Give me six more years, says Jelena Brisbane, 30 December 2010 | Darren Saligari Six more years. That’s how long Jelena Dokic said she would like to continue playing for when she spoke to the media on Thursday outside Brisbane’s Pat Rafter Arena. The 27 year old was awarded a wildcard into the Brisbane International several weeks ago, and more recently free passes into the Australian Open and the Medibank International Sydney, and has arrived in Brisbane hoping to create some havoc on the court and perhaps cause an upset or two. 27歲澳洲女將Dokic，在幾週前就率先拿到布里斯本賽的外卡，也不費吹灰之力地，獲得澳網及雪梨賽的外卡資格。她在本週二向外界表示，自己的網球生涯，至少能持續六年以上，目前她則希望能在接下來的比賽爆幾個冷門。 “The fact that I got a wildcard into all of them I would like to take advantage of that and get some wins maybe, and get some points and get my ranking up.” This is Dokic’s third trip to Brisbane, but she’s yet to make it past the first round. “I love this tournament, I played here the first year when it came and I’ve always had tough draws but it’s been a good preparation.” In that first year, 2009, Dokic fell to former world No.1 Amelie Mauresmo 7-6(9) 7-6(5), in the tightest of straight-sets losses. Two weeks later she would charge to the Australian Open quarterfinals against all the odds. And last year she was unlucky to face another former No.1 in Ana Ivanovic – this time she went down in three sets. "我會利用自己獲得外卡資格的優勢，試著贏得幾場勝利，增加我的績分，讓排名能上升一些。" 這是Dokic第三次參加布里斯本網賽，但卻從未通過首輪。 "我喜歡這個賽事。第一次參賽時，我的籤表還蠻硬的，但對準備澳網很有幫助。" 她第一次參賽是在2009年，Dokic在首輪輸給法國名將Amelie Mauresmo，以7-6(9) 7-6(5)的成績，在緊張的兩場搶七賽中落敗。 2010年則是很不幸地在首輪遇上另一位前世界第一，塞爾維亞姑娘Ana Ivanovic，這回是打滿三盤後被淘汰。 A loss that Dokic says came about in part due to the weight of expectation that had been following her since her stunning return to form at Australian Open 2009. “Last year [there] was much more [expectation] and I think it played its part. I had a lot of pressure on me and I didn’t play great here or in Hobart or in Melbourne, especially Melbourne. “I have no pressure on me this time and I feel like I’m in much better physical shape but also with my tennis I’m much more relaxed, I’m playing well and I’m really looking forward to 2011.” Despite the early exits, Dokic still rates Brisbane as a great place to prepare for the first Grand Slam of the year. “It’s very hot and humid here, so you really get ready and I’m really grateful to have gotten a wildcard.” Dokic表示，有一部分輸掉球賽的原因，是由於自從她在2009年澳網，戲劇性地繳出亮眼的八強戰績後，大家對她的期待便日益加深，而她有點因此受影響。 " 去年我還蠻被看好的，我想這是原因之一，我身上背負著太多的壓力，所以無法在布里斯本賽、荷巴特賽、澳網發揮地很好。這回我則沒有任何壓力，而且我感覺自己的身體狀態越來越好，打球時也比較放鬆，我會表現得更好，期待2011年賽季。" 儘管老是早早出局，Dokic仍視布里斯本賽，為準備澳網熱身的好地方。 " 這裡很炎熱又潮濕，所以得把狀態調整到足以應戰的程度，同時也非常感謝賽會方給我外卡資格。" This year Dokic comes into the event with some solid match practice behind her, having made it to the final of the Australian Open Wildcard Play-off where she lost in three-sets to Melbourne teenager Olivia Rogowska. Since then she says she has spent a week working on her fitness and the past few days finetuning her frightening ground strokes with coach Glenn Schaap ahead of the main draw, which begins on Sunday. And, Dokic says, she has added more variety to her game to complement those devastating ground strokes. “We’ve worked a lot on getting a lot of balls in, finishing the point when I can and still being aggressive but at times being able to mix up my game if things are not going great. “I’ve also worked a lot on my serve and my return and I really think that’ s got a lot better, all I need now is just matches.” 今年Dokic的賽前狀態，看來似乎挺紮實的，她在澳網外卡賽晉級至決賽，才以三盤遭墨爾本年輕選手Olivia Rogowska逆轉吞敗。在那之後，她又花了一個禮拜健身，並和教練Glenn Schaap，調整底線抽球的狀態。布里斯本正賽，於本週日開打。她也坦言，為了和底線重轟型選手對抗，她在球賽裡加了更多變化。 " 我和教練努力練習，盡量讓每顆球回到對手場內，並盡我所能地去取分，還有主動攻擊，此外，也要能在落下風時隨機應變。我也在發球和接發部分下了許多功夫，我覺得似乎進步很多，現在我需要的，就只剩趕快上場參賽了。" http://tinyurl.com/29k8q77 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.39.197.233
