老瓦依然年轻 5月5日下午,男子双打决赛结束后不一会儿,我又在赛场外的一张球台边与瓦尔德内尔见面了。刚才,我是在为刘国梁、孔令辉终于将佩尔森和这位“老瓦”战胜而叫好。可现在,他的形象又着实令我感动,甚至有点热泪盈眶。 他那左脸颊带有一道疤痕,白皙而很少动容的脸上,现在仍是一无表情。他内心是在为刚才的失败而沮丧,还是在为一会儿就要开始的单打决赛默默祈祷?我实在一点也看不出来。我能在他脸上看到的,只有两个字——坚毅。 Old tile is still young On the afternoon of May 5, a short while after the men’s doubles finals, I again met with Waldner at a table outside the stadium. Just now I was applauding for Liu Guoliang and Kong Linghui to finally defeat Pearson and this “old tile”. But now, his image really touched me, even a bit tears. His face with a scar on his left cheek, white and seldom moved, is still expressionless. Is his heart frustrated just now, or is he silently praying for the singles final for a while? I really can not tell. I can see in his face, only two words - perseverance.
