发帖数: 25274 | 1 If you're left-handed, currently in Paris and can break a nasty serve wide
to the ad court, you might just be who Roger Federer is looking for.
Deep into the second week of Roland Garros, options for lefty practice
partners are somewhat limited. But Federer is in need of lefty practice
partners during the next two days as he prepares for his blockbuster Friday
semi-final against arch rival Rafael Nadal.
Looking forward to their 39th FedEx ATP Head2Head meeting, Federer said that
playing Nadal at Roland Garros was a massive challenge despite his own
excellent form that he will take into the match.
“With Rafa, particularly on clay, you have to be aware of his strengths,
what he brings to the table. And on top of it, because he's a left-hander,
it just changes everything," Federer said.
“I have two days, which I guess is a good thing. It's better than one. It's
better than none. So from that standpoint, I get more left-handed practice,
more serves and all that stuff.
“Because I guess I have played five guys now that are righties, so for me
it's a complete switch-around. Just the way the ball goes out of your
strings with the different spins, it's just different. So you have to get
used to that quickly. Don't have much time to waste.
“That's why you have to be fearless to some extent to take on the spinny
balls, the sliding balls, the kicking balls, and that's what I will do on
Friday."
Nadal and Federer have met just once on clay in the past eight years: in
2013 in Rome. And they have not met on clay since Federer switched to a
larger racquet head, which offers more protection against Nadal’s signature
crosscourt forehand, which historically has haunted Federer on the dirt.
Although Federer is a modest 2-13 against Nadal on clay - including 0-5 at
Roland Garros - the Swiss said that he believes he has a chance to advance
to the final. On the upside, the Swiss is on a five-match winning streak
against Nadal, the longest run in his favour in their rivalry, which Nadal
leads 23-15.
“Like against any player, there is always a chance. Otherwise nobody will
be in the stadium to watch because everybody already knows the result in
advance,” Federer said. “And I think sport does that to you, that every
match needs to be played before it's decided.
“And that's exactly what everybody believes by facing Rafa. They know it's
going to be tough. But you just never know. He might have a problem. He
might be sick. You never know. You might be playing great or for some reason
he's struggling. Maybe there's incredible wind, rain, 10 rain delays. You
just don't know. That's why you need to put yourself in that position.
“For me to get to Rafa is not simple. It took five matches here for me to
win to get there. That's why I'm very happy to play Rafa, because if you
want to do or achieve something on the clay, inevitably, at some stage, you
will go through Rafa, because he's that strong and he will be there.
"I knew that when I signed up for the clay that hopefully that's gonna
happen. If I would have had a different mindset to avoid him, then I should
not have played the clay. So I think by that mindset, I think it helped me
to play so well so far this tournament.” | n*********e

如果你是左撇子，目前在巴黎，可以打破广告法庭的讨厌服务，你可能只是罗杰·费德
勒正在寻找的人。
在罗兰加洛斯的第二周深入，左撇子练习合作伙伴的选择有限。但费德勒在接下来的两
天里需要左撇子训练合作伙伴，因为他准备在周五半决赛中对阵对手拉菲尔·纳达尔。
期待他们的第39次联邦快递ATP Head2Head会议，费德勒表示，在罗兰加洛斯打纳达尔
是一个巨大的挑战，尽管他将以自己出色的形式参加比赛。
“对于拉法，特别是在红土上，你必须意识到他的优势，他带来了什么。最重要的是，
因为他是一个左撇子，它只会改变一切，“费德勒说。
“我有两天，我觉得这是件好事。它比一个好。这比没有好。所以从这个角度来看，我
得到更多左撇子练习，更多服务和所有这些东西。
“因为我猜我现在已经打了五个人，所以对我来说这是一个完整的转换。就像球用不同
的旋转离开你的弦的方式，它只是不同。所以你必须快速适应这一点。没有太多时间浪
费。
“这就是为什么你必须在某种程度上无所畏惧地接受旋转球，滑球，踢球，这就是我星
期五要做的事情。”
在过去的八年中，纳达尔和费德勒在红土赛场上只遇到过一次：2013年在罗马。自从费
德勒切换到一个更大的球拍头后，他们还没有在粘土上相遇，这提供了更多的保护，以
防止纳达尔的签名横传正手，这在历史上一直困扰着费德勒。
尽管费德勒在对阵纳达尔的比赛中以2比13战胜对手 - 包括罗兰加洛斯的0-5，但瑞士
人表示他相信自己有机会晋级决赛。从好的方面来看，瑞士人队在对阵纳达尔的比赛中
取得五连胜，这是他们在竞争中最为有利的一次，纳达尔以23-15领先。
“与任何球员一样，总有机会。否则没有人会在球场观看，因为每个人都已经提前知道
结果，“费德勒说。 “我认为体育运动会对你有所帮助，每场比赛都需要在决定之前
进行。
“这正是每个人都面对拉法所相信的。他们知道这将是艰难的。但你永远不会知道。他
可能有问题。他可能生病了。你永远都不会知道。你可能打得很好，或者出于某种原因
，他正在努力。也许有令人难以置信的风，雨，10雨延迟。你只是不知道。这就是为什
么你需要把自己放在那个位置。
“对我来说拉法并不简单。我在这里花了五场比赛才能赢得比赛。这就是为什么我很高
兴能够扮演拉法，因为如果你想在粘土上做或做一些事情，不可避免地，在某个阶段，
你会经历拉法，因为他那么强大，他会在那里。
“我知道当我报名参加粘土时，希望这会发生。如果我有不同的心态来避开他，那么我
就不应该玩粘土了。所以我认为这种心态，我觉得它对我很有帮助到目前为止这场比赛
打得很好。“ | k**f
