[訪問] Clijsters四強賽後訪談-1
K. CLIJSTERS/P. Schnyder
6-2, 7-6
JOHN DOLAN: Questions in English for Kim, please.
Q. Have you been traded in for a younger model, John?
JOHN DOLAN: We like to start them young.
Q. Who is he?
KIM CLIJSTERS: Who are you? What's your name?
CONNOR McLEOD: Connor.
JOHN DOLAN: Do you have a last name?
KIM CLIJSTERS: McLeod.
Q. What's your media affiliation?
JOHN DOLAN: Kim, who is he?
KIM CLIJSTERS: He's the son of Andrew and Rachel McLeod, Adelaide Crows
football player. They came over from Adelaide, from the plane.
All right. Let's go.
Q. Did you feel like the ankle bothered you when you played that today?
KIM CLIJSTERS: No, I felt comfortable. I knew yesterday that it was gonna be a
little bit, you know, sore, you know, going for it. But doctors
have reassured me that I'm not going to make it any worse by
playing.
That's just -- I have to keep my mind off it. That was -- when I
hurt it again in my previous match, that was what I was
struggling -- it got me a little bit worried again, thinking
about it too much and trying to be careful running around.
Today I told myself, "Don't think about it, try not to worry
about things. Even if you feel a little bit when you're moving
around and stuff, just keep going."
And I did. It felt okay.
Q. What do you mean you can't hurt it more; you hurt it the other day?
KIM CLIJSTERS: Yeah, but I'm not gonna make it worse. The bone is not gonna
chip off or it's not gonna move or anything. That's the only
thing. I'm not going to make the injury worse. The swelling
can get worse and I'll get pain. I'll just have to get through
that pain while I'm playing.
Q. Does it hurt at the moment?
KIM CLIJSTERS: It pinches sometimes when I'm running around. But when you're
playing and stuff, you know, everything goes so quickly that
you feel a little bit, but you have to run to the other side
of the court and it's -- you know, you just try not to think
about it.
And when I hurt it a little bit more in my previous match, I was
probably thinking about it too much. That's what I tried to do
today.
Q. Have the doctors given you any idea of what you might have to do after the
final is over to heal it?>
KIM CLIJSTERS: Yeah, I don't know if -- you know, I'm definitely gonna try to
keep playing with the tape and make sure the swelling goes down
and rest a couple of days when I go back home. That's probably
the main thing. And then I don't know. Just see if that keeps
coming back, if I keep having that little problem, then maybe
eventually I'll have to have some surgery and have that little
piece of bone taken out.
But, you know, that's definitely not something I want to think
about at the moment. That's something that I'll think about and
see how -- if it comes back and if it keeps coming back, then I
probably don't have another choice. But I'll definitely try to
go without the surgery.
Q. Are you taking anything for it at the moment?
KIM CLIJSTERS: I've, you know, some antiinflammatories I've been taking. But
I've been putting a lot of Voltaren gel overnight and stuff,
just to have the local antiinflammatories over there. But
nothing special.
Q. No painkillers?
KIM CLIJSTERS: No, no.
Q. What's the plan for tomorrow then?
KIM CLIJSTERS: Tomorrow, the same as I've been doing all, you know, these whole
two weeks, you know. Make sure that I have my preparation the
same, you know, go and have treatment and make sure my foot
feels okay and, you know, just little things. Just hit a few
balls, not too much. I wanted to be rested enough. I have the
afternoon off and have a massage and that's it.
Q. It will be lighter duty?
KIM CLIJSTERS: Yeah. I don't think during a tournament you're going to hit a
lot of balls and work out and stuff. I haven't been doing that
these whole two weeks. You just have to make sure you get a
little bit of a sweat in and you feel like you've done something.
You don't want to sit in your room all day and don't do anything.
I'll just come out to the courts, hit a few balls, have a few
good runs and stuff, but nothing too extreme.
Q. You've lost the last two Grand Slam finals to Justine. How do you feel about
this one? How would you rate your chances?
KIM CLIJSTERS: Well, you know, I -- I definitely wouldn't have rated my chances
very high getting into the tournament. But I definitely feel
like I'm hitting the ball good and I feel good, you know. Of
course, there's a few things that I would have liked to, you
know -- it hasn't been my perfect preparation. Probably in the
two previous Grand Slams I probably would have liked to play a
little bit less, you know, before I got to -- with all the
doubles and everything, I was a little bit exhausted at end
of those two Slams. And here, I would have -- probably would
have liked to have played a few more getting into the
tournament.
But I'm feeling good. I definitely don't feel like I'm tired or
anything. I'm just really looking forward to go out there. I
wish it was tomorrow in a way, as well.
