Tai Tzu Ying avenged her All England loss to Chen Yufei in Malaysia.
戴資穎在大馬復仇全英賽上輸掉的對手陳雨菲
It was back to routine business for Tai Tzu Ying with titles on successive
weekends of April on the HSBC BWF World Tour. There are over three months to
go for the TOTAL BWF World Championships 2019, but early season form holds
good portents for the world No.1, who has yet to win a medal at the Worlds.
四月的小戴似乎終於回到大家熟悉的她 離2019世錦賽剩下三個月
儘管今年初的表現一度讓人懷疑這位世界第一是否還能贏下未拿到過的世錦賽獎牌
The last season, during which she demonstrated once again her virtuoso
qualities, ended anti-climactically with an early exit at the HSBC BWF World
Tour Finals. A quarterfinal loss at the Malaysia Masters saw her 2019 season
begin on a bumpy note, before her racket began to talk at the All England.
雖然小戴去年打得很讚 但是在年終賽反高潮式的傷退 年初大馬賽八強落馬
讓她的開季顯得有些崎嶇 不過在全英賽上 小戴手上的球拍終於又開始說話了
She offered no excuses after her defeat to Chen Yufei in the All England
final – although she had a niggle in her playing arm.
在全英賽上輸給陳雨菲後 戴資穎沒有說任何藉口──雖然她右手有小恙 （這裡作者用
了 niggle 這個字 我不是很確定作者的意思）
April saw her back to her best. Tai cut apart her two vanquishers this season
– Ratchanok Intanon and Chen Yufei – on her way to the Malaysia Open final,
where Akane Yamaguchi was also outclassed in straight games.
今年四月戴資穎又回到了她的最佳狀態，
大馬賽連斬兩位本季贏過她的選手（小拉、大帝）進入決賽
又在決賽上賞了山口茜直落二
The following week, in Singapore, Yamaguchi fell again in an unusual match;
her compatriot Nozomi Okuhara proved no match for Tai’s guile in the final.
而隔週的新加坡公開賽 山口在一場不尋常的比賽中再度敗陣
而山口的同胞奧原 在決賽中顯然也不是戴氏騙局的對手
The last two matches in Singapore showed two facets of Tai’s on-court
persona. Against Yamaguchi she was almost lackadaisical until she was four
match points down; and then everything seemed to change. Yamaguchi was left
chasing apparitions around the court as her maverick opponent teased and
tormented the indefatigable Japanese.
新加坡站的最後兩場比賽顯示出了小戴的兩個不同面向
在山口戰中 戴在面對四個賽末點之前 看起來簡直是無精打采
接著整個賽局竟豬羊變色
總是奔跑不懈的和製小馬達在她不尋常的對手的玩弄與折磨中不停追著球跑
The final saw a different Tai Tzu Ying, more businesslike, more ruthless, and
with almost no hint of the playfulness that is her hallmark. Nozomi Okuhara
was singed by her laser-like focus, 21-19 21-15.
而決賽中顯現出來的又是另一個不同面貌的戴資穎
更有效率 更無情 幾乎沒有出現她特色的浪
奧原希望被精銳專注的戴資穎以 21-19 21-15 解決

Tai achieved a hat-trick of wins at the Malaysia Open.
小戴在馬來西亞公開賽上完成她的帽子戲法（三連霸）
The elements on which Tai’s game is based – deception, variety,
unbelievable angles –elicits gasps; so does her apparent indifference to
established practices. In an age when players pride themselves on the
zealousness of their pre-match routines and ‘homework’ – Tai nonchalantly
revealed that she doesn’t even watch videos of her own game.
戴的比賽總是伴隨著假動作、多彩多姿的擊球與不可思議的角度 每每讓觀眾驚嘆出聲
而同樣讓人驚訝的是：戴資穎顯然不會事先對比賽做特別的預習 （？）
在這個有許多熱衷於事前研究做功課的選手的時代
戴資穎卻不在意地顯示自己甚至不看自己的比賽影片
No videos of opponents either?
所以也不看對手的影片嗎？
Casual shrug. “No, I don’t need to,” she said, after the Singapore Open
final.
新加坡決賽後（受訪的）小戴一聳肩：「不，我不用看。」
Not for her the importance of recollecting match details, reflecting over
turning points or tactical hits and misses. Having beaten Yamaguchi in the
semifinals with a memorable come-from-behind effort, she was surprised when
asked about the five match points she’d saved.
她不會特別去在意比賽的細節、關鍵分或是技術上的成功與失敗。
在一場值得銘記的四強戰中大逆轉擊敗山口茜，當被問及她那五個救下的賽末點時：
“I forgot all about it,” she laughed. “Did I really save five match points?
”
「我忘記了。」她笑答：「我真的救了五個賽末點嗎？」

Precise and powerful when on song.
不浪的時候，精準而有力
It was much the same at the World Championships in 2015, when, not long after
blowing six match points against Lindaweni Fanetri in the quarterfinals, she
came away with a smile. The loss was already behind her, never mind that she
was within one winning rally of a World Championships medal.
這情況和她2015年世錦八強賽拿到6個賽末點（對手是印尼的Lindaweni）卻搞砸之後一樣
，戴資穎微笑著離開賽場。
輸贏已被她拋在腦後，渾不在意只要再贏一分就能拿到世錦獎牌。
She has grown as a player since then; she is fitter, more precise, and
harder-working on court now. Can she gain in Basel what she couldn’t in
London 2012, Guangzhou 2013, Copenhagen 2014, Jakarta 2015, Rio 2016 or
Nanjing 2018 – a Major Event medal?
在那場比賽後，戴資穎已經成長了很多。她更為精壯、更精準、在球場上更為刻苦勤奮
今年在巴賽爾（世錦賽舉辦地），她能不能完成未竟之業──
取得2012倫敦、2013廣州、2014哥本哈根、2015雅加達、2016里約或2018南京都沒拿到的
一面世界大賽的獎牌呢？
