原文：http://0rz.tw/583WY ，以下也是簡略翻一下，很短的問答都不翻囉。 A POST-MATCH INTERVIEW WITH: Serena Williams defeats Maria Sharapova Quarterfinals 7-5, 4-6, 6-1 Q. Maria, just the match overall and then that third set in particular. MARIA SHARAPOVA: Well, I thought the first two sets were pretty good quality of tennis. You know,there were a few key points in the match which I think could have obviously made the score line a little bit different and a couple in the beginning, in the middle of the first set where I had more chances to make it a couple of breaks, didn't take those and obviously the chance in the end of the first set, when you don't take your chances -- that's what I was sort of talking about yesterday. When you don't take your chances against a player like her, you know, it's difficult to keep that intensity up for, you know, three sets. And in the third set, I just, you know, I gave it all I had in the first two, and in the third I think I ran a little bit short. Q. 整體感覺第三盤差比較多。 M: 前兩盤的品質很不錯。有些關鍵分可能左右戰局，第一盤原本有兩度破發機會，我也沒掌握。碰到她這樣的對手，沒把握好機會，很難保持那種強度長達三盤。第三盤是有些力盡了。 Q. You were talking about taking chances, and yesterday you predicted it would be kind of a match of big shots. MARIA SHARAPOVA: Uh-huh. Q. Would you have preferred to take any more chances or big shots or do you think maybe you took too many or are you pretty satisfied with the strategy there? MARIA SHARAPOVA: I mean, look, if a few points went my way, like I said, the score line could have been different and we wouldn't be talking about taking those chances because I would have taken them,but obviously you can't turn back time, and you know, I can only take the positives out of this match. I think going into this match, considering the success she's had on clay court, she's obviously the favorite today, and you know what, if I did take that set point or if I did take a couple of those important points and I would have won the second, the match would have been over in two. Instead I lost in three sets, so you know, that's the way it goes. That's the beauty of tennis. Q. 想把握更多機會、或者覺得太躁進？還是覺得今天的策略得宜？ M: 假使有幾個關鍵分由我拿下，那戰局會有所不同，我們就不用在這裡談把握機會的問題了。但現在不能時光回溯，我只能從中獲取正面訊息。考量到她在紅土上的戰績，她顯然是今天的熱門。如果能把握機會，可能是直落二贏，但相對的我今天三盤輸球，事情就是會這樣，但這就是網球的美麗之處。 Q. Serena said that you're playing great tennis on clay. Can you at least leave here knowing that your game's improving on clay? MARIA SHARAPOVA: Absolutely. I've been saying it for a while now. I think with every year I'm improving. One is because I'm physically stronger with every year. My body is adjusting to the clay faster. I'm moving on it a lot better than I used to, and that takes time. It's not just -- I'm not saying I'm perfect at it. There's still a lot of room for improvement and maybe that's not going to happen this year, but hopefully the work that you put in throughout the year, not just on the clay courts, and experience as well will help you for future years. And at the end of the day, I mean when you win or lose a match, you want to take the learning experience from it, and I think from today's match I will only take the positives. Q. 小威表示，妳現在在紅土上打很好。現在能至少說妳在紅土上是有進步的嗎？ M: 當然。我覺得每年都在進步。其一是我逐年強壯，身體能更快適應紅土，也比以前的移動好多了，這也需要時間。但還大有進步空間，就算不是今年有成效，也希望這些努力之後能奏效，不僅在紅土場上，經驗也是。不管贏或輸，都會想從中汲取經驗，今天的比賽，我也只會收穫正面的訊息。 Q. Would you still consider this a worthwhile trip to Charleston or was it too short? MARIA SHARAPOVA: No. It's fine. You know, like I said, if you don't take your chances in tennis, you can outa here really fast, so you know, it's fine. I can at least celebrate my birthday like a normal human. Q. 會覺得來這邊是值得的嗎？ M: 滿好的啦。像我說過的，沒把握機會就可能很快出局，所以很好啦。至少我現在可以像平常人一樣慶祝生日了。 Q. How are you going to celebrate it? MARIA SHARAPOVA: I'm going to be with my friends and my parents tomorrow. Q. Staying in town? MARIA SHARAPOVA: No, no. No. Q. After that first set went very long, did you kind of have to, I guess, readjust your strategy, since you both kind of expended so much energy in that first set. Did you find yourself not being so aggressive in the second set or did it not matter after that? MARIA SHARAPOVA: No. I thought I was doing a lot of the right things in the first set. I just came a little bit short in the end. And like I said, it was just a matter of a couple of balls here and there, and in the second set I just stayed aggressive. Maybe I served a little bit better, had a higher percentage of first serves in. You know, I didn't give her too many looks on that second serve, and against a top player like her you don't want to give her that confidence that she's going to be able to swing away on those second serves. Yeah. Q. 第一盤那麼漫長之後，妳會覺得自己沒那麼有勁嗎，還是其實也不重要？ M: 第一盤滿多方面都做對了，只是末段有點糟。第二盤就是保持侵略性。可能發球好了點，進球率較高，才不會讓她有太多機會攻擊二發。 Q. In the third set when she went on that run and she started screaming and cheering and getting emotional, how tough is it for you on the opposite side? Is it possible to kind of come back when she really had the emotions going there in the third set? MARIA SHARAPOVA: No, because I have my emotions going as well. Yeah, we're both pretty expressive on the court. I think that's what makes it so entertaining is we never let down. We keep fighting and we keep trying, and I mean that's why our matches are so entertaining at times. But no, I just try to take care of my side of the net and not worry about what's going on across the net or around me and so forth. Q. 她第三盤開始情緒張力十足地叫、慶賀著，妳會因此覺得格外難應付嗎？當她進入這個情緒後，還可能反撲嗎？ M: 不會，因為我也會釋放情緒。我們在場上都情緒豐富。娛樂效果十足之處就是這樣，我們會一直拼一直試，那是我們之間的比賽有時很具娛樂效果的原因。但我只照顧好自己這邊，而非去擔心前後左右發生什麼事。 Q. Serena commented on how well you're sliding. How important is that on clay and how are you developing that? MARIA SHARAPOVA: You know, I don't think I'm ever going to be a clay court specialist, you know. I don't know how to term it, but like I said, I think the more you play on it, the more preparation you can -- the more matches you get to play and be in match situations, the better you're going to get, the more comfortable you're going to feel on court. You can do as many foot work drills or sliding or training or gym workout, leg strength, whatever you want to do, but it's never going to be as effective as when you go out on court in front of a crowd and compete against an opponent. So I think the matches that I've had in Amelia and here are definitely going to help me towards the European clay. Q. 小威說妳現在滑步很棒，在紅土上這有多重要？妳怎麼練的？ M: 我想我不會變成紅土型的球員，但就像我說過的，打越多、準備越多，更適應比賽，就會越進步，越適應球場的感覺。可以做很多腿部練習、練滑步、去健身房增強強度之類的，但不會有上場參賽來的有效。所以我想在博士倫跟這裡的比賽，會幫助我迎向歐洲的紅土賽場。 Q. Maria, do you think that the kind of fight you had, especially in the first set, you can take some positive aspect for the following weeks, especially for the French? MARIA SHARAPOVA: Yeah. Absolutely. I mean even though I would have loved to win today, I think most importantly is if I'm in the same situation in a Grand Slam, you know, you learn from today and you learn what you could have done a little bit differently, and hopefully you change that to the Grand Slam. Like I said, this is a complete learning experience. At the end of the day, win or lose, all these matches and all these tournaments is basically a buildup. You work your way towards the big ones, which are the Grand Slams. So you hope, and when you are in the same position next time in a big one, you take your chances. Q. 像是第一盤那樣的拼搏，能夠為之後的比賽，尤其是法網，帶來什麼正面訊息？ M: 當然。雖然我今天還是想贏，但最重要的是，假使我在大滿貫碰上相同的處境，就希望從今天借鏡，希望能在大滿貫時改變。像我說過的，這是個完全學習的經驗。最終，不管贏或輸，這些比賽都是一個發展過程，努力邁向像大滿貫這樣的重要目標。希望下次在大賽碰到相同處境時，能把握自己的機會。 Q. From your perspective do you think Serena's playing well enough to take it all? MARIA SHARAPOVA: I'm sure, yeah. END OF INTERVIEW -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.133.99.37
