S. WILLIAMS/S. Peer
3-6, 6-2, 8-6
An interview with:
SERENA WILLIAMS
THE MODERATOR: First question, please.
Q. Who writes your scripts?
谁帮你写剧本?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I'm a good writer, so I usually do all the writing.
我还蛮会写的 我都自己编
Q. Two points from defeat.
差两分就输了
SERENA WILLIAMS: I thought about it, yeah. Two points to Qantas Flight 17,
yeah.
我有想过耶 差两分就要去搭飞机了
Q. Where would you put that up there with some of your three-set wins?
你会怎麽评价这场跟哪些你的其他三盘胜利?
SERENA WILLIAMS: You know, I don't know. I've had some really incredible
three-set wins in my career. I don't know where I'll put that one. It
wouldn't be No. 1.
我不知道 我打过不少惊人的三盘胜利 我不知道要怎麽评这场 这场不会是第一
Q. How do you feel about your level of play today compared to Jankovic?
你觉得今天打出的水准跟打Jankovic时怎麽样?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I don't think I played today as strong. I think I came out a
little flat, started out a little slow. Maybe I just -- I don't know, I think
maybe I was just a little nervous. My feet, I didn't have enough blood
pressure in my feet. I just had to get going.
I had to kind of work my way in the match.
我不觉得今天打很好 刚开始有点没气 有点慢热
我想我可能有点紧张 我觉得脚的血压不够
我得在比赛中试着找到感觉
Q. Why do you think you had a flatter game today?
你觉得今天打的比较没气吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I don't know. I think I put a little pressure on myself
going into this quarterfinal. I played her before. I knew she was a tough
player. We had a tough match before, at least in the second set it was real
tough.
I knew that I had a chance. I knew that, you know, I had a big opportunity to
be in the semifinals again. I think I put a little too much pressure on
myself. I just somehow came out flat.
我不知道 我想我可能在比赛前给了自己压力 我之前打过他 我知道他不好对付
之前的比赛我打的很苦 至少第二盘很辛苦
我知道我有很好的机会再进四强 我想我可能给自己太多压力
Q. When was the last time you played a semifinal at a Slam but hadn't played
your opponent?
你上次在大满贯四强打没碰过的对手是何时?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I can't think that far back right now. I'm sure it happened.
我想应该很久了 我确定发生过 (其实没有过)
Q. Is it an odd feeling to have at this stage of the tournament?
这是一种很怪的感觉吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Well, nonetheless, we both kind of had the feeling. We both
at the end of the day are starting at 0-0 and we're going to go at it.
但我们都有这种感觉 我们都从0-0开始打
Q. Did the sickness affect you at all today?
你的病今天有没有影响到你?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I don't think so. I've had a bad cough. I'm trying to get
over that. I've pretty much gotten over the rest. I've been like going beyond
the call of duty to get rid of my sickness. It's a bad time to get sick.
不觉得 我有感冒 我试着多休息调整 我得摆脱感冒 这时机不该感冒
Q. What have you been doing to try to get over it?
你做了什麽改善症状?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I've been like doing a lot of steam, like sitting over a pot
with a towel over my head (laughter). I'm sitting there for like 10 minutes
sweating it all out. I put peppermint tea and eucalyptus, slaving over that
pot. I've been drinking a lot of water, trying to go to bed early. I think
that helped me out a lot.
蒸气治疗 大概10分钟放了薄荷在壶里 我喝很多水 试着早睡 对我很有帮助
Q. Talk about your serving in the third set, the latter part. You hit a lot
of clutch serves. Looked like you were tiring at that point in the match.
谈谈第三盘後段的发球 你发了不少凶狠的发球 看起来你那时有点累
SERENA WILLIAMS: I wasn't tiring at all. I actually got more confident in my
serve as the match got on. I just started hitting it better, started feeling
more confident about it.
我那时不累 其实随着比赛进行我对发球越来越有信心
我觉得慢慢发的更好 对发球更有信心
Q. One stroke you've always felt never departed you in the ups and downs in
the last few years?
发球是你认为从不会在比赛起伏中给你找麻烦的武器?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, I like my serve a lot. I can always depend on it.
Sometimes I have a low first-serve percentage, but at the end of the day if
I'm serving well, for the most part I'm playing well.
对啊 我喜欢我的发球 我常依赖它 有时我一发成功率很低 但通常如果我发球好 打的就好
Q. You said on the court that you're the ultimate competitor. When you got to
that space where you're two points from being defeated, do you like that
situation? Do you live for a situation like that?
你在场上说你是终极选手 你喜欢在比赛中差两分就输球吗? 你是为逆转而活的吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I hate that situation, and I'm tired of being in that
situation (laughter). I don't know why I had to be in that situation today
because I was up 4-1. All I had to do was hold. I didn't have to be there.
我讨厌这样的情况 我不喜欢在这样的情况 我不知道为什麽我第三盘4-1会被搞成这样
我所要做的就是保住 我不需要把自己弄到身处这样的情形
I just become 'sang froid' in that situation. I get so calm. I'm floating. I
feel so happy. It just relaxes me and releases. It's just a pity it doesn't
happen when I was up 4-1.
我在这样的情况比较冷静 我觉得很放松 但不好的是我没有在4-1就开始放松自己
Q. Is that calm conditions what happened you today? Your opponent had a lot
more breakpoint opportunities, but you converted nearly every one you had.
你今天比较镇定的原因是你的对手有很多破发点但你几乎都救下了吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, I think that helped me a lot. I didn't know that stat,
so that's good.
对啊 对我帮助很大 我不知道数据
Q. Are you ready to create some more carnage in the last two rounds?
你准备在接下来两轮再大屠杀吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Absolutely. Absolutely. Definitely ready to create some more
carnage hopefully (smiling).
当然 当然希望再大屠杀
Q. Do you feel pressure from being one of the few Americans that are being
successful lately in the women's division? Not one woman was seeded in the
top 16 here from the United States.
你觉得当唯一打到最後几轮的美国选手有压力吗? 没有美国选手被排到前16种子
SERENA WILLIAMS: Was there one in the top 32?
那有美国人排到前32种子吗?
Q. No.
没有
SERENA WILLIAMS: I feel absolutely no pressure. I haven't played much. I
played four tournaments I think last year. Already at half that and it's only
January this year. I'm doing a lot better.
I feel no pressure. I'm just out to play and be happy, enjoy myself more than
anything. I think when I do that, I play some of my best tennis.
我没有压力 我打不多 去年才四场 但现在是一月中了 我正做的更好
我没有压力 我是为了快乐打球 享受自己 当我这样做 我才会打出最好的表现
Q. Have you heard from anybody at home that you haven't heard from for a
while, all of a sudden the messages of good wishes?
你有收到什麽突然来的祝福吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Not really, no, which is good. Those people are probably cut
to the side. I need people that are with me the whole time, through thick and
thin, not only the good times. Most of the people I hear from, they always
hit me up, so to say, when I'm No. 1 or No. 81, yeah.
没有 我觉得很好 因为我需要的是球迷的支持 不管在我高潮还是低潮
Q. Were you puzzled at first by your forehand? Couldn't seem to hit anything
in.
你对你的正拍茫然吗? 你看起来就是不能把球打进
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, I was definitely, you know, upset because my forehand
has been the one shot that I love to hit. I've even been running around a few
balls to hit some forehands, even though I still run around to hit some
backhands.
当然 我有点不爽因为我很爱打正拍 我会闪身打正拍 我也试过闪身打反拍
I wasn't really feeling the ball right, so I'm going to go and work on that
hopefully.
我不是真的很有球感 我希望能改进一下
Q. When you're that out of rhythm, are you telling yourself to play steady or
something else?
当你找不到节奏 你会告诉自己打稳一点之类吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I'm just telling myself just to stay positive more than
anything. Like I said, I have to be my biggest fan out there. I don't want to
get down on myself.
我都告诉自己积极一点 就像我说过的 我得当自己最好的球迷 我不想妄自菲薄
Q. You were three points from. You hit that beautiful backhand cross-court
return when she was serving for the match. Did you think of that ahead of
time? Where did it come from?
你差三分输的时候 打出了一个很漂亮的反拍回发球 你有想过这样打吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I don't remember. I figured if I was going to go out, I'm
going to go out striking, as I always do, go out on top (pumping fist). I
don't remember that at all actually.
我忘了 我以为会出界 我只是想像平常那样打 不记得了
Q. Does it feel like a magic carpet ride? A lot of people didn't think you
would get this far.
你觉得这是趟奇幻之旅吗? 很多人没想到你会走这麽远
SERENA WILLIAMS: I don't think anyone thought I would get this far, except
for me and my mom.
我不认为除了我跟我妈以外有人会想我能走这麽远
Q. Isn't that a pat-on-the-back time?
你觉得这是个值得称赞的时间吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: No. I think it's pat-on-the-back time at the end of the
tournament, whether it's the semifinals or the winner. Like always, I always
believe in myself. It doesn't matter what all the commentators say or what
all the writers say. At the end of the day, first of all I usually turn the
volume down because of the negativity really is amazing. I don't read the
papers. I think that ends up helping me a lot.
不 我想比赛结束才是 不管四强或冠军 就像我说的 我一直都相信自己
不管那些球评怎麽说或记者怎麽写 我都把其他声音关掉因为那些负面评论真是可怕
我不看报纸 我想对我帮助很大
I always pat myself on the back whether I'm walking down the street or
whether I'm winning a match. Like I said, I have to be my No. 1 fan out there
because I have to be able to support myself more than anyone.
我一直都给自己掌声 不管走在街上或赢了比赛 我得做自己最大的崇拜者
因为没人能比我更能支持自己
Q. Why does that negativity exist, in your opinion?
为什麽总是有负面评论出现?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Just haters, to be honest. A lot of people don't have that
negativity all the time. I guess it's a big story to write negative things
about me as opposed to positive things sometimes. Or, hey, when you're down,
people sometimes try to kick you.
还不是那些讨厌我的人 很多人不是一直都那麽糟 我觉得可能写负面的比正面的有卖点吧
或是当你不那麽好的时候很多人都会落井下石
I think what's awesome is always being able to stay up. But, like I said, I
hear things, but I don't read that stuff because it could really affect one.
It's like people get pleasure out of talking bad. Does it make them feel good
when it makes me feel bad? I guess it does.
我觉得能一直正面是很好的 我不想去听其他事看其他东西因为那会影响我
看起来人们在损人时都很愉快 我觉得难过时他们或高兴吗? 我想会的
At the end of the day, I go home to my little dogs and my family. You know,
I'm always going to be happy.
我现在只想回去看狗狗跟家人 我一直都追求快乐
Q. Do you ever read the positive things that are written about you?
你有看过什麽你的正面消息吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I don't read anything. I don't. One time I read like -- I
think it was like '99, I read this article. It was really good. I was like,
Oh, yeah, I'm the bomb. I just got too headstrong. I was just like, you know
what, I don't want to be like some of those celebrities walking around, just
so full of themselves. I always want to be down-to-earth, want to be a person
like when you meet them, they're the same person that you think of them in
the article or something.
我不看报导的 1999我看过一篇不错的文章 哇 我那麽强 我有点自满了
我不想像那些名人一样那麽自私自大 我一直都想当个亲和的人
想当一个你看到报导上跟你印象是一样的人
I'm like, you know what, when my career is over, I've been saving a lot of
articles, I'll go back and read 'em. I don't want to be like big-headed, I
can barely get through the door. I think it works in both ways, as well.
当我退役时我可能收集很多了 那时我再看 我不想那麽骄傲
Q. You were saying you're always staying positive on court. When you make
unforced errors, occasionally it's pretty obvious you're yelling at yourself.
你说你一直都想保持积极 当你失误很多 你偶尔会吼自己
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah. I used to be worse, though. I used to smash racquets.
My racquets used to slip (smiling). They haven't slipped all tournament,
although it slipped once in practice. For the matches, it hasn't sliDm)霕恩辔笉ⓒ#(餎怂倒횇鱻S玂答솕濑i颏漓>,辍︖w^濡R悤栺鎟馉+뾔葌芇昡A脓Bz隘-垩`K裞꜁诜hVwwJ详T"go'G盦-ꚗer{蚓o,h
