費德勒澳網封王 斬獲第20個大滿貫頭銜

Roger Federer has never been one to hide his eMotions and the 36-year-old Swiss was in floods of tears on Sunday after becoming the first man in history to win 20 Grand Slam titles. At the presentation ceremony Federer struggled to get through his speech after beating Marin Cilic to win the Australian Open for the sixth time.

羅傑-費德勒從不掩飾自己的情緒。上週日，當這位36歲的瑞士網壇名將成爲史上首位收穫20個大滿貫頭銜的選手時喜極而泣。在頒獎典禮上，費德勒哽咽着說完獲獎感言。此前的比賽中，費德勒擊敗馬林-西里奇，第六次摘得澳網男單桂冠。

Federer famously broke down in tears here after losing to Rafael Nadal in the 2009 final – his only defeat in his record seven appearances in the final - and was again overcome by emotion here.

在2009年的澳網男單決賽中，費德勒惜敗拉斐爾-納達爾，不禁潸然淚下，這也是他七次出戰澳網男單決賽中的唯一一次落敗。這次，費德勒又激動落淚了。

“Of course winning is an absolute dream come true,” Federer said as he addressed the crowd while holding his trophy. “The fairytale continues for me after the great year I had last year. It’s incredible.”

捧得獎盃後，費德勒在致辭中對觀衆說：“誠然，獲勝絕對是美夢成真。在歷經去年的種種之後，童話繼續在我身上上演。這太不可思議了。”

At that point Federer had to stop as the tears welled up. “We’ve had a wonderful time here in Australia,” Federer said. “We’ve had the best time as a family and a team.”

這時費德勒的眼淚已如泉涌，他不得不停下來。他說：“我們在澳大利亞打了一場漂亮仗，家人和團隊都度過了最愉快的時光。”

Still struggling to get out his words, Federer thanked the Australian country and people for their hospitality, particularly the fans at this tournament. “This is tough,” Federer said at the end before thanking his team. “I love you guys. Thank you.”

這時他已經哽咽得說不出話。他感謝了澳大利亞和人民的熱情款待，特別是賽場上的粉絲。他在感謝自己的團隊之前說：“這太艱難了。我愛你們，謝謝。”

A remarkable standing ovation followed as the whole stadium rose to applaud Federer for several minutes while the big screens showed the tears rolling down his face. The watching Rod Laver was among those who got out their phones to record the occasion.

當大屏幕上顯示出費德勒的兩行淚珠滾落臉頰，全體觀衆起立鼓掌長達數分鐘。很多觀衆拿出手機拍下了這激動人心的時刻，前去觀戰的羅德-拉沃也在其中。

At 36 years and 173 days Federer is the oldest male winner of a Grand Slam title since Ken Rosewall won here in 1972 at the age of 37 years and 62 days.

36歲173天的費德勒成爲仍在賽場上的年齡最大的一位網球大滿貫男單選手。此前這一紀錄的保持者是肯-羅斯維爾（1982年退役），他在1972年以37歲62天的年齡拿到大滿貫冠軍。

While Nadal and Federer will remain at No 1 and No 2 in Monday's updated world rankings list, Cilic will climb to a career-high position at No 3.

在本週一更新的世界男子網球選手排名中，納達爾和費德勒仍將佔據前兩位。而西里奇將升至第三位，這也是他職業生涯的最佳紀錄。

Cilic had lost eight of his nine previous meetings with Federer, including last summer’s Wimbledon final, when the 29-year-old Croatian was reduced to tears after a painful foot blister scuppered his chances.

西里奇在與費德勒此前的九次交鋒中輸掉了八次，包括去年夏天的溫布爾登網球公開賽男單決賽。當時這位29歲的克羅地亞選手腳上起泡疼痛難忍，最終落敗而傷心流淚。
