For the second week in a row, Carolina Marin decimated the challenge of Tai Tzu
Ying with a display of such speed, power and precision that the world No.1 withe
red from the assault.
马琳连续两周以高速、力量与控球精准摧毁了戴资颖的挑战，这位世界第一在马琳的猛攻下
显得黯然失色。
Having won her second HSBC BWF World Tour Super 1000 title, Marin spoke once aga
in about being well on her way towards accomplishing the project to become a “n
ew player with a new mindset”.
在赢得第二座1000赛冠军后，马琳一再表达，她对于朝向成为一个“具有新思维的球员”的
计画感到满意。
There were spells in the match when Tai looked to be taking the fight to the Spa
niard – but unfortunately for her, those spells were fleeting. Her better momen
ts were when she pressured Marin in the deep with her attacking clears which set
up the rally for her other variations, but to keep up that pressure she needed
to be consistent. She struggled to control the shuttle at the net and with her c
lears from both ends, in sharp contrast to Marin, who barely did a thing wrong a
ll match.
在比赛中，戴资颖对马琳的奋战中曾出现灵光一现，但而不幸的是对她来说稍纵即逝。在比
赛中她做的比较好的是用平直高远球击压迫马琳，然后再搭配其他的一些变化。不过要持续
压迫对方她也需要保持一致性。跟马琳比起来她明显有控球的问题，不管是网前或后场高远
球都出错，而马琳很少犯错。
Tai rued her lack of consistency that left her chasing the Spaniard all match.
戴资颖对整场比赛缺乏一致性感到懊悔，这让她整场比赛都追着马琳跑。
“I feel very unfortunate that I made a lot of mistakes today. I know that Marin
is fast, so I tried to keep up with her speed, but Marin played aggressively to
day. I couldn’t control myself from making unforced errors.”
Having stormed past her opponent in 48 minutes, Marin pronounced that her sights
were set on the two major events this year – the Olympics and the World Champi
onships.
戴资颖：“我很遗憾我今天犯了很多错误。我知道马琳移速很快，所以我尝试跟上她的速度
，不过马琳今天打的很有侵略性。我实在很难在源源不绝的UE控球。”
经过四十八分钟狂轰猛炸对手之后，马琳马琳宣布她的眼光将投向今年两件大事：奥运会跟
世锦赛。
“I’m really happy, to win two titles in two weeks is amazing. I said to myself
and to my team that when we finish 2020 I want to be a like a new player with a
new mindset, more focussed on the game. I wanted to keep improving my game.
马琳：“我实在很高兴能在两周内拿了两个冠军，真是太神奇惹。2020年年末，我对我自己
还有我的团队说我要成为一个具有新思维的新球员，把所有精力放在比赛上。我想要不断精
进我的比赛内容。”
“We have two big goals for this year, the Olympics and the World Championships,
so it’s going to be an important year. And to start with two victories in two
weeks is unbelievable. So thank you to everyone in my team, because without them
I cannot win like this.
马琳：“今年我们有两个大目标，奥运跟世锦赛，所以今年至关重要。一开年就能取得两场
胜利真是令人难以置信。谢谢我的团队成员，没有他们我也不能赢得比赛。”（译注：好像
胜选感言XD）
“I expected a different game than last week. She had to change something if she
had to beat me. So my preparation for today was to keep going, keep pushing her
, keep the rally going, not make easy mistakes. I knew she was more tired than m
e, because she played a long match yesterday, so if she wanted to play a long ra
lly, I was prepared for that. This was one of the keys for the game.”
马琳：“我预期上个礼拜的比赛跟这周会有点不一样。如果她（戴资颖）要打败我的话，肯
定会改战术。所以我今天的战术准备就是一直压迫她，磨多拍，不要犯太多错误。我知道她
比我累，因为她昨天打三局。所以她要磨下去的话，我就准备好等著。这就是这场比赛的关
键之一。”
The third event of the Asian Leg – the HSBC BWF World Tour Finals – will begin
next week, and Marin was hopeful of continuing with her bright form.
至于下周的年终赛，马琳则希望能够继续保持出色的状态。
“I hope to continue like this. On Wednesday we start a new tournament. I’ve ne
ver won this (World Tour Finals) so it will be tough. We’ve been here for three
weeks; there’s one more week to go. I have to take it game by game. It will be
five more matches, so I will celebrate this victory first and then I will prepa
re.”
马琳：“我希望保持这种状态。周三我们又要开始打新的比赛。我从来没有拿过年终赛冠军
（译注：是你自己不要参加的吧），这对我们而言会很困难。我们在泰国已经三个礼拜了，
还有一个礼拜要撑，我必须一场一场来。还有五场比赛，不过我现在要先庆祝一下胜利，然
后再去准备下一场。”
