兩位決賽的男子選手在頒獎典禮上都講法語……完全聽不懂……以下來自今天的New York Times文章 :
“It’s not easy for me to speak right now, but I have to say that in life some things are more important than victories, and those are character and respect,” Djokovic said. “I have great respect for you Stan. You are a great champion with a big heart, and you deserve this title.”
“I think people tend to create more of a story where it’s just me, and it feels like I’m the only player who wants to win the trophy, and nobody wants to win it as much as I do,” Djokovic said. “This is completely untrue. Every single player who is here, especially the top players, wants to win this trophy as much as I do.”
“I don’t want to come up with an excuse, saying these two matches took a lot out of me, and I lost today,” he said. “I don’t think that’s fair to Stan. I don’t think that’s fair to sit here and whine about now what has happened.”
He added: “Maybe in some important moments, I didn’t feel I had that explosivity in the legs, but look, in the end of the day, he was just a better player.”
“Stan told me this morning that he’d try to get it back for me,” Norman said, grinning.
