這篇寫得還有趣的XD 伊達在1989年第一次參加法網時莎芬娜才3歲:p 這場勝利也使伊達成為開放年代以來年紀第二大在法網拿下單打會內賽勝利的球員。 (年紀第一大是1985年的Virginia Wade，當時年紀比伊達大三個月) 在這場兩個多小時的比賽中伊達一直陷於苦戰，第一盤伊達一度落後0-5，第二盤也曾以2-4落後，及後連追4局扳平；至於在第三盤伊達被連破兩記發球局以1-4落後，但最後還是憑著堅忍不屈的鬥志擊敗復出以來排名最高的球員。原載於﹕http://tinyurl.com/2wl9k5f Date Krumm, 39, made her Roland Garros debut in 1989, when Safina was just three, and with the victory became the second oldest player behind Britain's Virginia Wade to win a main draw women's singles match in Paris since the game went professional. The Japanese player repeatedly called on the trainer to treat a calf problem during the match and lost the first set in 36 minutes, but Safina lost focus and Date Krumm prevailed after two hours and 34 minutes. "I am very sad for her, very happy for me. I just tried," Date Krumm said. The Kyoto-born Date Krumm, who had called it quits in 1996 before returning to the tour two years ago, looked set for a quick drubbing at the hands of last year's finalist when she went 5-0 down in the opening set. Date Krumm, making her first Roland Garros appearance since 1996, did not panic, however. She managed three games in a row before letting the first set slip. She went 4-2 down in the second set before claiming four games in a row as Safina gradually lost her composure, smashing her racket onto the ground but sparing the courtside geranium displays. Safina broke again in the third set to open a 4-1 lead as Date Krumm, her face a mask of pain, stretched at the change of ends and had the tape on her right calf tightened by the trainer. With her Russian opponent making a string of unforced errors, Date Krumm, who has reached the last four in all grand slams but the US Open, simply hung on, waiting for Safina to crack. The unthinkable eventually happened as Safina fired a forehand long on her first match point. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 122.100.240.66 ※ 編輯: erickin 來自: 122.100.240.66 (05/26 01:29)
