網易體育2月23日報道：
穆雷因為感染新冠無奈退出今年澳網，如今澳網落下大幕，穆雷接受採訪透露自己沒心情
看澳網決戰，不過看了一下比賽集錦，談到德約橫掃梅德韋傑夫奪冠，穆雷直言年輕一代
表現太弱了，如果德約去年美網不衝動的話，蒂姆想奪冠也是沒戲。
穆雷獲得正賽外卡，遺憾的是由於感染新冠，最終未能登上澳網班 機。直到澳網結束，
穆雷依然對於未能參賽感到懊惱，透露由於被迫錯過了澳網大滿貫賽事，也無法讓自己去
看男單決戰，並在社交媒體上取消了對其他選手的關注。
「我沒有看比賽，實話實說，我非常掙扎。此外，我也不再在社交 媒體上關注所有網球
運動員了，因為我真的不想看到他們。」當其他球員出戰澳網大滿貫賽事時，穆雷也復出
了，在意大利參加一場低級別的挑戰賽，心理落差之大可想而知。
德約決戰直落三盤橫掃梅德韋傑夫，成就澳網九冠王偉業，談到這場決戰，穆雷直言梅德
韋傑夫的表現令人失望。「我看到了梅德韋傑夫發表了關於德約壓力巨大的言論，事實也
是如此，只不過，這些傢伙一直高高在上，他們一直在處理巨大壓力。在整個職業生涯中
，他 們知道如何處理壓力，併發揮出最佳水準。」
「平心而論，我本以為決賽會打得非常接近，當然，我也知道德約有多出色，他的狀態有
多好，而且有多麼大的動力。」穆雷吐槽了年 輕一代球員的表現，「在我看來，年輕人
並沒有表現出步步緊逼的能力。」
不得不提的是，穆雷在這次吐槽中也讓蒂姆「躺槍」，「美網上的 一切就很明顯了，毫
無疑問，蒂姆為了贏得冠軍做了自己必須做的， 問題是，如果德約沒有將球打到裁判喉
嚨上，我想蒂姆和梅德韋傑夫的結果是一樣的。」
為了恢復狀態，穆雷如今積極以賽代練，「能打五場比賽真是太好 了，過去的五個月里
我沒怎麼打比賽，而且因為感染新冠，我有兩周基本上沒有被允許做任何事情。現在我感
覺很好。我的臀部和其他部位都很好。」
「如果我能保持健康，擁有系統訓練和比賽，我認為可以與最好的 球員競爭。」除了充
滿自信，穆雷也希望疫情不要繼續影響網球運動 ，「所有球員都處於困難境地，我們必
須接受，希望疫苗推出後，旅行能變得容易一些。」

Andy Murray has revealed he could not bring himself to watch the Australian Op
en and unfollowed other players on social media after being forced to miss the
event.
The former world number one was unable to travel to Australia following an unt
imely bout of coronavirus and, while the rest of the leading names in the spor
t were doing battle in Melbourne, he was competing at a lower-level Challenger
tournament in Italy.
Murray said: "I didn't watch any because I wanted to be there myself. It was a
struggle, to be honest. I stopped following all the tennis players I follow o
n social media and stuff because I just didn't really want to see it."
The tournament finished on Sunday in familiar fashion with Novak Djokovic winn
ing a ninth title thanks to a straight-sets win over Daniil Medvedev in the me
n's singles final.
It struck another blow for the old guard of Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger F
ederer against the younger generation.
Murray said: "I expected the final to be closer, to be honest, but I also know
how good Novak is there and when he's on his game and obviously highly motiva
ted.
"I saw before the final Medvedev said something along the lines of Novak havin
g immense pressure on him, which is true, but those guys have been at the top
of the game, they've been dealing with immense pressure their whole careers an
d they know how to deal with it and perform at their best level when it matter
s.
"The younger guys, for me, they've not shown that they're particularly close.
Obviously what happened at the US Open, (Dominic) Thiem did what he had to do
to win the event, but, if Novak hadn't put a ball through the line judge's thr
oat, it would be the same outcome I think."
Murray made the most of his time in Italy, reaching the final before losing to
Illya Marchenko. He will play his first ATP Tour event of the season this wee
k at the Open Sud de France in Montpellier and he remains bullish about his ho
pes as he continues to work his way back from his long-term injury problems.
"It was good to get the five matches," said the 33-year-old. "I found it trick
y conditions to play there, to be honest. In terms of the level of tennis, it
was at times OK.
"I think around the quarters or something I was feeling a little bit tired and
then actually played a really good match in the semi-finals and felt fine and
then I actually felt fine on the finals days and then when the match started,
I just felt very heavy-legged and I didn't deal with it well at all.
"But I guess it's kind of understandable, I hadn't played many matches in the
last five months and was coming off two weeks where I basically wasn't allowed
to do anything because of the virus. And physically in terms of pain, I felt
good. My hips and stuff were good.

"I play in practice with lots of top players and I know how I get on against t
hem. If I was getting smoked when I was practising, I wouldn't keep going thro
ugh it. But I know the level I am playing at.
"Provided I can stay fit for a period of time and get good practice and matche
s in, I don't see why I shouldn't be able to compete with the best players.
"Obviously playing your Rafas, Novaks, Rogers, Medvedevs, Thiem, it's difficul
t. That would have been the case when I was ranked right up at the top of the
game.
"I still feel like I can compete for big events. I wish I was able to show tha
t in Australia. I was ready to do that. No question."
Negotiating coronavirus-related travel restrictions is another headache with w
hich all tennis players are having to become familiar.
Murray could shed the virus for some weeks to come and revealed he tested posi
tive on arrival in Italy, while his journey to France was delayed as he waited
for a test.
He needs a negative test, meanwhile, to be able to travel to his next tourname
nt in Rotterdam next week.
"It's challenging and tricky but that's the situation we're in right now and a
ll the players are in it," he said. "If the tour's going to keep going, we all
just have to accept it and hopefully in the latter stages of this year, maybe
once the vaccine has been rolled out, it will make travel a little bit easier
."
