節錄Day 4 Preview跟Llodra有關的部分（提到Escude和Cyril Saulnier 的都沒什麼重要的） Written by Ronald Atkin After needing to expend considerable sweat seeing off an opponent ranked 157 in the world, Tim Henman must set his sights higher for today's second-round Centre Court match at The Championships, if not by much. Michael Llodra, from France, is another who navigates in the lower estuary of the men's game, standing as he does at 131. There will be no complaints about this, naturally, from the British number one as he prepares to wring the emotions of his loyal fans on Henman Hill, but he must beware because Llodra, in addition to fancying himself as a bit special on grass, is also the possessor of a killer shot. Let me hasten to explain: in the semi-finals of last year's Australian Open doubles, one of Llodra's backhand returns terminated the life of a passing sparrow. (XD居然舉這個例子^^b) The Llodra name comes from the Catalan region which spills over into France and it is well known in French football, since his father Michel used to play for Paris St Germain. The 6ft 3in Michael wondered for a while about following in his father's bootmarks, but decided the rewards of tennis would be greater, though the sport's mother lode has so far proved elusive. However, Llodra did get to the semi-finals of last year's grass event in Newport, the one in Rhode Island. His idol was Stefan Edberg, hence the desire to emulate his hero in the matter of serve and volley. Sadly, Michael's form this year has been undermined by the illness of his mother, Sylvaine, who died on the eve of Roland Garros, but he fought his way through the Qualifying competition here without dropping a set and saw off Spain's David Sanchez in four sets in the first round. The 10th-seeded Henman will not need to be advised to tread carefully as he bids to join the last 32 in the Gentlemen’s Championships. 唔，原來今年打不好是因為母親的緣故，希望Mika要堅強起來～ -- 〈〉。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.csie.ntu.edu.tw) ◆ From: 61.70.206.23
