Financial crisis forces Serena to cut back on glam
Sat Jan 17, 2009 1:53am GMT
By Greg Stutchbury
MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Even multi-millionaire athletes are not immune to the
global financial crisis, with Serena Williams admitting she was cutting back
her spending on designer handbags and glitzy jewelry.
即使是像Serena Williams這樣身價數百萬美金的運動員也不能免除經濟危機的壓力
他承認他正在省錢 不去買名牌手提包或是炫目的珠寶
"My bag I'm carrying now is from American Apparel, it's only like $12,''
a laughing Williams told reporters at a news conference ahead of the
Australian Open on Saturday.
"我現在帶的包包是American Apparel的 才大概12塊左右"
Serena笑著在記者會上說
"I really cut back, you know. I don't know if it's because it's everywhere in
the media, you know, the financial, global, but it's low tide for me. I'm not
out there buying crazy things," added the 27-year-old, who has earned almost
$22 million in career prize money and reportedly makes close to $10 million a
year in endorsements.
"我真的得節省 也許是因為媒體都在報導 你知道 全球經濟危機
但這對我不是什麼大風浪 我不會出去買些瘋狂的東西"
他光獎金就賺了2200萬美金 根據報導 他每年還有1000萬的贊助收入
"You can't keep your money in the banks either, but I'm just trying to earn
the little interest that I can.
"你也不能安心的把錢都放在銀行 但我也只是想賺點小小的利息而已"
Not that the second seed for the year's first grand slam is totally cutting
off her discretionary spending on luxuries -- she downloads digital music,
television shows and movies to her computer to help relax during tournaments.
除了減少任意的花費在奢侈品上 他也會下載音樂.電視節目.電影
來讓他在比賽期間放鬆心情
"I love to watch to TV," she said. "I'm terrible for the whole music and
movie industry because I download movies and television shows.
"我愛看電視 我超愛音樂跟電影的 我會下載電影還有那些電視秀"
"I'm obsessed with 'Desperate Housewives' and can't wait for Monday to
download the next episode."
"我現在超期待星期一趕快去下載新的Desperate Housewives"
GRAND SLAM FOCUS
Williams, who was looking fitter than she has for a number of years at
Melbourne Park, begins her campaign for her fourth Australian Open title
against China's Meng Yuan and said the grand slam tournaments would continue
to be her focus this year.
Serena現在看起來比之前幾年都還要身材適中 他首輪會碰到中國袁夢
他說大滿貫仍然會是他今年的焦點所在
"I'm definitely aiming myself at grand slams. I want to play my best tennis
in the majors.
"我當然把目標瞄準在大滿貫上面 我想在大滿貫打出最好的表現"
"The tour kind of restructured itself with so many big tournaments like in
Madrid and the Asia/Pacific area. So with the new exciting tennis, I think I
would want to play well at those tournaments too."
"現在巡迴賽多了更多大比賽 像是馬德里還有一些亞太區的比賽
所以是全新的網球賽 我想我也很希望在那些比賽打的出色"
Williams said she felt the standard of the women's game had improved in the
six years since she dominated it, winning the 'Serena Slam' in 2002-03 when
she simultaneously held all four grand slam titles.
他認為現在女網的標準要比他主宰.獲得Serena Slam的那段時間要進步的多
"I think everyone is playing better.
"每個人都打的更好了"
"A lot of the girls now, especially when they play against me, and probably
Venus too, they went to beat the best players and say that I was able to beat
them, or me," she said.
"現在很多女孩 他們打我 或是打Venus的時候 他們總是想打敗最好的選手
他們總是說'我可以打敗他們'"
"I feel like sometimes, when people play me they play extremely hard, which
actually makes me a better player.
"有時候當對手盡全力打我的時候 其實我也會打的更好"
"I would hope I have improved after five years."
"希望即使過了五年 我也有進步"
