节录几个问题 Q. Serena, you worked your way through this very well after the rain delay, but had there been no rain delay, would it have been more difficult to work your way through this match? 下雨过後打的很好 如果没有下雨的话会比较难进入状况吗? SERENA WILLIAMS: No, not at all. I was down, I think, 5-3 or 5-2, and I was already on my way back. So, no, there was no chance that I wouldn't have at least gone three sets. There was no chance at all. 不 我觉得再5-3或5-2落後的时候我就觉得状态要回来了 所以我一定可以至少打到第三盘 Q. Serena, when did you start feeling it, like start feeling you were on your game again and how did it happen? 什麽时候开始觉得打的很好? 这是怎麽发生的? SERENA WILLIAMS: I started feeling better in this third set. I mean, I was just sliding better and I was just feeling like I felt her game better. And I just was -- at that point, I was getting a lot of balls back, and I felt more like a clay courter. I was just sliding and sliding and it felt good. 我从第三盘开始裁决的比较好 滑步比较好 也比较适应他的打法 那时候我能回更多球了 我觉得自己更像个红土型选手了 我滑步感觉不错 Q. Did you feel that great in the second as you started to turn it there? 第二盘呢的感觉没有那麽棒吗? SERENA WILLIAMS: I felt better, but not the way I felt in the third. In the third, I felt like this is a clay court game that I know to play. 我觉得比第一盘好 但是第三盘感觉更好 第三盘我能掌握到我该打的红土比赛 Q. Serena, it also seemed like you made the decision to play patiently until you got your rhythm, true? 看起来你下定决心打的更有耐心直到找到节奏 SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, I was playing more patient and, you know, I was doing what I've been practicing. I guess it just didn't work out in the first set. 是啊 就像训练的时候一样 我想第一盘我没有做的像那样 Q. Serena, was that the toughest conditions you can have here on the clay in Roland Garros? 在法网最困难的条件是什麽? SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, I think they're pretty tough conditions. I think the rain really slows the court down, and so it just plays a lot slower. And, you know, she was obviously able to get more balls back because my balls weren't skidding as well as they could have. 嗯 条件不太好 下雨让场地变慢 所以比赛也很慢 因为我的球没有那麽有杀伤力 所以他可以把球回很多回来 Q. And when the rain started and when you came back to the court, were you afraid of getting injured because it was too slippery? 开始下雨跟回到场上的时候你会害怕因为场地太湿所以受伤吗? SERENA WILLIAMS: Well, when the rain first started it was really slick on the lines, and so I was, you know, a little hesitant about going on. But the umpire thought I should continue to play. And coming back, it wasn't as rainy as it was before, so... 我觉得第一盘刚下雨的时候我觉得线上很滑 但主审觉得应该要继续打 至於刚回来的话 那时并不像下雨的时候 所以... Q. Serena, there's only ten American women in the singles draw and it's pretty low. So what do you account for that low count? 只有10个美国球员在单打签\表 蛮少的 有什麽感觉 SERENA WILLIAMS: I think 10 is a lot maybe, but maybe for the size of our country, maybe it's not. I believe it's because, you know, I think the main factor is that there's hardly any tournaments in the United States. You have Miami and Indian Wells and a few L.A. tournaments. And back in the day when my dad was inspired, who put me in tennis was because he had saw someone playing tennis and it was in the United States. And we had tournaments in D.C., I mean, which is a huge city, Atlanta. I mean there was tournaments everywhere, Houston. I remember Virginia Slims had just tournaments in Chicago and there were so many different cities there just aren't any tournaments any more. There's only a handful of tournaments in the United States. So I think that is why there's only ten players in the draw. 我想10个其实蛮多了 但或许以美国来说不太多 我想是因为美国比赛并不多 只有Miami.Indian Wells跟几个洛杉矶的比赛 我爸爸开始被网球吸引的时候那时我们看到别人在美国打球 在华盛顿.亚特兰大.休斯顿.芝加哥都有比赛 但是现在在美国很少了 我想那是为什麽我们现在只有10个选手在签表 Q. Do you see any of the young ones like Jamea Jackson or Vania King or Shenay Perry making any noise here? 你有看过其他小将们像Jamea.Vania.Shenay那样引人注目吗? SERENA WILLIAMS: Vania King is a great fighter. I play with her on Fed Cup and, you know, I think she has great potential to do really well. Jamea Jackson is one of my favorites; she's a fighter. She's small, but she's very feisty. Shenay Perry has a different kind of game, more of a tech style, and she does well on the grass and faster surfaces. Vania是个不错的斗士 我跟他一起打过Fed Cup 他真的打的很好 Jamea是我喜欢的球员之一 他也是个斗士 他很小 但是他非常迅速 Shenay有不同的打法 我想他在草地或快速球场会表现很好 Q. Was there any point today, perhaps down 5-2 or down a set in the break, that you thought, "I could be in trouble here", cross your mind? 今天你有没有想过可能会有大麻烦? 在2-5落後或第二盘率先被破的时候? SERENA WILLIAMS: I just thought -- third set, you know, I thought when I was down 5-2, "I have to come back and win this set." And I honestly think I should have won the first set 7-5. I kind of let my guard down at 5-all. I pretty much should have won that set. I was out there extra, because I didn't -- obviously I didn't, but, yeah. 痾 我只是想要打第三盘 我2-5落後的时候我想我一定要逆转 拿下第一盘 我觉得我第一盘应该要7-5拿下的 我5-5的时候又熄火了 不然我应该要拿下来的 我绝对没有想过我会有大麻烦 Q. Serena, we tend to focus on championships, but your 30-0 in first rounds of grand slams. 你在大满贯第一轮的战绩是30-0 SERENA WILLIAMS: I know. 我知道 Q. How much of an accomplishment is that? Most players get bitten at least once in their career. 这是多大的成就? 大部份选手至少都有一次在第一轮就被打败 SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah. 是啊 Q. How hard is that? How hard? 多难 有多难? SERENA WILLIAMS: I have to knock on wood because I know I've never lost. Knock on wood because I know I've never lost in the first round. It's gonna happen maybe one day, but I'm really proud of that record. I hold hard on it, you know. I've never gone down the first round. So it's like, Whoo, I can breathe now. It's like my goal in life is to stay not losing in the first round, so, of a Grand Slam. 我知道我没有在第一轮输过 或许有一天会 但我很骄傲有这样的纪录 我很认真看待这个纪录 我的目标就是永远都不要在大满贯第一轮输球 Q. Serena, do you remember 1998 coming here as a 16-year-old in the Arantxa match, and can you just -- I know -- but just talk a little bit about that in your maturation. 你还记得98年你打Sanchez-Vicario的比赛吗? SERENA WILLIAMS: I swear that is probably the most disappointing match to date of my career. I really felt I should have won that match. And to this day, I think if I could rewind time, I would rewind time to 1998 French Open. I think I was up -- I don't remember what I was up. All I know is I should have served and volleyed because I had this unbelievable serve. And all I had to do was take the volley and put it away and I could have won. 我发誓那可能是我最失望的一场比赛 我真的觉得我应该赢 如果能时空倒转我很愿意回到98法网 我原本领先的 我忘了领先多少了 (应该是5-3第二盘) 我现在知道我应该要发球上网 因为我发球很好 我应该做的就是截击 那样我当时应该可以赢 She was a veteran and I was young and I was so upset. But you know, what can I do. I thought about that today. I thought, "Okay, I'm up. That doesn't mean anything because I was up on this very court against Sanchez and she came back." So maybe it was good that I always can remember that. 他那时是老手了 而我是新人 我很沮丧 我想 "我领先了 但是後来他逆转了" 我想能记得这场比赛对我是好事 Q. A French commentator said live on TV, by the end of the first set, beginning of the second set that you were almost crying? 球评说第一盘结束到第二盘你看起来快哭了? SERENA WILLIAMS: No, no. I just think I make these faces that I have to stop making, because I hate when I watch film and I hate when I see those faces. I'm the baby. I was the youngest. I was always treated the best. I'm a whiner, a complainer. It doesn't help. 痾 没有 我只是觉得我应该停止做这些表情 因为我看电影的时候我讨厌这种脸 我是个孩子 我是最小的 我永远都被宠爱 我是个抱怨者--但其实对事情并没有帮助 Q. With the long rain delay, there's really no way of knowing whether or not you're going to get to -- get back on the court today. Is there anything you do to stave off boredom? 这麽常的下雨时间 你不知道还会不会需要上场 你在休息室有什麽休闲吗? SERENA WILLIAMS: I have a book. I brought it with me. And usually if I bring a book, they're short rain delays. It's how the cookie crumbles. If I don't have a book, there's a long rain delay. It just kept raining. It didn't bother me. I think I fell asleep at some point. Then I decided to get treatment. As my luck would have it, the moment I walked in there, they're like, oh, you're gonna play in 10 minutes. Should have come here sooner. So, yeah, I don't get too bored. I like rain delays. I like the rain. 我有带一本书 通常如果我带书就会让下雨看起来短一点 如果没有带书的话时间很漫长 但不会困扰到我 我也顺了一下 如果够幸运的话他们会说我10分钟内就要上场了 得快点来 所以 我没有很无聊 我喜欢下雨暂停 我喜欢雨 Q. Serena, back to Sunday, last year, a lot of players were unhappy about the Sunday start. I'm just wondering, I haven't heard much about that this year. Have you heard players talk about it, how did you feel about it, you know, starting a tournament on a Sunday? 去年很多选手对於星期天开赛不高兴 今年没有听到这麽多怨言了 你有什麽感觉 SERENA WILLIAMS: I think tennis is all about business, and I think maybe tournaments make more money if it starts -- has three weekends as opposed to two. At the end of the day, it's a business. We're making them a lot of money on Sundays. 我觉得网球就是商业 我想或许三个周末可以有比较多票房 星期天可以赚到比较多钱 Q. It's been a little bit of a while since you and Venus have played at the same Grand Slam, I believe. 好久没看到你跟大威一起打大满贯了 SERENA WILLIAMS: It has. 是啊 Q. Does that make a difference? Is it nice to be -- to have her there to be together at a slam? 有差别吗? 跟姐姐一起出赛感觉很棒吗? SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, it is. I haven't even thought about it, really. I guess it has been a long time, but, you know, we really enjoy having each other here. We have a lot of fun, and she takes care of my dogs, or at least I try to put them on her. So it's easier. 当然 我们都很喜欢有对方在身边 这样感觉很棒 他会帮我顾我的狗 至少我会拖他照顾他们 这样轻松很多:P THE MODERATOR: Anything else? 还有问题吗? Q. Even when she was down, or when she lost nine straight games the second and third set, she was playing pretty well. She looked good, at least, and she looked like she was challenging you. She's somebody you can see doing something in the tour? She's only 19. 即使Pironkova落後 连输了九局 但他还是打的不错 看起来还是在挑战你 你觉得他以後会有不错的成就吗? 他现在才19岁 SERENA WILLIAMS: I don't know. She's -- I mean, I believe -- I think -- did she beat Venus a couple years ago in Australia? I personally would have propelled myself after that. So she's still at 91, so I don't know. It's hard to say. 我不知道 他? 我是说.. 我相信.. 我想.. (天啊 你一个问题就把Sharapova的招牌都卖完了) 他不是两年前在澳洲赢过大威吗?(其实是去年) 那场比赛後我有试着要去激励自己 但是他还是只排91? 我不知道 很难说 -- --
