Chapter 371 Wimbledon Day Three (Part 1)
On the first day of July, the third match day of Wimbledon, all the stars competed. The first round of singles was almost all over, and most of the players who were favored by the outside world before the match successfully advanced to the second round.
Among them, the young players ranked within the top 100 have all swept through their opponents, showing their ambition and strength to seize class power.
The names of young players that have appeared more and more frequently in the past year are Smith Hannah, Justin Shah, Fox Abela, Katherine Haas, Anna Fogel, Pluto Co. Sniffer.
·While their world rankings are rising rapidly, their probability of appearing in well-known tennis magazines is catching up with the best of the Mesozoic generation.
The most terrible thing is that these young players have signed up for both singles and doubles. Not only are they hunted around the world in singles, but they also have to snipe in doubles.
The representative players of the Mesozoic generation are the 24-year-old Australian first sister Dias Kelly, the 26-year-old Czech first sister Pushkareva, and the 22-year-old Italian first sister Deitch. These three players focus on singles and have always been at the forefront of the world rankings.
There was originally a chance to further secure the top three positions in the world. However, Chinese player An Yuexi was eliminated halfway, triggering a protracted youth storm. Mesozoic players gradually became nothing more than touchstones and stepping stones.
In the youth storm confrontation with the second echelon, the record of the three Mesozoic players was comparable to that of the three young players, and as time went by, the young players began to gain the upper hand.
Take several grass-court tournaments last month as an example. Starting from the Dutch grass-court tournament, the young players showed their extremely competitive spirit and great talent.
Hannah fought Diaz Kelly in three sets in the final. If she hadn't had more professional experience than Hannah, there's no telling who would have won the championship.
As a former world number one (he was the world number one for two weeks), Dias Kelly was a little overwhelmed by the impact of young players, and the other two were even more difficult.
At the Berlin grass court in Germany, Dyche met Abela in the semi-finals and shed a layer of his skin. In the end, he had to retire in the final to help his opponent win the championship.
At the Eastbourne station, Pushkareva, a doctoral player who only started playing professionally at the age of 22, had a very difficult time playing against Justin Shah and encountered numerous crises.
Up to now, after the Wimbledon draw came out, the three representative players of the Mesozoic generation are feeling very heavy. Moreover, because the young players made it clear in interviews that they came here with the determination to join forces with An Yuexi, the pressure is obvious.
Hanging above my head, just waiting for it to fall the next week.
Veterans represented by Peart and Kassymon Putintseva are under greater pressure than the Mesozoic generation. They have reached the end of their careers and wanted to rely on the rich professional experience accumulated over more than ten years to create another glory.
Unexpectedly, the little girl from the ancient East did not give them a chance at all. Originally, only three top players from the Mesozoic era were competitors, but now there are several young players who play very hard.
The veterans are really exhausted.
Wimbledon has always been known as the world of attacking tennis. It is difficult for bottom-line players to make a difference in Wimbledon. However, in recent years, special grass species have increased the friction on the grass and decreased the ball speed.
Technologies such as ball netting are gradually declining, and Wimbledon seems to be moving closer to the bottom line. Only doubles has not seen many obvious changes.
This time at Wimbledon, Shah and Hannah signed up for singles and doubles at the same time and are doubles partners.
After winning the first round of singles, the two quickly came to the doubles arena to prepare for the first women's doubles match.
The liveliness of doubles and singles cannot be compared, but because this women's doubles is a combination of two super talented girls, the organizing committee promoted it very hard and arranged it on court No. 3. In addition, their fans bought it and came to watch the game.
There are quite a lot of people.
As a growing, rare female SLR player, Sha is undoubtedly offensive, but if she wants to beat An Yuexi, she must make a difference in front of the net, and doubles is the best way to improve her volley skills in front of the net.
Practical methods.
(I still don’t see An Yuexi partnering with male players and winning three Grand Slam mixed doubles championships. An Yuexi’s touch at the net is getting better and better, and she can be called the first person in women’s tennis)
Hannah and Sha had the same idea. After losing to An Yuexi again at the Australian Open in Melbourne, she decided to practice well in front of the net. However, it happened to be the clay court season and she couldn't do much in front of the net.
After the grass court season, she and Sha discussed playing doubles.
At present, their doubles team has achieved results in the quarter-finals and semi-finals. The doubles opponents at Wimbledon must be stronger than those on the tour. It is an excellent opportunity to practice at the net. They want to take this opportunity to enter deeper rounds and go to
Meet the doubles masters from Wimbledon.
As talented girls in singles, they just turned 18 last month and have entered the top ten in the world. They are super talents second only to An Yuexi. In every aspect, they are not inferior to the WTA girls.
Therefore, at the beginning of the game, the two stood on the double baseline, trying to use a powerful baseline attack to stun the opponent's combination, and then use the Australian formation (one person fighting in front of the net, one person fighting on the bottom line) to quickly grab points.
However, the double net formation in doubles requires too much of the players' net skills, reflexes and predictions. It would be difficult for them to play double net when they had just formed a doubles team. Therefore, they planned to use the double baseline position to try out their skills at the beginning.
, test the opponent's combination's ability to cope.
However, the women's doubles at Wimbledon was not comparable to the opponents encountered on the tour. The double baseline position was quickly defeated by the opponent's skillful double net tactics, and the serve was broken at the beginning.
Hannah Shah's doubles team encountered a crisis at the beginning...
Shen Qingqing carried her golf bag and knocked on the door of her doubles partner early in the morning. The group drove to the practice court to make final adjustments for today's first round of doubles.
Her partner is France's 29-year-old veteran Charlie Kent, who was confirmed after the French Open. She has reached the top twenty in the world and has won two tour singles championships.
The Frenchman is not as tall as typical European and American players, and he is a player who lacks strength. He is good at cutting and changing, so he can be regarded as a technical school. He retired two years ago due to pregnancy, and came back two years later. At the first stop, he met a newly debuted player.
An Yuexi was swept out of the competition.
This experience made the French veteran understand that she really couldn't win. The current women's tennis world may be very unstable, but the technical aspects have improved a lot compared to her time.
Maybe it's a shark. The French thought clearly and retreated to doubles and cooperated with others.
It happened that Shen Qingqing also wanted to enter the doubles field to hone his skills. After several twists and turns, they reached cooperation through their respective foreign friends.
