"Absolute Tennis" reading notes 63: Preparation before the Internet and four technical points

In the previous stage, I have been chasing news and comments in tennis events, and I stopped reading "Absolute Tennis". At this time of normal years, tennis should enter the Chinese season. However, due to the epidemic and other reasons, my country has suspended professional tennis events for three consecutive years.

From now until the year -end finals of November, there is a lack of heavyweight competitions with high attention during this time. I will continue to introduce the content of the book "Absolute Tennis" in this vacant period.

In the previous 62 reading notes, I introduced the first nine chapters of Marty Smith's "Absolute Tennis", namely: balance, power chain, mobile, grip, serving, kick, positive hand, backhand, putting on, putting on, putting on, playing Small balls and tall balls. Starting from this reading notes, we will enter the contents of Chapter 10, the theme is "Internet access".

Before the players of Sampras, the online play player above the tennis or higher was mainly based on the transitional character of the Internet -based player. His successful person, his success marks the age of men's tennis to enter the bottom line confrontation.

For amateur tennis enthusiasts, watching professional competitions is mainly appreciation, and there are not many reference to replicable experience. In the amateur competition, especially in the amateur doubles, the Internet is a tactical frequency. We can also say that the important criterion for judging the level of amateur players is to depend on whether he can access the Internet and whether he can come to the middle and frontcourt to win. Therefore, mastering and using the Internet tactics is particularly important for amateur players.

When talking about the topic of "surfing the Internet", Smith first introduced the preparations before surfing the Internet. In his opinion, being able to access the Internet indicates that you have made a great advantage in the previous shot, and this is usually brought by a strong flat -hitting ball or a spinning ball. In addition to surfing the Internet after playing a strong hitting ball, Smith also introduced the following three ways of hitting the Internet.

1. Cut the ball with the Internet

If the opponent's goal is low, such as below the waist, cutting is a better choice. At this time, the technical point is that you should try to cut the ball to the deep area of ​​the opponent's bottom line, so that the opponent stands back at the bottom line to return the ball, so that you can win more response time. After cutting out a high -quality return, if the conditions are mature, you can move forward to the net and prepare for the next interception.

2. Playing Lingkong Ball with the Internet

Different from cutting, if the opponent's goal is high in your head and shoulders, then the volley drawing is a better choice. Ling Qi beats with speed and strength to win, which can basically win in one blow. Sarapova was particularly good at coming to the frontcourt to play a volley ball. After playing the sky and then cooperating with the Internet, it will cause great psychological deterrence to the opponent.

3. Put a small ball with the Internet

Compared to the previous way of hitting the ball, playing small balls is not the most commonly used player choice before surfing the Internet. In Smith's view, the primary purpose of playing small balls is not to create winning points, but to mobilize the opponent to rush to the net, leaving a huge gap. Even if the opponent hit the small ball you played, you can easily return the ball back to the opponent's empty field.

After introducing several types of play to the Internet, Smith also summarized the technical points of the Internet play.

At that time before the Internet, your primary goal is to hit the ball in the deep area of ​​the opponent's bottom line. The deeper your return, the shorter the opponent's response time, the more difficult it is to play the ball.

Secondly, if you can choose, you have to try to return the ball back to the weak side of the opponent, such as back to the deep area of ​​the bottom line of the opponent's backhand.

Third, in terms of line selection, you can target the opponent's empty gear to play a slanting ball on the side of the opponent, so as to mobilize the opponent to run as much as possible.

Fourth, you may not always play the ball very biased. On the contrary, if you return the ball back to the deep area of ​​the middle line in the middle of the opponent, then he can choose to cross the angle. May be intercepted.
