Open again

The time went forward to eight o'clock in the morning, which is the time when the first game of the day starts, and at the Vodafone Stadium, the last game of the third round of the men's singles was underway. The 12th seed German Thomas Mario Haas against his fellow Meyer.

Zhang Guan also sat in front of the TV to watch this game, because the winner of this game will be the opponent of Zhang Guan's next game.

"Haas is the No. 12 seed, Meyer is a non-seed player, and both of them are Germans. They know each other well. It is not easy for Meyer to win unexpectedly. I think in this game, the winner, must be Haas." Coach Joyce continued, "That means you will face a difficult opponent in the next game. "

"A tough opponent? Is it Tomas Haas?" Zhang Guan asked.

Coach Joyce nodded, then said, "Among the top ATP players, Haas should be the most difficult opponent. He has good technique and strong willpower, even if there is no more. He will not give up the game and will fight until the last moment, so many players do not want to meet Haas because playing with him is too tiring."

"Although I have heard the name of Haas and I know that he is very strong, but I don't know much about his details, can you tell me about it?" Zhang Guan asked.

"Haas is a German, and his career ranking is second in the world. He is arguably the most talented tennis player in Germany. He is known as the golden boy of German tennis. There is a professional basketball player named Nowitzki in Germany who is playing in the NBA, you should know that Nowitzki practiced tennis when he was a child, and also won the German junior championship, but later Nowitzki met Haas. As a result, Nowitzki was beaten by Haas, and then he said goodbye to tennis and switched to basketball." Coach Joyce introduced.

"Ha! I can't think of Nowitzki playing tennis and these twists and turns, but after all, with Nowitzki's height, it's not suitable for playing tennis." Zhang Guan thought secretly.

Coach Joyce then introduced, "Haas is also a young man. He entered the third round of the US Open at the age of 19, entered the Australian Open at the age of 20 and reached the semifinals, and ranked 23rd at the age of 23. He is arguably very promising, but he is also the most unlucky tennis player in recent years. At the end of 2002, his wrist was inexplicably injured. The injury at that time was a torn wrist rotation muscle. This injury is only encountered by baseball players. Tennis players will not be injured by this kind of injury, and the treatment of this kind of injury is very complicated. Therefore, Haas performed two operations and did not appear on the court for 16 months."

Zhang Guan nodded. Although he did not understand the situation of Haas 'injury at that time, considering the German medical level, he had to undergo two operations to recover after 16 months which is very troublesome.

"However, this is not over yet." Coach Joyce thought for a while and then said, "After Haas returned from injury, he tried to stop the rolling tennis ball with his foot during a practice game, and then accidentally slipped. The right ankle sprained, saying goodbye to the game again."

"He slipped and was injured!" Zhang Guan couldn't help laughing, because he was injured for this ridiculous reason, Haas was unlucky.

Joyce's expression was very solemn, he said, "Although Haas is not yet thirty years old, he has indeed experienced too many setbacks in the past few years, and every time he can rejuvenate, and his state of affairs has also been brought into the game, and he is persevering, so he is also the player with the most determination in the ATP. "

"Haas is like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang!" Zhang Guan sighed, and then asked, "So when dealing with Haas, what method should I use to target him?"

Coach Joyce shook his head, "There is no way. Haas's technique is very comprehensive, he is very proficient in serving, receiving, bottom line, front of the net, volleying, and putting small balls. It can be said that Haas is a weakened version of Federer. If you want to defeat Haas, you have to pass hard power."

The two said as the first set on TV had already ended. In the first set, Haas and Meyer kept each other's services, and the game had also reached a tie-break. Haas finally relied on an excellent play in the tie-break to win the first set.

This game looked evenly matched, but Haas played very relaxed, more like a warm-up, and then in the second set, Haas suddenly struck and defeated his opponent 6-3, Immediately after the third set, Haas still maintained the original level and defeated his opponent 6-3 again. Haas also won the final victory of the game with a total score of 3-0, and he also became the opponent of Zhang Guan's next game.

Seeing the expected result of the game, Zhang Guan muted the TV. Throughout the game, in addition to observing Haas, Zhang Guan has been thinking about ways to deal with Haas that will be more beneficial.

Zhang Guan was silent for a few seconds, and then suddenly asked, "If I use a more extreme style of play, will I be able to win relatively easily?"

"Extreme play? Do you want to put the line down as far as possible?" Coach Joyce asked.

Zhang Guan nodded, but Coach Joyce was not very supportive.

"I think it's still good to play steadily. If you play too extreme, although it will cause a lot of pressure on your opponent, the success rate is something we must consider. Even if you have greater certainty, you can maintain a high success rate, But you cannot guarantee that the referee's judgment must be accurate. Sometimes, although your ball is in the field, the referee may think it is an out-of-bounds ball." Coach Joyce said.

"If the referee judges wrong, I can challenge the Hawk-eye." Zhang Guan said.

"You only have three chances to fail. Even if you enter to tie a tie, you have only four chances to fail, unless you can guarantee that your challenge will always succeed. But that is impossible." Coach Joyce continued, "Take the serve as an example. Your serve speed exceeds 200 kilometers per hour. For a ball so fast, you must focus on the landing point to see clearly, and the landing point of your shot is on the opponent's field. The distance is too far. It's far away, even a shooter can't determine the precise point of the ball. Moreover, you have to prepare for the next return, you can't always focus on the opponent's side-lying position!"

"That may not be possible, maybe I can challenge it 100%!" Zhang Guan smiled and then found a good thing in the system.

"Tennis Hawk Eye Instant Replay System, Overcomes the limit blind spot in human observation ability. The price is 15 skill points. Not expensive, not expensive, let buy it!"
