http://tinyurl.com/yd3ta6x Fight, not flight Friday 22 January 2010 By Eleanor Preston Justine Henin’s progress through to the fourth round of the Australian Open was not without its travails, but the former world No.1 did not win seven Grand Slam titles without knowing how to scrap her way out of trouble. Henin needed to do that against Alisa Kleybanova before eking out a 3-6 6-4 6-2 win over the young Russian. Kleybanova showed by reaching the fourth round here last year that she is a dangerous proposition on this surface. Just as it was during her first round win over Jelena Dokic, Kleybanova’s powerful hitting presented a sizeable problem for Henin to solve. There were also reminders of the fact that this is only Henin’s second tournament after a 20-month break from competitive tennis. “I'm happy I'm in the fourth round. I kind of survived a little bit today,” admitted Henin. “It’s always good to win this kind of match because I came back from nowhere. It was so difficult for me after last match. Physically, I suffered a little bit in the last two days. I wasn't feeling the energy enough to be able to compete at my level. I've been patient. Slowly but surely it was better. And she was dangerous because, I mean, when you need the rhythm, especially because physically you're not feeling well. She put a lot of pressure serving well. That wasn't the kind of game that would help me come into the match. But finally I did it. So I'm very happy that I'm still in the tournament, that I have another chance to get better in the next round. “ 才剛復出能贏得這樣的比賽是值得高興的。事實上，在上場比賽之後，我感受到自己沒有足夠的精力來恢復水準，所以我必須更有耐心點。扭頭娃是很有威脅的，尤其在身體不適更需要得到比賽的節奏時，面對的卻是許多有威力的發球。這不是很好進入狀況的比賽，但還好我做到了。所以我很開心還在比賽裡，有另一個機會可以變得更好。 That chance will come against her in-form compatriot Yanina Wickmayer, who won the title in Auckland in the first week of the year and then came through qualifying here at the Australian Open. Wickmayer is currently ranked 16 in the world, but had to qualify for the first major of the season after an anti-doping sanction was suspended only after the deadline for entries into the main draw. Henin will need to be at her best both physically and mentally. Wickmayer很優秀，所以Justine必須拿出最佳狀態 “It's special that we all in the same part of the draw,” said Henin of Wickmayer and fellow Belgian Kim Clijsters. ”It's pretty strange, pretty crazy. But it's the way the draw is. I've never played Yanina in the past. When I retired, she was just coming. But she proved with her results last year that she is in top form. Again, this week she's fighting a lot. So I know it's going to be a tough match for myself. 講的是與Wickmayer在網球的世界擦身而過，預期將會是場艱辛的比賽 “Yeah, it's a bit disappointing that we're all in the same part, of course. In another way, Belgian tennis proves that we are back, and that's a very good feeling. It's different to be in a Grand Slam. When I was in Brisbane, it was a different atmosphere. Coming here in Melbourne after one tournament, being in a Grand Slam, it's not the easiest part. But it's also almost the most exciting. So it's a big challenge to come back. And I think I love challenges. That's the way I am. I cannot live like normally. I need always to push myself and to push the limits back. “ (這人天生就是不甘平凡的) -- 胡亂翻譯:S 大家加減看囉大致上，前篇文章就是這篇的中譯 -- Every game, every match. I know that I've been consistent despite injuries and some tough times, so I've got nothing to prove, except to myself.” < Justine Henin > -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.228.247.45
