Williams in ominous touch by Jennifer Witham Monday, 15 January, 2007 Unseeded two-time Australian Open champion Serena Williams was in ominous form on Day One of the 2007 tournament with the American crushing No.27 seed Mara Santangelo 6-2, 6-1 on Rod Laver Arena. 本次被列非種子的兩屆冠軍小威今天以令人恐懼的狀態輕鬆打敗27號種子Santangelo The former world No.1 showed glimpses of her old self as she bundled the unfortunate Italian out of the Open in just over an hour and she sees no reason why she can't reach the top of the mountain once again. 這位前世界第一讓大家從他擊敗Santangelo的比賽裡看到他極盛的影子 他自己也認為說他不能回到頂尖是沒理由的 "I can definitely win a third title, for sure," Williams said. 他說:"我當然相信我可以贏下第三個澳網錦標" "My mom and dad always taught me to think positive. For me to sit here and say no now - I just can't do that. 我爸媽一直都教我要往正面想 對我來說我就是不能坐在這裡說"不" "Now whether I win, lose or draw, that's you know, up to me, but I'm not going to sit here and say no. I just can't do that." 不管我贏.輸.還是平手 你知道 取決於我 但我就是不會坐在這說我不行 我不能這樣做 Further evidence to the fact Williams has the self-belief to win her third Australian Open comes with her critical analysis of her methodical win over Santangelo. 他今天在關鍵時有條理的表現證明了小威仍然保有他的信心去贏得第三個澳網 "Well, I think there's so much I can do to improve. I actually wasn't a hundred percent happy with the way I played," she said. 我覺得我還有很多地方可以改善 我其實對於今天的表現不是百分百的高興 "You know, my mom said I did a little better at some things. I just thought there were some things I could do a lot better. 我媽說我在一些處理上做的好一點了 我當時想我可以把一些地方做的好更多 "But you know, as long as I'm moving forward, figuratively and literally, I should be fine." 但你知道 只要我繼續向前 我應該會打的不錯 For her part, Santangelo was surprised by the form of Williams who had not looked close to her best in her lead-in tournament - the Moorilla Hobart International - in which she bowed out at the quarterfinal stage at the hands of Sybille Bammer. Santangelo對於上週在Hobart表現不好的小威感到驚訝 小威上週在八強輸Bammer "I didn't play too good. I had some problems last week," Santangelo said. 我打的並不太好 我上週覺得有點毛病 "I have been sick and I didn't feel too good on court, to be honest. 我有感冒而且老實說我在場上感覺並不好 "(But) she played very good today. I saw a few of her games in Hobart last week and to be honest, she didn't play like she played today. "She improved a lot. Today she played very well. She served very well, she put on a lot of pressure, and was much better than she was in Hobart." 但小威今天打的太好了 我看了一點他上週在Hobart的比賽 老實說 他打的跟今天打的差很多 他進步很多 他今天打的很好 發球很棒 給我很大的壓力 比他在Hobart的時候好太多了 --
