SAM TO LEAD AUSTRALIA AGAINST GERMANY World No.5 Sam Stosur will be joined by countrywomen Jarmila Gajdosova, Casey Dellacqua and debutante Olivia Rogowska in the upcoming Fed Cup by BNP Paribas World Group Play-off tie against Germany on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 April 2012. Australian Fed Cup Captain David Taylor said that the tie in Germany will be tough but the girls will be up for the challenge. 澳洲vs德國世界組升降賽將於下周六21號和周日22號舉行。 David說這會是場艱難的對戰。 “Germany is fortunate to be enjoying a renaissance in women’s tennis,” Taylor said. “They have four top 20 players and it is the strongest team Australia could have drawn. “The venue has already sold out and the Germans, like us, have high expectations. We look forward to the challenge. David " 德國正享受著女子網球的復興時期，他們有四位世界前20名的球員，這也是澳大利亞迎戰的最強大之勁旅，場館票已銷售一空，無論是德國隊或澳洲隊，都對此抱有很高的期望，我們期待這次的挑戰。" “A lot of our chances for success will be with our No.1 reaching top form. Sam has done well at this venue in the past losing in a close final to Justine Henin in 2010 and losing a very close match in the semifinals last year to Germany’s No.2 Julia Goerges. Sam is one of the best claycourt players in women’s tennis at the moment and is capable of leading our team to what would be a memorable victory. " 對我們來說，獲勝的機會會在Sam身上，她過去在這個場地表現最好，2010年在決賽輸給Justine Henin，去年以很接近的比數輸給德國二姐Julia Goerges， Sam是當今女子網壇最好的紅土球手之一，她有能力帶領團隊奪得勝利。" “Ironically one of the last times our two countries met, in 1993, our Australian Fed Cup Coach, Nicole Bradtke, famously upset the then No.1 Steffi Graf for one of Australia’s finest Fed Cup victories. There is no reason why we cannot do this again. " 諷刺的是，上回我們兩個隊伍相遇，要回到1993年，我們的聯邦杯教練 Nicole Bradtke，成功打敗Steffi Graf暴冷出線，也是澳洲聯邦杯史上最漂亮的一次勝利。因此這回我們也沒做不到的理由。" “Nicole and I decided to go with Olivia Rogowska, who will be making her debut for Australia, as a reward for her big ranking improvement in the past six months and her performances at the WTA level during the Australian summer. She has also proven herself on clay with a win over Russian star Maria Kirilenko at Roland Garros. " Nicole和我決定讓Olivia Rogowska出賽，當作她在過去半年排名進步和澳洲夏季賽表現的獎賞。她改進了自己在紅土上的表現，在法網還贏過俄羅斯球星 Maria Kirilenko。 " “Casey has again gained selection for her continued ranking rise in 2012 and she and Sam have formed a doubles partnership recently on the WTA tour that could prove critical in this tie. “Sam and Jarmila continue to remain our top two ranked singles players.” " Casey由於2012年的排名持續攀升而獲選，她和Sam在WTA巡迴賽已培養出默契，那也能在此役證明。而Sam和Jarka則仍維持澳洲一二姐的地位。" http://tinyurl.com/7zntdez -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.40.100.16
