场地之战(英语:Battle of Surfaces),也叫“星球对碰”,是一场造型奇特的男子网球表演赛,2007年在西班牙马略卡岛举行,由当时世界最佳网球两大天王费德勒和纳达尔联手奉献。
奇特造型
[编辑]此创意源于:网球赛事的3种场地(草地、硬地、红土),费德勒是草地至尊,纳达尔是红土之王,当时的费德勒正优雅持续草地48场连胜,纳达尔则持续燃烧红土72场连胜(后分别定格于草地65连胜、红土81连胜,均为网球史上单种场地之最)。[1]
突发奇想:如果一块网球场地是半草地半红土,且让两位至尊互相来到对方最擅长的领地里,“红土里的草地之神vs.草地里的红土之神”的星球火花碰碰的结果是。。?
于是赛事主办者花费163万美元与19天准备,地点则定在纳达尔的故乡及长居地西班牙马略卡岛。[2]
比赛之前,费德勒表示:
“ | 我们很期待这个特别的场地,当我们分别主宰一种场地,这个想法确实吸引到我。拉法已经在红土系列赛有72场连续胜利,而我在从草地上48场连续胜利还未被打败,在这个特别混合场地上,看谁能选择较好的战术是很有趣的,这将是有趣的发现,人们讨论有关那场比赛有相当一段时间。现在,很快来了,我喜欢这样一座体育场,对了 - 那是拉法的家,位于马略卡岛。毕竟,他有去过巴塞尔,现在我有机会在他那儿玩一次。 | ” |
原文 :
“ | We are both looking forward to this absolutely new event. The idea really appeals to me as we both dominate one of the surfaces. Rafa holds the record of 72 victories in series on clay and I have not been defeated on grass since 48 matches. It'll be fun to find out what it's like to play on a court with mixed surfaces! And it ought to be interesting to see who chooses the better tactic. People have been talking about this event for quite a while. Now it's coming up pretty soon already and I like the fact that the stadium - which is very nice, by the way - is located on Majorca, Rafa's home. He has been to Basel, after all, and now I've got the opportunity to play at his place for once.[3] | ” |
