理论上应该是赛后当天就发心得文,不过实在太累太忙,趁还有感觉时速速写一下。
(稍微再补充一下)
“ I think the moment you've played somebody probably more than 15 times, you
know, especially in recent years also a few times, there's not that much more
left out there. Especially you know where the players go when it really
matters, how much can you still surprise somebody.”
“At the end of the day it comes very much down to who's better on the day,
who's in a better mental place, who's got more energy left, who's tougher
when it really comes to the crunch. In the tennis, there's always somebody
who's going to be a little bit better because there's no draws in our sport.
It's always quite brutal sometimes. Don't want to say always the better
player wins, but sometimes it can be tough. Like today, he could have broke
in that last game somehow and we could still be playing. Who knows.
“I know you guys think that we control everything. We don't. Some balls just
fly in and some don't. Good things happen when you try to do the right thing.
Bad things happen when you doubt yourself.”
“Try to win it, you know. Yeah, I mean, you got to have the winner
mentality, don't you? It's not like, I'm happy to be in the finals. It's
Serena, I have no chance. Like this you're going to lose, that's for sure.”
这几段话是与Nadal打完四强赛后的访谈,我觉得这几段话充份流露Rogi现在打球的态度。
一是与最顶尖的球员比赛,赢或输其实都不是必定的,战局是随时有变化的,谁撑下来、
谁就胜出,对方一定会找到机会,但他也会找到自己的机会。
二是对现在的他来讲,他要继续打下去的动力不全然是因为要保住自己所有的纪录,我想
更重要的是他还喜欢打、他还能是一个runer-up、及他还有想要挑战的东西(也许是在退休
前尽可能将H2H差距缩小、或是在曾经跌倒的地方重新站起)。
三是他或许不能控制自己每一场的状态,但是他也并不畏惧对手曾经赢他多少次,也不会
怀疑自己的能力,好事会在你尽可能努力做对的事情时发生,坏事会在你怀疑自我时发生
,所以是一球一球打,才有了经典的2017澳网决赛(甚至是从那时候起对Nadal就赢多输少
了),以及经典的2019年的温网四强及决赛。
我相信这场以局数来算实质上是打了6盘的决赛,虽然输球,但其实离赢球也非常近,一定
给了他蛮大的信心可以继续拼下去。祝福他在真正退休前能完成他自己设定的目标。
