French veteran Fabrice Santoro gave us his view on Sunday's enticing French Open men's singles final between Roger Federer and Robin Soderling. 下面是圣多罗大叔对冠军战的看法..看的出他很欣赏并且看好费爸.. Fabrice, do you think that Roger Federer will at last win the French Open title? 大叔..你认为费爸最终将赢得法网冠军吗?? He's never been this close. This is the biggest match of his career. If he wins on Sunday he'll have all four Grand Slams to his name. He'll also equal Pete Sampras' record of 14 Grand Slam wins. This is the first time that he's been the favourite in the final at Roland Garros. How is he going to handle the pressure? It's anybody's guess. But things are going to be even harder for Robin to handle since it's his first final and he's always lost against Roger. Nine losses in nine matches! That's a statistic to keep in mind. 这是费爸最接近法网冠军的一次了..也是他生涯最重要的比赛.. 赢了他就有四大满贯冠军..并且跟山大王一样有14冠.. 大家都在猜他将如何处理压力..但是其实SOD的压力更大.. 因为这是他第一个大满贯冠军赛..而且他过去已经输给费爸九次了 这个数据将会不停在他的脑中打转~~~ Despite his experience, could Roger really let stress get the best of him? It wouldn't be surprising. Since Rafa got eliminated everyone's been saying it's this year or never for Roger. As soon as he opens a newspaper or turns on the television he sees the big headlines: “Roger favourite to win”. That must be a heavy burden to bear. Let's not forget that two weeks ago everyone thought Nadal was unbeatable. Does Soderling’s performance here remind you of that of Dutchman Martin Verkerk in 2003? Yeah, it's sort of the same thing happening this year. Robin has appeared out of nowhere. But let's be clear, he fought for his wins. He had an incredibly tough draw. It doesn't get much tougher than Ferrer, Nadal, Davydenko and Gonzalez. He must be flying now. His confidence has been given a huge boost after such a run. But he could freeze on the big day. Sort of like Verkerk in his final (who was beaten 6-1, 6-3, 6-2 by Ferrero, ed). How do you explain such a change in Soderling's game and behaviour over the course of a few weeks? Perhaps his coach (Magnus Norman) has helped him or maybe it's just maturity. I don't know. In any case, something clicked, that's for sure. We're seeing a new Robin on the court. He's calm, relaxed and in control. Beating Nadal gives you a little extra too. Soderling is not very popular with his fellow players. What do you all think of his incredible run in this tournament? We like how he plays, but his personality is another matter. Everyone rates his game. He hasn’t got where he is by chance: his success is well-deserved. The crowd on centre court will no doubt be 100% behind Federer. Do you think this might influence the match? 中央球场的观众将百分百挺费爸..你认为这将会影响比赛吗? Yes, I think that it might help Roger. The whole of France will be behind him. It was really touching to see how the supporters cheered and encouraged him against Del Potro. The spectators here are very knowledgeable. They know that a victory for Federer would be historic. And they also know that Roger is one of the best clay-courters in the world. He's hardly ever lost to anyone except Nadal on clay. 是滴..我想这会帮助费爸..而整个法国都会挺费爸的.. 在面对DP时支持者欢呼及鼓励他..真的很令人感动.. 这里的观众都很专业的..他们知道费爸的这一胜将会是历史的一刻.. 他们也知道费爸是世界最好的红土球员之一.. 他很难输给任何人..除了在红土遇到纳豆(ㄟ...不过这也是事实啦) What tactics should he use to wrong-foot Soderling? 费爸将使用何种战术来错乱SOD的脚步? The same ones he used against Del Potro. Robin plays very well laterally, but less well at the net. He should use his drop shots, which were very effective against Del Potro. The weather conditions will also play an important role. The more humid it is, the heavier the clay will be, and the more effective Roger's drop shots will be. 如同对付DP那样吧..SOD在底线打的很好..但网前比较弱.. 费爸应该使用他的小球..上次对付DP蛮有效的.. 天气的状况将扮演重要的角色..如果天气潮湿一点..红土会比较重.. 这对费爸的小球会比较有效..弹的比较低 (今天法国的天气真的是阴雨..所以对费爸应该比较有利) Against Del Potro, Federer had some difficulty on the backhand return. Why did he play so many mid-court backhands? Because the Argentinean's serve is so fast and powerful, even his second serve. Roger didn't have time to take them on the forehand, and he wanted to force Del Potro to the net. Physically, which player has the advantage? 就身体状况而言..哪个球员比较占优势? Both players are in excellent shape, but Roger is looking particularly fit at the moment. 两人都处在极佳的状况..但费爸在这个时刻看起来特别的好.. Could a win at Roland Garros signal the beginning of the end for Roger? He is about to become a father and will have won every title possible. It must be hard to stay motivated after that… No, I don't think so at all. Its him against history and he won't be happy with just equalling Pete Sampras' record. On the contrary: if he wins here he will be even more focused, and I can see him winning Wimbledon too. -- 看来圣大叔很看好费爸..当然这也只是个人意见而已.. 大家还是先保持平常心比较健康~ 不过费爸在心理,观众,天气,状态方面都不输SOD..甚至占有优势.. 所以今天晚上应该没问题的啦!!! --
