http://0rz.tw/3ORos AO官網消息 Stars rally for a common cause By Mike Steere Several of the world’s top tennis players will star in a special fundraising event to help raise money for survivors of Tuesday’s Haiti earthquake at Rod Laver Arena on Sunday. 數位球星周日將在Rod Laver球場為海地大地震進行特殊賑災募款。 Although it’s the eve of the Australian Open’s first round, world No. 1 Roger Federer has put aside thoughts of his preparation and brought together an entourage of fellow stars to play a special mixed-doubles event at the stadium to support Haiti. Top-ranked players Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Andy Roddick, Kim Clijsters, Serena Williams and Sam Stosur will also give up their last day of preparation to take to the court for the special event that was Federer’s brainchild. 雖然這是第一輪前夕，但費拔還是發起這個混雙明星賽來資助海地。小德、納豆、羅迪克、克媽、小威和Stosur也同樣放棄最後一天的準備來支持這項活動。 Federer said all proceeds will go to the Haiti earthquake victims, and he hopes to “fill the stadium”. “I had the idea we could do something to help Haiti after the tragic earthquake. So, I spoke to some other top players ... they said ‘yes, we should do something’,” Federer said. 費拔說所有捐款將作為協助地震的受難者，也希望球場能坐滿。 The action will start at Melbourne Park from 2pm Sunday, and tickets are available from Rod Laver Arena and Federation Square from 9am or at the gate. Entry is $10 for adults and free for children aged under 12. The play will be mixed doubles matches, with pairings of the star players. Federer had not decided on a partner late Saturday, but joked that he would “ choose wisely”. 活動將在星期天下午舉行，會是混雙比賽，費拔還沒選定他的搭檔，不過他說會"好好選"。 The Swiss star said he was happy to do whatever he could to assist. “I think it’s something as a tennis family we’re very happy to do. I know it’s on the eve of the first Grand Slam of the season, so it’s for some not so easy maybe mentally to separate, you know, a few things – but I think it’ s a great initiative. "雖然這是比賽前夕，但有些事情心理上是難以割捨的─但我想這是個好建議。"費拔說。 Federer encourage Melburnians to come down and support the players and the cause. “I’m happy we can go through with it and have some fun tomorrow. It may be a nice day also for families to come and see some top players play,” he said. 費拔呼籲大家踴躍參與。 The devastating earthquake which hit Haiti on Tuesday measured 7.0 on the Richter Scale and has left tens of thousands of people dead. The United Nations has launched an appeal for hundreds of millions of dollars to try to help around three million people in need. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.248.46
