小威公開身孕莎娃即將復(fù)出

This is What's Trending Today.

這里是今日熱點(diǎn)節(jié)目。

Earlier this year, many tennis fans were talking about the Australian Open finals. American tennis stars – and sisters – Serena and Venus Williams played each other in a so-called Grand Slam final for the first time since 2009.

今年早些時候，很多網(wǎng)球迷都在討論澳網(wǎng)公開賽的決賽。美國網(wǎng)球明星姐妹塞雷娜·威廉姆斯(Serena Williams，小威)和維納斯·威廉姆斯(Venus Williams，大威)自2009年以來首次在大滿貫決賽中相遇。

Serena beat her older sister in two sets to win the Australian Open.

小威直落兩盤擊敗了她的姐姐大威贏得澳網(wǎng)公開賽。

Little did we know, Williams was in her eighth week of pregnancy at the time.

我們都不知道，小威當(dāng)時懷有8個月身孕。

This week, she posted a photo of herself wearing a yellow bathing suit on social media. On the photo she wrote "20 weeks."

本周，小威在社交媒體上貼出一張黃色泳裝照，并注明“20周”。

Fans immediately started talking and debating. Was Serena pregnant?

粉絲們很快開始爭論，小威懷孕啦?

A spokeswoman later confirmed Williams' pregnancy. She also confirmed that she would not play in tennis competitions for the rest of the year. The spokeswoman said Williams expects to return to tennis in 2018, however.

一位發(fā)言人隨后確認(rèn)了小威懷孕。她還確認(rèn)小威不會參加今年余下時間的網(wǎng)球比賽。但是這位女發(fā)言人表示，小威預(yù)計(jì)于2018年重返網(wǎng)壇。

The baby is due sometime in the fall. Williams is set to marry internet businessman Alexis Ohanian.

這個寶寶預(yù)產(chǎn)期是在今年秋天某個時間。小威將同互聯(lián)網(wǎng)企業(yè)家阿萊克西斯·奧哈尼安(Alexis Ohanian)結(jié)婚。

Williams has not played since her win at the Australian Open. She reportedly had an injured knee.

小威自贏得澳網(wǎng)公開賽后就沒參加比賽。據(jù)報(bào)道她是膝蓋有傷。

The younger Williams sister holds the most-ever Grand Slam singles titles. Her win in Australia moved her ahead of Germany's Steffi Graf.

小威贏得了史上最多的大滿貫單打冠軍。她在澳網(wǎng)的勝利使她超越了德國的施特菲·格拉芙 (Steffi Graf) 。

Many people could not believe Williams was able to win a major tournament while pregnant. Comedian Trevor Noah joked Williams had an unfair advantage in the match against Venus; she was actually playing "doubles" tennis while her sister was playing "singles."

很多人不敢相信小威在懷孕期間還能贏得大型錦標(biāo)賽。喜劇演員特雷弗·諾亞(Trevor Noah)戲稱小威在對戰(zhàn)大威時具有不公平的優(yōu)勢，她是雙打(意指懷孕)而大威是單打。

A doctor told the BBC that being pregnant might have helped Williams in some ways. Some of the changes women go through in the first few weeks of pregnancy actually help improve physical performance, the expert said.

有醫(yī)生對英國廣播公司(BBC)表示，懷孕可能在某些方面對小威有幫助。這名專家表示，女性在孕初幾個星期所經(jīng)歷的一些變化實(shí)際上有助于提高體能。

However, one fan on social media said she could barely get out of bed at that point in her pregnancy.

然而，社交媒體上有粉絲表示，她懷孕期間幾乎下不了床。

Another person joked Williams' fetus is already ranked 200th in the world in tennis.

還有人戲稱小威的寶寶在世界網(wǎng)壇已經(jīng)排名第200位。

In other tennis news, Russian Maria Sharapova starts her comeback next week after a 15-month suspension. She had not been permitted to play after taking the illegal drug meldonium. She will return to competition at a tournament in Germany.

在其它網(wǎng)壇消息中，俄羅斯美女瑪麗亞·莎拉波娃(Maria Sharapova)在15個月禁賽后下周開始復(fù)出。她在服用禁藥米曲肼(meldonium)后被禁止參賽。她將在德國的一場錦標(biāo)賽上重返網(wǎng)壇。

And that's What's Trending Today.
