更新了雅人桑就顧不了寶貝

寶貝在北京奪冠 

在上海四強敗給了費把拔

在巴黎大師賽前 寶貝自己也升格當上了把拔之後

在巴黎大師賽奪冠  算不算是沾了寶貝兒子的光呢

話說 寶貝現在家中有了小寶貝

milanhime目前只能勉強奉陪台灣時間晚上十點的場次

偏偏寶貝前兩場都是清晨四點出賽  這實在是太考驗球迷的死忠程度了

是說 Match 1 & Match 2  前者費時56分鐘  後者只花65分鐘

加在一起竟然只有兩個鐘頭又一分 真的很誇張

這麼摧毀型的賽事 讓milanhime都難免懷疑  這真的是ATP Final賽事嗎

對買票進場觀賞比賽的觀眾來說  相當不公平呀 

是說  milanhime其實有默默的設定了鬧鐘想起來看比賽的

依照過往的經驗 想說 訂個清晨五點的時間好了 

結果.... 比賽竟然已經結束  真的很爆笑

還好 milanhime也夠聰明 

每次都在溫暖的床上先打開手機看戰果

發現賽事結束之後 完全不用起身就繼續補眠

網球台雖然會重播  不過...這種秋風掃落葉的比賽 不看也罷

結果這週milanhime竟然看的都剛好是日本網球之星Uniqlo一哥 錦織圭的賽事

but 站在個人喜好上 

milanhime還是喜歡Uniqlo 二哥的衣服

Black is simple    Simple is best!

這週天天中午用餐時間都跟同事聊年終賽

大家的結論都是 Federer怎麼還這麼的神

直接省略寶貝  其實是因為沒人在清晨四點還清醒著看比賽呀

沒直接觀賞到寶貝的比賽 

看賽後報導對milanhime而言 就相當重要了

以下就是 data for reference

Group A Second match

Djokovic destroys Wawrinka in London

Ruthless world number one Novak Djokovic thrashed Stanislas Wawrinka 6-3 6-0 as he closed in on a stunning climax to his season at the ATP World Tour Finals on Wednesday.

The Serb responded to losing the first two games to steamroller the Swiss who was unfortunate to meet the defending champion at his imperious best.

Djokovic tops Group A with two wins and is now poised to qualify for the semi-finals.

Djokovic, who will clinch the year-end number one ranking should he beat Tomas Berdych in his final round-robin match, dialled in his A game to counter an aggressive start by Australian Open champion Wawrinka, winning 20 of 23 points in a five-game burst from 0-2 down in the first set.

Poor Wawrinka, a semi-finalist here last year, was run ragged at times by the power, precision and finesse of the 27-year-old Djokovic who racked up a 29th consecutive indoor victory with laser-guided forehand winner.

WRAPUP 1-Unstoppable Djokovic eyeing golden finale

For 15 minutes Novak Djokovic appeared to have a fight on his hands at the ATP World Tour Finals on Wednesday, then the Serb dialled up his A game and tore Stanislas Wawrinka to pieces.

Such was the perfection of his tennis for most of a 6-3 6-0 thrashing it is hard to argue against him crowning his year as world number one and with a hat-trick of titles at the ATP's year-ending showpiece.

The 27-year-old has conceded only five games so far at the cavernous O2 Arena yet the arithmetic of round-robin tennis means the seven-times grand slam champion is still not definitely assured of a semi-final spot.

Even more bizarrely, U.S. Open champion Marin Cilic, crushed 6-3 6-1 by Czech Tomas Berdych in the day's earlier Group A match could conceivably scrape through despite two heavy losses.

Just like his tennis Djokovic, who faces Berdych on Friday, cut straight through a question about whether or not he gets bogged down with the various scenarios.

"Nobody needs to tell me I need to win," he said. "That's what I try to do. That's why I'm here. I try to win every match I play on. That's the kind of approach I will have on Friday."

In actual fact Djokovic would go through to the semi-finals with a three-set defeat against Berdych who at least gave himself some hope by trouncing Cilic.

"I'm going to try to maybe win three, four games. That would be better than the last time," a smiling Berdych, beaten 6-2 6-0 by Djokovic in the recent Beijing final, told reporters.

Djokovic has played some epic matches against Swiss Wawrinka, most notably at the previous two Australian Opens, beating him in five in 2013 and then losing a fifth-set decider 9-7 this year in the quarter-finals.

World number four Wawrinka has been up and down since winning his first grand slam title in Melbourne, but he was flying at the start on Wednesday.

Striking the ball with ferocious power he broke Djokovic's opening service game and then held for a 2-0 lead.

The backlash was lethal, however.

Djokovic began exploring the corners with his surgical groundstrokes and Wawrinka was overwhelmed as he lost 20 out of 23 points in a five-game swing that snatched the match away.

Wawrinka held serve at 2-5 but Djokovic took the opening set in the next game and romped through the second set in 24 minutes, ending it when he drove a forehand down the line.

"I thought he played very well the first two games. But I wasn't frustrated. I kept my calm. After that, it was a really amazing performance," Djokovic said of his 29th consecutive indoor win that leaves him one victory away from sealing the year-end world number one ranking.

With eight matches down and seven remaining, the sell-out O2 crowds are yet to see a singles match go the distance.

"It's the tournament of the best eight players in the world, people, fans, the crowd expect to see a little bit more excitement and longer matches," Djokovic said.

"I think that's going to change as the tournament progresses."

是說本版的竹竿弟 好不容易的奪得2014美網冠軍

贏得直接來到年終倫敦決賽的捷徑門票

卻連著兩場賽事的成績都慘不忍睹 

年終賽事的氛圍 不是一般網球選手想參加就可以常常體會與經驗到的

這種年終盛宴型的大賽氛圍 其實是需要去適應而不是抱怨的

應該學學人家錦織圭

輸球也當成一個最佳經驗值 提昇加強自己的戰力才是重要的

Group A  First match

WRAPUP 1-Blink and you miss it as Djokovic, Wawrinka enjoy romps

Defending champion Djokovic can clinch the year-end number one ranking if he wins his next two Group A matches and few would bet against the Serb doing that.

As for Czech Berdych and Croat Cilic, they have a day to lick their wounds before meeting on Wednesday in a match each must win to keep their hopes of reaching the semi-finals alive.

Monday's singles were the most one-sided contests since the Tour Finals arrived in London in 2009, eclipsing Roger Federer's victory over Rafael Nadal in 2011 for the loss of three games.

In 2009 eight of the 12 round-robin matches went to three sets. None of the four singles matches so far have gone the distance and organisers and fans alike will be hoping for a rise in the excitement levels in the days to come.

PAINFUL VIEWING

Djokovic extended his winning streak indoors to 28 matches with a clinical demolition of U.S. Open champion Cilic, one of three debutants at the season-ender.

Cilic won the first five points but what happened next was painful viewing for fans of the 26-year-old, including the Croatia soccer team, in town for a friendly against Argentina, who arrived during the first set to cheer their man.

Djokovic picked Cilic apart with relish, claiming his 11th victory over him in 11 meetings and sending a reminder to the newest member of the grand slam club that the ruling class are not ready to roll over yet.

"It's been a great, great match," Djokovic, who barely broke sweat, said on court. "I haven't played here for 12 months, it's great to be back. It was a great performance.

"Marin as a U.S. Open winner has a lot of confidence, but I managed to neutralise his serve and get a lot of ball back in play and that was part of the tactic."

Cilic managed a wry smile afterwards when asked to explain where it had gone wrong.

"In some matches the score keeps running. You are sinking a lot. You try to find something. But whatever you try, it's not working. That's what I felt today," he said.

Wawrinka, who like Cilic also won his first grand slam this year in Australia, has been flitting in and out of form since beating Nadal in Melbourne and after losing in the quarter-finals of the U.S. Open had chalked up only one victory.

But his free-flowing game returned with a vengeance against the hapless Berdych whose timing was badly off.

話說 Andy Murray 身為地主國選手

為了贏得進入年終賽資格 真的在前兩個月超級的努力輾轉各地拼戰

最後終於拿到了參加倫敦年終賽的資格 精神可嘉

沒想到開賽第一場賽事就輸給了錦織圭

還好的是在第二場贏球 讓自己還是掌握著進入四強的資格

接下來這場 Federer vs Murray 將會是一場值得期待的重要賽事
