[分享] Race to Guangzhou 女單點評
SURVIVAL OF THE FINEST! – WOMEN’S SINGLES PREVIEW
One is the overwhelming Finals favourite; the second is among a few players to
have beaten the favourite this season and the third is last year’s Finals ru
nner-up who is yet to claim a title in 2018.
第一位勢不可擋，備受看好贏得總決賽；第二位是本季少數擊敗前者的選手之一；而第三
位則是去年總決賽的亞軍，仍在盼望今年的第一座冠軍。
（第一位看來是我們小戴啦，第二位應該是小拉，第三位就是收銀員辛度了）
These are but three of the intriguing Women’s Singles storylines at the upcom
ing HSBC BWF World Tour Finals 2018, with that category continuing to produce
compelling contenders and amazing matches which have fans glued to their scree
ns globally.
這就是今年世界巡迴賽總決賽女單賽場上其中最令人著迷的情節，女單項目更是不斷出現
強勁競爭者和一場場令人驚豔的對決，讓廣大球迷為此癡癡守候在螢幕前。
Queen of the world, Tai Tzu Ying, has savoured another outstanding season, lif
ting six World Tour titles and becoming the first women's solo player to surpa
ss the million-dollar mark in career earnings. Her all-court wizardry and usua
lly calm persona have combined to gift the Chinese Taipei star with the except
ional ability to canter away and crush opponents,to tough out close battles or
to conjure up brilliant comebacks – remember her resurrection from 16-20 dow
n versus Carolina Marin in the decider of their PERODUA Malaysia Masters 2018
semi-final?
世界球后戴資穎今年再次創下了輝煌的賽季，包攬六座世界巡迴賽冠軍並且成為了史上第
一位生涯總獎金突破百萬美元的女子單打球員。她在場上如魔法般的球技與冷靜特質，賦
予了她得以超越並壓倒對手、挺過比分接近的壓力和創造驚人逆轉的優異能力。還記得在
馬來西亞大師賽準決賽的決勝局中，面對馬琳以20比16的領先即將拿下比賽時，戴資穎演
出的大逆轉嗎？
（還提到馬琳被逆轉的慘案真的是很派XD）
The 24-year-old with the angelic smile will bring all this – plus two Finals
championships in the last four years – to Tianhe Gymnasium
in Guangzhou, China, as she seeks the exclamation mark to another stellar year
.
這位笑容如天使一般的24歲選手——近四年兩次總決賽冠軍——將會把所有精彩表現帶到
廣州的天河體育館，同時她將尋求奪冠，以驚嘆號為她表現依然十分優異的一年作結。
“This is one of the tournaments that I have targeted to win,”said Tai who wi
ll take nothing for granted having perished in the round-robin stage at last y
ear’s Finals.
「其實它（廣州世巡賽總決賽）是我算在裡面的其中一個比賽啦！」戴資穎說。她將不會
視任何成果為理所當然，因為她在去年的總決賽中在小組循環賽階段便出局。
“I will have to play at my best in every match…(because) from the first matc
h of a World Tour Finals, you meet someone ranked in the top eight or ten, so
it’s much tougher. If I lose a group match, and elimination is decided by poi
nts, there is a possibility that I might not progress to the knockout stage.”
「總決賽可能第一場大概就是（排名）前八、前十的會碰在一起，所以相對會比較辛苦吧
，每一場都要很盡力。如果不小心輸了一場然後又互咬的話，其實也蠻難算的，也有可能
就會沒有進（淘汰賽）。」
Depending on the draw, Tai could face an early test from the pride of Thailand
, Ratchanok Intanon, who equals her in skills and unpredictability. The latter
prevailed in their compelling Malaysia Masters finale in January and her rare
ability to unsettle Tai will again be a priceless weapon should these two pla
yers clash.
視抽籤結果而定，戴資穎可能提前面對泰國之光Ratchanok Intanon（拉查諾・依瑟儂）
，一位在球技與出球的不可預測性之上與她不相上下的選手。後者在一月大馬大師賽決賽
、兩人的頂尖對決中勝出，依瑟儂足以威脅戴資穎的能力在兩人的競爭將會是非常珍貴的
武器。
“I am very comfortable playing against Tai, maybe because we have similar sty
les. I realise that sometimes she is under pressure and uncertain about her sh
ots,” noted 23-year-old Intanon.
「我面對戴資穎有不錯的優勢，也許是因為我們球風類似。我發現有時她受迫時會對出球
產生遲疑。」23歲的依瑟儂指出。
“She is a strong opponent and our matches are not easy. I have to keep runnin
g and moving but I am not afraid.”
「她是很強的對手，我們之間的比賽一向不會打得太輕鬆。我必須要不斷跑動但我不會畏
懼。」
As for the Finals, the 2013 World champion would dearly love to triumph in the
season-ender, thereby achieving “one of my career goals”.
說到年終總決賽，2013年的世錦賽冠軍依瑟儂非常渴望贏得今年賽季的最終戰，並由此達
成「我的生涯目標之一」。
“Women’s Singles is very tough. It not just the top eight – all the players
are more experienced. My preparation is going well and I will have to focus o
n every shot and create the opportunity for me to win.”
「女單項目競爭非常激烈，不只是排名前八的選手，所有選手都經驗更豐富。我的準備進
行得不錯，我必須每一球都保持專注並製造贏球的機會。」
Over in India, Pusarla V Sindhu is leaving enough space in her luggage for the
HSBC BWF World Tour Finals Trophy. Bitterly disappointed to lose to Akane Yam
aguchi in the title-decider at last season’s Finals, the Olympic silver medal
list is determined not to falter this time around.
至於來自印度的Pusarla V. Sindhu仍在期盼今年的第一個世界巡迴賽冠軍。去年總決賽
在決賽的第三局敗給山口茜、屈居亞軍的奧運銀牌得主今年已經下定決心，絕不畏縮。
“My preparation for the Finals has been going well. All the top players are i
n good form so I expect a tough tournament and I am ready. I have been in some
big finals this year – the World Championships, Asian Games, etc. -but I hav
en’t won the titles,” said 23-year-old Pusarla candidly.
「我為總決賽進行的準備很順利。所有的頂尖選手狀態都很好，所以我預計會打得很辛苦
但我已經準備好了。今年我打進了一些大賽的決賽——世錦賽、亞運等等——但我沒有贏
得冠軍。」23歲的辛度直率地說。
“So, I have been trying to figure out my mistakes and how to rectify them.”
「所以我一直試著搞懂自己犯的錯誤與如何改正。」
Meanwhile, Japan poses a massive threat in the form of defending Finals champi
on Yamaguchi – who outlasted Pusarla in three riveting games a year ago – an
d her teammate, Nozomi Okuhara, who clinched the coveted crown in 2015. The tw
o qualified third and second respectively and are expected to be major factors
when play starts on 12 December. Having been thwarted by Tai on countless occ
asions, including in this year’s All England Sunday showdown, Yamaguchi will
be buoyed by at last finding a way past her arch-rival in the
YONEX French Open 2018 final, albeit that Tai had won in Denmark on the previo
us weekend.
同時，來自日本的衛冕冠軍山口茜來勢洶洶，她在一年前以驚人的意志力與體力戰勝了辛
度，她的隊友奥原希望也在2015年奪得這座令各方爭搶不休的冠軍。這兩位選手分別取得
第二、第三種子的資格，並在12月12日開始的比賽中被視為影響戰局的重要人物。曾在無
數次交鋒（包括今年全英決賽）中敗給戴資穎的山口茜，成功在今年的法國公開賽決賽突
破她的這位首要對手，儘管戴資穎前一週才在丹麥奪冠。
Should the remaining three qualifiers be drawn together, it would present an i
nteresting spectacle for fans as Chinese player, Chen Yufei, would face Chines
e transplant, Beiwen Zhang, and Canada’s Michelle Li (featured image) who was
born in Hong Kong. Competing under the USA banner, Zhang, 28, was the last qu
alifier to be confirmed following the withdrawal of China’s He Bingjiao. Both
Zhang and 27-year-old Li have earned reputations for upsetting the big guns a
nd will be aiming to enhance their credentials on their Finals debuts.
如果其他三位參賽者經抽籤後分在同一組，將會是非常有趣的景象，中國選手陳雨菲將會
對上移居美國的華裔選手張蓓雯，以及生於香港、代表加拿大的李文珊。現年28歲、代表
美國出戰的張蓓雯，是在中國選手何冰嬌確定放棄參賽之後的最後一位獲選參賽選手。張
蓓雯和李文珊都以擊敗頂尖好手聞名，兩人也準備在初次登上的年終賽舞台上證明自己的
實力。
Spoilt by China’s past dominance in this category, spectators will be looking
to Chen to carry the nation’s expectations. The 20-year-old is among the mos
t exciting prospects to have emerged in Women’s Singles in the past two years
, backing up last year’s World Championship bronze medal by
capturing the Fuzhou China Open 2018 title as well as being runner-up in the B
LIBLI Indonesia Open 2018 and the VICTOR China Open 2018.
回顧過去中國在女單項目的輝煌獨霸歷史，球迷們會期待陳雨菲背負起國家的期待。這位
20歲的選手，是近兩年來女單項目中眾多讓人興奮的後起之秀的其中一位，她以福州中國
公開賽冠軍、印尼公開賽亞軍、中國公開賽亞軍證明了自己在去年取得世錦賽銅牌的實力
。
Last season’s BWF Most Promising Player of the Year, Chen has already vaulted
to No.3 in the world. Now, the question is can she cement her status among th
e elite by seizing the biggest honour of her blossoming career?
去年獲選為年度最令人期待的選手，陳雨菲已經躍升到世界排名的第三位。她是否能以奪
得生涯的最大榮耀，在眾多好手中鞏固自己的地位？
Team China will be hoping she can.
中國希望她可以做到。
