原文访问是义大利文，官网网友Sarah-Solana翻成英文， 这是台维斯盃期间Roger在义大利做的访问。 有些地方我可能翻得不怎麽通顺 > < 请大家多多见谅。 原文网址 http://www.lastampa.it/sport/cmsSezioni/tennis/200909articoli/22698girata.asp Federer: “It’s easy being me” Federer: "要当我很简单。" The number one: “it will be complicated when I start to not enjoy myself anymore. But tennis will live on even without me.” 世界第一说:当我不再能乐於自我的时候，事情就会变得困难。但是就算没有我，网 球仍然能发展延续下去。 Genova – The Roger Federer that no one knows. He plays the piano, loves Michael Jackson, is terrified of spiders, snakes and parachuting. He shows off here and there, the Mozart of tennis, flashes of unsuspected dark humour, as when he dealt with the suicide of David Foster Wallace, the most lyrical of his idolatries. 没人知道的Roger Federer。他弹钢琴，喜欢Michael Jackson，害怕蜘蛛，蛇跟跳伞， 当论及David Foster Wallace的自杀时，网球莫札特展露出不为人知的黑色幽默。 David Foster Wallace是他最情感丰沛的崇拜者。 He speaks about doping, twins, God, showing in general a weak tendency when going off on an idea. In short, the old story, don’t ask Mozart why he’s Mozart. He is the first not to know anything about it. 他谈论禁药，双胞胎还有神，简单来说就是老话一句，别问莫札特为什麽是莫札特，他 是最不知道的人。 For the remainder, he appears as a wonder inside the Swiss red cross tracksuit. He came straight from New York, with his multi purpose tennis to give us a piece. Mission almost accomplished. Today we will know, first singles match. Rare case. Do we applaud our killer? Total charm his. Charming smile, warm and soft voice, and those hands, that we now know, of a pianist. 另外，他令人惊奇地穿着瑞士的红十字运动服出现，直接带着他多变的网球从纽约过来， 任务几乎完成了，第一场的单打。我们为对手喝采吗 ?完全被他吸引，迷人的笑容，温暖 柔软的声音，还有手，弹钢琴的手。 We imagine you depressed and unhappy, still in the nightmare of Del Potro’s heavy blows (shots) 我们猜你感到沮丧和不开心，还处在Del Potro强力重击的梦魇中? Eh, the night after, I went through the images of the match in my head. Of course I was sorry but I also knew that I played a great tournament and that perhaps I didn’t deserve to lose. However I lost against a great Del Potro and that in the end, tennis always wants a victim. 那天晚上，我的脑中闪过比赛中的片段。当然，我很遗憾，但是我也知道这个赛事我打 得很棒，或许不该输的。然而，我是输给很棒的 Del Potro。最终，网球总是得要个输 家。 Can you say much about the final between Federer and Del Potro: Beauty verses strength? 可以多说说Federer跟Del Potro的决赛吗?优美 v 力量? I’d say so. He is such that he hits with great force and I am that that I have to respond using intelligence. It’s always so in the challenges that one of the two is physically less exceptional. I took many right decisions during the match, but I didn’t always execute them in the right way. 可以这样说，他以强大的力量击球，而我必须用智慧给予回应。当某一方体力比较不那 麽突出的时候总是会这样。我在比赛中做了很多正确的决定，但是却无法一直用对的方 法去执行我的决定。 You’ve won everything, played everywhere on every surface, what else do you expect from yourself? 你什麽都赢过了，所有的地方，所有的场地，你对自己还有什麽期许呢? I hope many more years of happiness with tennis. To travel with my now numerous (numbered) family. I feel very loved and, as long as the people show that they enjoy my tennis, I will continue. 我希望能享受更多年网球的乐趣。跟我的家庭成员一起旅行，我感到被爱。只要人们展 露对我网球的喜爱，我就会继续下去。 How do you respond to those who think (support the fact) that Federer has a soft psyche, that under pressure he tends to crumble? 你会怎麽回应那些认为Federer心理素质不佳，在压力下就会崩溃的人呢? They write many things. One is quick to talk if you’re in a crisis and quick to celebrate a new hero. In tennis things happen very quickly. The truth is that you can’t always play at your best. I’ve been at the top for six or seven years. I’m very happy with my career and my life. 他们写很多东西，如果你有危机的时候，他们会很快下定论，而且很快庆祝新英雄的诞 生。网球的世界里事情都发生的很快，事实是你无法老是维持在最佳状态。我曾经6 或 7 年维持在世界第一。我对我的生涯跟生活都很满意。 How much has your life changed, having the twins from now on? 从双胞胎诞生到现在，你的生活改变了多少? The twins give me great serenity. To be a good dad and a tennis player at the same time is a wonderful challenge. I can’t wait for them to grow up and take part in my activities. 双胞胎为我带来心灵的平静。同时做个好父亲跟网球选手是美好的挑战。我迫不及待他 们长大，并且参与我的活动。 Even myths have their myths. I’ll give you these names; Mohammed Ali, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Usain Bolt and… Francesco Totti. 即使是神话人物也有他们心中的神话人物，我给你以下的名字:Mohammed Ali, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Usain Bolt and… Francesco Totti。 Michael Jordan was my great idol. I would add Boris Becker amongst the tennis players. Ali did incredible things. Tiger and Francesco are my friends. For me they encourage me to do better. Michael Jordan是我的偶像。网球选手的话我会加上Boris Becker。Ali的成就很不可思 议，Tiger跟Francesco are是我的朋友。他们鼓励我让我做的更好。 In what language do you speak with your friend Totti? 你跟你的朋友Totti用什麽语言交谈呢? We try to speak in English, but it’s not easy 我们试着用英文交谈，但这不太容易。 Music that’s in the background to your enterprise 音乐对你而言的意义。 Music is very important. I like to listen to it, especially when I’m driving. Since I was a boy I played the piano. I really liked dance (music) but today I am closer to rock. (I listen) to everyone, I love Michael Jackson. 音乐很重要，我喜欢听音乐，尤其是在开车的时候。从我还是小孩的时候，我就弹钢琴 了。我真的很喜欢跳舞(的乐曲)，但现在我比较喜欢摇滚乐。每个人的音乐我都听，我 很爱Michael Jackson。 The most pleasing tennis player to watch on tv 最享受在电视上看到的网球选手(的比赛)。 I really enjoyed watching Sampras against Agassi…I am a fan of my sport. I like to watch it apart from playing it, I like to study tactics. I see everything, even the doubles and the women’s tournaments. 我真的很喜欢看Agassi跟Sampras的比赛。我是这个运动的球迷。除了比赛之外我也爱 看，我喜欢研究战术策略。我看所有的比赛，即使是双打跟女子的赛事。 Foster Wallace wrote: To watch Federer play is a religious experience Foster Wallace写过:看Federer比赛是宗教体验。 I did a half hour interview with him at Wimbledon, one of the strangest that I’ve ever done. As I was going, I was still asking myself what we had said. I was very shocked by his suicide. 我在温布顿有接受过他访问，那是我做过最奇怪的访问之一。当我离开的时候，我还自 问我们到底说过些什麽。我对他的自杀感到震惊。 Did you have any idea? 你有什麽想法吗? I wish, I’m sure that it wasn’t because of me…artists like him have ideals of a very high level, that often don’t hold up, unfortunately, in comparison with life. He wrote a wonderful essay on me. Even thanks to him, the world is, for me, a better place. 我希望，我确定不是因为我。像他这样的艺术家有很崇高的理想，而与真实人生相较，那 崇高理想常无法维持下去。他写了篇关於我的美好文章。感谢他，这世界对我而言是个好 地方。 Religious? 宗教信仰? Only a bit, I admit it. I don’t go to church often, I’m not a regular, also because of my work. 只有一点点，我承认。我不常去教堂，因为我的工作。 Is there another life or is this enough, when we ask Roger Federer? 当我们谈起Roger Federer的时候，他有其他的生活吗?或是这样就够了? I’d like the idea of another life. I am doubtful, let’s say 50/50 我想要有其他的生活，我有点怀疑，一半一半吧! How complicated is it to be Roger Federer? 当Roger Federer有多困难? It’s very easy. It will become complicated the day that I don’t enjoy myself anymore. 很简单，只有当我不再能乐在其中的时候才会变得困难。 Roger Federer’s phobias? Roger Federer的恐慌来源? I am afraid of the idea of parachuting into an empty space. And then I’m scared of snakes and spiders. 我害怕要跳伞跳到一个空旷的地方。我也害怕蛇跟蜘蛛。 Doping even attacks tennis 禁药也侵袭网球。 I’d like a sport without doping, but it’s an illusion. There’s so much money involved, this pushes people to take drugs. I am convinced that doping doesn’t help tennis. Only a minority think differently. We can be submitted to checks at any moment and I believe that it’s the right thing to do. I prefer to know that I am playing against a clean opponent. Unfortunately it’s not always so. 我希望运动可以远离禁药，但这是个难题。因为运动有很多金钱利益在其中，而这促使 人们用药。我相信禁药对网球没有帮助。只有少数人不这样想而已。我们能在任何时间 接受检测，我相信这是正确的事情。我比较想知道我的对手完全清白，没有用药。不幸 地，并不总是这样。 An irreducible fan of yours wrote “the beauty of the gesture of Roger Federer is perhaps not essential to tennis, but to life” 你的球迷写说:Roger Federer的美好或许不只是网球所需，更是生活所需。 Thank you. In reality, I think that it can live even without Roger Federer. Tennis is greater than the tennis player.” 谢谢。事实上我想没有Roger Federer，网球还是能继续发展。网球比网球选手更伟大。 --
