Oldest Winter Olympian to set record 

美國54歲老翁出征冬奧會 年紀(jì)最大創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄

Scott Baird,the oldest Winter Olympian in the history of the Games

When Scott Baird steps on the curling rink next week he will become the oldest Winter Olympian in the history of the Games.
Aged 54 and 282 days, the white-haired curler from Minnesota will beat the previous record set by Briton James Coates who at the 1948 Winter Games at the age of 53 and 328 days competed in the skeleton, finishing seventh.

"I am the oldest member of the U.S. men's curling team and that is exactly one of the reasons I love curling," a smiling Baird told Reuters on Sundaysaid ahead of the start of the Turin Olympics, his first.

"Curling is like golf, it's a lifetime sport."
Baird is from Bemidji, Minnesota, which prides itself as the curling capital of the U.S. and has another four of its citizens on the men's and women's Olympic teams.

He said while he taught the younger players a thing or two about the sport, he was also picking up a lot from them.

"The game is always evolving and I am still learning from watching them play," Baird said. "The strategy is constantly evolving."
As for the team's chances of a medal, Baird said if they played well they could surprise everyone.

"We are hopeful if we play to the top of our game. If we can be consistent we will have good results," he said.

The team, including Baird, finished sixth at the 2005 world championships which were won by Canada. Scotland, competing in the Turin Olympics for Britain, were second and Germany third.

Despite his veteran status, Baird is not considering putting an end to his curling career.

"I want to keep going. At least for another decade or two," he said with a smile. "At least at club level."

下周,踏上冰壺比賽場的斯科特·貝爾德將成為冬奧會歷史上年紀(jì)最大的參賽選手。

這位滿頭白發(fā)的冰壺選手來自明尼蘇達(dá)州,年齡54歲零282天。白他將取代1948年冬奧會上的英國選手詹姆斯·科茨,成為冬奧會歷史上年紀(jì)最大的運(yùn)動員。詹姆斯當(dāng)時53歲零328天,參加了俯式冰撬項目,在比賽中獲得第七名。

都靈冬奧會開幕前,貝爾德笑著說:"我是美國男子冰壺隊中年紀(jì)最大的運(yùn)動員,這也正是我喜歡這項運(yùn)動的原因之一。"這是他第一次參加冬奧會。

"和高爾夫一樣,冰壺運(yùn)動是終生可以參加的運(yùn)動。"貝爾德來自明尼蘇達(dá)州的伯米吉市,當(dāng)?shù)靥柗Q是美國冰壺運(yùn)動之城,在奧運(yùn)參賽隊伍中還有另外四名選手來自此地。

貝爾德說,當(dāng)他教年輕運(yùn)動員這項運(yùn)動的一些知識時,他也從他們身上學(xué)到了很多。

貝爾德說:"這項運(yùn)動始終在發(fā)展之中,通過看年輕人比賽,我仍然在學(xué)習(xí)。運(yùn)動技巧一直在不斷發(fā)展。"

談到自己的隊伍能否獲得獎牌時,貝爾德表示,如果隊員們發(fā)揮得好,他們會給所有人帶來驚喜。
他說:"如果發(fā)揮到最佳狀態(tài),我們很有希望(獲得獎牌)。如果我們配合默契,我們會取得好成績的。"

在2005年世界錦標(biāo)賽中,加拿大隊獲得冠軍,貝爾德所在的美國男隊獲得第六名。當(dāng)年,蘇格蘭隊第二,德國隊第三,在今年的比賽中他們將和加拿大隊一決雌雄。

貝爾德雖然是老隊員,但是他認(rèn)為他的冰壺運(yùn)動生涯并沒有結(jié)束。

他微笑著說:"我想繼續(xù)參加比賽,至少會再堅持一二十年。至少到達(dá)俱樂部級吧。"
