曾考虑明年此时退役 纳达尔料再推迟
2020年10月23日
（西班牙-马德里23日综合电）纳达尔承认自己可能准备在明年的这个时候退役，但考虑
他目前的发挥，他觉得“不可能”。
年龄增长和伤病困扰一直都是体坛球星退役的主要原因。西班牙网球好手纳达尔（34岁）
在接受西班牙媒体El Periodico访问时承认，自己已经在考虑退役的可能性。
“对于现在的我来说，我觉得明年退役的可能性是不大的，你不能预测未来，我不知道生
活会带来什么，也许有些时间会发生让我不知道自己在做什么，希望事情不会是这样，但
我必须做好准备。”
“我不会担心那一天（退役）的带来，因此我现在还不想去考虑它，当时候到了就会感觉
到它，我会意识到这点，可能不会每个早晨都去训练、不断改进、想着目标冲击，或保持
竞争力的激情等，这些情况发生的时候就是我需要退出的时刻，需要做一些比网球更重要
的事了。”
“红土之王”纳达尔早前在法国网球公开赛摘获个人第20个大满贯赛男单桂冠，追平了瑞
士天王费特勒的男子网坛历史纪录。

Rafael Nadal admits he could be ready to retire this time next year, but he do
es not believe it to be likely at this stage.
Nadal achieved history at Roland Garros earlier this month where he won his 20
th major title to draw level with Roger Federer as the most successful male te
nnis player in history.
However, at the age of 34, he is aware that there are more days behind than th
ere are those ahead, and he sees no point in hiding from it.
“I can’t guess when I’ll retire,” Nadal told El Periodico. “Who knows if
that will be the same in a year’s time.
“You cannot predict the future. I don’t know what life will bring, maybe thi
ngs will happen that will make me disillusioned about what I’m doing.
“Hopefully that is not the case! Of course, to this day, I see it unlikely, b
ut one must always be prepared because things change very quickly.
“Of course, I am not afraid of that day and, therefore, I do not consider it.
“It is clear to me that when I arrived, I will feel it, I will know it, I wil
l realize, probably that I will no longer feel that passion that moves me to g
o to training every morning, those continuous improvement objectives that one
needs to remain competitive.
“When that happens, it will be time to say I quit and start doing things that
are as or more important than tennis, of course.”
