　　塞弗巴耶斯特罗斯

　　Severiano Ballesteros, Europe s greatest golfer,died on May 7th, aged 54.

　　欧洲高尔夫名将Severiano Ballesteros，5月7日辞世，享年54岁。

　　As he struck the ball, Seve Ballesteros fearedhe had overdone it. After a good 3-wood tee shotand a decent sand-wedge to the 18th green at StAndrews in 1984, the ball was only 15 feet belowthe hole. Now, in his sheer eagerness to win, he had hit it too hard. But no. The ball rolledsweetly towards the hole, improbably curving round, hovered on the edge of the cup, thentumbled in. It seemed to go in slow motion as he willed it and willed it forward. And with thathe had won the Open.

　　当把球推出时，塞弗巴耶斯特罗斯还在担心自己用力过大。1984年圣安德鲁斯赛第十八洞果岭，在挥动一支3号木杆漂亮开球和沙坑杆后，球距洞口仅15 英呎之遥。由于求胜心切，他似乎用力过猛。但是球慢慢滚向球洞，令人难以置信地绕着弯，在洞口停了一下，然后滚了进去。小白球好像是随着巴耶斯特罗斯的意愿慢慢...慢慢滚进去的。就这样，他赢了比赛。

　　His joy then, as he punched the air, raised his arms to the crowd, laughed and almostdanced, was perhaps the most ecstatic moment ever seen in golf. Later he made that imagehis logo. Bags, shirts, caps and putter-covers proclaimed him to be the best. And for morethan a decade, from 1979 to 1991, he was. He won three British Open championships andtwo Masters, and over his whole career bore off 87 titles. He was in the European Ryder Cupteam that in 1985 overturned 28 years of American domination, and later led a team toRyder victory himself.
