Basel to rename venue as Roger Federer Arena - 羅傑·費德勒 Federer

BASEL, Switzerland (AP)—Roger Federer’s birthplace will rename its
international tennis venue for its most famous sporting son.

Basel sports director Peter Howald said on Monday that St. Jakobshalle
will be called Roger Federer Arena following a planned renovation.

Howald said the city had discussed ways of honoring the new French Open
champion, who completed a career Grand Slam and tied Pete Sampras’
record of 14 major singles titles with his victory Sunday at Roland
Garros.

Federer is a three-time defending champion of the Swiss Indoors tournament
at St. Jakobshalle. He is scheduled to defend his title Nov. 2-8.


簡單來說，Basel的球場將從原本的St. Jakobshalle改名為Roger Federer Arena，
這個球場也就是每年辦瑞士室內公開賽的地方，Roger是三屆衛冕衛冕冠軍。

所以今年，我們可能會看到Roger Federer在Roger Federer Arena打球!
