Roger Federer didn't expect at all to win so easily, 6/2 6/4 6/4, and to play
so good against the Czech Tomas Berdych. In press conference, The Swiss
player said he was very satisfied with the way he played: 'I was hoping to
play good against better ranked players because I guess I know them more and
I know these matchups so well over the years that maybe sometimes it's easier
to play against them than it is against a qualifier, somebody I've only
played a few times.'
Federer:“我本来希望可以对到排名较高的选手，因为我想我对他们比较了解，
相较于一些选手我只有打过几次，对决到这些选手我想我可以打得很好。”
'So I didn't expect it as such, to be honest, especially not this kind
of a scoreline, especially not having to save no breakpoints, just always
rolling on the serve. That was a big surprise to me. I think it was a great
mental test for me to see if I could stay in the match, point for point, keep
rolling. I was able to do that. That's where I'm just really happy that I was
able to deliver that. From the baseline, honestly I felt worlds better than
in the first couple of rounds. Yeah, it's wonderful. It's nice to do it over
best-of-five sets. Even though it wasn't five sets, but three sets, it's just
nice to know that you could do it.'
“所以老实说我并没有预期到这个情况，尤其是这样的比数和没有任何破发点
需要挽救。对我而言这是一个很大的惊喜，我想在球场上，分与分之间对我而言是很大的
心智考验。我想我做到了，我非常开心我能够完成这项考验，老实说，在底线来回的前
几轮我觉得世界变得更美好了，非常完美，如果能够打五盘就好了，虽然这不是五盘的比
赛，但你知道你可以做到感觉很棒”
In his post-match interview, Berdych just said, I wish I was in the crowd
watching this match, not to be on the court.
Berdych:“我希望我是在观众席里观赏这场比赛，而不是在场上....”
In the next round Federer will play against Kei Nishikori. He doesn't know
who is the favourite, 'but he's definitely played better and more tennis in
recent months. But then again, it's a new season. We'll see what happens. But
I'm a big fan of his game. He's got one of the best backhands out there. I
love how he can crush it down the line or crosscourt. He's got wonderful
second serve returns. He's fast on his legs. Strong in his mind. I know how
tough he is as the match goes along. He finds his range and his rhythm, he's
tough to stop. It's definitely an exciting match for me, anyway.'
Federer 谈及下场的对手锦至圭。“在最近几个月他确实打得越来越好。但这是
一个新球季，我们还不知道会发生什么。但我是他的粉丝，他有非常好的反拍，我很喜欢
他如何来回底线和穿越场地，他还有完美的二发和回发球，有很快的脚程，强壮的心智，
我知道和他对决有多么艰辛，当他找到自己的节奏，你很难阻止他，无论如何这绝对是一
个令人兴奋的比赛”
The Japanese player admitted: 'For sure it's not going to be easy. He was
playing great tennis today. I watch7 only few points. But, you know, it's
always great to play Roger. It's big challenge for me. I'm just happy to play
him because I think we needed him on the tour. Happy to see him back a
hundred percent. Yeah, excited to play next round.'
锦织圭:“我确定这不是一场容易的比赛，他今天打出非常棒的网球，我只有看
几个分数的来回，但你知道的，和Roger打球是一件很棒的事，我想我们在这个赛事需要
他，很开心他能以100%的状态回归，我非常期待下一轮比赛。”
Asked how is his physical condition, Nishikori replied: 'Not too bad.
First match was tough. After the day, I was sore little bit. But now I'm feeling
really well. These two matches help for me to being healthy. Yeah, try to
prepare well tomorrow again and ready for next match.'
谈及自己的身体状况，“还不错，第一场比赛很艰辛。在那之后有一点酸痛，但
现在我感觉非常好，前两场比赛帮助我维持健康，让我准备更充分面对明天和下一轮的
比赛。”
