Richard Williams Impressed with Dinara 'Sanowa, or Whatever Her Name Is'

Intentionally or not, Richard Williams backed up the argument his daughter
Serena Williams made earlier this year about the curious ranking of Dinara
Safina atop the WTA. Earlier this year, Serena Williams dismissed the
legitimacy of Safina's ranking since she has never won a Grand Slam (much the
same way Jelena Jankovic was ranked no. 1 during last year's U.S. Open
despite being Slamless).
Richard Williams提起了她女兒Serena在今年稍早提起的排名爭議
Safina雖然身為世界第一 但從來沒有贏過大滿貫 (跟Jankovic一樣)

It all started when I asked Richard in the player's lounge yesterday about
what he thought of the field.
這個話題開始於昨天我問他對於現今女網有什麼看法

"I think Victoria Azarenka is no one to look over, that girl can play some
tennis!" he said. "Also that other girl, you know, the one who is no. 1..."
"我認為Victoria Azarenka值得被注意 他打的很好!
還有另外一個女孩 那個世界第一....."

Safina, I said.
我說他叫Safina

"Yes, Safina! She's not no. 1 because of a mistake. I don't care what anyone
says about her."
"喔對 Safina! 他不是因為任何錯誤才當上世界第一 我不在乎其他人怎麼說他"

"I think she's playing great tennis," he continued. "I think she deserves to
be no. 1. I'll tell ya something else, no one wants to play Sanowa, or
whatever her name is. That girl hits that ball."
"我覺得他打的非常好 我認為他值得世界第一的排名
我甚至還會說沒有任何人想對上Sanowa..還是叫...管她叫什麼 就是那個女孩"

Richard Williams likes to play games with the press, and we wouldn't put it
past him to purposefully forget her name--particularly when the lesser known
Victoria Azarenka rolls right off his tongue--but maybe Safina can go ahead
and win a Slam and put this one to bed once and for all.
Richard Williams很喜歡跟媒體玩遊戲 也許他是故意忘記Safina的名字的
因為他連知名度比較低的Azarenka都可以正確的講出來
或許Safina可以試著拿下一個大滿貫讓這個話題永遠停止
