[新聞] Schwank的旅館著火事件
http://www.atptennis.com/1/en/2008news/fire.asp
因為和阿根廷人有關 所以提一下
可憐的Schwank 這禮拜在法國打挑戰賽時 旅館房間火災
行李全部付之一炬 連前幾週在羅馬挑戰賽拿到的冠軍獎金也泡湯
而且因為禮拜一是法國的國定假日 讓他沒機會去買衣服
他身邊只剩下兩支球拍,兩件T-shirt,和一雙球鞋
幸好主辦單位和一些阿根廷友人的幫助,讓他能盡快處理善後
另外是泰國雙胞胎Ratiwatana兄弟 英勇救了Lucas Arnold Ker的老婆和兒子脫困
當時Lucas正在樓下吃早餐,並不知道樓上著火
(文中的描述很詳細,能夠逃過此劫真是不幸中的大幸)
還有我現在才知道原來Lucas之前是因為癌症才那麼久沒打球 God bless him !
Schwank's Winner's Prize Money Burns in Fire
World No. 95 Eduardo Schwank gives his recollection of events:
"I was having breakfast in the hotel on Monday morning, which is situated in
the basement, when I heard about the fire.
"For much of Monday I was in a daze, thinking about how I would get my
passport, documents and laptop in order. I also lost the prize money I earned
from winning my last tournament, a Challenger event in Rome. (The winner's
prizemoney in Rome was €4,300.)
"The tournament kindly moved my first round match [against Yuri Schukin] to
Tuesday, but even then I found it hard to concentrate on my tennis.
"It was a national holiday in France on Monday, so I had no chance of buying
any clothes. All I had was two tennis racquets, one pair of tennis shoes and
two t-shirts to my name. I received a couple of polo shirts for my first match
and by Tuesday afternoon new clothes had fortunately arrived from two
Argentinean friends who arrived three days early for a holiday in Italy.
"Thankfully the tournament organizers have been very helpful and right now are
in contact with the local police to get a statement, which highlights the fact
that I lost my passport and other documents in the fire. The nearest embassy is
in Paris, so next week part of my preparation for Roland Garros will be to
arrange for new documentation."
