两人不和？

　　新浪体育讯　北京时间6月12日消息，据外媒报道，德约科维奇的教练贝克尔在最新出版的自传中透露塞尔维亚人与瑞士球王费德勒不和已是公开的秘密，还称费德勒并不如外界所看到的那么好，这引发了极大争议。德国名宿随后在推特上回应称媒体报道不实。

　　贝克尔的最新自传名为《温布尔登：我在全英俱乐部的生活和职业生涯》。他在其中称自己的弟子德约科维奇和费德勒“并不是非常喜欢彼此”，还称在费德勒“好好先生”的公众形象之下其实隐藏着黑暗面。“罗杰之所以能成为史上收入最高的运动员之一，是因为人人都喜欢他。但仔细想想——你不可能被每个人都喜欢。”

　　贝克尔在自传中提出了一个问题，如果当今男子网坛的顶尖球员能展现出更多个性，有更多的真情流露，网球比赛是否会变得更具看点——就如同他本人当球员时期以及更早年代一样，麦肯罗和康纳斯在场上的相互指责，“冰人”伦德尔与球迷始终保持距离，又或者像阿加西和贝克尔那样性格外放，在比赛中能充分调动球迷的情绪。

　　“费德勒凭借良好的形象赚得了丰厚的收入，不过如果我们能更多看到他的真实情感，会是怎样呢？”贝克尔在书中写道，“不时有人告诉我，现在的网球比赛比我打球那个时候无聊多了。当我问他们为什么这么说时，他们回答现在球员个性不够鲜明。我告诉他们，其实现在的球员很有个性，只不过他们没法流露出来，因为不能。场上有麦克风，能录下他们所的每一句脏话或者每一次宣泄，接着他们就会领到罚单。所以，现如今，你很难口头表达自己的沮丧，因为大家伙儿都听着呢，回到更衣室，你就会面临1万、2万或者更多金额的罚款。”

　　当媒体的报道引发争议后，贝克尔随后在推特上作出回应：“关于我对费德勒的看法，媒体谎话连篇，做了不确切的引用。让我告诉你们：我非常尊重他，作为我们这项运动的球员/男人/传奇！”不过随后他还为自己的自传打起了广告：“若你们想知道我到底是怎么评价他以及其他当今和过去球员的，可以买我的书。”

　　World number one Novak Djokovic’s coach Boris Becker has revealed that his man has a big problem with Roger Federer。

　　German tennis superstar Becker has published a new autobiography in which he talks about the “open secret” of the animosity between two of the best players ever to pick up a racquet。

　　Becker’s language in “Wimbledon: My Life and Career at the All England Club” is temperate, in that he refers to the fact that the duo “don’t particularly like each other” rather than spilling the beans on years of mutual hatred。

　　But he goes on to talk about Federer in terms which suggest that beneath the Swiss legend’s smooth veneer is a rather darker character than we’ve been led to suspect。

　　“The reason Roger is one of the highest-paid athletes of all time is because he’s liked by everybody,” writes Becker。

　　“But think about this – you can’t possibly be liked by everybody。”

　　Becker also poses an open question, wondering whether the entire game of tennis might be more fun to watch if the men at the top of the sport showed a bit more fire – as they did in Becker’s day and before, when the likes of John McEnroe and Jimmy Connors fumed their way around the court, Ivan Lendl alienated fans with his ice-man persona, and players such as Andre Agassi and Becker himself wore their hearts on their sleeves in a manner that had fans roaring out of their seats。

　　“Federer makes good money out of his image, but would he make less if we saw a bit more of his true feelings?” Becker asks。

　　“People occasionally put it to me that tennis is more boring now than when I played, and when I ask them why they say there are fewer characters。

　　“I reply that we have great characters, but it’s true they don’t show it as much because they can’t. They get fined and there are microphones on the court that pick up every curse or utterance in frustration。

　　“As a result, it’s very difficult to verbalise your frustration nowadays because everyone hears it and you go back to the locker room to face a fine of $10,000 or $20,000 or even more。”
