Open 下载 极速 rtf epub 在线 word txt pdf

Far more than a superb memoir about the highest levels of professional tennis, Open is the engrossing story of a remarkable life.

Andre Agassi had his life mapped out for him before he left the crib. Groomed to be a tennis champion by his moody and demanding father, by the age of twenty-two Agassi had won the first of his eight grand slams and achieved wealth, celebrity, and the game’s highest honors. But as he reveals in this searching autobiography, off the court he was often unhappy and confused, unfulfilled by his great achievements in a sport he had come to resent. Agassi writes candidly about his early success and his uncomfortable relationship with fame, his marriage to Brooke Shields, his growing interest in philanthropy, and—described in haunting, point-by-point detail—the highs and lows of his celebrated career.

在你前进的道路上，生活会剥夺你几乎所有的家产，你要做的就是避开障碍。如果你因它们而止步或者分心，你就没有做好分内事，而这一点将使你懊悔不已。

“安德烈，”他说，“你得以网球为食，以网球为水，以网球为床，这是你成为世界第一的唯一方法。”

在29年的网球生涯中，我懂得了一点：在你前进的道路上，生活会剥夺你几乎所有的家当，你要做的就是避开障碍。如果你因它们而止步或者分心，你就没有做好自己的分内事，而这一点将使你懊悔不已。这种懊悔会比背痛更让你无法前行。

网球就是对不同程度的进攻性的演绎。

网球是一项自言自语的运动，任何其他运动员都不会像网球运动员这样自言自语。棒球投球手、高尔夫球手、足球守门员，当然也会自己小声嘟囔，但是网球运动员都是自己提问然后回答。在比赛最激烈的时刻，网球运动员看起来就像公共广场上的疯子，大声叫嚷、诅咒谩骂，不断与自我进行着辩论。为什么？因为网球这种运动太孤独了，只有拳击手才能理解网球运动员的孤独。就算是拳击手，也有助手和经纪人陪伴着，他们甚至还可以将拳击场上的对手视作某种意义的伙伴，和他们扭斗、对他们咕哝。然而在网球比赛中，你和对手永远是面对面的厮杀，却永远不会碰触到对方或是跟对方或是其他人交谈。网球规则禁止网球运动员在比赛时与人交谈，甚至与教练交谈都不行。

........

水在我耳边哗哗地响，就像两万名球迷的呐喊声。我回想起那些特别的胜利——那些球迷不会记得的，但却仍会令我难以入眠的胜利——在巴黎对阵斯奎拉里、在纽约与布莱克鏖战、在澳大利亚与皮特一争高下。我珍惜其中的分分秒秒，当然也会回想起一些失败，想到失望时我摇摇头。我告诉自己，今晚不过是场考试而已，而且考的是我已经学了29年的东西。不论发生什么，我至少已经经历过一次。或是身体上的测试，或是精神上的考验，没有什么新鲜的。

让这一切结束吧。

我不想就这样结束。

我开始大声哭泣，斜靠在淋浴间的墙上，让眼泪尽情流淌。

I'll hug my father again before I embrace Wimbledon
