Q. What do you think of your first-round opponent?
你对你的第一轮对手有什麽看法?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I haven't looked yet, but I don't know. I'm sure Venus has
played her before.
我还没想过 但我确定Venus之前跟他打过
Q. How has your preparation been going into the Grand Slam?
你的准备工作如何?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, my preparation's been really good. I've been, you
know, just training every day and just getting out there on the court every
day. So it's been really good and really positive.
It's good. I like my preparation this year.
我想我准备的不错 我每天都有训练 或去球场走走
我想我的准备是积极正面的 我很喜欢我今年的准备工作
Q. Do you feel much pressure? You have a title to defend?
今年有卫冕的压力 你的压力大吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: No, I don't feel any pressure at all. I feel just, you know,
excited to be here. I don't feel like, Oh, my God, I have to win, win, win. I
just feel like I'm having so much fun every day.
不 我没有感觉到什麽压力 我只是很兴奋能再度来到这里
我没有告诉自己我得赢赢赢赢赢 我只是觉得自己正在享受每天的快乐
Q. How deep do you think you can go?
你觉得你能走多远?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I'm just taking it one match at a time, see how it goes from
there. Obviously, I always come in thinking, you know, I want to go all the
way and I want to win. You know, I have that potential. We'll see what
happens.
我只想要一场场比赛打好 看看这场打的如何
我当然想要赢 我是有这种潜能的 我们等着看吧
Q. When you arrived here, did you get some sort of flashback to what you did
achieve here last year? It was quite a monumental achievement.
当你抵达这里 你有回想去年你所办到的事吗?
那一刻真的相当值得纪念
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, I did. And I always do. Every time I walk down the
hall, I see the picture on the wall, it's such a good moment, such a good
memory. I love having the picture on the wall. It's my favorite thing. So
it's cool.
当然 我每次都会回想 每当我走入球馆长廊
我看见自己的照片在墙上 那真的是美妙的一刻 美妙的回忆
我喜欢留下自己的照片在那面墙 非常酷
Q. Could you talk about coming in last year sort of under the radar and
coming in this year as one of the favorites?
可以谈一下去年没人看好你而今年你是热门人选之一吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: You know, last year I was completely under the radar. I had,
I mean, absolutely no expectations from anyone, and that really made me want
to kind of prove everyone wrong.
This year it's completely opposite where I more or less have a lot of
expectations, but I'm still in here and I'm still here for me more than
anything. Just like that.
你知道去年根本没人看好我 所以我非常想证明他们是错的
而今年相反的人们对我多少有些期待 但但对我来说我身在此处才是最重要的
Q. Can you talk about the changes of the surface?
你可以谈一下球场的改变吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, I like the surface. I mean, I like how it's still kind
of one color. It's blue now, but still I like it.
I've never been one that can really tell the difference on each hard court
'cause, you know, they kind of all feel alike to me.
It's not as bouncy as it was last year, which I like. My gosh, I was
spraining my ankle so much and getting so many blisters all the time.
I mean, I like the surface. It's fine.
我喜欢新场地 我希望球场是统一颜色的 虽然现在是蓝色了
我不是那种能说出每种硬地不同的人 他们对我来说都差不多
今年的场地不像之前这麽黏了 我之前扭过脚踝也长很多水泡
所以我喜欢这个新场地 对我来说这是好事
Q. You look to be in good shape. Is this the fittest you think you've been
for a long time?
你看起来现在身材不错 我想这可能是你好长一段时间最匀称的时候了
SERENA WILLIAMS: It's definitely probably the fittest I've been in a
while - maybe (smiling).
我想可能的确是
Q. Obviously some pretty hot days last week. Forecast is that the heat is
going to be a factor. How does that affect you? Do you really hate playing in
those oppressive heat conditions?
上星期蛮热的 气象预报说未来几天也将有高温
这会影响你吗? 你讨厌在酷热下打球吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I love playing in the heat, I do. I think it's fun. I'm
definitely from the heat. I play my best tennis in the hottest weather. It's
great. So I like the heat.
我喜欢在高温下打球 我觉得蛮好玩的
我觉得在高温下可以打出最好的表现 所以我喜欢高温
Q. Do you think they should keep the roof open then?
你觉得他们应该保持让屋顶打开吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Sure. I mean, I'm not saying if it's 42 degrees, keep the
roof open. I'm definitely not for that. But if it's that hot, please, God,
close the roof. I'm not that insane or that drastic.
当然 umm 我是说如果42度的话当然是不该开啦
如果真的这麽热的话那拜托把屋顶关上吧 我还没有那麽疯狂
Q. What was your reaction to Justine's win last night in Sydney, the fact she
wasn't here last year?
你对於Justine夺得雪梨冠军有什麽看法呢?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Oh, I didn't know she won, so... I wasn't following it. I
went to bed last night like at 8, 7 or 8, really early. Isn't today Saturday?
Isn't the final usually on Saturday?
我不知道他赢了呢 我没有跟比赛
我昨天晚上七八点就睡了 今天不是星期六吗?
雪梨的决赛不是通常在星期六举行吗?
Q. Final was last night. In some respects, an impressive win, to win against
the No. 2 seed up in Sydney?
昨天就比完了 某方面来说 赢第二种子是令人印象深刻的吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, definitely impressive. Most impressive (laughter).
当然 最令人印象深刻的结局了
Q. Is she your biggest concern for this title?
他是你夺冠路上的最大阻碍吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I mean, my biggest concern is who I practice with every day:
Venus. She's playing unbelievable. She gets every ball back. I think Justine
is a big concern, as well.
But I don't necessarily think about my opponents like that, who I have to be
concerned about. I really just focus on what I need to do and what I need to
do right. And if I can do it right, then I'll have positive results.
我觉得我最大的麻烦是跟我每天练球的Venus 它可以把每个球都接回来
我想Justine当然也是个大麻烦
但我真的不太想去思考哪个对手会是我的麻烦
我只是想集中在我需要做的事和做对的事上
如果我能做对的话我就会有很不错的成绩
Q. The rankings say that she is the world No. 1. Does she feel like the world
No. 1 to you or do you feel that your best tennis is the best in the world?
排名里她是世界第一 你觉得他是世界第一吗?
或你的最好表现是世界上最好的网球吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I think right now she's absolutely the world No. 1. I mean,
she's winning every tournament that she's entering. I mean, she definitely,
definitely is No. 1. She definitely has that ranking, for sure.
我想现在他绝对是世界第一 他现在赢了每一个参加的比赛
所以他绝对是世界第一 他当然值得这个排名
Q. What is your opinion of Lindsay Davenport's comeback?
你对Lindsay复出有什麽看法?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I mean, I'm speechless because she looks better than me and
she's seven months out of having a baby. I'm convinced if I had a baby, seven
months later I'd probably still be in the hospital trying to get over the
pain (laughter).
I mean, she is my ultimate role model. I mean, I'm really so motivated. Like
she's just taken it to a new level. Honestly, I'm really speechless.
我无话可说 因为他看起来比我好而他已经离开七个月有了小孩了
我在想如果我有小孩的话 七个月後我大概还在医院克服痛觉呢
我的意思是 他是我的终极榜样 我很有动力 就像他已经到达了另一个境界一样
但坦白说我确实无话可说
Q. She's due to play Maria Sharapova in the second round if they got that
far. Do you think she could beat Maria? Is she at that level?
他可能会在第二轮遇到Maria Sharapova 你觉得他可以击败Maria吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I haven't seen her play since she's returned. But, I mean,
she's winning. She's won like three tournaments. I mean, she's doing really
well. So I think -- I think Maria's playing really well, too. It will be a
good match. It will definitely be one to watch.
从他复出过我还没看他的比赛 但他已经赢了三个比赛了
他现在打的很好 我想Maria最近也打的很好
所以我想这绝对会是场值得看的好比赛
Q. What do you expect of the season? How many titles do you want to win, or
any particular tournament you want to win?
你预期这个赛季会怎麽样? 你想赢几个比赛? 或想赢哪几个特定比赛?
SERENA WILLIAMS: You know what, I haven't thought about the exact number of
titles I want to win. You know, my goal is to play the tournaments I'm
entered in.
我没有想过切确我想要赢的数字 我的目标当然是赢得我参加的所有比赛
Q. A particular tournament you want to win?
有什麽特定想赢的吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I mean, obviously I would love to win the Grand Slams and
other tournaments. I want to do well in Dubai.
我当然想赢大满贯跟其他比赛 我也想要在杜拜有好表现
Q. You've talked about wanting to get back to No. 1. Is it a goal this year
to play enough to challenge for the No. 1 spot?
你之前提过想要重登第一 那麽今年你的目标会是打足够的比赛以挑战第一位置吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, my goal mainly, I figure if I play well in a solid
amount of tournaments, you know, I'll be able to take that ranking. I don't
think I necessarily -- I've never been the type of player that has to play 20
tournaments to get to No. 1, or 30. So, I mean, I definitely don't have to
do that.
当然 我希望能好好打上几个比赛 如果我办到的话我就可以拿到第一
我想我不太需要打20个或30个比赛去得到第一
Q. At this point do you feel that your body will allow you to play?
你觉得你的身体会允许你打这麽多点吗?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, my body will allow anything really. It's ready for
anything.
当然
Q. When you finish a season and you know this is the first major tournament
of the year, the sort of conditions you have to play in, when does your
training start and how does it evolve?
当你结束一个赛季 你知道这是新赛季的第一个大满贯
你何时展开训练? 如何开始?
SERENA WILLIAMS: You know, it's hard because, you know, it's so hot in
Australia. This time of the year it's really cold in the United States. My
training, you know, starts usually -- it never usually stops, especially
because it's such a big tournament in the beginning of the year. I mean,
you know, you take a week off if you can. But you have to always kind of
keep going.
And it's good if you come to Australia, play a tournament in advance, or come
to Australia at least a week ahead of time to kind of get used to the
conditions.
这有点难 因为当澳洲很炎热的时候在美国非常的冷
我的训练通常没有停过 特别是这是年初这麽重要的一个比赛
我的意思是你当然能休息一个星期 但你还是得继续前进
我觉得如果先到澳洲打的比赛也是好选择 或早一个礼拜到澳洲适应环境
Q. What is your reaction to the jailing of Marion Jones overnight?
你对於Marion Jones被判刑有什麽看法?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I mean, I didn't know you could go to jail for those types
of things. You know, I don't know. I don't know how to react to that. You
know, you have a lot of people competing and trying to do their best.
I'm going to stop there. I don't even know what to say to that.
我不知道该如何反应 你知道很多人都想竞争且表现出最好的一面
我想在这里结束这个话题 我真的不知道该如何回答
Q. What sort of message do you think this sends to athletes who I suppose
choose to use performance-enhancing drugs?
你觉得这件事传递了什麽讯息给那些想要用药物提升表现的运动员?
SERENA WILLIAMS: You know, I just think it says you shouldn't do it. I mean,
it's definitely, you know -- it's definitely sad. You see the pictures of her
; you can't help but feel sorry for her. But at the same time, it's like,
what do you do in that situation.
You know, tennis is really, really -- personally, I get drug tested a lot.
I know every Grand Slam, in a lot of tournaments, they do the drug testing.
We really have a good system in place to keep the sport clean and beautiful
- that it is and has been for years.
我觉得这代表我们不该如此 这事件令人难过
但同时你会思考自己会在这样的情形下会如何做
但以我个人来说我做了很多药检 每个大满贯或是很多巡回赛都有
网球有一个非常好的体制能保持这项运动的乾净与美丽
