It was during the heyday of Roger Federer, the ‘King of Tennis’. Usually, there was a shot to win the game to end the game quickly. It was a ‘chip and charge’ play. In order to receive the slow second serve of the opponent, he rushed to the net and used the power of the opponent’s strong hit to lightly pass the ball with a weak stroke to gain a point. 메이저사이트

According to the English glossary, ‘chip and charge’ is a compound word of ‘chip’, which means to cut into pieces, and ‘charge’, which means to receive. The word ‘chip’ comes from the Old English word ‘forcippian’, which means to cut off. ‘cipp’ is a word meaning a small piece of wood and was later borrowed as ‘chip’. ‘Charge’ has been used since the 13th century to mean a responsibility or obligation.

In tennis, to chip is to block an opponent’s shot with backspin. Chip-and-charge is an aggressive strategy in which the opponent’s serve is sent with backspin and volleyed in front of the net. In golf, a chip shot is a shot that lands low and sends it far. This strategy aims to hit the ball over the net while waiting in front of the net while the opponent drives. In particular, quick reactions and excellent defensive skills are required. The moment the opponent hits the ball, the defender can react quickly in front of the net to hit the ball over the net and surprise the opponent. This strategy is aggressive and carries a high risk, but if successful, it can do a great job undermining the opponent’s confidence. However, only highly skilled players can increase the success rate because a mistake can counterattack the opponent.

Chip and charge is a new term in tennis. Prior to 1975, the term was not used, according to tennis experts. As the competition in tennis skills intensifies, a new thing that has emerged is chip and charge. It is said that it was born out of a tactical need to control fast-breaking play from the net and induce passing shots. In the mid-1980s, full-fledged technology appeared. Players such as men’s tennis player Stefan Edberg (Sweden) and women’s tennis player Hana Mandrikova (Czech Republic) led the world in men’s and women’s tennis with the ‘killer shot’ of the chip and charge.
