for you, and if you play the net from the beginning today, I'm afraid you won't even be able to hold the second set. â
Fan Ju is telling the truth, Roddick's front of the net, how to describe it, there is no talent, the feeling of grasping the timing is not good, maybe it will get better after training, but it is not realistic to want to form a 1+1 greater than 2 effect with his serve, in his opinion.
It is expected that in front of the net, it is better to further strengthen your bottom line, practice your backhand well, and make the offensive range of your forehand larger, rather than blindly relying on strong play to suppress the score.
Roddick has a talent that ordinary people don't have, which is given to him by God, but how to play his limits is not something that others can control.
Roddick is gone, and Fan Ju is left with a question, how should he continue to become stronger, the bottom line, or strengthen his already proud Internet? This may be an interesting question.
The unexpected guest let Fan Ju sleep a little late, so that there was no game the next day, Fan Ju could rest better, although Coria is not a master of hard courts, but he can't be negligent, the championship is just around the corner, if he kicks the door empty, then it is really empty and happy.
"The next step is to go back to China, the Big Davis Cup, and then Rome, Hamburg, Monaco and the French Open, I can't stop for a moment." After calculating the itinerary, the next moment I will have to take a global jet lag trip, which is not a comfortable thing.
Adjusting jet lag is very tiring, the body is not controlled at all, even if the effect of choosing drugs is not good, lavender extract, massage to relax the muscles, although it can help to fall asleep, but at night it will wake up uncontrollably several times, and finally lead to poor sleep quality throughout the whole time, not to reach the best state.
"Just get used to it." This is the answer that Fan Ju got after asking many other players, and it is clear that these players who want to fly around the world like himself are facing the same problem as himself.
But I really can't get used to it, Fan Ju's double speed is also restored by sleep, although as long as the brain rests, the double speed can be restored, but it will affect the use of double speed.
The most obvious thing is that the efficiency of speeding up at double speed, and the efficiency of switching gears at double speed, will be slower than in the past, which may not seem like much, but it is definitely a fatal trouble in the race.
"I heard that there is a professor at Harvard who is doing research in this area, and I will introduce it to you in a while." Fan Juzhi didn't take the initiative to ask, but he got this vague answer when he was on vacation in New York with Professor Morrismo, that is, Caroline's father, some time ago, and made up for some missed courses and studies, and he didn't pay attention to it at first.
But who would have thought that before his stay in Miami was over, he got this phone from Perry.
Fan Ju thought about it, but he still planned to fight, after all, it was introduced by Professor Morrismo, so he couldn't just leave it alone.
Of course, if it comes to some over-the-counter medications, Fan Ju will definitely choose to refuse, after all, he is a competitive athlete, and the impact of these unknown drugs on him will be very severe.
Once an ingredient is banned as a banned drug, even if it is submitted immediately, it will be affected.
"Hello, is this Professor Fowler?" On the other end of the phone came a male voice, about 40 feelings, a little high-pitched, and the spirit sounded very good.
Fan Ju introduced himself first, of course, it was obvious that Professor Fowler already knew Fan Ju's identity, and he was very happy, if his research had a real athlete to cooperate, this would really have practical value.
"The body's sleep adjustment is arranged by the biological clock, and my team has been studying how the biological clock determines the time, and traditional sleep aids contain a lot of melatonin, which can help people fall asleep, but if they consume too much, they can cause dizziness, which is obviously not the result we want." Professor Fowler explained the principles of sleep, including the role of melatonin.
"Yes, I hope to rely on normal sleep to adjust for jet lag, if the competition requires it, the interval may only be 1 or 2 days, I have also tried some prescription drugs, but as you know, the effect is not good, and if your research involves drug ingredients, I am afraid it will be difficult to cooperate until it is approved by the International Anti-Contraposting Organization." Cindy, a dietitian, had arranged to take some sleep aids, which were of course officially approved, but they did not work well.
Fowler smiled after hearing this, "No, no, no, I think you misunderstood, I am a brain researcher, not a medicinal chemist, I study the way the brain works, I think my method, except for being a little hungry, will not have any side effects." â
Hungry? Why? (To be continued......)
