Saville aims high after Wimbledon win Wimbledon, London, 03 July 2011 | AAP Luke Saville bolstered the growing belief in Australia’s next batch of men’ s players by capturing the Wimbledon boys’ title with a stirring performance. The 17-year-old from country South Australia produced a comeback worthy of his idol Lleyton Hewitt to defeat Britain’s Liam Broady 2-6 6-4 6-2 on a packed court 1. It was a sweet success for Saville, having lost this year’s Australian Open junior final and reached the semi-finals of the French Open tournament. Saville has said that Bernard Tomic’s charge to the quarter-finals at the All England Club had boosted the confidence of his Australian peers. He felt his performance on Saturday showed he was on track to make an impact on the men’s tour in the coming years. Luke Saville在溫網一舉奪冠的氣勢，激勵了澳大利亞下個世代的年輕球員， 17歲的他來自南澳，效法他的偶像Lleyton Hewitt，在有大量觀眾的一號球場上演了逆轉勝，以2-6 6-4 6-2擊敗英國小將Liam Broady。他在今年澳網決賽鎩羽而歸，以及法網止步四強後，終於初嘗甜蜜的戰果。 Saville提到，Tomic闖入溫網八強，增加了身為同輩份的他很多信心，而他在星期六的表現，也證明了自己能在下個年度，給男子網壇帶來一定的衝擊。 “I feel like at the Australian (Open) and now here, that I am starting to play some unbelievable tennis again,” Saville said. “I feel if I can stay injury-free and play enough futures events and maybe challengers that my ranking will take care of itself as I am playing some great tennis. “I believe I can be a top ten player one day.” "我覺得就像在家鄉的大滿貫賽事一樣，如今來到這裡，我將再次打出一些不可思議的球賽，若我能保持健康，打足夠的未來賽或挑戰賽，當我有了好成績後，排名就能順利上昇。" There is more than a touch of Hewitt in Saville. The fellow South Australian not only has blond locks but wears his cap backwards like the former world No.1. And Saville needed to show some of Hewitt’s trademark fight after being a set and a break down in the second against rampant left-hander Broady. But in sight of becoming Britain’s first winner of the title since 1962, the left-hander started to crumble. Saville won 11 points in a row and never let him back in the contest. 在Saville能看到Hewitt的影子，同是南澳出身，擁有一頭金髮，習慣將帽子反帶，跟前球王有許多神似之處，而Saville從丟失一盤，並在第二盤率先被破發後，上演了前輩的招牌逆轉勝，力克來勢洶洶的左手持拍選手 Broady。對手背負著，成為英國繼1962年來首位冠軍的壓力，開始後力不繼，而Saville接下來連贏11分，不給他任何喘息的機會。 “It is a huge feeling looking at the past champions,” Saville said. “One of my best mates (and fellow Australian) Ben Mitchell made the final last year and his advice was to go one further than him. “I did that and he is pretty happy.” Saville hoped that Hewitt could continue playing and pass on his advice to the next wave of players. "當我回顧過往的競爭者們，我有股強烈的感覺，我最要好的夥伴與同鄉Ben Mitchell ，他在去年闖進溫網決賽，他建議我能比他多走遠一點，很開心我做到了! " Saville希望Hewitt能繼續在網壇打拼，並將豐富的征戰經驗，傳承給下個世代。 http://tinyurl.com/652w24u -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.40.103.163 ※ 編輯: singlecolor 來自: 114.40.103.163 (07/11 12:20)
