费德勒的20冠之旅--翻译：Green

---

Twenty Grand Slam titles! It's an achievement that has long been as unfathomable in men's tennis as it has been improbable. That is, until now. Since his first triumph on the lawns of Wimbledon in 2003, Roger Federer has been proving that anything is possible and the Swiss did just that once again on Sunday at Melbourne Park. Federer celebrated an unprecedented 20th major triumph, claiming the Australian Open title with victory over Marin Cilic.

20冠，这对于男子网坛来说，古往今来都是不可思议的成就。从2003年温布顿的首个草地冠军，至今，费德勒已经证明了“一切皆有可能”，今天这个星期天这个瑞士佬在墨尔本公园再一次证明了这点。通过战胜马丁.西里奇，费德勒获得了澳网冠军，同时也是个人第20个大满贯冠军。

让我们打开时光的拱门，回顾一下这个瑞士球王的20冠历程。。。。。。

(1) 2003 Wimbledon – d. Mark Philippoussis 7-6(5), 6-2, 7-6(3)

The year was 2003 and the men’s tennis landscape was in flux. Longtime standard bearer Pete Sampras retired the previous August after winning the US Open, and it wasn’t yet clear who would assume the reins and lead the ATP World Tour going forward. Fans did not have to wait long for an answer to become apparent: Roger Federer. It was apropos that it all began at The Championships. The Swiss’ reign over SW19 began on Day One, gliding over the pristinely cut lawns and launching his slender frame into his one-handed backhand.

The 21-year-old budding star had already proven himself on Centre Court with a stunning fourth-round upset over seven-time champion Sampras two years earlier. He would go one step further in 2003, brushing aside the competition at the All England Club. He relinquished just one set on his way to a first Grand Slam championship title match. His opponent: fellow Wimbledon final debutant Mark Philippoussis. Philippoussis had endured a much tougher path to the final and proved no match for Federer, who claimed his first taste of Wimbledon glory after just one hour and 56 minutes of play. It was only the beginning.

(1) 2003 温网冠军– 击败 马克.菲利普斯 比分：7-6(5), 6-2, 7-6(3)

2003年的男子网坛充满了变数，万众期待的皮特.桑普拉斯在赢得8月的美网公开赛后宣布退役，谁将是未来男子网坛的领军人物呢？我们并不清楚，也充满了期待。然而球迷并没有等待多久就找到了答案。罗杰.费德勒正是此时此刻通过一个冠军证明了自己，温网开赛第一天也就是费德勒在这个草地上统治的第一天，他在温布顿修剪齐整的草坪上的步法、单反的矫健身手格外的引人注目。

2年前，这个21岁的新星在中央球场就已经证明了自己--难以置信的通过4盘击败7届温网冠军桑普拉斯。2003年他想再前进一步，干掉全英俱乐部的所有对手。在这个通往首个大满贯之路上，他仅仅丢了一盘。他的对手是首次进入决赛的家伙--马克.菲利普斯，菲利普斯跌跌撞撞进入到了决赛，他哪里是费德勒的对手？仅打了1小时56分钟，费德勒就尝到了温网冠军的味道，而这，才刚刚开始。

(2) 2004 Australian Open – d. Marat Safin 7-6(3), 6-4, 6-2

A precocious young talent with nerves of steel, 22-year-old Federer did not have to wait long for his second success at the Grand Slam level. Just over six months later, on the other side of the world, the Basel native lifted the Norman Brookes Challenge Cup for the first time. Federer was taken to four sets in back-to-back matches by Lleyton Hewitt and David Nalbandian to reach the semi-finals, before turning on the style against Juan Carlos Ferrero to book a final meeting with Russia’s Marat Safin.

An in-form Safin did well to upset top seed Andy Roddick and Andre Agassi in five sets en route to the final, however, Federer once again showed his class on the grandest of stages. He would clinch the title after two hours and 15 minutes, as a Safin forehand flew beyond the baseline. As a result of winning the tournament, Federer became World No. 1 for the first time in his career. And he would remain at the pinnacle for years to come. It was a position he would hold for a record of 237 weeks, until 18 August 2008.

(2) 2004 澳网冠军–击败马拉特.萨芬 7-6(3), 6-4, 6-2

这个少年天才-22岁的费德勒，并没有等多久就再一次尝到了大满贯冠军的滋味，仅仅过了6个月，在地球的另一端，这个出生于瑞士巴塞尔的年轻人再一次举起了诺曼.布鲁克.挑战者杯（即男子澳网冠军）。这次费德勒分别战胜了莱顿.休伊特和大卫.纳尔班尼安，都是打了4盘，进入到半决赛，之后通过华丽的进攻干掉了胡安.卡洛斯，挺近到了决赛，对手是俄罗斯人马拉特.萨芬 。

萨芬的状态非常好，在晋级之路上他分别干掉了一号种子安迪.罗迪克和安德烈.阿加西（5盘），然而，费德勒再一次在这个大满贯的舞台上秀了一下他绝佳的球技，随着萨芬的一记正手球出界，费德勒花了2小时15分钟就锁定了胜局。这个冠军第一次把费德勒送到了世界第一的宝座，多年之后他还将继续保持着世界第一，令人惊讶的是，这个世界第一的宝座他维持了一个237周的记录（PS:更加神奇的是他在数年之后还能再次夺回世界第一并再次刷新自己的记录！），一直到2008年的8月18号。

(3) 2004 Wimbledon – d. Andy Roddick 4-6, 7-5, 7-6(3), 6-4

Federer vs. Roddick in the Wimbledon final. It’s a phrase that conjures memories of epic encounters and it all got started on a brisk July afternoon in 2004. After a disappointing third-round loss to Gustavo Kuerten at Roland Garros, Federer cruised to his second Gerry Weber Open title in Halle and returned to the scene of his first Grand Slam triumph at the All England Club. Experiencing the role of defending Grand Slam champion for the first time, he dropped just one set – in the quarter-finals to former champion Lleyton Hewitt – en route to his second Wimbledon final.

Waiting for him there would be Andy Roddick. The big-serving American had just successfully defended his crown at The Queen’s Club, but faced a difficult test against his Swiss rival, having dropped five of their six previous meetings. The Wimbledon faithful were treated to a dream No. 1 vs. No. 2 championship clash and Roddick got off to a great start, becoming the first man to take a set off Federer in a Grand Slam final. But, ultimately, Federer would fight back, winning two tight sets before firing down a 12th ace out wide at championship point to lift the trophy and cement himself as the best player in the world.

(3) 2004温网冠军 击败安迪.罗迪克4-6, 7-5, 7-6(3), 6-4

2004年7月的一个凉爽午后。决赛，费德勒对阵罗迪克，这是一场多年后都让人回味的史诗般比赛，在罗兰.加洛斯，费德勒令人失望的三盘负于古斯塔沃.库尔滕后。之后，他携德国哈雷赛冠军（他的第二个哈雷赛冠军）重返全英俱乐部，而这一次他的身份第一次是--卫冕冠军。在这次卫冕之路上，他仅失一盘（在四分之一决算中对阵前冠军休伊特）。

在决赛中等待他的将是--罗迪克，这个发球机器刚刚在女王杯上卫冕成功，罗迪克面对的是一个特别难缠的瑞士人，此前6次交手负5次。温布顿球迷万众期待的世界第一对阵世界第二的梦幻比赛开始了，罗迪克开了一个好头，有幸成为了第一个在大满贯级别的比赛中从费德勒手里拿到1盘的家伙。当时，费德勒反击了，只见他火力全开，狂泄了12个ACE球，并通过第12个ACE球（同时也是赛点）夺得了冠军，同时巩固了他成为世界最佳球员。

(4) 2004 US Open – d. Lleyton Hewitt 6-0, 7-6(3), 6-0

Federer’s outstanding season would culminate with his first year-end No. 1 finish in the ATP Rankings. He secured the top spot with a third Grand Slam victory of the year at the US Open. Federer had never progressed beyond the Round of 16 when he entered Flushing Meadows in 2004, but made his way through to the last eight for the loss of just one set. In the quarter-finals, he met two-time champion Andre Agassi and the boisterous New York crowd would witness a thriller on Arthur Ashe Stadium. Agassi won four more points than Federer throughout the match, but fell to the World No. 1 in exactly three hours 6-3, 2-6, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3.

A convincing win over Tim Henman put Federer in his first US Open final where he would meet 2001 champion Lleyton Hewitt. Hewitt came into the final in scintillating form, winning all six of his previous matches in straight sets but had no answer for the brilliance of Federer in the championship. The Swiss has only registered four bagel (6-0) sets in his Grand Slam final career and two of them came against the Aussie in the 2004 US Open title match. Federer became the first player since Mats Wilander in 1988 to win three Grand Slam titles in one season, and also the first in the Open Era to triumph in his first four major finals.

"Not even in my wildest dreams would I have ever thought I would win the US Open," he said. "If you can handle New York, you can handle anything."

(4) 2004 美网– 击败莱顿.休伊特  6-0, 7-6(3), 6-0

本赛季费德勒的杰出表现似乎到了顶峰，他夺得了世界第一，在美网他需要通过获得 本年度的第三个大满贯来巩固他的地位。2004年在踏入法拉盛公园（美网赛场）前，费德勒以往还没打进过8强。这次他的成绩是进入8强仅丢一盘，他的四分之一决赛的对手则是两届美网冠军--安德烈.阿加西，喧闹的纽约球迷在阿瑟.阿什球场（美网中心球场）目睹了一场惊心动魄的比赛。全场比赛阿加西比费德勒总得分多了超过4分，但却以6-3, 2-6, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3负于世界第一，耗时正好3小时。

费德勒用一个让人信服的比赛干掉了蒂姆.亨曼，打进个人的首个美网决算，他的对手是2001年美网冠军休伊特。休伊特在美网前面的6场比赛中星光闪耀、一路过关斩将闯入决赛，但是在决赛里面对才华横溢的费德勒似乎无解，瑞士人在职业生涯中迄今为止共收获了6个大满贯赛事决赛的送蛋盘（即6:0），其中2个是拜2004年美网这个澳大利亚人所赐。同时费德勒也成为继马特.维兰特（在1988年创造的记录）之后首个在单赛季获得3个大满贯的球员，也是公开赛年代首个4个大满贯决赛就收获3个冠军的球员。

“我从未想过我会获得美网冠军，即使是在最疯狂的梦里面”，费德勒说到，“如果你拥有了纽约，你就拥有了一切”（似乎是句谚语）
