On June 10th, at 2 pm Paris time, the final game of the French Open this year was also the most important game. The men’s singles final was held at the Philippe Chattier Stadium.
At this time, the domestic time is nine o'clock in the evening. Although the time is slightly later, it is a weekend evening at any time, plus Zhang Guan's game, so there are still many spectators waiting in front of the TV and waiting to watch this game.
When Nadal entered the stadium, the audience immediately gave him a warm applause. They used cheers to greet the "king" on the French Open, and the red and yellow Spanish flag around the stadium was more conspicuous.
When Zhang Guan played, the applause and cheers were much smaller. Zhang Guan looked to the stands and found several five-star red flags in an instant, which made Zhang Guan feel calmer.
"Sure enough, Nadal is really popular here." Zhang Guan can feel the gap between him and Nadal from the audience's voice.
Two years ago, 19-year-old Nadal participated in the French Open for the first time, and you defeated Federer in the semi-finals. In the final, he defeated Argentine Mariano Puerta and won the first big in his life. Throughout the championship, at that time, Nadal was hailed as the "son of the French Open". It can be said that this field is where Nadal became famous.
Now, Nadal holds two French Open champions and comes to this arena again. The son of the former French Open, today's King of Red Clay, came to the place where he was crowned, and the achievement of the "three consecutive crowns" of the French Open seems to be taken for granted.
The romantic French fans shouted passionately. The whole stadium was ignited, and the heat in the stadium continued to heat up. The air was filled with a sense of suffocation before the competition, and when the spectators' ability to endure was about to reach its limit, the game finally began.
"Almost all audience members cheered and cheered for Nadal. Today's Philip Stadium has become Nadal's home court. I don't know if this will cause psychological problems for the first time to participate in the French Open final. Pressure. But Zhang Guan has a lot of experience in major competitions, I think his psychological quality should be very strong! Okay, Zhang Guan brushes serve first!" The commentator suddenly paused, and two seconds later, Zhang Guan Started the first serve of the game.
Tennis flies over the net. Then Nadal was touched out of bounds.
"Serving and scoring! It seems that my previous worries were unnecessary. Zhang Guan was not affected by the atmosphere on the field!" the commentator said.
Next, Zhang Guan continued to serve, and after a three-shot hold, Zhang Guan forehanded a wide-range transfer and scored another point.
But for this goal, Nadal obviously did not rush to chase. Instead, he symbolically ran two steps and stopped.
After all, this is the first game of the two sides. In the face of opponents such as Zhang Guan, Nadal, who was the receiver, did not intend to break the first game, but still mainly warmed up, so there is no need to chase every ball. . After all, tennis requires a lot of running, and a lot of large-scale movements need to be made in the game, if the warm-up is not enough. It's still easy to get injured.
Zhang Guan also needs to warm up. Although he is a track and field athlete, especially the king of sprinting, his body will definitely not warm up slowly, so the warm-up time is much less, he can enter the race faster.
In the first game, when the score reached 40-0, Nadal gradually began to find the state. After pulling the score to 40-15, he finally lost a goal and Zhang Guan temporarily led 1-0.
In the second game of both sides, Nadal continued to pick up. Although he did not issue an ace ball or serve directly to score, but his perfect forehand cooperated with the active offensive, it was easier to win his own service game. 1-1 level.
After the two rounds, although the score of both sides was 1-1, both sides knew that the real game started. The first two rounds of the game, for both players, can be said to be a warm-up process or a mutual The process of temptation, and then, the real fierce confrontation officially began.
At the beginning of the third game, Zhang Guan preempted and an ace ball took the lead to score points, but then in the second ball, Zhang Guan encountered a strong resistance from Nadal.
Nadal did not choose a landing point that was very close to the edge. His direction of hitting was still very stable, but Nadal strengthened the rotation of the ball. With a strong top spin, the tennis ball always bounced high after landing. While Zhang Guan forehanded back, he felt that it was so uncomfortable to catch the ball.
"This ball is difficult to control!" Zhang Guan still underestimated the rotation of Nadal's forehand, then the return of the ball was slightly shorter, and Nadal caught the opportunity to counterattack.
This is Nadal's forehand, which always makes his opponent uncomfortable. Even if the speed is not fast, even if there is no very tricky landing point, it will definitely carry the strongest rotation in the world.
I saw Nadal's forehand swing and the tennis ball flew directly to Zhang Guan's backhand. Nadal's quality of the ball is very good. For Nadal who shoots with his left hand, it is very comfortable to use the forehand to attack Zhang Guan's backhand.
"The rotation is still very strong!" Zhang Guan has already felt this. This ball, Nadal is a forehand hit with both hands, and Zhang Guan is a one-handed backhand hit. It is definitely a loss in strength. If you choose the conventional method of catching the ball, it is easy to make mistakes, so Zhang Guan Simply came a backlash, a backhand cutting the ball, hitting the ball back across the net.
"Backhand cutting! Zhang Guan really used backhand cutting, his choice is the same as Federer." Nadal's heart was delighted, and this was the result he most wanted to face.
When Nadal and Federer played against each other before, when Nadal forehandedly attacked Federer's backhand, Federer would also make the same choice, using backhand cutting, which seemed to be a very reasonable response. But in the clay court, facing Federer's backhand cutting, Nadal can always find a forehand pressure to create more offensive opportunities.
So at this time, Nadal was quite familiar with this backhand cutting. He directly chose to press forward continuously and scored this goal, turning the score of the third game to 15-15.
...
"My backhand happened to match Nadal's forehand. It was too bad to play this way!" Zhang Guan thought for a while and decided to rely on his forehand to deal with Nadal.
This time, Zhang Guan chose to return with a forehand after serving, and the attack was also Nadal's backhand.
Nadal held the racket with both hands and returned the ball to Zhang Guan. The ball was not fast and the landing point was not deep, but from these two points, it was a good catch.
However, Zhang Guan remembered the coach's warning that Nadal's backhand still had a strong spin, so even if the ball did not fall deep enough, it seemed that it was easy to catch the ball, and Zhang Guan still treated it carefully.
Sure enough, Nadal's backhand still had a strong spin. When the ball landed, the height of the bounce allowed Zhang Guan to confirm this.
"Don't think that only you can hit a high spin ball!" Zhang Guan vigorously slammed, this time, he is also preparing to use the top spin to deal with Nadal.
The tennis ball leaped across the net, and Nadal moved quickly to the place where the ball was received.
At the next moment, the tennis ball bounced high and rushed towards the position above Nadal's head.
"Top spin, so strong top spin!" Nadal exclaimed.
