Chapter 261: Advance Again
"Although the game was won, there are still a lot of problems, don't look at it, it's just your example, every move is not a little cooperative, Mr. Zeng can't make up for a few balls, don't forget that this is a doubles, not a show in front of the net alone." With a stern face, Raschet criticized Fan Ju's personal expression.
"It's my fault, I'm sorry for the lack of vertigo, it's really me who ruined the rhythm." Fan Ju sincerely admitted his mistake, and he had nothing to defend on this point.
Zeng Shaodigo looked at Fan Ju who lowered his head, and hurriedly said that it was okay, in fact, Fan Ju had already apologized in the game, and he also wanted to keep up with Fan Ju's speed, but once Fan Ju suddenly broke out, his rhythm would always be a step slower.
In terms of rhythm, it is Fan Ju who is accommodating him in the game, as for those chaotic rhythms, most of them are caused by saving some extremely difficult balls, and it cannot be completely said that Fan Ju is the fault of one person.
However, the game was won after all, although there were some twists and turns, but there was no danger, after the opening was suppressed, the opponent was not a rookie, and grabbed the cooperation of Zeng Shaoxuan and Fan Ju to play several time differences, but successfully broke once in the second set.
Okay, Fan Ju immediately prayed for God's possession, and pulled back a game in front of the net like a god, otherwise this game may be delayed until the third set.
"The opponent in the first round is just a temporary partner, and the cooperation between the two Filipino players in the second round will definitely be better." Raschet pointed out the problem of tomorrow's doubles.
In terms of power ranking, it is about the same as today's two, but the same nationality means that there will be less trouble with language and communication.
And one of these two players. It is the third time that he has played against Fan Ju in the field, while the other is the No. 1 player in the Philippines, and his singles strength is only hovering around 100.
In terms of singles strength. Both of them are not afraid of Fan Ju, they are not two gears apart, but at least it is a big grade distance.
The question is only whether the opponent will make any adjustments to the problem of the two today's cooperation, after all, the rhythm error is very obvious several times, and if the pre-match investigation and targeted tactics are done, it is very likely that there will be any variables on the field.
"It's unlikely, though. But hopefully not. After all, the two of them and the combination are still immature, and they only rely on less than half a month of joint practice, and at most they can be familiar with each other.
Really good doubles combination. Some of them are not only subtle tactical coordination, but more importantly, they can communicate without words on the field, and they can play a very tacit natural coordination. It's like a man's two hands on the field. This is the true highest level of doubles.
Zeng Shaohui said goodbye to Fan Ju and returned to his room, and after losing the first round, he had no other matches to worry about except doubles.
But Fan Ju is different, compared to the doubles of the first competition, Fan Ju is more important to the results of singles, this time his goal is to focus on the championship, the importance of the game, far more important than the "play" doubles.
Takao Suzuki is a fan who is participating in the first challenge. The opponent in the first round, of course, is the first brother of Japan. The Tour of the Asian region is a natural part of it.
However, Takao Suzuki's ranking is not enough to directly participate in the main event, even if the standard of the competition is low, he needs to advance from the qualifying round.
Poor but lucky, the qualifiers only reached the second round and eventually lost, but the problem is that there are a lot of players who have temporarily withdrawn from this tour, and they have left a lucky place to advance.
"He was really unlucky, he finally made it through the first round, and this time he hit my hand again, and I didn't know if I won him, what would the Japanese think of him? But it's not bad, I'm going to win anyway. "It was not clear who the opponent of the match was, but according to the analysis of the coaching team, it was very likely that it was another German player.
But after all, it was the home field in Asia, and Takao Suzuki had warmed up for the qualifying tournament and was in shape, easily sending the opponent who had not yet passed the jet lag in two sets, and he got the opportunity to play against Fan Ju.
There are not many opponents who can threaten him in this competition, and the opponents who can really make Fan Ju wary will probably have to wait until the semifinals to have a chance to meet.
As the No. 4 seed, there were almost no strong opponents in the early matches, and Fan Ju was naturally happy to use it easily, putting more speed in doubles matches.
Fan Ju doesn't care, but in this game, there are many people who regard Fan Ju as the biggest enemy, young and vigorous, and Fan Ju who has frequently achieved good results in large-scale events.
On the contrary, in doubles, no one pays much attention to Fan Ju's performance, or the only real doubles combination that the No. 1 seed really attaches importance to, or who really attaches importance to doubles results.
In the singles, Fan Ju did not disappoint everyone, simply and neatly in the two sets, Suzuki Takao not to mention Fan Ju, two 6:1 scores, directly exploded, not even a break point was obtained, was easily swept by Fan Ju, compared with the first meeting, Fan Ju's strength has long been like two people.
In doubles, Fan Ju did not have a soft hand, and when the speed was sufficient, Fan Ju had no intention of losing the game and won! That's what he's playing for.
And Zeng Shao didn't say anything, but he did his best in action, and without the influence of singles, he came to play the game with his body the next day.
Fan Ju intercepted in the front court, and he rushed to fill in the backcourt, and the cooperation between the two Filipino players was really good, and at the same time, as they feared, they made a targeted attack on the gap between the cooperation between the two.
"Shao Di is thanks to you today, if it weren't for your fill-in, the second set might have been dangerous." Fan was very happy to win the game, so he was naturally happy.
Lost the first set, no matter how strong Fan Ju's ability was, he couldn't hold the whole court, and the second set was originally precarious, Fan Ju almost wanted to save the court with a violent walk, but he didn't expect it to be Zeng Shaodigo who turned the tide in the middle game, intercepted several times in front of the net, and broke the opponent's serve first.
The pace of running was accelerated, and part of Fan Ju's strength was also released, and at this time, the two really completed the same tone cooperation on the field for the first time.
Different from the correction of training, with strong opponent pressure, Zeng Shaoxuan and Fan Ju both developed a sense of suppression, and this suppression made them instinctively form a synergy, not formally, but really complemented each other technically.
But the hole in the offense disappears, and the opponent is instantly defeated by the two who broke out, as is the case in doubles, and the change of situation is easier to turn around than in singles.
Once the loophole is filled, it is much more difficult to dig it open than to find a new loophole, and the two Filipino players are not able to break the coordinated defense line of Fan Ju and Zeng Shaodi, and finally Fan Ju was violently driven by two consecutive games and was completely overturned.
This game also made both Fan Ju and Zeng Shaoxuan very happy, after all, a partner who can cooperate is much better than a partner who can only accommodate the game.
In addition, the number of rounds in the doubles match itself is small, and after winning two rounds, the two have unknowingly reached the semifinals, and after winning the next one, they can stand on the stage of the final of the tour!
"That's too fast, isn't it? It feels like it's coming to an end before it even begins. "I was really unfamiliar with the format of doubles, and it was only after participating in it that I realized that doubles was not as troublesome as I imagined.
Doubles, especially ATP-level doubles, is actually very different from singles tournaments, first of all, there is no qualifying tournament for doubles in Challenge Tournaments and Tour tournaments, which means that unless you get a wild card like Fan Ju, you can only rely on ranking to participate in doubles tournaments.
The focus of world professional tennis is singles, so there are almost no players who will participate in doubles competitions alone, so this also causes many pairings of single professional players in doubles competitions to choose temporary.
It could be a player from an agency, or it could be from a country, and it's more likely that one was contacted at short notice before the start of the match.
Most of the purpose is just the same as Fan Ju, mixing doubles points, as for the victory or defeat, whether you can advance or not, it doesn't matter, at least for ordinary players, a singles championship and a doubles championship are placed in front of them, and there is no need to make more choices at all.
Of course, there are also players in the world who have made doubles their main career, such as the two Australian top seeds, Wayne Arthurs and Paul Hanley.
In doubles, they are ranked 10 and 11 respectively, and this ranking divided by 2 means that they are currently in the top 5-6 doubles pairs in the world.
Compared to their singles results outside the top 100, it is clear that they have reached the top in doubles, and it is clear at a glance which tournament is the focus of their careers.
If a low-level player wants to take the doubles road, he can only start accumulating points from the future tournament, and then participate in ATP-level doubles tournaments at the same time as the singles when he is ranked enough.
Of course, you can also learn from Fan Ju, first get extremely high results in singles, and then go back to the big competitions to brush up doubles points.
After all, whether it is a challenger, a tour, or a Grand Slam, as long as you enter the ATP, doubles has become a tournament with professional doubles ranking players, and you don't have this chance to fight all the way from the qualifying round.
On the contrary, in singles, there are not a few players who can make a splash, from the qualifying round all the way to the final, Fan Ju did not do such a feat in his first challenge.
But in doubles, there is no such possibility, even if it is a direct championship in the future, it is not a great achievement, at most it is just talent. (To be continued......)
