ATP1000 the second round of the men's singles at the Rome Masters, due to the withdrawal of the No. 13 seed French Ember, Shang Juncheng (No.105), who played as a lucky loser, lost 11 games in a row, and was defeated by local wild card player Napolitano (No.125) 7-6 (3), 1-6, 0-6.
It's a pity that Shang Juncheng failed to grasp the qualifying round, and went directly to the second round as a substitute, holding the first-round bye of the No. 13 seed, missing the wealth and golden opportunity of 1 win and 3 wins, and played a lonely role.
Lost, Shang Juncheng scored 10+10 points, 30,255 euros, and ranked 98th immediately.
In addition, in the 2023 ATP New Force Finals, they are ranked 3rd, behind French rising stars Firth and Czech Menchick, who have been eye-catching this season. However, if you can't play your own characteristics, it will still be a little difficult for small businesses to play in the ATP game.
Currently, the number of wins of the Chinese men's tennis team in the Masters are:
- Zhang Zhizhen 11 games
- Wu Yixuan 4 games
- 3 business completions
- Buyun Chaoket won 1.
The strength of the Italian Napolitano is really not good, the power is average, the ball is soft, the attack can't tear the angle, and the main mistake is a slow grind. However, at 1.98 meters, his serve is still good, and the board that follows belongs to the type of Tianke for Shang Juncheng, who is small and lacks absolute strength. Xiaoshang has lost many similar opponents before, including Hussler in the Challenger.
On the other hand, Xiao Shang's mood today is really not high, perhaps because he can't borrow strength, Shang Juncheng's ball also shows a soft look, and the offense has neither depth nor speed nor angle, so he has been in the rhythm of the opponent for a long time, and has played a 1000 game alive to the level of a challenge game.
To put it bluntly, this is a game that I don't see, the return balls of both sides are basically within the service line, and there is no confrontation at all, as long as the small business plays speed and confrontation, the opponent is basically all kinds of sends, if this can't win the ball, then the small business has to seriously reflect on himself.
First set:
In the first 4 games, both sides held serve and drew 2-2; In the 5th game, Shang Juncheng suddenly dropped the line and was broken, which caught people off guard, 2-3;In the 7th game, Shang Juncheng went out of bounds with high pressure, returned the ball out of bounds, and all kinds of mistakes flew all over the sky, 0-40 sent 3 break points, fortunately, at the critical moment, Xiao Shang stabilized, a turn back to win, Shang Juncheng scored 5 points in a row, difficult to hold, 3-4; In the 8th game, Napolitano's goal rate dropped in a row, and in the case of 40-0, it was reversed by Xiao Shang, and on the break point, the Italian made a double mistake to give a big gift, which was really laughable, and Xiao Shang broke back, 4-4.
In the 9th game, Shang Juncheng returned to his senses after the break, and also regained a little self-confidence, and the choice of the line began to increase the aggressiveness, and it was easier to win the game with the initiative to change the line, holding the serve, 5-4; In the 10th game, Napolitano was in the case of a 40-0 lead, and was chased by Shang Juncheng in a row, but unfortunately Shang Juncheng, who missed 1 break point, failed to continue to stage a comeback, 5-5.
Tie-break seven battles, the second point, Shang Juncheng changed the line to win, 2-0, and then, Shang Juncheng expanded the score to 6-3; At the end of the set, Napolitano returned the ball out of bounds, 7-3, Shang Juncheng won!
Second Handicap:
Shang Juncheng completely fell into the slow rhythm of the opponent and couldn't extricate himself, neither could exert his strength, but also couldn't use his strength to play, and after 1-1, he lost his heart like crazy, lost 5 games in a row, and surrendered 1-6.
Little boy, no passion, how can this be beaten?
Tiebreaker
Shang Juncheng came up and suffered consecutive breaks, 0-3, the opponent's level is really vegetable, Shang Juncheng played like this, it is also incredible; Subsequently, Shang Juncheng suspected that his arm was uncomfortable and called a medical timeout.
The game resumed, Shang Juncheng was still in a slump, and as a result, he didn't score a game in the deciding set and lost 0-6!
In the whole game, Shang Juncheng lost 11 games in a row after 1-1 in the second set, swallowed fritters and eggs, and was swept out.
Actually, such a loss is very uncomfortable. One is because the opportunity is rare, but because Shang Juncheng faced such an opponent without the slightest fighting spirit and passion, and such a habitual loss is actually not the first time!
Well, it's over Rome, and we'll see you in the French Open qualifiers!
