After the match, everyone who came to watch the game dispersed. Xu Xinduo was also about to leave, but suddenly stopped. Yin Shaoshu picked up a racket and asked Xu Xinduo, “Hey, would you like to play a game?”
Xu Xinduo looked back at Yin Shaoshu and said coldly, “I’m too tired.”
“Well, I know you are tired. You don’t need to play best-of-three tiebreak sets. We can just play one set. Let’s have a competition. I’m very interested in your play style. If you win, I will give you a reward afterwards.”
Yin Shaoshu was participating in the men’s competition and he played pretty well. Most people felt that Yin Shaoshu would win first place.
Yin Shaoshu didn’t care about winning prizes, he just liked playing tennis.
The five thousand RMB prize was nothing to him and he was not short of money.
However, Xu Xinduo needed it.
Xu Xinduo originally planned to leave. However, when she heard the last part, she walked back to the playing field and asked him: “Who will get to serve?”
The match was on.
Yin Shaoshu looked at her and grinned heartily. Thinking that she was really straightforward and unpretentious.
No matter who the other party was, she didn’t like to beat around the bush. She liked to talk straight.
“Alternatively, it’s not a regular match. It’s just comparing notes.” Yin Shaoshu picked up a tennis ball and walked towards the serving point.
Xu Xinduo stood in her place.
The audience, who were about to leave, stopped as they were really curious about the true extent of Xu Xinduo’s skills.
Tong Yan frowned again. Things were getting completely out of control again.
Usually, whoever served first had the advantage. Because they had control of the ball, while their opponent would have to react and work hard to get the ball under their control.
Yin Shaosu was also not humble, with the ball in his hand, he decided to serve first.
He saw Xu Xinduo standing in the middle section on the service line, so he chose to serve from the outer edge of the backcourt line, as he wanted to use a slice serve. Using this method would increase the extent of external spin after the ball hit the ground, its angle would affect the amount of strength that Xu Xinduo could apply on her return.
At the moment of receiving the ball, Xu Xinduo felt that Yin Shaoshu’s strength was much stronger than that of the previous female players and she immediately changed her grip after hitting back.
If she couldn’t keep up with the speed of the ball and put force behind it, she would end up making mistakes.
Physical strength was one aspect. Strength and flexibility were also very important.
Sometimes, even aggressive players are forced to play conservatively.
Yin Shaosu’s playing style was really good, he was able to combine both lob and backspin, as well as taking advantage of a solid tennis court as much as possible. He had a fast pace and strong adaptability. He was undoubtedly a good tennis player.
As her strength was not enough, Xu Xinduo changed her strategy. She connected the lob with a backspin and tried her best to use the space of the field to carry out tactical attacks.
It got harder and harder to counter her strategies as the game progressed.
In the end, Xu Xinduo won the match.
Although her physical fitness was not as good as her opponent, Xu Xinduo won because of her brain.
Yin Shaoshu was dissatisfied with the defeat and finally realized the anger of the female player just now. The feeling of being teased throughout the whole match was really annoying.
