J. DEL POTRO/R. Federer 62, 67, 63 An interview with: ROGER FEDERER THE MODERATOR: Questions, please. Q. You've experienced many strange things in your varied career, but being two points from going out and a round robin qualification decided by one game, how curious is that in terms of curiosity? 对於差两分就出局跟晋级资格决定在1局的感觉，会不会觉得很奇怪? ROGER FEDERER: Well, obviously the focus is completely on my own qualification. I knew I wasn't looking very good at whatever, 6 2, 4 All, let's say. Still trying to find my game and everything. It reminded me a lot like the first couple matches I played in the round robin. I just started slow. Never really found my game. Also had a tough start to the breaker. Just tried to hang in there. I mean, he served a great serve at 5 4, then missed that forehand. I knew I couldn't lose in two sets because I knew that was going to knock me out. That's why I was very excited having won the second set. It was disappointing to lose at the end, you know, against Juan Martin, who I already lost against at the US Open. Had chances, you know, at 3 All. Had a couple of break points. Had him on the down the line backhand and stuff, so it was unfortunate. I thought he played a really good match. I thought he was able to lift his game after the first two matches where I just thought he looked a bit weary. So for me it's a tough loss. But, sure, I'm happy I'm through. That he got so close with the other two guys, it's quite incredible. I am how do you say in a way surprised myself it came down to a couple games. 重点是自己的晋级资格。在6-2 4-4 的时候看起来不太妙，还在找比赛节奏，想起前几场 小组赛，都很慢热。开始抢七的时候不顺，试着坚持住。对方在5-4 的时候发了好球，但 是正拍失误。知道如果被直落而就出局了。所以赢第二盘很兴奋。在美网之後又输给Del Potro很失望。3-3的时候有机会，有一堆破发点，所以很不幸。对方打了场真的很棒的比 赛。认为Del Potro 在前两场比赛看起来有点累，但是能在之後提升状态。对自己而言是 场艰难的失败。但是很高兴过关了。Del Potro 跟另外两个人打这麽接近很不可思议。对 於晋级资格取决与几局感到很惊讶。 Q. Are you aware during a match like that of all the mathematical probabilities and possibilities that are going on or do you just play the match without knowing or taking that onboard at all? 比赛中间知道所有(有关晋级资格)的可能性吗? ROGER FEDERER: The only thing that was important to me was the set I needed to win, trying to win the match. The rest you block out and you concentrate on the match because I don't want to lose against fellow rivals. It's not something I enjoy doing, to be quite honest. A lot of money, a lot of points on the line. So it would have been nice to go through. It was a clean sheet to the semis. I missed that. But it was against a good player today. 对自己来说，唯一重要的是自己需要赢的那盘还有赢比赛。其他的不管，专心在比赛上， 因为不想输给竞争对手，这不是自己喜欢做的事情。关系到很多钱跟积分。所以要是能赢 会很好，会以小组全胜晋级准决赛，但是没能做到。不过今天的对手很棒。 Q. I'd like to know, after winning the second set, you had the knowledge that by winning one game in the third you were qualified for the semifinal? 赢第二盘之後，知道再赢一局就晋级准决赛吗? ROGER FEDERER: Yeah, I didn't know that. 不知道。 Q. You didn't? 不知道? ROGER FEDERER: No. Otherwise I would have been gone on the ground and celebrated it, right (smiling)? I didn't do that. 不知道。不然就去庆祝了(笑)。但是没有去庆祝。 Q. The end of the match was quite confusing. Juan Martin was left on the court for some time. 比赛结尾有点令人困惑，Juan Martin在场上待了些时间。 ROGER FEDERER: I didn't see that. 没看到。 Q. Waiting to find out who he'd qualified. 等着要看看谁晋级。 ROGER FEDERER: Okay. 嗯。 Q. Obviously you didn't know about that. 显然你不知道。 ROGER FEDERER: I didn't see that, no. I was doing something else. 没看到，当时在做别的事情。 Q. What do you think about the qualification system in general? It's obviously been very confusing tonight for at least one of the players. Andy Murray also tweeted that he was confused waiting for the result to come through. 对晋级系统的想法?今晚起码有1个选手对此很疑惑。Andy Murray也在Twetter上说，他对 结果很疑惑。 ROGER FEDERER: I think I answered the question before. I mean, it's - how do you say there are certain rules and these are the rules. Sometimes unfortunate, sometimes fortunate, you know. These times are very hard for Murray, who didn't get through. But he got so close. How can we imagine that we all play three sets and it comes down to a couple of games. He had it maybe on his racquet when he served against him at 5-1 down in the third. You have to go back there, that maybe if he held that game, all of a sudden he gets through. That's not the way you can think. I definitely tried to push myself to close out matches as quickly as I can against fellow rivals because you never know when you might need those games. They might come back in the match and turn the match around completely. It happened to me once this year against Tsonga. I was up 5-1 in the third and I ended up losing. You always have to push yourself. The system is the way it is. 之前有回答过了。有些特定的规则在，而这就是规则。有时候幸运，有时候不是。这次对 Murray很不幸，因为他没能晋级。但是很接近。很难想像所有比赛都打三盘，而结果取决 於几局。当Murray自己在第三盘1比5落後发球的时候，或许一切是悬於他自己。回到当时 如果他保住发球局，那他就晋级了。都会要自己尽快结束比赛，因为永远不知道什麽时候 会需要这几局。对手可能会逆转比赛。今年对Tsonga的时候发生过，第三盘5-1 领先然後 输掉，总是要鞭策自己。晋级系统就是这样。 Q. Through to the semis, do you prefer one of the three guys that you can face? 晋级准决赛，有比较想跟谁打吗? ROGER FEDERER: I don't know, again, the scenarios on the other side. I think there, it's a bit more straightforward. I hope anyway (laughter). No, I mean, preference? Not really. I think whoever I play probably is in good shape, you know. The guy who I play also has probably won two matches, I'm sure, so he's on a roll, as well, same as Del Potro and myself. Yeah, I'm excited to be through. But I wished I could have won today. That would have given me extra confidence. Now it's the way it is. But I got a day to rest, which is probably a little advantage. 不知道。无论如何希望对面的状况比较明朗(笑声)。没有特别想跟谁打。不管跟谁打，对 手都已经赢了2场比赛，都是状况火热，就像自己跟Del Potro一样，晋级很兴奋，但希望 今天能赢，那样会有额外的信心，但现在就是这样了。不过有一天可以休息，可能是有些 优势。 Q. You said you know Del Potro could raise his game. To which level? Are you surprised how good he could play? Do you think he could be better, something more? 对Del Potro的看法，他能打得更好吗? ROGER FEDERER: Well, I mean, time will tell. It's not disrespectful at all, but I think he's done incredibly well the last six months, let's say 18 months. I think he's really, really improved a lot. I didn't think he was going to become that good, to be quite honest. I played him a few times before, that's why I have a very good record against him still, because back then, he was playing very strangely, I thought. With his size, he was playing more like a guy who is like a little guy. Today he's finally using his size to his advantage. It's going to be interesting to see how he progressing. I was already wrong once. So I don't know where it's going to take him. Seems like the sky's the limit for him at the moment. He seems very consistent, very tough mentally, too. Those are definitely good attributes to have for the future. 时间会说话，不是不敬。但最近6个月，18个月以来，Del Potro的表现很不可思议。认为 Del Potro 进步很多很多。老实说原本不认为他能变得这麽棒。以前有打过几次，所以对 他还保有不错的纪录，但是觉得以前他打球方法很奇怪。他用他的身材打小个子选手的打 法，现在终於利用身材优势。以前看错过一次。不知道以後他会怎样，但现在对他来说极 限像天一样高。他很稳定，心理素质好。这些都是好特质。 Q. You had those three break points at 3 All. At the start of the following game, he had the lucky net cord that put you down Love 15. Did you have a bit of a mental letdown after having missed those three break points and then the net cord? 3-3的时候有3个破发点，接下来那局刚开始，他有个擦网球，0-15，在错失三个破发点还 有那个擦网球之後，有觉得沮丧吗? ROGER FEDERER: No, not really. I mean, I thought I actually played I remember especially one breakpoint I remember both actually. I thought I was unlucky on the first one, too, hit the net, gave him the advantage in the rally. The second breakpoint, I thought I played it very well. I had a down the line. Hit the net there, didn't go over. Sure, it was unlucky. But sometimes, you know, games go very quickly. You seem unbreakable for a long time, and then you just need, you know, one sort of unlucky spell or one bad couple of serves in the first two points and then you're down Love 30. That's what happened to me. I don't think I should have missed the overhead either. I underestimated that it was going to go longer than I thought it was. That would have been a 15 All game then instead of being a Love 30 game. Then I needed to push it and force the issue. I couldn't do it. It was a bit of a pity because I thought I was starting to figure him out actually. So, yeah, he caught me on the finish line, I thought. 没有。记得是两个破发点，尤其是其中一个。第一个破发点有点衰，擦网让他取得优势。 第二个的话，觉得自己那分打很好。打了个边线球，但是没过网。比赛进行很快，有时候 很久都不会被破发，但一小段时间不顺或是不好的发球，就会让自己陷入0-30。今天就是 这样。觉得那个高压杀球不该失误，低估了球的深度。然後就得再加压，但是没能做到。 很可惜，因为觉得自己实际上开始找到解决之道了。 Q. Do you feel sorry for the spectators who didn't know at the end of the game who had qualified? There must have been thousands of people who didn't know Murray was out, that Del Potro was through? Maybe some of them didn't know you were through. Do you feel sorry for the spectators who paid money to watch you tonight? 为那些到比赛结束还不知道谁晋级的观众感到遗憾吗?有数以千计的人不知道Murray出局， Del Potro晋级。或许有些人不知道你晋级了，为这些买票进场的人感到遗憾吗? ROGER FEDERER: Well, I didn't see what happened after the match. Like I said, I had other things to do, like a doping test and showering, stretching and stuff, getting ready for Saturday, when I heard I was through. Sure it's confusing. It's hard for Murray. Yeah, I mean, I asked Juan Martin myself at the net, Did you make it or not? He said, I don't think so. So that's the story I got. Of course, you got to feel sorry for the guy who didn't make it, you know. At the same time, Del Potro beat the No. 1 player in the world, in the group, and I guess also deserves to go through. There's only two places, and that's the way it is. It happens very, very rarely. But I still think there were a lot of Federer fans there, a lot of Del Potro fans there, who were there just to enjoy a match and didn't really care who is going to make the semis. Then, of course, the ones who also really care about who is going to make it there. For those, it definitely was quite a rollercoaster match then, too, the ones who were there with the calculators. I wasn't one of them (smiling). 没看到比赛後发生什麽事情，听说自己晋级的时候，在做其他事。在网前有问Del Potro 有没有晋级，他觉得没有。所以自己知道的事情是这样。当然会为没晋级的人感到遗憾， 但同时Del Potro 在小组打败世界第一，也应该够格晋级。很少发生这种事情，现场还是 有很多Federer 跟Del Potro 的球迷，他们只是想要享受比赛，不关心谁晋级准决赛。当 然也有在乎的人，对於他们，那些带着计算机来这里的人而言，这大概是场跟云霄飞车一 样的比赛。但我不是他们其中之一(笑)。 FastScripts by ASAP Sports --
