网坛历史十强

大满贯头衔：8
如果说桑普拉斯是历史上最无趣的网球球员，那么阿加西就是
最龙飞凤舞的那位。他是从上世纪90年代早期至本世纪前十年
中期统治网坛的球员之一。网球职业生涯开始时，阿加西看起
来如同一个魅力四射的摇滚乐队的主唱，之后以海盗形象出
场，最终演变成一位谦和得体、备受追捧的球员。他是历史上
收集了四大满贯头衔（职业大满贯）的四位球员之一，也是前
奥运会金牌得主（1996年亚特兰大夏季奥运会）。阿加西也曾
因伤病问题经历跌宕起伏，媒体对他既用蜜糖也用棍棒，尤其
在他于2009年出自传承认当年曾使用甲基苯丙胺（冰毒）后。
网坛需要更多的阿加西出现。

If Pete Sampras is themost boring tennis player to ever live then
Andrei Agassi is the most flamboyant. One of the game’s most
dominant players for over adecade from the early ’90s to themid
2000s,Andrei startedoffhisprofessionalcareer looking likethe lead
singer of a glam rock band, transformed into a pirate and ended
up a veryhumble, quiet character lovedby everyone. He is oneof
only fourmale tennis players to havewon every Grand Slam title
(the Career Grand Slam), which is an incredible effort. Another
former Olympic goldmedalist, Agassi emerged triumphant at the
1996 Atlanta Summer Games. Agassi also had his ups and downs
with injuryandwashoundedbybothpositiveandnegativemedia,
especially after he admitted methamphetamine (crystal meth)

BJÖRNBORG
国家：瑞典
大满贯头衔：11
这位伟大的瑞典球员是最勉强列入榜单
的球员之一。他在巅峰状态时完全主宰
欧洲网坛，但似乎对另外两项大满贯（
澳网和美网）兴趣不浓。然而，博格
依然被认为是网球史上最伟大的球员之
一。他是曾在同一赛季拿下法网和温网
的四位球员之一，也是唯一连续三年创
下此佳绩的球员。他在红土和草地上的
主宰表明了他应该可以赢得更多头衔。
人们将永远记住博格对温网的主宰、飘
逸的长发以及浅浅的胡茬。

ThegreatSwede isoneof the
hardest toslip into this list.He
totallydominatedtennis inEuropeathispeak
but seemed tohaveno interest in theother
two Slams (Australia and the US). However,
Borg is still widely regarded bymany to be
oneof thegreatest tennisplayers of all time.
Borg is one of only four players in the open
era towinbothWimbledon and the French
Open in the sameyear, and is theonlyplayer
to accomplish this feat for three consecutive
years. His dominance on clay and grass
suggestshecouldhavewonmanymoretitles.
Borgwill alwaysbe remembered for his total
dominance atWimbledon, his long flowing
hairand three-daystubble.
