TORONTO インタビュー
RogerFederer.comで有名なkristさんがインタビュー内容を紹介してくれました。

-----------------------------------
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.

Q. What happened today?

ROGER FEDERER: Missed opportunities, I guess. One of those matches maybe I think I should have never lost, you know. Having an easy volley in the, what was it, 3-1 and game point.
That one cost me dearly in the end, so it was a disappointing match today.


Q. Seems as though your mentally and physically drained from Wimbledon.

ROGER FEDERER: You wouldn't have asked me that if I would have won, right? So I guess.


Q. Talk about part of Simon's game that was the most troubling to you or just the most difficult to play against
tonight.

ROGER FEDERER: No, I think the problem was my game today, you know. I had everything to really put him away.
I didn't think I served well today at all.
It's tough. Different balls than at Wimbledon.
I was serving 70% in Wimbledon and here I'm serving 50%.
Can't serve any aces, so it's just a different type of the match.
Maybe I guess first match on hard court couldn't sneak through maybe the way I usually can, so it hurts obviously.
It hurts your momentum because I think I get through the match and I get into the tournament and start playing better.
But I got caught cold, so it's kind of hard.


Q. In the last game of the match, I think a lot of people were expecting you to still come back and maybe take it to 5-All.
The four unforced errors in a row was so unusual to see that from you. What happened there?

ROGER FEDERER: I don't remember those points. It's all a blur right now, so...


Q. How do you regroup?

ROGER FEDERER: Well, what do we got, four days?


Q. Yeah.

ROGER FEDERER: Great. So, no, I don't know. Play doubles.
Try to win the doubles here. That's what I'm looking at here.


Q. I saw you were not too happy with the officiating?

ROGER FEDERER: With the what, the umpire?


Q. Yeah.

ROGER FEDERER: Never an issue for me. I'm never going to win or lose because of an umpire, so I don't care.


Q. To some extent, do you agree with Justine Henin's decision to retire at the peak of her career?

ROGER FEDERER: Do I agree with that? Not today.
Ask me another day. Please don't kill me with questions like this.


Q. In the third set I think you guys were tied 4-4 and he was up 15-Love on his serve. You had a ball that was called in and he challenged it and it was in.
It was right, but it seemed they didn't award you a point.
I don't know if you caught that, but some of us watching picked that up, and he won the next point and you weren't really awarded anything.

ROGER FEDERER: What happened there?


Q. It was 15-Love on his serve.

ROGER FEDERER: Then?


Q. He challenged a call and it was in and it remained 15-Love and you didn't get anything and he picked up the next point and it went to 30-Love.

ROGER FEDERER: But it was supposed to be replayed, so I don't think I could have taken the point.
The best I could get out of that situation was to replay the point.
That's what I got, and I lost the point.
Yeah, I mean, that's the problem sometimes like on clay, right?
You stop play and it's good so you replay the point.
If it was a clean winner, yeah, then obviously it's 15-All, but not in that situation.


Q. Seemed that he was very willing to trade forehands with you, sort of crosscourt forehands, which seems a bit unusual.
Did you pick up on that?

ROGER FEDERER: Well, I mean, he's a good baseliner.
We saw that today.
He moves well. He's deceiving because he's kind of thin and tall but moves really well for his height, you know. He flicks a lot of balls with his backhand as well, so when you come in you can't see where he plays.
Yeah, I mean, I think I did really well for a long time trading forehands with him. As the match went on I struggled a little bit to put the forehands away.
Got maybe a little bit unlucky to get broken in the second set when he had a net cord and a shank on the line. I ended up losing that game.
Of course I came back, but I think I had really good momentum and I was playing well.
I should have put him away in two sets. After that I guess he got a little bit of a lift and he was comfortable trading forehands with me. So, you know who knows, maybe in the long run paid him the match really. I don't know.


Q. At 4-3 in the third I believe you were serving.
You had an exchange with the chair umpire.
Could you talk about that?

ROGER FEDERER: Not today.


Q. No?

ROGER FEDERER: Didn't lose because of that.


Q. Everyone has losses...

ROGER FEDERER: Another try. Here we go.


Q. Sorry.

ROGER FEDERER: No problem.


Q. How do you regroup from something like this for the rest of the hard court season?

ROGER FEDERER:
It's a bad start, no doubt.
Wish it could have been different.
Like I said, going to try to do well in doubles and practice on the side.
Only really three, four days of practice since Wimbledon.
It's not an excuse in any way, but I'm going to get some practice in.
There's plenty of players around, so don't know when I'm leaving this place and going to Cincy yet.
Depends on the doubles much.
It's important to stay positive.
Hard court season just started.
It's the start of, what is it, nine months of hard court. It's not the end of the world, but I wish it could have started better.
I like this surface and like this tournament.
I've done well here in the past, so it definitely hurts.
But like you say, I've got to regroup and look forward.
Bigger picture is the Olympic Games and the US Open.
This is really the place where I want to win, so I have to make sure I'm ready for that.

TORONTO Wimby以上にがっくり
確かに、Wimbyの負けから自信をなくしているのかもしれません。
ブレイクアップ後にブレイクダウンしているのは、絶対キープできる自信がなかったせいでファーストの確立が落ちているのかも。
それを挽回しようとリターンゲームでは果敢にネットに出て攻めている。
ネットポイントって5割とれれば良い方って聞いたことがあります。
だけど、それがロジャーのスタイル。
がむしゃらに出てプレッシャーかけて、コートに返ってきたら一か八かの飛びつきボレー。

今冷静に考えてみたら、
・サーブが悪い
・ショットの精度も低い
この最悪な状態でロジャーなりに考えて攻めていたんだと思いました。

来週のシンシィまで時間も少ないし、休みも取らないと思います。
この状態を引きずっているとあまり良い結果が期待できないですね。。。

こうなったら、
No.1から陥落しても良いから、負け続けて、負け癖にも慣れて、
一つの勝利をきっかけに自信をつけて、再びNo.1へ上昇してほしい。
そのときのロジャーは今よりずーーーーっと強いと思います。


アガシ夫妻は一度転落しているからレジェンドと言われるような強さを身に着けてることだし。

No.1に固執しすぎることはないかもなぁと思いますね。
それがプレッシャーになって負けるんだったら、
一度その重荷を下ろしたほうが良いと思います。

連続週間No.1の記録も今1位だったはずだし。
とぎれとぎれのNo.1記録は、まだコナーズがいますけど。
十分なんじゃないかな。

TORONTO 初戦敗退(TT)
Masters Series ROGERS CUP
toronto, Canada
2nd Round
 Gilles Simon def. Roger Federer (1) 2-6, 7-5, 6-4

がーん!!!( ̄□ ̄|||
初戦敗退。
夢にも思わなかった結果が出てしまいました(T_T)
ひどい。ひどすぎる出来でした。



とにかくファーストが入らなかった。
Match Stats
1stサーブの入り:53%
1stサーブポイント奪取率:63%
2ndサーブポイント奪取率:49%
これを見てもサービスゲームが不利なのはわかるんですが、
一番ひどかったのが、UE(Unforced Error)51!

■1stセット
RF BKBK K K
GS     K K
1stサーブの入りは、58%・・・低い。

ラリーでは後半凡ミス連発でUE:10まで増やしていきましたが、
4thゲームまではほとんどミスもなくエースで決める展開。
5th、7thゲームと2ブレイクアップしているからか、簡単なミスを出して、
共にラブゲームキープされてます。
今思えば、このあたりから、相手に自信をつけさせてしまったと同時に、
ラリーでのフィーリングの悪さ、リズムの悪さがじわりじわりと出てきたのかも。

■2ndセット
RF  K K  BK K
GS K K KB  K KB

このセット、UE:19。これもまたひどく多い。
1stサーブの入り:48%
最悪、タイブレイクを望んでいたんですが、この確立じゃあまり期待はできなかったかも。
ラリーが互角になり、ロジャーからミスすることが多くなってきました。
0-40と3つのBP(Break Point)を握られると一度も挽回できてない。
サーブが入らないから、いつもの押し戻す力強さが感じられなかったです。

■3rdセット
RF  KBK  B
GS K   KB BKB

一時ブレイク合戦になりつつも、流れはなんとなくシモンにあったような気がします。
最後の最後まで1stサービスの確立はあがらず、ここというときにも入らず。
ラリーでもシモンの粘りに押されてミスを連発。

これでは応援しててもお手上げです(T_T)

TORONTO ようやくお目見え
昨日は、気分がよくなく(落ち込みやイライラがあり)何も予定が入ってないのにレッスンを休みました。
そして、一日中寝てました。
なんか、テニスしたい気分じゃなかったんです。
そういえば、今まで飲み会で休んだ振り替え分、ぜんぜん行ってないなぁ。
レッスン料もったいないけど、他のクラスだと気分悪くなりそうなので行けないです。

さて、そんな落ちているわいに気分がよくなる情報が。

ロジャーの笑顔。

最高の薬です。

あのWimby敗戦後、ロジャーやロジャーを応援している人は皆心が沈んでいたことでしょう。
でもこの笑顔がやはり皆さんの心を癒してくれるのではないでしょうか。
願わくは優勝して、ハードコートシーズン、良いスタートをきってほしいです。
2004、2006とトロントでは相性が良いのでそれも後押ししてくれるでしょう。

画像から、バンダナ、リストバンドが青紫色なので、おそらくウェアは
Nike Men's Fall London Polo(Concord Grape w/White)じゃないかなぁと思われます。

手首の使い方が独特ですよね。これが、相手にコースを読ませない術の一つといわれています。
