Hewitt's Father Hits Out at Critics

SYDNEY (Reuters) - The father of Australian tennis player Lleyton
Hewitt has accused his son's critics of jealousy and defended his
decision to accompany him on tour.
Glynn Hewitt told the Sydney Daily Telegraph on Friday that Lleyton
had been unfairly criticized after his first-round loss at Wimbledon
on Monday to Croatian Ivo Karlovic.
"It says a lot about the fickle nature and jealousy of some people,"
Hewitt Sr. said. "It's at times like these when you find out who your
true friends are.
"To Lleyton, he's lost a tennis match -- an important match at an
important tournament -- and it hurts him to lose.
"But, by the same token, this experience has enabled him to learn whose
support he can appreciate and those who are fickle."
Hewitt Sr. said he was offended by claims from 1958 Wimbledon champion
Ashley Cooper that the presence of him and his wife at Lleyton's
matches was a distraction for the 22-year-old. "How Ashley Cooper,
who I've met once and Lleyton's met once, can make a comment about
what family situation should be or should not be is beyond me,"
Hewitt Sr. said.
"We're on tour -- and not as much as most people think -- because
Lleyton wants us here as his support. He is financially independent
and mature enough not to have us here if that's what he chooses."

[路透悉尼電]澳洲網球名將休伊特(夏韋特)的父親指責批評他兒子的人是因為嫉妒,
還為他觀看兒子比賽的行為做出辯護。
格林休伊特(GlynnHewitt)周五對悉尼(雪梨)每日電訊報(SydneyDailyTelegraph)ꨊ磳隉A休伊特在周一的溫網比賽首輪即遭克羅地亞選手卡爾洛維奇(IvoKarlovic)淘
汰後,受到了不公平的批評。
「這顯出了一些人的無常本性和嫉妒之心,」老休伊特說,「到了這種時候,你
才能發現誰是真正的朋友。」
「對休伊特來說,他輸掉了一場比賽--一場重要賽事中的重要比賽,這讓他很難過。」
「不過,正是如此,這種經歷才會讓他了解誰的支持最可靠,誰又是變化無常的。」
1958年溫網冠軍庫珀(AshleyCooper)曾表示,老休伊特夫婦在場邊觀戰,干擾了休ꔊ麈S的注意力。老休伊特說,他對這種言論非常不滿。
「我和我兒子都只見過庫珀一次,他怎麼能評論我們家的事情,我實在搞不明白,」
他說道。
「我們前去觀戰--並不像大多數人想的那樣--因為休伊特希望我們給他支持。他在
經濟上已經獨立,也足夠成熟了,完全可以選擇不讓我們去觀戰。」
