I don't have anything better than that. 51 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 5: So I'm sick. 52 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 10: Your moment is my moment because I did see that 53 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 10: as well and just thought that was great respect game 54 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 10: recognizing game. But like you said, the personality stuff that 55 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 10: you've referred to as you've hit the nail on the head, 56 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 10: they always give something either fun or insights as well. 57 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 10: Two pretty intelligent people, So that was fantastic. So you 58 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 10: mentioned Arena Sablenka is through. She got the job done 59 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 10: last night, and it was a match that had its 60 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 10: ebbs and flows, didn't It was an intriguing contest. 61 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 11: Yeah, it was intriguing and it was also just a 62 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 11: really interesting match in terms of how it did unfold. 63 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 11: So Sabolenka had a clear tack to you know, want 64 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 11: to come out and play big. She you know, went 65 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 11: up early in that first set. She just was trying 66 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 11: to take time away from Eager. She scrapped back somehow. 67 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 11: Eager in that first set went to a tiebreak, and 68 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 11: Saballenka did a good job with these spin hitting. 69 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 5: Like I said, I mean, the ball was at the. 70 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 11: Shoes of srin Tek before she had even you know, 71 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 11: been ready to play the ball. But yeah, then she 72 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 11: got back and won that second set, but the third 73 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 11: set was just a whitewash Sablenka's way. 74 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 10: Sablenka her development has been something remarkable on clay in 75 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 10: particular this year, hasn't it because we know she's one 76 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 10: hard court slams before, but there's something about her this 77 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 10: year that has clicked. 78 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, her form coming in has been absolutely exceptional. This 79 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 11: is her best chance of winning Roland Garros, there is 80 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 11: no doubt about it. Even over the last eighteen months 81 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 11: she has been the standout player on the women's to US. 82 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 11: So this was really I guess, stamping her mark in 83 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 11: regards to that beating you know, time champion Eager and 84 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 11: doing it so convincingly in that third set. I wouldn't 85 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 11: say it was perfect or pretty throughout the whole match, 86 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 11: but I think her form her tennis and what she 87 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 11: did in this match was really good. 88 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 6: Yeah. 89 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 10: So she's into her first final at Roland Gallas. It's 90 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 10: her fifth out of six slams straight. The consistency quite 91 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 10: astonishing and Duncan caught up with her. 92 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, there was crazy march and the third sat I 93 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 4: think there was a key, key moments in the in 94 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 4: the second set of the third set, and then after 95 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 4: I was able to break her, I just stepped in 96 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 4: and put so much pressure on her, and yeah, and 97 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 4: somehow I got the win sixth laugh, which is something unbelievable, 98 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 4: especially against someone like. 99 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 12: Yiga, considering the mountain of work than you and your 100 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 12: team have put in to get better on this surface. 101 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 12: What would it mean to you to win your first 102 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 12: non hard court major. 103 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 4: It's gonna mean everything to us. We worked so hard 104 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 4: and we developed my game a lot, and I think 105 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 4: how I feel, I feel pretty confident that that that 106 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 4: I can get that title. I just have to go 107 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 4: out there and have to fight and have to do 108 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 4: everything I can to get the win. And yeah, I'm 109 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 4: super excited to be in the finals. 110 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 12: Hopefully a few margarinas to celebrate on Saturday night, so I. 111 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 4: Hope so too. It's been a while since I drink 112 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 4: that area. Thank you, thank you well. 113 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 3: I think, you know, the pace was from her super fast, 114 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 3: and she, for sure, especially at the beginning of the match, 115 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 3: played like you know, just kind of as hard as 116 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 3: possible and and pretty risky. So it was just hard 117 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 3: to get into any rally, you know, and then you know, 118 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 3: I was able to do that. So the game was 119 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 3: you know, kind of like more things happened because it 120 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,559 Speaker 3: wasn't just like serving one shot or return and one shot, 121 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 3: you know, and I could build the rally a little bit. Yeah, 122 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 3: but in the third set, I feel like we kind 123 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 3: of came back to what happened in first and she 124 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 3: for sure used her chances and they didn't really you know, 125 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: keep up what I was doing in second seven. 126 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 10: So the three time defending champion is out, that streak 127 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 10: of twenty six matches is over. 128 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,239 Speaker 6: Let's put it into some context. What now for Ego? 129 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 6: What does this result mean for her? 130 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 10: Do you think, remembering she's only twenty four years of 131 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 10: age and what she's already achieved. 132 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 11: Yeah, look, I think if you actually put it into perspective, 133 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 11: it's a really good result to make the semi famal, 134 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 11: particularly given the form that maybe or lack of form 135 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 11: that we thought she was coming in with. And I 136 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 11: thought she played some really good tennis throughout Roland Garros. 137 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 11: She came up against a much better opponent in Arena 138 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 11: Sablenka today. But it was interesting to hear it in 139 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 11: the press, just talk about the fact that she's keen 140 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,919 Speaker 11: to get on the grass, doesn't necessarily feel like she 141 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 11: needs to take too much of a break or go home. 142 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 11: I just would love to see Eger say, yeah, I'm 143 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 11: gonna a bit luck. I mentioned about Alex like, put 144 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 11: the rackets down. You know, she's put a lot of 145 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 11: probably effort into this. Roland Garross. It's the weeks along 146 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 11: at a slam. I think, just go have a little 147 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 11: bit of a break, put the rackets down for a 148 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 11: few days, and hopefully she can come out and just 149 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 11: really play some good craft court tennis. 150 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 6: She is so intense. 151 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 10: It's been her greatest strength, though at times hasn't it 152 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 10: And she drops down to number seven in. 153 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 6: The world now. 154 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 10: But for Coco GoF it means we've got the dream final, 155 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 10: the world number one up against the world number two. 156 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 6: Because Coco was too good for Luis Bosson. 157 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 10: And I think in terms of was it emotional, mentality, 158 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 10: physical tactical because she was very convincing. 159 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 5: Gough was awesome. She was so good. Her forehand looked 160 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 5: really good, I thought throughout this match, and I thought that. 161 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 11: Just enabled her to get the ball and really pepper 162 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 11: that back end side of Borson, who we know is 163 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 11: a forehand player, so I thought Coco also served much 164 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 11: better than she had in her previous match. 165 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 5: She's seeming seemingly so confident. 166 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 11: Everyone talks about it, we see it all the time, 167 00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 11: how GoF finds a way to win her athleticism When 168 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 11: you come up against her and she's just at every 169 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 11: ball she anticipates, well, it becomes quite tough. What I 170 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 11: love the most was hearing her say though every time 171 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 11: the crowd said, she said to herself, Coco, I just 172 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 11: know It's something so small, isn't it. But to be 173 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 11: able to go okay, Coco, you got this, like just 174 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 11: that positive reinforcement in terms of her mindset, I think 175 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 11: is exceptional for someone so young. 176 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 10: And you touched on the forehand and the serve. It's 177 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 10: all we ever talk about with Coco. But the fact 178 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 10: that she delivered on a big stage against the hometown 179 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 10: crowd would give her enormous confidence for the final, now, 180 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 10: wouldn't it. 181 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 5: I think? 182 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: So? 183 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 11: I think having that under her belt, that the forehanded 184 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 11: serve particularly is what she needed to go into the 185 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 11: final against Sabolenka. She has to serve well against Sabelenka, 186 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 11: otherwise Sablanka is absolutely going to crush her serve. But yeah, 187 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 11: I thought overall Coco's performance that the tennis she delivered, 188 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 11: we know what type of effort she's going to bring 189 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 11: into a plus every time, but the tennis she brought 190 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 11: was very good. 191 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 10: Yep, Duncan the effort that he's been very good. 192 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 6: The daily Doblins. 193 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 10: That said, he's got both of the victorious semi finalists. 194 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 6: He also caught up. 195 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 12: With Coco all co co congratulations an absolutely outstanding achievement. 196 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 12: Can you just tell us how was the Coco of 197 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 12: today different to the one who played in her first 198 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 12: Grand Slam final here back in twenty twenty two. 199 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you know that will never experience a 200 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: Grand Slam final before and felt so much pressure. But 201 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: now I think it's just realizing that it is just 202 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: a match and just going out there and you know, 203 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 1: knowing that I've given myself a good result already.

I just I just feel like 221 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: I was running everywhere on the court today. So was 222 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: really tough.

She's always out on court, 255 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 11: she's always working hard.

But I think she's 263 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 11: putting herself out there. 264 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 5: She's still so young. 265 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 11: I think she's doing all of the right things becoming 266 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 11: the trying to become the first girl since nine or 267 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 11: in fifty seven years since Leslie Hunt won the girls 268 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 11: singles title at Roland Garros.

And yeah, 335 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 11: that was a moment to celebrate for me because that 336 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 11: was my only Grand same title ended up winning. Obviously, 337 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 11: I made seven Grand Sam doubles finals with Ash and 338 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 11: Skivoni and other partners, but never got one. So the 339 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 11: mix that one particularly was extra special. 340 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, cool moment.

Obviously it's 353 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 3: gonna win.

I just love singing. 371 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 10: How does it work like mentally and physically your arm, 372 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 10: your your wrist, housing impossible. 373 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 15: Very talented. 374 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 7: In the jungle, you're and oh, I was going to 375 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 7: build some to the new heart in the jungle. 376 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 6: Every day his messitation wan to please. We can just 377 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 6: be I want it and sacrifice. I'll bet a lie. 378 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 6: Nobody plays Frank Lucas in the drunk. 379 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 10: The most dangerous creation is the man who has nothing 380 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 10: left us down across. 381 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 6: We wants more. We will go to war. 382 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 8: Justin James, it's back to back semifinals. But Yanick Sinna 383 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 8: it will be a fifty post of major stall a 384 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 8: l But Djokovic. 385 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 10: Oh, geta Yenick Cinna. 386 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 8: That is imperious best, an awesome force of nature. 387 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 5: Delicately Jane is better than most. 388 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 16: No, beckyat is very bit not than there's a. 389 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 10: Ridiculous Oh it doesn't that set the scene goosebumps. So 390 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 10: we've got a twenty four time Grand Sam champion, the 391 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 10: greatest of all time, up against the world number one. 392 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 6: It doesn't get much better. How do you break it down? 393 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 11: Look, I guess if there's one person that's going to 394 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 11: go out and beat Sinner, the world number one, in 395 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 11: a semi final roll in Garris, you know. 396 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 5: Who it's going to be. 397 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 11: No Jo bitch I think he's coming in much fresher 398 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 11: Novak than probably we've seen him in a long time 399 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 11: at this stage of the tournament. Look, I just feel 400 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 11: like this shot particularly is going to be. 401 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 5: Very important, the drop shot. 402 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 11: He played that so well against Verev, to be able 403 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 11: to bring Sinner forward and not just get him moving 404 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 11: laterally at the back of the court. The evolution of 405 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 11: what Novak has been able to do over the years 406 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 11: because of the length of time he's been in the 407 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 11: game and the age that he's at and what he's 408 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,239 Speaker 11: had to change to be able to still compete with 409 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 11: the best in the world, it has been phenomenal. So 410 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 11: I think it's going to be absolutely enthralling. 411 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 5: I can't wait for it. But yeah, I don't know 412 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 5: what you think. 413 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 11: But also I think Sinner having that time off has 414 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 11: just brought him a bit of perspective and he's desperate 415 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 11: and he wants it and he's fresh. 416 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 10: Well, my question casey in terms of the head to 417 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 10: head four all but Sinner has won the last three. 418 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 10: So is it stupid to even suggest that Novak needs 419 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 10: to do something different given how good he is to 420 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:34,959 Speaker 10: break that trend? 421 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 5: Yeah? 422 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 11: Maybe, But I think I think the fact that you 423 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 11: know they are for a piece. They've both had wins 424 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 11: against each other, but Sinner has won the last three Oasis, 425 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 11: so I think that's probably the biggest thing that. Yes, 426 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 11: I do think that Novak probably needs to shift a 427 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 11: little bit of what he has done from what I'm 428 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 11: sure he's learned plenty from those past games, I would imagine, 429 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 11: And yeah, I think incorporating the drops, I think Snovak's 430 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 11: serving much better as well, and his mental game is 431 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 11: top notch of course, so it's so exciting who's your tip, 432 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 11: well a back center prior to the tournament to be 433 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 11: my winner, So I feel like I have to stick 434 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 11: with Sinner. But yeah, Sinner, but I think it's going 435 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 11: to be enthralling. And I look, I'm not going to 436 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 11: be surprised. 437 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 5: At all if no that wins. 438 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 10: I thought you're going to roll out the Wally line 439 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 10: there and say it's fifty one nine percent. But it's Sinner. 440 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 10: You mentioned there about the three month layoff and the 441 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 10: particular changes we'll don't put up with his coach Darren 442 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 10: Cahiu and asked about that time off. 443 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 16: Well, Simoni, the other coach, was a big part of 444 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 16: that as well. And yeah, we're just trying to evolve 445 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 16: Geti's game as much as we can, because everybody knows 446 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 16: he hits great fourhands in backhands and he brings a 447 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 16: lot of power to the game, but that doesn't work 448 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 16: against every single player you play against, so he has 449 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 16: to be a bit more creative and work on different 450 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 16: finishing skills, and that might be coming to the net 451 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 16: a little bit more of voling a bit better or 452 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 16: mixing up he served more using the slices back in 453 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 16: every now and then, So we spent a lot of 454 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 16: time on doing stuff that we didn't normally have a 455 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 16: great deal of chance to work on, and we're seeing 456 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 16: some of that here. But for the most part, he's 457 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 16: still been cracking four hands and back end, so he's 458 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 16: been sticking to his strengths. 459 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 12: It's been an incredible tournament so far. Five straight wins, 460 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 12: all in straight sets. Is this the best you've ever 461 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 12: seen Yannick play at Roland Gaross And what's been the 462 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 12: big difference this year? 463 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 16: I think he played pretty well here last year as 464 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 16: well to get through to the semis and had a 465 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 16: real good chance against Carlos in the semi finals, ended 466 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 16: up losing in five sets. 467 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's hard. 468 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 16: For me to We see him every day, so it's 469 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 16: difficult for me to say what the differences are. We 470 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 16: can look at the analytics, which we go into quite 471 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 16: a bit. Yeah, he's hitting the ball a bit harder, 472 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 16: he's hitting it with the more spin, it's more accurate, 473 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 16: so he's taking control of more points. So yeah, it 474 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 16: would line up that he's playing as well as he's 475 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 16: ever played on clay. I think I've seen him play 476 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 16: better tennis overall than what he's played here. But that's normal, right, 477 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 16: because he just hasn't played any tournaments over the last 478 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 16: four months. But he's been getting better and better as 479 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 16: the rounds go along. And the most depressive thing is 480 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 16: how efficient he's been so far in this tournament. No 481 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 16: wasted energy. He's going into the semifinals with a full 482 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 16: tank and he'll be ready to go against maybe the 483 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 16: greatest of all time. 484 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 12: Can you talk to us about the process of coming 485 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 12: up with the game plan to be the greatest of 486 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 12: all time? How does it all work between yourself, Simone 487 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 12: and Yannick. 488 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 16: Yeah, we were here last night watching the match with Alexander. 489 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 16: Didn't see anything that we don't normally see from Novak, 490 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 16: which is incredibly impressive and every single thing that he does. 491 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 16: Novak has an really underrated serve, both first serve and 492 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 16: second serve. So getting into the points against Novak's really important, 493 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 16: and then being efficient when you have chances to finish 494 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 16: the point, because if you let Novak reset the point 495 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 16: and extend the rallies, then it becomes really difficult to 496 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 16: put him away. So once you get those opportunities to 497 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 16: finish the point, then Yannick has to step up and 498 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 16: be aggressive. 499 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 12: And just one last one. I did speak to Yanik 500 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 12: yesterday and he expects it's going to be a very 501 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 12: tactical match. Does he go into this match with a 502 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,959 Speaker 12: plan A, and then maybe a plan B, and then 503 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 12: maybe a plan see if that doesn't. 504 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 16: Work, Yeah, we don't make it too complicated. He'll have 505 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 16: a couple of different ideas about the tactics he needs 506 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 16: to use. But the great thing about tennis now is 507 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 16: we can have on court coaching and so if things 508 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 16: are going wrong and it can come to the back 509 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 16: of the court and have a quick chat to us 510 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 16: and we can give him some different ideas to try 511 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 16: out in the court as well. So we don't need 512 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 16: to send him out with a big notebook of different 513 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 16: types of plans. You can get him, give him a 514 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 16: couple of things that he can work on, and if 515 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 16: things are not going to plan, then we can certainly 516 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 16: change it. 517 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 12: Okay, best of like down, Yeah, thank you mate. 518 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,959 Speaker 5: Oh, Absolutely fascinating stuff. 519 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 11: Just hearing from one of the best coaches on tour, 520 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 11: Darren k Hill. The fact that they use data analytics, 521 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 11: the fact that you know they've got game plans. To 522 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 11: have that in someone like Darren in your corner. That 523 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 11: was a master class in terms of just three minutes 524 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 11: of encapsulating how influential a coaching and a coach team 525 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 11: and support team is for player. So yeah, that was awesome. 526 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 11: It was from dunk to get. 527 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, and good luck to Novak Djokovic if he's hitting 528 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 10: it harder with more spin and more. 529 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 6: Accurate than he ever has before he had seen. A 530 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 6: good luck to everyone else. 531 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,479 Speaker 10: The other semi final tonight, it features the defending champion 532 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 10: in Carlos Alcores. He's up against arguably the most informed 533 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 10: clay player of the moment in Lorenzo Minzetti. 534 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 9: I think the difference between myself in twenty twenty one 535 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 9: comparing to this year, I think more confidence in what 536 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 9: I'm doing. The match with knowledge was for me, it 537 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 9: was something really that I could never forget. But I 538 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 9: didn't have this physical form. I didn't know myself as 539 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 9: as a player. I didn't have the experience in the 540 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 9: in the Slams. So a lot of things changed and 541 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 9: that's why I think I feel more a better. 542 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 15: Player right now. 543 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 8: But Sety too strong. 544 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 9: There's gonna be a tough battle, I guess. 545 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 15: Of course. 546 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 9: Carlos, I think is the favorite coming here with two 547 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 9: master thousand unclay this season, tremendous form, and I think 548 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 9: you know he's the past champion, so he's the one 549 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 9: to beat. And I will try to take those past 550 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 9: matches with him this season as a lesson and try 551 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 9: to analyze more what I've done wrong and try not 552 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 9: to prepare better the match. It's gonna be also a 553 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 9: physical battle, but I think I'm ready you not to 554 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 9: battle everyone. 555 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 10: He has been just beautiful to watch, not just here, 556 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 10: but over the last couple of months or even last 557 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 10: twelve months. He's risen into the top ten, hasn't he Casey? 558 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 10: But can he get past Carlos out garades? 559 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 4: Oh? 560 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 11: I think it's going to be a really tough ask 561 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 11: for Mussetti. But look, he's playing really well. He's been 562 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 11: in the semi final of a major before at Wimbledon 563 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 11: last year, so he knows what to expect this time around. 564 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,719 Speaker 11: I just can't help but feel that, you know, El 565 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 11: Karraz has got way too much firepower. 566 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 5: He's got, you know, weapons left, right and center. 567 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 11: Does El Karaz And he's so good on this court 568 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 11: and on the clay at Roland Garras MUSSETI though, look, 569 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 11: he's serving much better. I feel like he's revamped his 570 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 11: serve and he and he's doing much a much better 571 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 11: job than you serve. I've been pleasantly surprised that one 572 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 11: handed back ends held up beautifully on the play. It 573 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 11: could be tough, you know with a one hander when 574 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 11: the ball gets above shoulder height. 575 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 5: But look, I do think El Karraz he's just going 576 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 5: to be too good. 577 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 6: Is that the key? What you've just touched on there? 578 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 6: The backhand, do you think? And the spin from. 579 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 10: Carlos because they've played a couple of times this season 580 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 10: with Carlos has has done the job on him. 581 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. 582 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 5: Oh, look, it's tough ball to hit. 583 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 11: When you sit courtside, you see El Karaz's ball and 584 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 11: the revolutions and how he's got that ability to get 585 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,959 Speaker 11: it above shoulder height. It's tough for Muzzetti to get 586 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 11: get out of that backhand corner. So look, I think 587 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 11: he's going to have to find some different ways to 588 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 11: find some forehands to move forward to, you know, get 589 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 11: on top of some of the points early in rallies. 590 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 11: It's a tough ass for him, but he's just going 591 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 11: to also have to play high risk tennis and throw 592 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 11: it all at ol Kaz and see what see what happens. 593 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 10: So just after ten o'clock tonight Australian Eastern Standard time, 594 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 10: you can catch, of course highlights, you can catch the 595 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 10: entire match and replay to suit your needs. Overnight it's 596 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 10: a big night at Tennis Head semifinals. Who wins this one, 597 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 10: Carlos or Muzzetti. 598 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 11: I think Carlos Alcarez wins for me, So I think 599 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 11: we'll see I think we'll see a Sinner versus Alcarez. 600 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 6: Wow, how good would that be? 601 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 10: To go with Coco Goff and Arena Satelinka the dream 602 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 10: tournament In many ways, Alex is not there, but that's 603 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 10: It's a pretty good light up, isn't it, hey, Casey, 604 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 10: enjoy the semifinals tonight, all right, We look forward to 605 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 10: reviewing them with you tomorrow.
