All-round Athlete

Chapter 326 Stormy Offensive (Fifth Watch)

The South Korean commentator looked confused.

Just five minutes ago, when the two athletes were still preparing for the match, the commentator had introduced the situation of the two to the audience. The power on the court will be greatly reduced. With Lee Hyung-taek's strength, he will be able to deal with it freely, and constantly emphasize that Lee Hyung-taek has a great possibility to break serve in the first game.

However, the fact is that it only took Zhang Guan more than two minutes to secure serve and win the round, which also included the time for the chief referee to get off the high stool to check the tennis ball. This contrast made the South Korean commentator feel ashamed.

"I have checked a lot of information before the game, and I have read recent media reports. Aren't those experts saying that Zhang Guan's serve is not suitable for clay? Why can Zhang Guan serve two consecutive aces? Why did the first game Will it be a love-game? Lee Hyung-taek didn’t even win a single ball, how can I justify it!”

The South Korean commentator kept complaining in his heart, but in the earphones, the director began to urge him to speak quickly.

He is worthy of being a professional sports commentator. In the next second, he thought of his speech.

"In a tennis match, the first round of the two sides is generally a warm-up process. At the same time, if the two sides are competing for the first time, it must also be a process of mutual testing. Player Lee Hyung-taek played against Zhang Guan for the first time, so I am not familiar with Zhang Guan, so I am also testing Zhang Guan tactically. Now after a game of testing, Lee Hyung-taek must have a good understanding of his opponent, and the next game is Lee Hyung-taek and He's serve , I think Lee Hyung-taek will definitely use a stormy offensive to win the next round!" The Korean commentator's tone became more and more excited as he spoke, as if Lee Hyung-taek was about to win the whole game.

In the barbecue restaurant, the diners all nodded their heads approvingly. Obviously, they recognized the narrator's explanation very much, and in their subjective consciousness, they all believed that the explanation of this explanation was correct.

Many times, people's cognition of things does not depend on the truth, but on their own subjective cognition. That's why there are so many stubborn people in this world.

On the court, the two sides started the second game, followed by Lee Hyung-taek's serve.

The first game ended too quickly, and Zhang Guan also sent two ACE balls, so Lee Hyung-taek did not feel the difference in strength between the two sides. What Lee Hyung-ze can tell so far is that Zhang Guan's forehand hits with a very strong topspin.

Ever since Nadal swept the clay court with that abnormal topspin, there has been a consensus in the tennis world, that is, on the clay court, one must hit the topspin as much as possible, because the topspin is the most stable and the easiest A shot that causes damage. So in the current clay court, even a heavy gunner like Gonzalez will often use topspin.

Therefore, Li Hengze did not feel too much surprise about Zhang Guan's topspin. After all, it is a clay court, and it is a Grand Slam level match like the French Open. The players must be desperately hitting the topspin. The ball with a lot of spin is also reasonable.

The next serve is not Lee Hyung-taek's strong point. Of course, the so-called "not strong serve" is for the world's top players. Li Hengze's world ranking is in the forties. Compared with players of the same level, Li Hengze's serve is quite satisfactory.

However, Lee Hyung-taek is facing an opponent stronger than Federer at the moment. In Zhang Guan's eyes, Lee Hyung-taek's serve is really a bit weak.

Li Hengze stood outside the baseline, looked at Zhang Guan's position on the opposite side, and started to serve.

"Are Zhang Guan's two ACEs just now intended to put me off? Now I have to return it!" Li Hengze also prepared to fight an ACE to boost morale in the first serve of the game.

"Drink!" Li Hengze also chose a landing point close to the sideline. He shouted loudly, and the tennis ball drew a trajectory in the air and landed in Zhang Guan's half court.

The ball landed very close to the sideline, and the angle was very biased. After landing, the ball flew directly out of bounds.

However, due to the lack of strength, the speed of this ball is not fast. After bouncing on the red soil, a lot of energy was lost, and the ball was even slower.

"There is a landing point and an angle, but unfortunately there is no speed!" Zhang Guan rushed forward quickly. If it was a player ranked around 40 in the world, he would probably find it difficult to catch the ball, but the speed of movement is very important for him. Zhang Guanlai is obviously good at it, he can receive and serve relatively easily.

"Hey!" After the racket made contact with the ball, the crisp sound came to Li Hengze's ears.

"Zhang Guan's moving speed is so fast!" Li Hengze sighed in his heart, and then responded with a forehand topspin.

Li Hengze also knows that his strength is not dominant, so the strategy formulated before the game is to rely on topspin to play steadily and look for opportunities in the stalemate.

"It's time to compete for patience!" Li Hengze sighed inwardly, and then thought: "If Zhang Guan chooses to go online, that would be the best. The way of playing before the net is not suitable for the clay court at all, even playing in front of the net Pete Sampras, the master of France, was unable to win a Grand Slam title at the French Open."

Zhang Guan was not in a hurry to hit the net, but also used a topspin ball to fight back.

Li Hengze is already prepared this time. He knows that Zhang Guan's topspin ball spins very hard and will bounce higher, so he specially raises his arm and swings the racket. This time he chooses the same attack direction as the previous blow. .

"The landing point of the ball is similar to the last one. This is an opportunity!" Zhang Guan suddenly moved forward a few steps, and he wanted to advance the receiving point and switch between offense and defense.

However, this action was misunderstood by Li Hengze that Zhang Guan was going to play in front of the net.

"Is Zhang Guan going to the Internet? Sure enough, he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to use the front of the net to attack. It seems that he will win this time... Huh? Why did he stop?"

Although Zhang Guan took two small steps forward, he did not reach the net. Instead, he made a sliding step after entering the bottom line, and then hit the tennis ball hard with his forehand, turning defense into offense.

For this shot, Zhang Guan did not add topspin in order to pursue a quick offensive and defensive transition, but directly used a flat shot, but the effect was very good. Li Hengze obviously did not expect that Zhang Guan would run fast at this moment and then suddenly hit the ball. In the transition between offense and defense, his flustered return of the ball seemed very lacking in quality.

Zhang Guan directly drew the ball to Li Hengze's neutral position and won the ball easily. With a score of 0-15, Zhang Guan took the lead temporarily.

There was a burst of applause at the scene. Zhang Guan's sudden offensive and defensive transition was obviously not expected by the audience. In everyone's opinion, Zhang Guan's handling of this ball was very wonderful, and he played a very gorgeous counterattack.

However, in the barbecue restaurant in South Korea, the diners have an incredible expression.

"What's going on? This is Lee Hyung-taek's serve. Didn't the commentator just say that Lee Hyung-taek is going to launch a counterattack? Isn't there a stormy offensive? Why did he lose the ball as soon as he came up?"
