Maria Sharapova thrives under US Open lights https://bit.ly/2MFWuvO By Clair Maciel / Saturday, September 01, 2018 WHAT HAPPENED: Maria Sharapova’s record under the bright lights of Arthur Ashe Stadium remains untarnished after her 6-3, 6-2 defeat of Jelena Ostapenko stretched her tally to 22-0 for US Open night matches. Her win over the No. 10 seed also improves her record against Top 10 players this season to 3-4. 莎娃以6-3 6-2擊敗Ostapenko，將美網夜場勝負比推進至22-0。這場勝利將莎娃於今年對上世界前十的勝負比推進至3-4。 The last meeting between these two Grand Slam champions, a very physical three-hour and 11-minute battle, fell in Sharapova’s favor, 6-7(6), 6-4, 7-5, on the clay courts of Rome in May. And when Ostapenko’s opening service game lasted 24 points and took 12 minutes to complete, there was a sense that fans would be in for another lengthy contest. But this match unfolded much differently. 今年羅馬花了3小時11分鐘，以6-7(6) 6-4 7-5擊敗Ostapenko。 Ostapenko開局用了24分，耗時12分鐘才打完第一局。以為會是另一長時間比賽，但這場卻不同。 Known for her firepower from the baseline, Ostapenko’s usual big-hitting game failed her on Saturday night. Her shots weren’t finding the court, her first serve was unreliable, and she struck 40 unforced errors and 10 winners on the match. The majority of those, 27 to be exact, came in the first set. Her frustration mounting and temper flaring, the 2017 Roland Garros titlist quickly fell behind 5-2 before Sharapova broke her at love to clinch the first set with a finesse lob. 底線大砲風格是Ostapenko為人著稱，但這次吃鱉。多次失誤，一發也不可靠，40個UE，10個致勝。其中27個UE在第一盤所出。 Ostapenko第一盤以5-2落後的時候，莎娃於0-40，以質量高的高吊球，破發取得第一盤(6-3)。 The second set began with four consecutive breaks of serve before Sharapova righted the ship at 3-2. In the blink of an eye, the 2006 US Open champion quickly reeled off the next three games to take the match and advance into fourth round after 82 minutes. 第二盤前四局互破發球局，第五局莎娃保發(3-2)。接下來三局皆拿下，直落二(6-3 6-2)，以耗時82分鐘晉級16強。 Sharapova should certainly feel a bit more comfortable with her game after this round, as she served consistently for most of the match and looked solid from the baseline. 莎娃經此比賽後，在自己發球大多穩定且底線穩守下，對於自己的打法應覺得更加舒服穩妥。 "I just wanted to improve from the second round, I didn’t feel like I played my best tennis," Sharapova said after her win. "She’s a phenomenal player and a Grand Slam champion, you know, I can't come out here and expect it to be easy. I faced a tough opponent and came through, so I’m happy with that." 莎娃：我想要改善第二輪的狀況多一些，我覺得打的不是很好。她(Ostapenko)是大滿貫冠軍，我不能出場就期待比賽很容易取勝。對手不容易過關但我過關了，所以我很高興。 WHAT IT MEANS: Sharapova was forced to hit the ground running at the US Open, as she came in with limited match play in summer tune-ups. She went 2-2 since bowing out of the quarterfinals at Roland Garros, and an injured shoulder prevented her from playing at Cincinnati. But that hasn't affected her performance much this week, as she has yet to drop a set after three rounds of play. 在今年美網之前，莎娃暖身賽打得並不多。在法網八強後的勝敗紀錄為2-2，肩膀受傷讓她不能出戰Cincy。但這樣不影響她這週表現，前三輪是一盤未失。 That feat will now become much harder to achieve as she enters the second week of the year’s final major. Her next opponent is No. 30 Carla Suárez Navarro, a three-set winner over No. 6 Caroline Garcia. Sharapova owns a 4-1 head-to-head over the Spaniard. 莎娃已經進入美網第二週，是今年大滿貫第二次進入第二週的賽事(前一次是法網)。 16強對手是CSN，CSN以三盤勝Garcia 莎娃與CSN的H2H為4-1。 MATCH POINT: Sharapova produced a strong service game against the 21-year-old Latvian, firing six aces and winning 78 percent of her first serves. Her return game was equally as formidable, as she created 17 break point chances in the match, converting on six of them. 莎娃發球局強勢表現，6記Ace、一發得分率78%。接發表現一樣的好，17個破發點，拿下6個。【*報導寫錯應該是7/18】 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 123.193.43.130 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Sharapova/M.1535866244.A.A5C.html
