During the rest of the day, in addition to meeting with Zhang Depei, Fan Ju is not easy, even if there is a match tomorrow, but this is the French Open, the interview can stop some parts, but it is impossible to stop all of them, like ESPN, an IMG relation, stopping it is only bad for Fan Ju.

At yesterday's celebration party, Fan Ju and Erin met, but today Erin Andrews has changed her appearance again, and the dress of this beautiful woman in front of the camera always makes people feel pure and seductive.

The white top has a slight ravine, you can see a clear outline, but you can't see the true face of Lushan.

This can arouse people's curiosity even more, especially for a young man like Fan Ju, even if he is a friend, he can't help but glance at that position twice.

"I'm really tired today, if I win the next round, will those people have to do it again?" In the evening, Fan Ju finally had time to catch his breath, of course, his work was not over, tomorrow the game was about to start, and he still had to "review" the opponent's situation and information in advance.

Rembrandt nodded, no way, this is professional tennis, the more famous you are, the more people will surround you, unless you are just a nobody who is always playing at the bottom.

As long as you are going to climb to a higher level, you have to face the media, you have to face the public, and the identity of competitive athletes has changed around the 21st century.

This is no longer a simple physical activity, they have the title of star on the suffix of their names, just like film and television actors.

Basketball stars, football stars. Tennis stars, the more popular the sport, the more attention you have. No less than those movie actors.

Every game is like a movie, the whole process will be savored back and forth, a good game will become a popular classic, and a fringe game? I'm afraid that the spectators and the players themselves may not remember the details.

"Tennis magicians?" Fan Ju looked at the profile, and his next opponent was famous, Fabrice Santoro and Zhang Depei Sampras.

However, unlike the other two who are preparing to retire, Santoro has not expressed this intention. At the same time, his special grip style has given him a unique name in the tennis world.

If serving to the net is considered non-mainstream in the current tennis world, then Santoro's hands are clapping. It is the only genre.

When Fan Ju finished watching the video materials, he understood the meaning of the reminder when Zhang Depei left.

"It's too fine, it's just escalated into noise."

Fast, dense footsteps can make a very irritating sound on the field. Unlike other players. Every beat of Santoro is adjusted with a small footwork.

The effect of this noise will be used to the extreme, and perhaps this is the way he is used to moving, but for his opponents, it is a complete torture.

"Let's watch it when we get to the game, I don't know if I can bring earplugs." Turn off the TV screen, Fan Ju thought self-deprecatingly.

The slight changes did not deter Fan Ju, or that he had achieved his intended goal, although IMG initially hoped that he would advance to the third round of the Grand Slam. But encountering such a schedule and opponent is not something that Fan Ju can choose.

Santoro's all-time high ranking is also not as high as that of the Scharken that Fan Ju defeated. Now it has fallen to around 50, and if you look at the ranking, the strength of Fan Ju and the opponent should belong to the same level of opponents.

But in fact, Santoro's style of play is fatal for newcomers who have not come into contact with him, because you can't find any template similar to him in the tennis world, and there are few masters who sink in the sand in front of him, even if the ranking is lowered, no one dares to underestimate this unique skill.

At the French Open, the weather was as good as the forecast said, with the sun shining brightly, and as the afternoon approached, the temperature continued to rise, and some people were already wearing short-sleeved shirts.

When Fan Ju arrived at the venue, the stadium was already full of spectators, although it was still a separate arena, but the scale was much larger than the arena two days ago, and the 2,000-seat arena had already sat more than 1,500 spectators.

The crowd is still coming in, and the number of spectators is expected to get even bigger, but this is not good news for Fan Ju, this is France, the home of his opponent in front of him!

"Good...... Low mounds. ”

The 177-centimeter-tall Santoro is taller than Zhang Depei, but after Fan Ju saw the opponent entering the arena, his first feeling turned out to be, is this person's body proportion wrong?

It's not that Fan Ju is discriminatory, it's just that this person's legs are too short, and the ratio between the top and bottom is really weird, like a half-flattened soda can, and the top is longer than the bottom.

Fan Ju felt a little weird on the video screen, but after seeing the real person, I found that it was not the relationship between the TV ratio, but that this person was really born with short legs.

Compared to Fan Ju, Santoro didn't pay too much attention to his opponent, dark horse? or something else, it doesn't have much to do with him, he is a "weirdo" in professional tennis, and many players would rather compete with the world's top 10 than meet him.

"It's very good in front of the net, the baseline also has offensive ability, and the red clay is not slow to move." That's all Santoro knows about Fanju, but he thinks it's enough.

Warming up, Fan Ju saw for the first time the so-called two-handed front shot, which was very unique, which reminded him of Nadal's two-handed backhand, if you think about it with a habitual hand, it is also a two-handed front shot.

It's just that the opponent in front of him has made this grip more thorough, with both hands reversed and both hands straight, and this is not the most unusual thing about him......

Fan Ju threw the serve, he got the priority serve, facing an unfamiliar opponent, he didn't know if he could do it, and suppressed the opponent with the first serve.

Santoro's technique in the warm-up was very uncomfortable for him, as if he had come to another tennis system, similar but different.

Without double speed, Fan Ju still chooses to use the rhythm of the previous game, which can not only exercise his skills, but also paralyze the opponent's carelessness.

That's what he thought, but his opponent clearly didn't intend to give him a chance to pick up slowly......

The sound of rubbing the ground quickly, clack...... The dense sound was like the march of ants, and Santoro's footsteps could be heard by the ears alone.

Quickly moving the steering on the field with minimal pace, this pace not only puts a lot of pressure on the opponent, but more importantly he can provide short and fast acceleration.

Santoro made a quick lateral move and backslapped his hands into Fan's incoming ball, and the racket had the power to spin the ball downward, which allowed the return ball to draw an unusual arc in the air.

Fan Ju has seen the cutting ball, but the opponent's cutting ball is very unique, it is not an ordinary topspin or side spin cut, but it is like a mixed mode of two cutting balls, making the arc difficult to judge, and at the same time there is enough swing speed, so that the ball speed is far faster than the cut ball with a small ball.

"Seems like that's it?"

Forehand flat hit swept over, in the face of this kind of cut ball, although it is difficult to play topspin force, but you can directly hit the ball back with violent flat shots, and the opponent's ball speed is not fast, Fan Ju began to move with the ball to the net for the first time, hoping to bring some pressure to the opponent at the beginning.

"Huh? Changed lines? ”

Just rushed to the middle line, Santoro's movement had changed to the forehand position on the right side, but he also held the racket with both hands, and for a while Fan Ju was confused by the opponent's mirrored swing.

A sudden change of line towards the left side of Fan Ju is still a fast ball with a cut, with a high arc, but very fast.

When Fan Ju noticed the change, he turned on the double speed, but the opponent's return was too sudden, and he could only make a backhand interception, but the ball was finally blocked, but it was only an instant that he realized that something was wrong.

The initiative is different! It was obviously Fan Ju's serve, but Santoro made Fan Ju's initiative lose instantly, and Fan Ju didn't have time to think about why, because the pace of the court was too fast.

He followed the return ball and approached the net again, and the double speed state was also maintained at double speed, but at the moment of standing, Fan Ju immediately changed his movements and strode desperately towards the position of the backcourt!

The moment Santoro received the ball without warning, the concealment of holding the racket with both hands allowed him to hide too many movements, Fan Ju forced to the net he was not afraid at all, after the racket was tilted, it was a cushion ball with power.

"Damn!" Unlike the high ball that Fan Ju had encountered, Santoro's high ball was fast and urgent.

Fan Ju reacted immediately, but he was still a step too slow, he didn't have time to turn back, and he couldn't see Santoro's position, so he could only hit the ball back from his crotch by feeling.

Even if such a ball is turned on at three times the speed, it will not solve any problems, it is completely based on the sense of the ball and the grasp of the space of the field.

Fan Ju has a sense of space, but the ball sense can only be regarded as average, and the ball under the crotch is a little half high, try to make the ball higher, so as not to be directly blocked on the net.

"Bang Bang...... Bang, bang! The rapid friction sounded again, and Fan Ju didn't have to look back to know that it must be the opponent who blocked his return again.

"With a wave of both hands, the angle of return to the ball at the baseline should not be too big, right?" Fan Ju didn't have time to turn back, wondering if his opponent would raid his reverse bottom line.

Turning quickly on the bottom line, Santoro had already completed the interception action, but the opponent's position made Fan Ju, who had just turned around, couldn't help but curse!

"Grass! Didn't you say that it was good to wave your hands with a clap? ”

With one hand to intercept, Santoro actually took advantage of Fan Ju being forced to the backcourt to run reflexively at the same time, and forced to the front of the net, and the pair who was still in the backcourt a moment ago suddenly appeared in front of the net! (To be continued......)
