Ｑ：担任联邦杯队长最开心的时刻？
Ａ：两次在亚大一级赢得冠军－2007年在新西兰基督城与今年在泰国华欣这两次。
Best moment as a captain
Winning the Asia/Oceania Zone Group I twice – both the first time in 2007 in
Christchurch and again this year.
Ｑ：担任联邦杯队长最艰困的时刻？
Ａ：2014年在哈萨克斯坦的亚大一级比赛，因为我们的顶尖球员都不在阵中、一位选手受伤、
一位选手身体不适，所以只剩两位在撑。如果我们输了保级赛就得降级，还好最后击败了
印尼。
Worst moment as a captain
It was in the Asia/Oceania Zone Group I ties in Kazakhstan in 2014 because
all our top players were not there, then one of our players got injured and
another wasn’t feeling well, so we only had two players left. And if we lost
the last match we would go down to Asia/Oceania Zone Group II. Luckily we
won, we beat Indonesia.
Ｑ：下场出赛或担任队长，哪个比较简单？
Ａ：我想担任选手会比较单纯，因为我只需要专注在自己的比赛。担任队长就比需要照顾
成员及协调管理其他事务，要协调管理四位成员并非易事，有时她们之间并非那么亲近。
Is it easier playing or being captain?
I think playing is a bit simpler, I would say, because I only focus on my
match. Being the captain you have to take care of the others, organise things
and manage things. It’s not always easy to manage four players and sometimes
they are not so close.
Ｑ：妳心目中的联邦杯梦幻队成员和队长？
Ａ：我希望有Serena Williams和Agnieszka Radwanska两位顶尖单打球员，以及Martina
Hingis、Sania Mirza两位双打好手。至于队长则是Martina Navratilova。
Who would be in your Fed Cup dream team? Who is the captain?
Well, I guess we should have the top two players, Serena Williams and
Agnieszka Radwanska and the top doubles team: Martina Hingis and Sania Mirza.
The captain would be Martina Navratilova.
Ｑ：妳平均一周看多少网球比赛？
Ａ：我会关注比分和新闻，不过除了大满贯或一些大比赛我不太看球。
How much tennis do you watch in an average week?
I follow the score and the news, but I don’t watch that much unless it’s a
Grand Slam or a bigger tournament.
Ｑ：在辛苦训练后妳最喜欢怎么放松？
Ａ：我喜欢去看电影。
Ｑ：当妳获胜妳会怎么庆祝？
Ａ：和好友一起享用大餐。我喜欢海鲜及日本食物。
What is your favourite way to wind down after a hard training session?
I love to go to the movies.
How do you celebrate when you win?
Have a nice dinner with some good friends. I love seafood and Japanese food.
Ｑ：妳觉得有队长在场上对球员有帮助吗？为什么？
Ａ：我想是肯定的。因为当下妳能了解球员在场上的感觉，这对协助她们更有帮助。
Do you think it helps the players to have a captain on court? If so why?
I think so, because you can understand how the player feels under those
circumstances and it is easier to help them.
Ｑ：谁是妳孩提时代的运动偶像？
Ａ：Chris Evert。当我１２岁时她和 Navratilova 来到台北进行表演赛，当时 Evert
提早抵达没有对练员，而我是国内第一球员所以就和她练球。不过当时出于紧张和不会说
英文，所以并没有机会和她多交谈。
Who was your childhood sporting hero?
Chris Evert. I remember I practiced with her when I was 12 because she came
to Taipei for an exhibition match with Martina Navratilova and she arrived
early and didn’t have any hitting partner and I was the number one player in
Taiwan at that time and I got to practice with her. I didn’t talk to her
because I didn’t really speak any English at that time, and I was so nervous.
Ｑ：妳对妳的成员的第一期许？
Ａ：我想最重要的是团队精神、愿意一同携手合作，当然我也希望她们在场上尽力表现。
What is the first thing you expect from your players?
First to have team spirit, to be willing to work together and of course I
hope they try their best on the court.
