Novak Djokovic became the world's third-ranked tennis player on July 9, 2007.
For the better part of the next four years he was the sport's top doormat.
First Roger Federer and then Rafa Nadal would regularly wipe their feet on
him en route to major titles; nine times they stomped him in Grand Slam
events.

小囧在2007年7月9日成為世界排名第三的網球選手。在接下來的四年中，小囧成了頂尖
選手們的踏腳石: Federer及Nadal相繼在奪下大滿貫的路上一次又一次地擊敗小囧，總計
費納雙雄在大滿貫中九次將小囧擊退。

Djokovic's renowned sense of humor — he's a great mimic of his fellow pros —
must have helped him. But while he yukked it up, he also upped his training
regimen and refined his exquisite baseline shotmaking. No one has a more
lethal backhand down the line. He got mentally tougher too. Last year
Djokovic reached No. 1 in dominating fashion, winning at the Australian Open,
Wimbledon and the U.S. Open and dispatching both nemeses. He started 2012 by
beating Nadal in a five-set, nearly six-hour epic for the Australian title.
"It's the result of the really hard work that I put into it," says Djokovic,
24, now a national hero in his native Serbia.

小囧以(很囧的)幽默感而廣為人知，唯妙唯肖的模仿其他選手想必給了他一些助益。但在
小囧讓大家捧腹大笑的同時，他也改善了食物療法(應該是指gluten-free的方式)，並且
更加精進底線的抽球。沒有人可以擊出更致命的反拍直線。小囧(以前根本是死小孩亂打)
的心理素質也有所提升。去年小囧以一統江山的氣勢攻上球王寶座，贏下澳網、溫布頓及
美網，並對費納雙雄上演(小囧王子)復仇記。

小囧在(世界末日的)2012首場大滿貫決賽打(演)了近六小時、在史詩般的五盤大戰中擊敗
Nadal拿下澳網冠軍。「這是我非常努力後得到的結果。」24歲的小囧說。如今他已是塞
爾維亞的國家英雄。

Djokovic's tennis hero is Pete Sampras, a serve-and-volley maestro who spent
a record 286 weeks as top gun. Djokovic recognizes that the game today is
different — more baseline power and speed, less touch. And with Nadal and
Federer hounding him, staying No. 1 will be difficult. But having worked for
years to get there, he'll enjoy every moment of it.

小囧的偶像是山普拉斯，山大王是位發球上網的大師，山大王保持世界球王在位紀錄，共
待了286週。小囧認為現今的網球已不同以往，在底線需要更強大的力量及更快的速度。

當費納雙雄緊追不捨時，保住球王(以及搞笑界翹楚)將會十分困難。但小囧花了多年時間
才成為世界第一，他將會享受(希望可以久一點的)身為球王的每一刻。
