Chapter 297 You can think of it, so can I

Federer thought it was absurd. Continuously pressing the backhand and then suddenly turning to the forehand, this is the tactic that Federer has used the most in recent years, and it is also the first tactic with the highest scoring success rate. Now Zhang Guan is actually using the same tactic Tactics against yourself.

Federer knows how difficult it is to master this trick of his own. First of all, the forehand technique needs to be passed. If the forehand technique is not good, the ball is not spinning enough or the landing point is not good enough, it will definitely not be able to suppress the opponent's backhand; secondly, it is necessary to choose a good time to switch to the forehand and focus on the forehand time. No, if the opponent is prepared, it will not have the effect of a surprise attack, but it may give the opponent points.

On the next ball, Zhang Guan still used the same style of play. After serving, he forced Federer's backhand. After a few more shots, Zhang Guan raided Federer's forehand position, and then scored another point through a volley. The score became 0-30, with Federer trailing by two goals.

Federer's expression still looks very relaxed, because this is his ultimate move, so of course he knows how to break this move.

"This kind of strong backhand, even if you press hard, you can't win the ball. The key is to switch to the forehand, and that is when the real lethality is exerted. When the forehand is suddenly turned, most people will be caught off guard and return the ball. There will definitely be loopholes, so you only need to be able to grasp the opportunity to focus on the forehand, so that you can return the forehand more calmly, and it will naturally become a stalemate." Federer began to pay attention to the changes in Zhang Guan's movements while thinking. , he hopes to get familiar with Zhang Guan's rhythm as soon as possible, so as to deal with Zhang Guan's strong backhand and turn to forehand.

"Zhang Guan's rhythm feels very familiar, and it's really a bit like my rhythm." Federer didn't care too much about it. Now eight out of ten tennis players in the world are learning or imitating Federer. The pros are learning Federer's sense of rhythm, and Federer has long since taken it for granted

On the next shot, Zhang Guan suddenly changed his line and reversed his forehand.

"Start attacking the forehand!" Federer started at the same time, but this time the result was the same as the previous two times, Federer still did not make a good quality return.

Federer looked up at the 40-0 score, but there was a wave of confidence on his face.

"Zhang Guan's sense of rhythm is very similar to mine. Maybe the next ball, I won't be so passive."

Zhang Guan served again and continued to force Federer's backhand. Federer's return did not make major adjustments, but Federer has been perceiving the rhythm of Zhang Guan's swing.

Two beats, three beats, when Federer returned to the fourth beat, his body moved two small steps in the direction of his forehand.

"Could it be a forehand switch on this shot? According to this rhythm, the possibility is very high!" Federer was ready to run to the forehand to catch the ball.

However, in the next shot, Zhang Guan still attacked Federer's backhand.

"It's not this shot, the possibility of switching to a forehand in the next shot is even greater!" After Federer returned the ball, he moved two steps towards his forehand again, and these two steps were bigger than before.

"Swoosh!" The tennis ball flew to Federer's forehand position, just as Federer expected.

Federer sprinted to his forehand position, and this time, he made a high-quality forehand return.

Federer pre-judged that Zhang Guan would turn to a forehand on this ball, and he was mentally prepared, and he had made two small steps in advance. This master's move, sometimes a small step can determine the success or failure of a game , so this time, Federer can hit a high-quality return.

Zhang Guan was about to go to the net, but when he saw the ball, he immediately retreated to the bottom line. Zhang Guan has already judged that the quality of Federer's return is very good. If he goes to the net blindly, he will easily show his flaws.

"Did Federer predict that I would focus on the forehand on this shot? Just now he moved two steps towards the forehand position, which is to prevent me from suddenly focusing on the forehand. As expected of Federer, the judgment is really very accurate At this time, Zhang Guan did not realize that Federer was already familiar with his own rhythm.

Through this high-quality forehand counterattack, Federer reversed the original passive situation, and even vaguely grasped the initiative. For Federer who is in good condition, as long as he takes the initiative, the next advantage will only be getting bigger.

40-15, Federer pulled back a goal.

"Beautiful, this shot is so beautiful, Federer has been under the pressure of the backhand, through a beautiful forehand counterattack, reversed the situation! Only such a ball is in line with Federer's status as the number one in the world. "The narrator said.

Zhang Guan continued his serve, still continuously suppressing Federer's backhand. When Zhang Guan focused on the forehand, Federer once again predicted in advance, and the forehand counterattack once again grabbed the initiative.

"Federer should be familiar with my rhythm. Otherwise, it is impossible to judge so accurately based on blind guessing. But I am not familiar with your rhythm!" Zhang Guan directly attacked the bottom line with a forehand, and at the same time I also guessed that Federer would counter-press his backhand nine out of ten.

Zhang Guan's judgment is also very accurate, Federer is indeed ready to counter pressure Zhang Guan's backhand. And Zhang Guan quickly moved to the midfield position.

Another midfield interception! .

The ball hit the sideline directly. Federer wanted to catch the ball, but stopped halfway. Federer could catch the ball, but even if he received the ball, it would cause Zhang Guan damage. Federer would still lose points in front of the net volley, so Federer simply gave up the goal.

"Congratulations to Zhang Guan for successfully keeping his serve. The interception in the midfield just now was very beautiful. Now the score between the two sides is 3-1, and Zhang Guan is temporarily leading."

A relieved smile appeared on Zhang Guan's face, but Federer on the opposite side seemed not so happy.

"For the ball just now, Zhang Guan probably pre-judged that I would force a backhand, so instead of catching the ball from the bottom line, he chose to intercept it in the midfield, which made me lose the opportunity to continuously force a backhand." Federer looked at the opposite side Zhang Guan, then thought: "Zhang Guan was able to see through my offensive intentions. This is really beyond my expectations. It seems that Zhang Guan has done enough homework before the game. He has been studying my style of play. .But my understanding of Zhang Guan is still very limited, which is also my biggest disadvantage at present.”

Federer lifted his racket, came to the court, and started his serve.

In Federer's last serve, he mainly relied on pressing the backhand and then focusing on the forehand to score. Of course, he could not use this effective tactic once, so after Federer served, he continued to choose to press Zhang Guan's backhand.

Zhang Guan has also gradually become familiar with Federer's rhythm. After two shots, he moved two small steps towards the forehand, and then rushed to the forehand position when Federer attacked his forehand.

Zhang Guan moved faster than Federer. When the ball hit the ground, he was ready to catch the ball, and then returned the ball with a forehand calmly.

"You learn quickly." Federer swung his forehand and moved Zhang Guan to the other side of the court.

Zhang Guan was not to be outdone, he ran very actively, and he also chose a position closer to the edge of the hit. He was also mobilizing Federer.

The two sides played a long racket for fifteen rounds. In the end, Federer used a very aggressive ball to force Zhang Guan to make a mistake when receiving the ball and won the ball.

"It seems that it is getting more and more difficult to score, but it should be no problem to keep serve in this round." Federer wiped the sweat from his brow, took a few breaths, and continued to serve.

"Will Federer continue to force the backhand?" Zhang Guan's eyes widened, and he was concentrating on catching the ball.

The tennis ball flew in, and the target was still Zhang Guan's backhand.

"We still have to press the backhand." While Zhang Guan returned the ball, he found that Federer started to move forward.

"This is a serve to the net!" Zhang Guan already had a premonition that he was about to lose the ball.

This ball, Federer actually chose to serve to the net.

Federer's style of play is still biased towards the bottom line, so he suddenly used the serve to hit the net, which caught Zhang Guan off guard, and Federer successfully won the point.

On the third ball, Federer sent an ACE ball and the score came to 40-0.

For the fourth ball, the two sides played a long shot of more than ten rounds.

"Whoosh!" The tennis ball flew towards him, and while Federer was staring at the direction of the tennis ball, he glanced at Zhang Guan's position from the corner of his eye.

"This ball, hit the left side!" Federer made an instant judgment, and accurately hit the tennis ball to the left side of the court with his forehand.

"My current position seems to be too deep." Federer moved towards the middle, and then thought: "If I come to catch the ball, I will definitely use a slice to the right side of the front court, although it is a bit difficult. , the risk is quite high, but if it succeeds, there may be a chance of high pressure ball... Huh?"

Zhang Guan made a move on the opposite side. He used a forehand slice and lobbed the ball directly to the right side of the frontcourt.

"Zhang Guan thinks the same as me?" Federer moved to the frontcourt a few steps. He was just about to use a backhand, but suddenly remembered that it might give Zhang Guan a chance to hit the ball high.

"You can't backhand, let's hit the backcourt!" Federer switched to catch the ball with a forehand. He didn't hit the signature topspin, but a flat shot, hitting the ball directly to the backcourt.

However, what Federer didn't expect was that Zhang Guan had already quickly moved to the backcourt position, and then hit a diagonal line to directly win the goal.

"Zhang Guan actually guessed my thoughts!" Federer was a little annoyed and even more frustrated.

On the other hand, Zhang Guan let out a sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, as I expected, I learned from Federer's experience book, and my understanding and judgment of the ball are basically the same as Federer's. I can think of the same ball that Federer can think of, and I can think of it too!"
