SAM TO LEAD AUSTRALIA AGAINST GERMANY World No.5 Sam Stosur will be joined by countrywomen Jarmila Gajdosova, Casey Dellacqua and debutante Olivia Rogowska in the upcoming Fed Cup by BNP Paribas World Group Play-off tie against Germany on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 April 2012. Australian Fed Cup Captain David Taylor said that the tie in Germany will be tough but the girls will be up for the challenge. 澳洲vs德国 世界组升降赛将於下周六21号和周日22号举行。 David说这会是场艰难的对战。 “Germany is fortunate to be enjoying a renaissance in women’s tennis,” Taylor said. “They have four top 20 players and it is the strongest team Australia could have drawn. “The venue has already sold out and the Germans, like us, have high expectations. We look forward to the challenge. David " 德国正享受着女子网球的复兴时期，他们有四位世界前20名的球员， 这也是澳大利亚迎战的最强大之劲旅，场馆票已销售一空，无论是德国队或 澳洲队，都对此抱有很高的期望，我们期待这次的挑战。" “A lot of our chances for success will be with our No.1 reaching top form. Sam has done well at this venue in the past losing in a close final to Justine Henin in 2010 and losing a very close match in the semifinals last year to Germany’s No.2 Julia Goerges. Sam is one of the best claycourt players in women’s tennis at the moment and is capable of leading our team to what would be a memorable victory. " 对我们来说，获胜的机会会在Sam身上，她过去在这个场地表现最好，2010年 在决赛输给Justine Henin，去年以很接近的比数输给德国二姐Julia Goerges， Sam是当今女子网坛最好的红土球手之一，她有能力带领团队夺得胜利。" “Ironically one of the last times our two countries met, in 1993, our Australian Fed Cup Coach, Nicole Bradtke, famously upset the then No.1 Steffi Graf for one of Australia’s finest Fed Cup victories. There is no reason why we cannot do this again. " 讽刺的是，上回我们两个队伍相遇，要回到1993年，我们的联邦杯教练 Nicole Bradtke，成功打败Steffi Graf暴冷出线，也是澳洲联邦杯史上 最漂亮的一次胜利。因此这回我们也没做不到的理由。" “Nicole and I decided to go with Olivia Rogowska, who will be making her debut for Australia, as a reward for her big ranking improvement in the past six months and her performances at the WTA level during the Australian summer. She has also proven herself on clay with a win over Russian star Maria Kirilenko at Roland Garros. " Nicole和我决定让Olivia Rogowska出赛，当作她在过去半年排名进步和澳洲 夏季赛表现的奖赏。她改进了自己在红土上的表现，在法网还赢过俄罗斯球星 Maria Kirilenko。 " “Casey has again gained selection for her continued ranking rise in 2012 and she and Sam have formed a doubles partnership recently on the WTA tour that could prove critical in this tie. “Sam and Jarmila continue to remain our top two ranked singles players.” " Casey由於2012年的排名持续攀升而获选，她和Sam在WTA巡回赛已培养出默契， 那也能在此役证明。而Sam和Jarka则仍维持澳洲一二姐的地位。" http://tinyurl.com/7zntdez --
