Chapter 507 Singles 1, Ishikawa Vs. Polk
quiet!
The huge stadium suddenly fell into silence!
Even the Japanese team players forgot to celebrate for a moment. They still had a dreamy feeling when they looked at Tezuka and Atobe, who were standing one behind the other, facing the crowd sideways.
"The doubles between these two is so strong!"
Dankmar Schneider, a professional player of the German team, couldn't help but praise.
"Um."
His partner, Polke's brother Berti, also nodded heavily.
The cooperation between these two people can be described as flawless. Whether attacking or defending, a high degree of consistency can be maintained.
Coupled with their respective strengths, if they switch to doubles, they will definitely become a professional-level combination in the shortest possible time.
only.
Both Schneider and Berti knew very well that it was impossible for the two people in front of them to play doubles.
Compared to singles, doubles gets too little attention. Moreover, with the personalities shown by these two people, I am afraid they will not be willing to switch to doubles.
"What a pity."
Berti sighed.
Despite knowing that if these two people switch to doubles, they will definitely become their fierce rivals. But the doubles circle was too monotonous, and he also wanted to join some players who would make him feel the pressure.
But this is so unrealistic.
"Ohhhhh!!!"
soon.
Everyone came to their senses.
In addition to the fans of the Japanese team, many other spectators, including fans of the German team, began to cheer.
Nothing else.
The game has entered this stage. After the two sides tied at 2-2, they are about to enter the final singles 1 final.
And this will also be the first appearance of Polk, the strongest player on the German team and the strongest high school student in this World Cup.
As fans of the German team, how could they not be excited.
"Next, the singles match 1 will begin."
Just as the players from both sides left the court, the announcement rang again: "Jurgen Barisavage Polk (Grade 3) representing the German team versus Shin Ishikawa (Grade 1) representing the Japanese team!"
"Please prepare both players."
The words fell.
The stadium was noisy again.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the two calm-looking figures on both sides of the court.
"As expected, it turned out to be a duel between these two people."
Pieter Laimbeer, the consultant of the Swiss team, said with emotion: "I didn't expect the showdown between the two strongest players in this year's World Cup to take place so soon."
"yes."
Federer also nodded.
Immediately, he glanced at Amadeus next to him strangely.
Because, when this year's lineup was announced, Amadeus, as the only professional player along with Polk, was once regarded as the strongest player under Polk.
However.
However, the opponent lost to the young captain of the Japanese team in the group stage. Not only Amadeus, but also Qp of the German team, Reinhardt of the American team, and Camus of the French team.
The top experts from all walks of life were swept by each other.
now.
Only Polk of the German team and Medanore of the Spanish team are left.
"You say"
Federer narrowed his eyes and said: "Can that boy from the Japanese team create an undefeated legend in this year's World Cup?"
"Disaster!"
Ranbir shook his head and answered without thinking.
As he always speaks with data, he naturally knows that Ishikawa is very strong. But unlike others, he knew Polk's statistics, which made them even more dazzling.
"Compared to Ishikawa, Polk's record is even more amazing."
Without waiting for anyone to ask, Laimbeer said in a deep voice: "Since he turned professional last year, he has not lost a single game. Including the recent German competition, Polk exceeded everyone's expectations and defeated that A Novak Brynner player!”
Novak Brenner? !
Everyone in the Swiss team was shocked when they heard this name. This is the No. 1 existence in today’s professional tennis world.
Some people who were unaware even widened their eyes in disbelief.
"Even that one lost to Polk?"
"Yes."
Amadeus nodded heavily.
Because of that game, he watched the whole thing. Novak Brynner is very strong and deserves to be the number one player in the profession. But in the end, he lost to Polk.
After watching that game, he was deeply shocked.
Amadeus never imagined that there would be such terrifying players among high school students.
After that game.
The media and professional tennis circles all regard Polk as someone who will dominate tennis in the next ten years.
"pity."
Thinking of this, Amadeus' eyes fell on the calm-looking black-haired boy on the other side of the court: "The existence of this person has shaken Polk's status."
That's right.
The current Ishikawa may not be able to defeat Polk.
But in terms of tennis talent, Ishikawa definitely surpasses Polk, and is even the only one among the players Amadeus knows.
The only weakness is that the other party is too young.
It is obvious that Ishikawa has not fully grown up yet. This is also Polk's opportunity. If he can defeat the opponent in this game, it may even plant the seeds of defeat in Ishikawa's heart.
It is very likely that he will keep suppressing the opponent in his future career.
This duel is also the one where Polk is most likely to defeat Ishikawa.
Almost everyone.
Including the Spanish team players who have been confirmed to enter the finals, everyone's face is full of seriousness and seriousness.
Even as arrogant as they are, they don't dare to underestimate the two people in front of them.
tread!
tread!
The 10 minutes of preparation time is over quickly.
Ishikawa and Polk, under the spotlight, entered from the left and right sides of the court.
In front of the net.
The two stood opposite each other.
Polk, who had a thin face but sharp eyes like blades, locked his gaze on his opponent: "You are growing faster than I thought. If I guessed correctly, you should have completely entered that field, right?"
"Isn't it the same for you, Your Excellency?"
Ishikawa smiled faintly: "Being able to defeat the world's number one professional player means you have entered that field a long time ago. I also want to know how far you have gone."
In the original work.
By relying on the power of Nirvana and the awareness of risking their lives, Byodoin narrowly defeated Polk.
After the game.
Byodoin suffered severe physical injuries and was unable to participate in the finals. Polk, on the other hand, was still sweating very little at the end of the game.
In this regard, Ishikawa has reason to suspect that the German team leader who defeated the world's number one professional player may not have shown his full strength at the time.
Or rather.
He did not expect that Byodo-in would be able to successfully raid in the end.
therefore.
Ishikawa was always wary of the young man in front of him. At the same time, he also wanted to use the other party to test where he had gone.
Because, in his sight at this time, Polk, his opponent, had a red name of [Lv99] on his head.
This is the highest level opponent he has ever encountered.
soon.
After both sides completed the selection of the right to serve, they each entered the baseline range.
"Ahem."
On the high chair, the new referee who had just been replaced was too nervous. After clearing his throat subconsciously, he said: "The match is best in three sets."
"First set."
"Germany's Polk serves, the game is over!"
Suddenly.
The entire stadium fell into absolute silence.
Everyone's eyes fell on the bald young man wearing a black coat on the court.
Snap!
Snap!
Snap!
But all he saw was Polk tapping the tennis ball gently. After finding the feeling, he threw the tennis ball up. Then he swung his racket and made a very standard serving motion.
Bang!
but.
With the sound of hitting the ball.
A light yellow streamline flashed across everyone's eyes. Most people don't even see the specific trajectory of tennis clearly.
"So fast!!!"
As soon as this thought came to many people's minds, Polk's serve had already landed. If it were them, let alone fighting back, it would be difficult for their thoughts to keep up with the speed of tennis.
Bang!
but.
Almost at the same time as the tennis ball hit the ground, the crisp sound of hitting the ball sounded again.
Everyone turned their heads subconsciously.
However, their sight passed by the light yellow streamline that turned back, and then they saw Ishikawa, who was still swinging.
"Half volley?"
The moment their eyes rested on the opponent, Bismarck, Seyfried and other German team players subconsciously had this idea in their minds.
"What a joke!"
Immediately, Frankensteiner blurted out: "That guy actually used a half-volley to knock back General Polk's serve?"
"It's more than that."
Qp spoke.
He, who had always behaved very calmly, now squinted his eyes and fixed his gaze on the baseline on the side of Polk's backhand.
There.
There was a clear white mark.
The opponent not only responded to Polk's serve with a half-volley, but also accurately hit the baseline.
Even Qp, who had played against Ishikawa before, still felt an extremely strong impact in his heart at this moment due to his ability to control the ball.
"Nice comeback."
Polk nodded.
Subsequently.
He raised his racket and hit a backhand blow. With the same sharp counterattack, he drove the tennis ball into the baseline of Ishikawa's backhand.
"Well come."
Looking at the tennis ball that was shooting straight towards him with a powerful spin, Ishikawa chuckled and immediately moved sideways, naturally making way for a suitable hitting space.
There was a bang.
The tennis ball was easily counterattacked by him.
"hiss"
However, the seemingly random duel between the two was full of danger in the eyes of others, especially those tennis players who boasted their own strength.
Every ball made them sweat.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
But.
Ishikawa and Polk, however, did not pause at all, and continued to engage in fierce fighting.
5 goals.
10 goals.
15 goals.
Over time.
The two sides actually played against each other for nearly 40 consecutive goals, and there was no slowdown at all.
"As expected of the person who defeated Qp."
After some probing, Polk couldn't help but nod: "Normally speaking, as the number of sparring increases, the players' mental stress, nervous system response, including body muscles, will have varying degrees of impact."
Muscle soreness will affect a player's ability to control the ball.
The speed of reaction will affect the player's judgment and response.
The mental pressure will cause players to gradually reduce the probability of hitting sidelines in order to ensure that the ball falls within the bounds.
but.
A full 40-goal clash.
Ishikawa responded very calmly, like a machine, repeating the same precise hitting as the first ball.
This is very exaggerated!
Because even Frankensteiner, known as the [Tennis Robot], cannot maintain such a level of continuous hitting.
No.
If it were Frankensteiner, he wouldn't be able to catch the first ball and would be killed by Polk.
But is Ishikawa a robot?
Apparently not.
Polk knew very well that the reason why the opponent's batting quality had not declined was because it had not reached its limit. As long as you are human, there will be limits!
Bang!
Thinking of this.
Polk decisively strengthened his hitting power, and the ball speed increased almost without warning. Moreover, the trajectory of its landing point is still very accurate.
"Oh."
Anyone else would have been caught off guard. But Ishikawa just smiled faintly. He lifted the racket and, under the shocked eyes of everyone, once again used a half-volley to counterattack the tennis ball.
Bang!
The tennis ball hits the ground.
Shockingly, it hit the bottom line again.
"hiss"
Seeing this, the players from the German team gasped.
Even Polk looked at Ishikawa with a bit more surprise and sharpness.
Subsequently.
He once again increased the power of the shot and added spin, making the tennis return more difficult again.
but.
Ishikawa quickly counterattacked the tennis ball again.
What surprised Polk even more was that the opponent still used a half-volley to hit the tennis ball back.
"Has his half-volley reached the level of a top professional player?"
Polk was shocked.
Because in his opinion, unless the opponent has been practicing tennis since birth, it will be difficult to improve the half volley to such an amazing level.
Snap!
And at the moment when Polk was distracted.
Ishikawa changed his moves very quickly and hit a beautiful short ball.
"Um?"
Polk's eyes changed slightly.
Because the control of this short ball was not inferior to the level of the top professional players he had ever seen.
Tread! !
no way.
He had no choice but to step forward and hit the tennis ball up before it hit the ground again.
"In addition to half-volley, is his short ball also so good?"
Polk thought to himself, and he vaguely realized that neither he nor the German team's intelligence collectors had any real information about the person in front of him.
Not to mention other abilities.
Just with short balls and half-volleys, the opponent can rank among professionals.
"actually"
call!
at the same time.
However, Ishikawa's figure leaped high into the air.
"My smash is stronger than half volley and short ball!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he aimed at the flying tennis ball and slammed down the racket.
Boom!
A muffled sound came from Polk's feet.
He subconsciously wanted to intercept with his racket, but found that the smash was more accurate than he expected. Moreover, with the posture of receiving the short ball, it is difficult for him to counterattack the ball.
then.
Under the shocked eyes of everyone, the tennis ball just shot past Polk.
quiet!
The entire stadium was so quiet at this moment that you could hear a pin drop!
