Chapter 37.2 - Looking forward to day # 2

James Cooper's main skills are drop shots and robes. His drive serve is just a matter of adding the tips from those two techniques to the serve. The low level of sub skills is probably because of that.

Han-woo-jin, who decided that, took a stance. It was a threat, but it wasn't an unbreakable ball. On the contrary, the degree of bending is so severe that a predictable category is created.

The opponent's serve is a runaway ball that specializes in aiming outward rather than inside the service court. If your opponent runs away from your back, you can run without looking around.

phut!

Finally served again. Han Woo-jin held a bizarre turn hanging on the ball with his narrow eyes. Serve bent so much that it takes a bit too much. Although an enemy, James' skill was excellent.

However,

'I saw you!'

Han Woo-jin opened his eyes. For a moment, it caught the omen just before the ball bent. James's serve was great, but in the end it was just a borrowing that brought in other technical principles. Shallow depth was inevitable.

Hanwoojin's center of gravity on both thighs leaned to the right, and his left leg began to lean forward from the ground.

Muscle strength is by no means confined to the arm. It was also a concept that included the strength and angular power of the legs. Han Woo-jin's body swept the ground and quickly entered the service court.

It sounded light. The ball was in range, but it was one step late to hit the ball. Still, the ball hit the racquet barely crossed the net back to James' court.

And James did not move. He opened his mouth slightly and looked at his serve, which was returned for the first time.

"Love Fifteen (0: 15)!"

But the judgment did not stop. Nogu's English man declared Hanwoojin's return ace in a loud voice. Korean commentators cheered as well.

-Finally moved, Hanwoojin! 2 did not move in the game was to get the momentum now! It was wonderful return as if to say!

-It was unclear whether it was aiming or not, but it was a very valid choice to use a drop shot on James who didn't know how to take it. Isn't it, car commentary?

-Yes. It's too late to run late. James's embarrassed face is impressive. It makes me realize that I've eaten one.

The timing was a bit off and hit an unexpected drop shot, but it was a surprisingly good choice. There was no skill to stab opponent's votes as much as a drop shot. And drop is one of James's specialties. Because of that, the sub was broken

did.

Han Woo-jin watched his opponent's appearance as he loosened his squeaky ankle while moving roughly. James grabbed the ball and silently looked down at it. Did you blame the ball for betraying him? It was unknown to Hanwoojin.

But pro is pro. James tossed the ball again. But the posture was plain. If the drive already thought it was worthless, James thoroughly beat out the regular serve.

phut!

'flat?'

Right speed, right track. It's okay, but that's the only serve. Not only Han Woo-jin, but any other player, the response is familiar. Hanwoojin's racket moved to a level close to the reflexes, and the fire exploded.

phut!

But that is also the case. Hanwoojin wriggled the eyebrows late, catching James's appearance into the net. It's too late to deal with it.

barrel-

A neat move that bounced the racket gently pushed the ball. The ball hit James' racket and rolled over Hanwoojin's court, losing all his strength.

"Fifteen All (15: 15)!"

Han Woo-jin regained his mind as he saw the point returned to the whistle. What he awoke is nothing but his opponent's main skill. The essence of drop shots and robes wasn't seen properly. In return for a successful break

The advantage gained is broken.

'Well, let's do it.'

Anyway, it is ATP tour that prepared for the war. Even if the level is a bit lower, it is not an area that can be compared with the challenger. Participants were professionally selected athletes from each country who proved their skills.

Rather, Han Woo-jin, who pulled his mouth wildly, lowered his posture as if he had risen. Even if your opponents were doing double-shots between drop shots and robes, there was no way. Rather, psychological warfare he was quite confident.

The fight can be decided by who stabbed the opponent's vote.

And Hanwoojin was a fighter that was second to none as much as the experience he had rolled from the gutter.

* * *

The first set ended with a score of 6-4, with both players failing to respond properly to each other's skills. Hanwoojin is a bit dominant, but not overwhelming.

Still, the flow was steadily changing. It was Han Woo-jin who began to experience the change in the second set.

'… I'm used to it. '

No matter how great a skill, you'll have to gain experience and adapt over time. Hanwoojin's sub-rate as well as James's drop-and-lobe technique didn't go beyond common sense.

A new Hanwoojin's service ace stopped recording, and James's drop or robe also lost point determination. The rally, which began to sag, was turning into a stage where the two players competed fundamentally.

[Skill upgrade progress: 95%]

Hanwoojin kicked his tongue almost at the early stage of completion. Only five more service aces are needed, and James has already adapted to his serve. It seemed last year to achieve 100% progress in this game.

It was foolish to devote a lot of energy to serve. Han Woo-jin did not intend to be a fool who missed something bigger than something small. Now that Serve lost his scoring, what he had to look at was a win in the game.

"Game James!"

James, who won his sub-game, vomited his breath. The score is 4-2. It was a little different from 1 set which did not know each other well. Overall, James was pushed down smoothly.

Han Woo-jin was dissatisfied and caught the ball handed over by the agent. Of course, the break of the sub game was difficult. The serve is the start of a rally and preemptive strike that takes the lead. It's no surprise that those who hold that right have the upper hand.

It was.

And now the right is returned to Hanwoojin. It was approaching the end of the game. If he wins two more games, he will advance to the round of 16. I didn't have to drag the game and accumulate fatigue.

"Game 7, Ujin Han Serving Play!"

At about the same timing as the declaration of judgment, the ball flew in the sky. It is meaningless to try the tricks in the situation where the fabric is already dark. Han Woo-jin just struck a flat flat serve quickly.

phut!

It fell more than one set, but it is still fast fast. The ball that flew off the wind was blocked by James, who jumped out as if he had waited. Hanwoojin had to reselect the options he encountered again and again.

'Drop? Or robe? '

If it's a drop, it's too late to react. The bounds of the drop shots are very low, and you have to narrow the distance before the stroke to hit them with a volley or a half volley.

But if it's not a drop, it's Lobra? In anticipation of the drop, I would have run over my head and left the ball behind my back.

James' strength was right here.

The wicked technique that made the point miss almost instantaneously losing points was admirable.

If Hanwoojin hadn't noticed his habit, the game would have been difficult.

'The shoulder went down. Is it Rob? '

A lightly bouncing drop, a lobe that hits the ball in a parabolic orbit, eventually makes a difference in preparation. No matter how hard you try to conceal the omen, it was impossible to conceal it completely if your opponent decided to dazzle.

phut-

As expected, James's racket drew an arc. Rob gently hit the sky soaring, Hanwoojin stopped the body to go ahead and put on the coat. Although Sparrow was sealed, he had another special skill.

Smash the ball if your opponent doesn't float the ball over your head. For the first time in recent years, bullets fired from the rackets of Hanwoojin.

pop!

The ball hit the court with a frightening burst. As James faltered, the soaring ball dropped off the court.

"Fifteen Love (15: 0)!"

The two players changed their complexion at the same time. One lighter, the other darker. It was a room that let me know which way the balance of the game was tilted.

Just as a tricked-out magician loses its usefulness, reading a harbinger is meaningless. The one who reveals his bottom first is defeated. And it was James's first flooring.

Han Woojin threw the next ball without hesitation. His racket has gone through the air without hesitation.

* * *

There were many buildings in the center of Shenzhen, China. The facilities were well equipped for the large companies from all over the world that were in development and tourists who gathered due to the various tourist attractions.

The top floor suite of one of the most luxurious five star hotels. There a man looked down at the ground with his back undressed.

"It's a pretty good view. Do you not think so, Ed? "

The physically trained body seemed to show that it was not unusual. The blood vessels between the bulging deltoid muscles and the dorsum muscles on the backs were awful, rather than human.

But the bottle of wine held in his right hand broke his colic. A bald man, called Ed, came up with a nasty face and caught the bottle he was holding.

"Max! I told you not to drink during the competition! "

"Wow, don't get excited. Anyway, that's too low, is a bottle okay? "

Unlike Ed, whose white face was red like a tomato, Marx was relaxed until the end. In fact he was not drunk at all. The amount of liquor was too high, but the physically trained to the limit would not make an error in its function without sake.

Max was the world's 62nd-largest German monster, only two years after he started playing tennis. His innate talent made him a prospect and knocked down hundreds of rankers before the technology was even polished.

But that outstanding talent did not reach humanity. Max was just as happy as he was, and Ed, who was his exclusive agent and coach, was always in trouble.

Now, ignoring his familiarity, Ed plugged his camera into the TV. It seemed to play the video file that I recorded. Max looked out of the window and asked with a puzzled face.

"What, have you ever got porn?"

"Why do you get that ?! Don't be bullshit, sit up straight or look. I only recorded some notable players. "

"A ~"

Max lay on the couch with a sulky face. Ed would let you see, but to be honest he was bothersome. There were no higher ranking players in the tournament, and they just came to China for sightseeing.

The two players began to move on the blue court on TV, and the playing time of the video exceeded two hours.

"Hah."

It was as expected.

Drooling yawning, Max rubbed his eyes with tears and released his stiff eye.

Players of nothing, boring skills were boring. I just wanted to put my eyes on it, but I couldn't do it because of someone who changed my teeth next to me.

'How long should we watch this?'

It was shortly after Max, who was bored and dying, got up.

"… Ed. "

"Huh?"

Ed, standing against the wall, was surprised. Max fell out of the body was not enough, because it was hardening the relaxed mug. He reflexively turned to the screen Max was looking at.

"Oh, Mr. Han?"

"Han? Is that the player's name? "

"Well… I remember it was a castle. I don't know. Oriental names are a bit complicated. "

But Max didn't care. He squeezed his pupils tight while watching Han Woo-jin hitting the serve on the court. Tension came back to the whole body loosened loosely, and swelled muscles swelled with alcohol.

It was like a bird of prey preparing for a leap. Ed swallowed my mouth unknowingly.

'What, is that Max like to taste?'

The eyes of the agent and the athlete are different. There were overlapping parts, but it was often the player's side to look deeper. Maybe this time too. What Ed could not see, Max could see.

"What is your nationality? Is it China? Or Japan? "

"Wait a minute… Korea. Have you ever heard? "

"no. Anyway, Asia is there. I just asked once. Maybe it's like Asian American? "

"Hmm, that's so."

In the dialogue between them, there was a natural feeling of contempt for Asian players. It was not a bad feeling, but because of the narrow position of Asian players in the tennis world, it was an overwhelming atmosphere.

Max laughed wildly. Where I came to play chew prey was wandering around. Tennis was also a kind of entertainment for him. There is a partner to enjoy, so I feel excited.

"Han… "

Laying down on a new road, he saw Hanwoojin, who rolled his eyes only and won the victory on the screen. His face was deeply sinking compared to the young face. Max snores at the impression that even weight is conveyed, and Max reveals his teeth.

"I'm falling in Asia."
