Madrid Masters - Federer sets aim on number one ranking Sun, 13 May 23:30:00 2012 http://tinyurl.com/7d5fcq8 After capturing the Madrid Open title and knowing he will climb back above Rafa Nadal to number two in the world, Roger Federer has set his sights on reclaiming the top ranking.. 马德里夺冠，重返世界第二，Federer目标直指夺回球王宝座 The resurgent 30-year-old Swiss came from a set down to beat Tomas Berdych in the Madrid final on Sunday, a fourth title of the year and a third in the Spanish capital that put him level on 20 Masters crowns with great rival Nadal. Success in one of the upcoming grand slams could catapult him above Novak Djokovic to number one, a position he last held in May 2010, and he would then equal, and almost certainly break, his idol Pete Sampras's record of 286 weeks at the top. 30岁的Federer逆转胜Berdych，夺下今年第四冠，在马德里的第三冠，也将大师赛冠军数 推进至20冠，若是他成功拿下即将到来的大满贯赛事，Federer将有机会重登球王，并追 平甚至超越Sampras的总球王286周之纪录 A buoyant Federer told a news conference that would be "absolutely amazing". "Back then I was just trying to stay world number one and I never really looked at Pete's record that much," he said. "I guess I could have chased it a few years ago, just really trying to beat that record," added the 16-times grand slam singles champion. "It's no secret for any player out there that you'd rather be number one than number two. "But I look at the long term, maybe if I wasn't good enough to break that record then maybe I never will be." Federer说 "过去，我仅是试着维持世界第一，倒是没太关注破纪录这档事，因为我想我必须花好几年 来破这个纪录，又或许因为我表现不够好而将永远无法破这纪录" Before Madrid, Federer had not played for six weeks since losing to Andy Roddick in Miami, deciding he needed some time away from tennis to recharge his batteries and rid himself of one or two niggling injuries. 马德里前，Federer休息了6周远离网球来好好充电，并好好休养那一两个小伤?! He has played some of his best tennis in years in winning his four titles this year, including the Indian Wells Masters, and will bid for a second French Open crown in Paris starting later this month after his triumph in 2009, which was also the year he last won in Madrid. 他将追寻第二个法网冠军，上次是2009年了，当年他也拿下马德里冠军 "I don't need to beat every record Pete set, he's my idol after all and I'm just happy I'm that close already," Federer said. "But it's exciting times ahead for me. Winning so many tournaments and playing so well obviously I do believe I can win the grand slams. "But I know the difficulty of the French Open and the focus will be a lot on Novak because he's going for four in a row and on Rafa because he's the defending champion. It's going to be an exciting tournament." Federer说 "Sampras是我的偶像，我不需要打破他竖立的每个纪录，不过我倒是很高兴自己如此接近 这个破纪录时刻，我相信自己可以再拿下大满贯赛冠军" "虽然在法网是不容易啦，因为大家总是关注Djokovic可否连拿四大满贯或是关注Nadal这 个卫冕冠军" Federer said equalling Nadal's record of Masters titles was not such a big deal for him given that the series has only been running for a relatively short time. "That one for me is just a number at the moment," he said. "It's amazing how many Rafa has got in such a short time and it's nice to win another one," he said. "I have won three of the last four now and it's been a great streak and that's what I look at." 关於谈到追平Nadal的大师赛冠军数，Federer表示那倒还好，他很推崇Nadal是在如此短的 时间内竖立了这个纪录 -- 加油吧!!老费...我相信你可以的!! --
