介紹Henman的一篇文章 滿久之前在 BBC sports Academy 看到 的 想說讓沒看過的人看一下 內容有球場的 也有私底下休閒的 Tim: Early years I started playing when I was three. One of the most important moments for me was going to Wimbledon when I was only five or six and watching Bjorn Borg play on Centre Court. From then on I decided I wanted to be a tennis player. I didn't just want to play at Wimbledon, I wanted to win it, and still do. I started having lessons when I was about eight. I never really knew I could be a good player, I just hoped so. I had plenty of dreams but it was not until I was 19 or 20 years old when I broke into the top 150 players in the world. Then I and saw what the standard was like and thought I'd a good opportunity. Tim: My big break I made my first appearance on Centre Court in 1996. It was the first round of Wimbledon and I was up against the French Open champion, Yevgeny Kafelnikov. He was also the fifth seed. I was only 21. Beating him was a very special moment for me. Ever since I'd seen Bjorn Borg play there as a kid, I'd dreamed about winning there. I went on to make the quarter-finals that year but was beaten by Todd Tim: My advice for youngsters Tennis is a great game and lots of fun - so enjoy yourself. If you want to take it further - be totally committed and work very hard whenever you step on court. If you do that one day your dreams can come true like they did for me. Tim: My ideal date If I could have dinner with anyone apart from my wife Lucy, who would it be? I would have said Princess Diana but sadly none of us have that opportunity now. Tim: My perfect day Well I'd get up pretty late as I'm pretty fond of my sleep. Then I'd have a great big breakfast with my friends. Then we'd all go off for a round of golf at a really nice course before coming home for a leisurely evening. Then we'd all go to a nice restaurant for a night out. Perfect! Tim: My top nosh My favourite food is sushi. Travelling the world as I do I've seen some great cities and tried all kinds of different food. But sushi - which is a Japanese way of preparing all kinds of fish – is my favourite. And extremely healthy. If I wasn't involved in sport in anyway I would probably be very unhappy. Tennis is as great a way to earn a living as you can get. But if I had to give it all up, I'd probably open a restaurant. --
