Day trip to Madrid

I spent yesterday in Madrid, taking part in the launch of this year’s
tournament. It was a superbly organized event and I enjoyed being involved.

昨天我在馬德里，參與今年比賽的記者會。

I had a very informal hit with Manolo Santana, the tournament director and
legend of Spanish tennis, on a mini-court. He’s a lovely man and I always
enjoy meeting him. He was wearing a suit and I was in a dress, so it wasn’t
the most intense hit!

和Manolo Santana有一場非正式擊球。

Afterwards there was a press conference and some interviews. It all took part
at Mutua Tower, the headquarters of the tournament’s title sponsor. It’s a
very new building, 50 storeys high. It offers incredible views of the city
and it was a beautiful, clear and sunny day so we enjoyed looking across
Madrid.

在贊助商的總部做訪問。

I spoke a little about the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour’s Heroes Among Us
initiative, which I think is a really good idea, and the winner will be
invited to visit Madrid. On the other hand, the tournament organizers
announced some of the improvements that spectators can look forward to at
this year’s tournament, including a fanzone and, overall, a big investment
in technology.

WTA辦活動讓獲勝者到馬德里看比賽。然後一些其他官網更新。

They told me about another innovation but made me promise not to tell anyone,
because they are keeping it a secret for now. I have to say it’s one of the
coolest innovations I have heard about in tennis in a long time. I think they
’ll announce it quite soon.

Ana說有其他活動，不過得保密。

Of course, before I go to Madrid I have important tournaments in Stuttgart
and Rome. I am feeling positive about my training on clay. It’s my favourite
surface and I am hoping I can continue the improvements I made in Miami,
where I played some of my best tennis for a while against Radwanska.

在馬德里之前還有司徒加特跟羅馬。希望有好表現。

The Stuttgart event is just two weeks away and I am working hard on my
fitness and tennis with Damian and Heinz. In the meantime, I would like to
thank everyone who has sent me messages of support lately. It’s always so
nice to receive them.

兩個禮拜後就是馬德里。最後謝謝球迷。

Love
Ana
