還記得2006的時候前球后Chris Evert寫了一封公開信刊在他本人創辦的Tennis雜誌上呼籲小威專注於網球事業嗎? 以下是他今年美網決賽前的訪問他修正了他的看法 In 1999, Serena won the Open for the first of 16 Williams family Grand Slam singles titles. From the beginning of 2002 through the end of 2003, Williams won five of the six majors she entered. 1999年小威在美網贏得了目前威家16個單打大滿貫的第一個而2002-2003他贏得了六個他所參加的大滿貫的其中五個 Then she went from nearly invincible to almost invisible. Between January 2005 and December 2006, she played 44 matches, 5 fewer than she has in 2008. Williams’s world ranking was inching toward 140 when Chris Evert, an 18-time Grand Slam singles champion, gently took Williams to task in an open letter in Tennis magazine for tarnishing her legacy by not maximizing her extraordinary tennis abilities. 然後他幾乎消失得無影無蹤 2005-2006他居然只打了44場比賽比他今年目前打的還要少五場排名也跌到了140 18座大滿貫冠軍Evert寫了一封公開信呼籲他不要浪費他傑出的網球能力 “In the short term you may be happy with the various things going on in your life,” Evert wrote, “but I wonder whether 20 years from now you might reflect on your career and regret not putting 100 percent of yourself into tennis.” "短期內你或許會因為各式各樣的活動而開心但我不確定20年後當你回想你的生涯你會不會因為沒有百分之百投入於網球而感到後悔" Evert, whose singular devotion to tennis stoked her success, added, “I don’ t see how acting and designing clothes can compare with the pride of being the best tennis player in the world.” Evert這位終身奉獻給網球運動的名將補充 "我不認為演戲或設計衣服可以比的上成為世界上最好的選手的榮耀" Evert watched the final Sunday in the suite of Arlen Kantarian, the United States Tennis Association’s chief executive officer for professional tennis. Before the match, Evert conceded that in the long term the Williamses had proved her wrong. Evert在美國網球協會CEO Arlen Kantarian的房間看完了週日的決賽在賽前Evert坦承威家姐妹的表現證明了他的想法是錯的 Noting that former Nos. 1 Justine Henin, Martina Hingis and Kim Clijsters bowed out of tennis because of burnout while the Williamses have been playing as well as ever, Evert said: “Let’s put it this way. It’s opened my eyes not to be judgmental and to each his own. Whatever makes you happy. By having other interests, maybe you won’t get burned out as quickly.” 前世界第一Henin.Hingis.Clijsters都因為疲憊而從網球中退休了而威家姐妹如同過去一樣繼續的參賽 Evert說 "他們讓我開了眼界不再用主觀態度去判斷不管是什麼能使你快樂或許擁有其他的興趣能夠讓你不會這麼快的失去熱情" -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.57.95.27
