http://uk.reuters.com/article/tennisNews/idUKT6691820080919 Jankovic toppled by risk-taking Kuznetsova Fri Sep 19, 2008 9:48am BST Photo - JJ擦汗照一枚 By Alastair Himmer TOKYO (Reuters) - Top seed Jelena Jankovic was bundled out of the Pan Pacific Open in a 2-6 7-5 7-5 defeat by Russian Svetlana Kuznetsova in Friday's quarter-finals. The defeat ended the Serb's hopes of recapturing the world number one ranking from Serena Williams this week following her recent loss to the American in U.S. Open final. Jankovic tore through the first set but, after being pegged back by Kuznetsova, both players struggled for consistency in the decider, which saw eight breaks of serve. A double fault gave Kuznetsova a 6-5 lead and the Russian's nerve held as she closed out proceedings with a kicking serve and a sharp backhand drop volley after almost two and a half hours. 打快兩小時半JJ三盤輸球，以上。 "I knew I had to take risks in the third set," the former U.S. Open champion told reporters after beating Jankovic for the fourth time in six meetings. "我知道我必須在第三盤冒險"前USO冠軍在六次對打中第四次KO JJ後告訴記者。 "She made a few double-faults on important points. I guess she was scared because I was attacking. "她在一些重要賽點有一些雙誤。我猜他害怕我的攻擊。" "In Russia we say if you don't take risks you don't drink champagne." "在俄羅斯我們說，如果你不冒險你沒法喝香檳。" Jankovic, who had fumed at the chair umpire and yelled at herself as her game began to unravel, was still in a black mood an hour after the match. JJ在她的比賽開始崩解，對主審生氣又對自己大喊，比賽後一小時依舊黑口黑面。 "I'm frustrated," she said with some understatement. "I was unlucky on a couple of big points. It just wasn't my day. I have to learn from this." "我很無力，"她輕描淡寫的說。"在一些重要賽點我很不幸運。這不是我的日子。我 必須從中學習。" http://uk.reuters.com/article/tennisNews/idUKT10061020080919 後面有訂正 關於接下來比賽 Kuznetsova will face either fellow Russian Elena Dementieva or Slovenia's Katarina Srebotnik in Saturday's semi-finals. Nadia Petrova pulled off her second upset in 24 hours by beating sixth seed Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland 6-3 6-0 in the bottom half of the draw. The Russian had stunned Serb Ana Ivanovic, the second seed in Tokyo, in three sets in Thursday's second round. (Editing by Martin Petty and N.Ananthanarayanan) --
