After 11 French Opens and 17 Grand Slams, Nadal said: He cannot beat time

I watched the 2018 French Open quarter-final Zvelev vs Tim at the Philippe Chadiere Stadium. Zvilev’s height of 198 cm seems to be alarming in reality, but he can also evade a few advances and retreats. From time to time, he plays an exquisite return. In the second half of the second set, Tim kept on the Internet. The ball, move Zvilev forward, and so on, Zvirev back from time to time with a magic ball - like an elephant with a nose to show you a cross stitch.

"Zvelev is a genius!" said a certain brand employee who went with him.

"Instead, Tim can't beat it," I said.

indeed. Zvilev must play the magical ball - the elephant's nose-like cross stitch - to get points in Tim's hands; other times, no matter how good he is, Tim is like a tough one. Shields, blocking Zyrevov cannons, howitzers, rifle bullets, or slingshots, and then returning to a very hard-to-return ball; once Zvelev's ball is short, Tim steps forward. Easy to put the ball.

In the second half of the second set, after Zvelev's thighs were strained, Tim continued to wear away; on the sidelines, you could clearly feel that Zverev was slowing down, being anxious and losing his confidence: At the last moment he made a sound, as if the elephant's final fury, but no way.

Tim is like a vine plant beside the swamp, and Zvelev is dead.

"This is a clay court." I couldn't say anything to the staff. "The speed of the ball will slow down, the speed will become faster, and the movement will be more laborious than the hard ground and pasture. So who is tougher, who can turn, who is more? Can run, whoever takes the championship - Zhang Depei's only Grand Slam here.

Later, outside of Susanna Stadium, we looked up at the big screen and watched Djokovic lose to Secinato: Last year I also saw him winning Schwarzman here. I remember Djojo at the time. Kovic's determination of the placement and keen and rapid movement in place, after the first swing to turn passively active swing; Even if Schwarzman used double reverse line, always wipe the line to form a winning ball, Djokovic still To deal with Yu Yu - and this time a year later, Druid two grabs lost.

"Not that he couldn't bite. After all, he just returned from a bad state." I explained to my friend, "The clay court has been very gratifying."

"What happened to Natto?" the staff asked.

I thought for a long time and said: "Because Natto will own it, it is also more polished than the clay court."

When I interviewed Cretega last year, he said: Now players can't leave flaws in their skills, they must be accustomed to the bottom line, ensure the quality of each ball, and have plenty of mobility.

He said: The masters of clay courts all know that playing clay is to a large extent compete with oneself, so when training, they will consciously simulate various difficult situations and conditions.

He said: The tennis career is a marathon-style race.

In the final, Tim defeated Nadal, losing 0-3. Do not blame him: Tim may be the most active player like Nadal. Therefore, he can frustrate Zavilev, who looks more talented, just as Nadal can abrade del Potro. But when Tim encountered Nadal, the apprentice met Master.

On the tenacity and tangling of Tim, Tim is not stronger than Nadal; and Nadal also has his first fortune from ancient times to the present. The clay court has made the ball go faster and faster, so that he can play the right hand in the world: every fire is a meteor, and each and every one is fully committed. Tim locks at the bottom line and the back is soft and weak.

When he was young, Nadal stepped up his muscles, endlessly strong spins, madly running back, and biting any game that he did not loosen. It was a seven-injured fist that killed the enemy and caused damage. So he is constantly adding new weapons: his internet, his ball, and his skills in adding new leaves. In the 2018 French Open final, it was like Nadal was playing against a younger, more uniform player. So when the Natto transforms some tricks, when it's too fast and slow, Tim will not be able to beat him.

Previously, Federer described Nadal, "every shot can get an advantage." This is his style: Every beat, every game, every game, every game, every cup game, he doesn't deceive the game. On the clay court, he kills opponents with each beat, oppresses opponents, overlaps, and invincible. The hero of a comic book is generally stubborn and does not die of blood, just like he likes Goku in Dragon Ball.

Of course, therefore, his shoulder is more easily injured than anyone else.

In 2014, Nadal cried in tears when he got his ninth French Open. That year he suffered injuries and illnesses. So, "I don't know when it was time for me to get the next French Open." In 2016, he did withdraw from the French Open. At the beginning of this year, he withdrew from the Australian Open due to injury and lost to Tim in Madrid. However, in the summer of 2018, he once again got the French Open.

"Nadal got the French Open." It has become the longest fixed drama in the history of sports. It has surpassed the "Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi took the Golden Globe Award." More than the 1960s, the Celtics took the NBA again. The championship, more than "Juventus took the Serie A champion again." If anyone crosses from 2008 to 2018 and asks "who ruled the tennis world this year", we can say without saying: "Or Federer and Nadal", that guy will definitely collapse?

But perseverance is inherently difficult: you must beat time.

Nadal is actually a bit old. In the final of the French Open final against Tim, he had cramped fingers and applied for a break to massage the thighs. In the quarter-finals Zverev was at these moments, and Tim found an opportunity: On the clay court, exhaustion was the beginning of a crash. But after that, Nadal did not give Tim a chance. He is exhausted, but he still wins 3-0.

• In the past two clay seasons, Tim was the only person who beat Nadal on the clay court.

• In the finals, Tim himself said that he had gone from beginning to end, no regrets: he was bombed by natto 17 points and rescued 12 of them. He is tenacious enough.

• Only, Natto is more tenacious than him.

Nadal is more like a real warrior than Federer's graceless, unassuming surreal. You can't help but be surprised: He's obviously tired, why can he continue?

do not know.

"You can't beat time. If you told me seven or eight years ago that I was 32 years old and I won the championship at the French Open, I would think that's an impossible task, but now I'm here."

Remember when Natto looked like seven or eight years ago? By contrast, time is so ruthless.

The hero of a comic book is generally stubborn and does not die of blood, just like he likes Goku in Dragon Ball.

The masters of the clay courts know that playing clay is largely a rival to themselves.

Tennis career is a marathon run.

Every time he runs into the place, the rotation of each hand is accumulating a victory for Nadal. It's a lot of savings. He just put it this way.

The Eleventh French Open. The seventeenth grand slam. Federer harvested the world's most successful slams throughout the year, and Natto won more opponents in the fiery summer.

Chao Yi is a great one. Perseverance is another great thing. This kind of tenacity makes people feel justified, but there is such a monster in the world.

In 2016, coach Francis Huy said that Nadal’s ideal was to continue playing.

“Nardar was still skeptical about whether he was still able to fight at the age of 30 years ago, but now his mind has completely changed. Now he told me that if it is necessary to have an operation for the game, then he would be able to persist until he is 33.”

This year Nadal is 32 years old and has also acquired the French Open.

"I'm going to keep hitting and hitting the day when I can support my body and hitting I still love the end of tennis," he said.

He is really a little old, but he is more than a silent tenacity. He has already shown cracks and wrinkles, stars and winds, but he can still continue his attitude.

"You can't beat time," he said himself.

Those who know that they are doomed to lose and continue, are truly brave.

What's more, no, Nadal: You and Federer are continuing to frustrate time.
