半夜睡不著覺把心情哼成歌只好到Andy板翻譯殺時間 ※ 引述《chachcova (愛麗絲的兔子)》之銘言： : 這是我昨天收到的TIME雜誌裡面的文章 : 打上來跟大家分享一下~ : --- : 10 Questions. : America's top tennis player takes the court at the U.S. Open on Aug. 31. : Andy Roddick will now take your questions. : Q1. How exactly does it feel to hit a serve at 240km/h ? 碰到時速240公里的發球是什麼感覺? (算是雙關? 沒提是接球還是自己發的) : Andy: It's better hitting it than having someone hit it against you. But I'll : take a slow one that wins me the point as opposed to a faster one that : doesn't. 最好是我自己發出的而不是對手發出的我自己會希望發慢一點但是得分而不是比較快但是丟分 : Q2. You definitely had your chances of winning against Roger Federer at this : year's Wimbledon final. What do you think are the things that cost you : the match? 溫網決賽的時候你絕對有機會打敗Federer 你認為是什麼原因讓你輸球? : Andy: I don't think there are things. In the end, he put more returns on the : court than I did in the fifth set. 我不認為有什麼特別的原因比賽最後他在第五盤回發球回進的比我多 : Q3. Do you believe that you are unfortunate to play tennis in the era of : Federer and Rafael Nadal and hence not able to win as many Grand Slam as : you deseve? 你會不會覺得自己生在Federer跟Nadal有點不幸沒辦法拿到你值得的大滿貫數量? : Andy: No. You know, I feel fortune that I get to play tennis at all. There : have been great champion in every generation. Maybe not as dominant as : Roger has been, but I'm certainly not going to complain about the hand : that I've been dealt. 不會我覺得能打網球已經很幸運了每個世代都有偉大的冠軍或許不是都像Roger的主宰力這麼強但我不會因為這樣就對我所面臨的條件抱怨 : Q4. Your famous temper has mellowed. What do you attribute this change to? 你的脾氣成熟了下來你認為這該歸功於什麼? : Andy: I don't think it's rare for a 26-year-old to be more mature than they : were at 19. I think I've just had an audience for a lot of it. With : that come some good decisions, some bad decisions. I certainly like to : think I learned from majorty of them. 我覺得26歲比19歲成熟很正常我覺得有很多因素有時候我做出好的決定有時候是壞的決定我想我從中學到很多 : Q5. Why is it that American tennis seems to be unable to produce the tennis : star we used to? 為什麼現在美國網壇無法像之前一樣培養出網球明星? : Andy: Well, to me it's pretty obvious. The fact of the matter is, [tennis is] : now pulling from a worldwide talent pool. We're probably the second : biggest sport worldwide, and there's not really a country that's not : involved in tennis right now. So with the growth of the game worldwide, : the talent is going to be a lot more spread out. I think you're seeing : that on a smaller scale with basketball. It used to just be, How much : is the American team going to win? Now the sport has grown so much that : the Olympics are interesting again. 對我來說很明顯的原因在於現在網球現在成為全球化的運動或許是全球第二普及的沒有一個國家能真正壟斷網球所以因為全球化的成長天才球員也散佈各地籃球就比較沒這方面的問題之前大家都問美國能贏多少現在網球越來越成長奧運(各國的競爭)也越來越有趣了 : Q6. Who do you really idolize in the world of tennis? 你的網球偶像是誰? : Andy: I was completely lucky and spoiled growing up. I was able to catch the : tail end of John McEnroe and Jimmy Connors and lived through the golden : age of American tennis with Andre Agassi and Pete Sampras and Jim : Courier and Michael Chang. Even cooler than that, I've been able to : establish a relationship with mpst of them. I'm glad that I had those : guys to look up to. 我有幸能看見John McEnroe.Jimmy Connors的生涯末段也參與了Agassi.Sampras.Courier.張德培的美國黃金時代更酷的是我能跟他們建立起良好的關係我很榮幸能跟隨他們的腳步 : Q7. Which former tennis star would you like to go up against in their prime? 哪位網球巨星的黃金時代是你想要對上的? : Andy: It'd probably be Arthur Ashe. It's be great to take Bobby Riggs' spot : in the "battle of the sexes" too and let Billie Jean King beat up on me : a little bit. 或許是Arthur Ashe吧如果能取代Bobby Riggs的位置跟Billie Jean King打性別大戰也很酷 : Q8. I have hardly seen you play tennis without your cap. Is it your lucky : charm? 我很少看見你不帶著帽子打球這算幸運物嗎? : Andy: No. It's just habit. It's something that I used to do in Florida when I : was younger just because of the heat and sun. To be honest, now it just : feels weird without it. 只是習慣而已我年紀比較小的時候在佛州都是這樣因為那裡太陽太又很熱現在我如果不戴感覺反而會很奇怪 : Q9. Why don't you like chair umpires? 為什麼你不喜歡主審? : Andy: Because they're the ones who have a lot of the control at our matches, : and if it doesn't go my way, I'm a little annoyed. I talk to them and : they're like "You're fine away from the court, and we actually like : you. But you are evil when you're on the court." They say I'm getting a : little better. 因為他們對我們的比賽有掌控權如果他們的決定對我不利那我就會很生氣我跟他們講話的時候他們給我的感覺像是"只要你在場下一切都ok 我們其實很喜歡你但在場上你就像惡魔" 他們說我現在比較好了 : Q10. Is it really true that you lost a match to Serena Williams a long time : ago? : (這個問題又被問了XD) 你真的很久之前輸給小威過嗎? : Andy: Serena and Venus and I, we all grew up together training at the same : place in Florida, and I did lose to Serena when we were 9 or 10 years : old. She is very forthcoming with that result whenever she'd asked : about it. But she won't give me a rematch. 我跟威家姐妹從小一起長大我們在佛州的同個地方練球我們九歲十歲的時候我輸給Serena過每次你問他這件事他保證都會非常樂意談但他不讓我再跟他比一次 : --- : 這都是球迷提問的 : 我沒有把球迷的姓名打出來就是了~ : 然後我也無法翻譯囧 : 然後time.com/10questions 有這段訪問的影片 : 雜誌裡面還有一張Andy很帥的照片>///< : ps 這是September 7 , 2009 那一期 -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.57.115.113
