Stronger.aspx

Gonzo多災多難的一年，困擾了整季的膝蓋問題仍舊持續著，讓他不得不退出即將到來的
溫布頓，連續35個大滿貫未缺席也到此停止。

"There are good and bad moments. Some way or another I haven't felt good on
court. The feeling is very important and the past weeks it hasn't been like I
wanted it, but I have no doubt it will go back to the way I've always liked
it to be", said an optimistic Gonzalez, who will recover back home in
Santiago while he waits for the doctor's advice. He has already withdrawn
from Wimbledon and he could yet miss the Davis Cup quarter-final tie against
Czech Republic if he his recovery takes two months.

復原時間預計要兩個月，所以DC可能也不能參加。

他也在twitter上澄清關於退休的謠言，仍有許多目標期待去達成，目前不會有這個念頭。

What made the tendinitis so bad?
I had calcification in both knees. When one hurts you try to compensate with
the other. With good work, rest and rehab I will be better.

Some time ago you said that you learned to live with the pain.
I've had it since the 2002 Australian Open...

So you have dealt with it almost for your whole career?
It's been coming and going. I've had good and bad moments. I had a very bad
moment in 2003, after that I could recover well but last year at Wimbledon it
started all over again and hasn't stopped since then.

After the defeat in the Roland Garros second round, you will lose important
points at the South African Airways 2010 ATP Rankings. How will you deal with
that?
I prefer to have a bad ranking and be healthy, rather than get to a ranking
that would be tough to maintain without being in optimum physical condition.

With your absence at Wimbledon you will bring to an end a run of 35
successive Grand Slam appearances.
Some time ago I realised I have played all the Grand Slams since 2002. I
thought about how good it was and I was lucky not to be injured. No I'll have
to miss one. I hope it's the only one so I can play a lot more.

Next month you will turn 30, you suffer a chronic injury, but you told your
Twitter fans that you're not thinking about retirement.
Twitter has been very helpful; it's my main source for keeping in touch with
people. Sometimes the media needs to sell more so they publish information
about a possible retirement. But that wasn't true. Retirement is not in my
head. I still have a lot of goals on my career and I have fun playing. I
can't imagine my life without competitive tennis. Retirement is not an issue.
They published that without asking me so that bothered me. Thank God there's
Twitter so I could tell people that wasn't true.

Twitter and your official web site have become a habit now that you have more
free time.
Social networking is very important. People want and need communication.
Everyone is connected by their mobile phones, chat and social networks.
Tennis fans feel closer because of that. When you're constantly talking about
what's going on, what you think, people like that. It's a spontaneous
communication.

How long will your recovery take?
The first thing is to feel better, recover from the injuries. The rest will
come by itself. I can't make the mistake of playing 25 tournaments. I've
always played few tournaments. The important thing is to take it easy and
take my rest time seriously; that has always been important in my career.

What's the positive side of being without competition?
The positive thing is that I will have a lot of energy when I come back. I
will appreciate more what I have achieved in this sport. When you're out you
feel the passion for the game more. I've also done some things that I miss.
That gives you energy to keep on playing.
