Paul-Henri Mathieu 6-4 6-3 6-3 An Interview With: Roger Federer THE MODERATOR: Questions, please. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. You told Mary Joe in the prematch interview you might have to adjust your match for the wind. Did you have to adjust your game? How brutal was the wind? 你在赛事前的访问和Mary Joe说你大概得因为风调整你的比赛。你有调整你的比赛吗？那 风有多恶劣？ ROGER FEDERER: The wind was very strong. Tough conditions to play in, especially if you're down in the score. I think you could tell Mathieu was really struggling after being down in the score. His serve, his returns, everything kind of falls into pieces. That's what the wind can do to you. It's really hard to stay positive when you're down and the wind is the way it is, like today. I kind of felt comfortable, you know, because you can also use it to your advantage and play really great tennis. You have to be careful with it. Maybe not aim at the lines as much. After, like I said, four games or so, I knew what I could do and what I couldn't do. 风非常强。很难打的情况，尤其如果你分数落後的话。我想你可以发现Mathieu落後以後 打得相当挣扎。他的发球、回发，每一项都不对劲。这是风可以对你做的。当你落後的同 时风又像今天这样吹的话，是很难保持正面的。我觉得蛮舒服的，因为你可以把它当成优 势，打出不错的网球。你必须非常小心。或许不要瞄准边线上打那麽多。就像我说的，经 过四场比赛之後，我知道什麽我可以做和我不可以做。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. How would you compare your class to win the French Open and complete a career slam with Rafa's pursuit of the US Open and a career slam? 你如何比较你赢下法网达成全满贯和Nadal对美网的追求以达成他的全满贯？ ROGER FEDERER: I guess it's somewhat similar. I won the other three Grand Slams rather quickly, as well, like he did, as well. There's a bit of similarity to that. Yeah, I mean, the only difference so far is that I lost, what, two finals before, plus a semis before; whereas he's never been in a finals here. But there's a few similarities I would think, yeah. 我想是有点类似的。我赢下其他三座大满贯比较快，和他一样。目前唯一的不同是我之前 输了两场决赛，还有一场半决赛。但他还没在这里来到决赛。但我会觉得是有一些相近之 处。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. Last night Rafa said that in his mind you're the best player in history. If he is able to complete the career slam, given his head to head with you, how young he is, what are your thoughts on his chances to eventually be the best player in history? 昨晚Nadal说他觉得你是历史上最佳的球员。如果他可以完成全满贯，有监於他跟你的对 战纪录以及他的年纪，你觉得他最後成为史上最佳的机会有多少？ ROGER FEDERER: Yeah, I mean, clearly has a chance because he's young enough. He has already so many, let's say, French Open titles to his name just alone at his age is an amazing accomplishment. Plus he's had some incredible clay court records that are going to be very hard to beat. Then again, obviously I guess he would need to win the US Open, put himself there. He's won the Olympics, done some amazing things. So he'll have a shot at it, I'm sure. 恩，当然是有机会，因为他还年轻。在这年纪他有这麽多法网就是项很令人惊奇的成就。 再加上他在红土球场上不可思议的纪录，这很难击败。然後我猜显然他需要赢下美网，让 他自己达到那。他赢了奥运，做出些很厉害的事。所以他也有机会，我很确定。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. How much better a player are you because Rafa has been such a rival for you? What are the two or three things specifically you've worked in your game to try and deal with Rafa? 因为Nadal是这样的对手，让你有多麽进步？为了和Nadal较量，哪两项或三项东西是你有 特别下功夫在你的比赛的？ ROGER FEDERER: It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is that makes you a better player. I just think maybe your work ethic, maybe you're more professional, try out different things, the mindset. Those kind of things to me stand out and a particular shot that I had to work on to beat Rafa or play against him. The thing is, you can't just start working on your game just to play Rafa, you know, because we're No. 1 and No. 2 for so long, and we are again. So we only play each other in the final. To get there, we have to beat four, five, or six other guys to get there. They play nothing like Rafa, like me for him, as well. That's why it's the wrong approach to focus on one player. 很难特别指出是什麽让你成为更好的球员。我想或许是你的职业道德，或许更专业，在心 态上尝试不同的东西。这些对我而言是很重要的。另一项我必须努力去做才能打败Nadal 或跟他对打的事，就是不能只专注在跟Nadal打的比赛，因为我们是世界第一和第二蛮久 了。我们只能在决赛遇到对方。为了达到那，我们得先击败四或五或六个对手。他们打法 跟Nadal完全不同。对他来说也是这样。所以只专注於某一个球员是错误的方法。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. But he has made you a better player? 但他让你成为更好的球员？ ROGER FEDERER: I said that multiple times, and him as well. 我说过那蛮多次的，对他来说也是这样。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. What do you think separates players who are successful in fifth sets from those who aren't? 你觉得什麽因素让球员分成在第五盘很成功和不太好两种？ ROGER FEDERER: I mean, the five set record is obviously a bit of a tricky one, you know. It depends on, I don't know, if let's say I go five sets today in the first two rounds, obviously I'll have the experience, the fitness. I'll be such a huge favorite in a fifth set. But I don't go five. So then I miss a chance to have maybe a better five set record. Early on in my career, I went more often five sets. It was 50/50 or I wasn't maybe the favorite to win in five just because of the experience, maybe lack of fitness, you know, pressure and all that. It depends on how it kind of starts. I don't think James Blake is, how you say, not a fit guy. 恩，第五盘的纪录是有点狡诈的。它取决於，这麽说好了，如果我今天在前几轮进入第五 盘，显然我有经验，有体力，我比较可能赢下第五盘。但我没有打到五盘，所以我错过能 有个比较好的五盘纪录。在我生涯早期，我打比较多的五盘大战。赢球率大概是一半，我 也不是比较可能赢的那个，因为经验的关系，或许也缺乏体能，还有所有的压力等等。这 取决於它是如何开始。我不觉得James Blake是个，你是怎麽形容的，没有体力的人。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. 4-13. Blake生涯五盘大战纪录是4-13。 ROGER FEDERER: Yeah, well, he lost his first whatever, 10 or 12. Maybe it becomes mental at that point obviously. I don't think you can just put it down to fitness. It depends on who you play, where it was. That's why that record it's great if it's positive, but what I just like about five sets, it gave me answers if I was fit enough or not and if I had still some stuff to work on. For a very long time, I hardly ever went five until the match where I lost against Safin 9-7 in the fifth. I had match point in the fourth. I played great, but it was good again for me to see, you know, can I last for that long period of time, because practice is not the same like a match. 是阿，他输了前十或十二场。或许在那时刻是心理因素了。我觉得不能说只是跟体能有关 。这取决於你的对手是谁、在哪打球。这是为何如果纪录是好的这很棒，但我觉得五盘比 赛的意义在於，它给我资讯我是否体能上适合，或看看我还有什麽需要再加强的。有很长 一段时间，我几乎没有打过五盘比赛，直到我输了那场跟Safin的比赛，第五盘9-7。我在 第四盘有赛末点，我打得不错，但对我来说，可以看看我是否能持续保持那麽长的一段时 间也是很好的，因为练习并不等同於比赛。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. Changing subjects. As you are a great fan of soccer, I would like to ask you about your thoughts about the last World Cup, and specifically if you saw any games of Uruguay and have you ever met Diego Forlan? 换个话题吧。你也是个足球迷，想问问你有关世界杯的看法，尤其你是否有看过任何乌拉 圭的比赛，有见过Forlan吗？ ROGER FEDERER: I think I've met him during the Madrid tournament briefly walking by. I don't remember what we were talking about. But I remember shaking his hand. I think he's quite a big fan of tennis because he's been to the tournament multiple times when it was indoors and also now since it's been outdoors. I saw him play a little bit, but honestly I didn't see any World Cup from the quarterfinal on. I missed that part. Obviously, I was cheering for Switzerland, South Africa, just hoping for a good World Cup. I thought it was a good one. The best team won. Spain played fantastic. I still think it was a very successful World Cup for many teams. 我想我曾在马德里名人赛遇见他，短暂地经过。我不记得我们谈什麽了。但我记得有握手 。我想他也是个大网球迷，因为他曾去那赛事好几次。我有看他踢球一点点，但说实在从 QF後我就没看任何世界杯的比赛了。我错过那部分。我是为瑞士和南非加油，希望他们有 个好的世界杯。我觉得这是不错的世界杯，最好的球队赢了。西班牙打得漂亮。我仍觉得 对很多队而言这是个非常成功的世界杯。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. You might play Ferrero in the next round. How much do you think you influenced his career in the sense when you guys are from the same generation, he used to be a No. 1, then he started losing lots of matches, not fighting for the big titles. How much do you think you affected him? 下一轮你或许会遇到Ferrero。你们算是同个世代的，你觉得你如何影响他的生涯？他从 前是世界第一，之後开始输掉很多比赛，不再竞争大满贯。你觉得你如何影响他？ ROGER FEDERER: I don't think I played him the amount of times I've played against Roddick or Rafa. I don't know how many times I've played him, but I think a guess is maybe like 10. But I don't think I played him 20, you know. I never played him in a Grand Slam final. So I don't think, you know, I had a big effect on him playing better or worse really. I think we actually pushed each other up, if we did anything. I always thought he was a wonderful player. Had some big matches against him in the past. Australian Open semifinal, I had to beat him to get world No. 1 the following Monday. Then I went on to win the Australian Open in '04 against Safin in the final. I mean, he was the best player on clay for a while there. It's hard to dominate the clay court season every single year. It's obviously if you're not going to win the majority of the clay court tournaments, at the French Open your ranking will slip maybe from 3 to 8, and then from 8 it can slip quickly from 8 to 15. I think that's what happened to him. I think he also had some injuries. It's good to see him playing well again. We still get along well. We practice once in a while. I'd love to play against him here, even though Melzer is a good friend of mine, too. I played him in Wimbledon, so we'll see. 我不觉得我跟他打的次数有跟Roddick和Nadal这麽多。我不知道我跟他打过几次，我猜大 概有十次吧，但没到二十次。我从没跟他在大满贯决赛打过。所以我不觉得我对他有很大 的影响，让他打得更好或更糟。如果我们有做任何事，我想是互相让对方向上。我总是觉 得他是个很好的选手。过去有跟他打过一些大比赛。澳网准决赛，我必须击败他才能在隔 个礼拜一达到世界第一，然後在2004年决赛和Safin相遇。他之前是红土上最佳的球员。 很难每年总是主宰红土赛季。如果没赢下红土主要的赛事，法网後你的排名就会下跌，愈 跌愈深。我想这就是发生在他身上的事。我想他也有些病痛。能再见到他打得不错是好事 。我们仍处得不错，偶尔会一起练球。我很高兴能在这跟他对打，即使Melzer也是我的好 朋友。我和他在温布顿打过，就让我们拭目以待。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. Those conditions, how successful could you be hitting high, loopy, soft balls? 你打high, loopy, soft ball(又高又远的软球?)有多成功？ ROGER FEDERER: That's the thing. If you just played soft into the court, as well, it's kind of tricky then to measure the ball well and let the other guy dictate play. You just go with the pace of the other guy. It's not so easy to create pace when it's so windy. So sometimes, you know, you try to just hit a slow ball in there, you know, and see what happens. It's uncomfortable for the opponent, but it's just not the way to go in men's tennis. Guys have too much power. The thing is, like once the other guy figures you out, how you're playing, if you're just really pushing the ball in play, it's so hard from going, playing like that to playing offensive again. It's almost like a thing of impossibility. You have to hit the ball otherwise. It's not a good thing. 如果你只是打个软软的球过去，有点难预测球路，会让你的对手主宰。你会被她的节奏牵 着走。在风这麽大的情况下要创造节奏是不容易的。所以有时候只是试着打慢一点的球， 看看结果如何。这对对手来说不太舒服，但并不是男网的方式。男人有太多的力量。重要 的是如果被对方看穿你的把戏、你的打球方式，如果你只是把球推回去而已，就很难再打 得有攻击性。这几乎是不可能的。不然你必须打到球。这不是件好事。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. I wanted to ask you what you think of the new, slimmer Mardy Fish? Still remains to be seen how he'll do here. He says he feels like a completely different player now. 想问问你对於焕然一新、瘦身有成的Fish的看法？仍要看看他在此的表现。他说他觉得自 己现在好像是个截然不同的球员了。 ROGER FEDERER: Yeah, I mean, his talent was never questioned, was it? I played him back in maybe was it 2003, 2004, when I won my first couple Wimbledons. He was the only guy to take a set off me. I always thought he was an incredibly good player, regardless of his weight, to be honest. I think it's great to show maybe other players, too, to see what's possible at a later stage in your career, if you come up with some new ideas. You know, let's change it up and see what happens. I think that's what he's doing. That the results follow, it's not always a guarantee. But with him now, it's happened. Obviously this is the big stage for him now, the US Open. So the next 45 minutes will be huge for him. You know, this is what it's about for him now. This is where it's really going to pay off for him, not in Washington or something. It's great to see him playing well, doing well. He's a nice guy. He's always been talented, so we knew that. 他的才能是毫无疑问的，不是吗？在2003或2004年我和他对打过，当我赢下我第一座温布 顿时。他是唯一从我手中拿走一盘的人。老实说不论他的体重多少，我总觉得他是个很棒 的选手。如果有更多更新的想法，在职业生涯後期也能有很多不同的发展。我想对其他选 手来说，可以看到这也是很好的。就让我们试着改变，看看会发生什麽。我想这是他正在 做的。结果随之而来，不可能永远是正面的保证。但现在有他，显然现在美网对他来说是 个重大的时刻。接下来的45分钟也是。这是他现在所投入的。这里正是要回报他所有努力 的地方，不是在华盛顿或其他地方。看到他打出好球是很棒的。他是个很好的家伙。他总 是很有才能，所以我们知道那的。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. Did you see Francesca Schiavone's shot between the legs? 你有看到Schiavone那个胯下击球吗？ ROGER FEDERER: I think I did see it. I'm not sure. 我想有。我不是很确定。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q. Is it more difficult for a girl, in your opinion, to do it? 你觉得女生打那种球会比较困难吗？ ROGER FEDERER: Well, yeah, because they never come to the net, so they'll never be lobbed. No, I've seen her hit some very good shots in the past already, you know. She has a great ability to come up with some different kind of variation for a woman's player, which is nice to see. I think she played incredible at the French Open. She is not scared of trying out a few things, you know. That's why I kind of like to watch her. 是阿，因为她们从不上网，所以也不会被打吊高球。在过去我已经有看过她打出一些非常 好的球。她有很好的能力去打出一些对女子球员来说比较有变化不同的球，这很好。我想 她在法网打得很好。她不畏惧尝试新东西。这是为什麽我有点儿喜欢看她打球。 --
