1 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: This is what you want to see, is that Alcaraz 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: Center on court. What a day to be a tennis fan, 3 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: What a day to be a sports fan. The men's 4 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: Roland Gallos not only lived up to the billing, but 5 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: it succeeded or all expectations. 6 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 2: It lived up to the hype. 7 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: It was better than my inches. 8 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: It was amazing. 9 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: Well, how do you even sum up how great this 10 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: match was? 11 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 2: It was extraordinary. The two best players in the world 12 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: right now delivering on the biggest stage. I go back 13 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 2: to nineteen eighty Borg McEnroe Wimbledon final. Two thousand and eight, 14 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 2: I think Roger and Raffad did battle at wimblin. It 15 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 2: was extraordinary. This was another match that it actually advances 16 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: the sport, It takes it to another level. And they're 17 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 2: great guys to boot. Apart from all the brilliant tennis 18 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: and everything that's on display, they're great characters and they're 19 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: wonderful representatives for tennis. 20 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: And it was played in such great spirit as you've 21 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: just referred to. But it was the level of the 22 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: tennis as well, wasn't it. It wasn't just a service on. 23 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: This had no no And look, they've got all facets 24 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 2: of the game covered. We're just seeing a couple of 25 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: little highlights there. But they've got theggressive offensive skills. They're 26 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: both solid as rock. They compete from start to finish. 27 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: They got racket head speed, they can kill the slow ball. 28 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 2: They came to the net and played some shoelace volleys 29 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 2: that some of the great serve volleys of all time 30 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: would be seriously happy with. So there was no facet 31 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 2: of the game that they didn't have covered. It was. 32 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 2: It was brilliant tennis. Not to mention the momentum swings 33 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 2: and the drama and the tension. 34 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: You know that ensued if you haven't seen the match, 35 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: given the timing of it overnight after you watch our show, 36 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: make sure you have a look back at it if 37 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: you haven't got five hours and twenty nine. 38 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 2: I've got a confession to make. I'm old. I felt 39 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 2: I was nodding off because the match was late in 40 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 2: the evening. I'm not off, so I think I'll get 41 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 2: up and I'll watch it in the morning, which I did. 42 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 2: I couldn't help myself. I looked at the result. I 43 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: was still nervous watching the replay. It was so gripping. 44 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: It had me sweating jumping off the couch and would 45 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: be the same for everyone at home. But if you 46 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: haven't seen it all, fine five hours twenty nine, or 47 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: watch the minis or the highlight versions of it here 48 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: on stan Sport. Watch it for days and days, because 49 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: it's one we'll be talking about forever. But let's unpack 50 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 1: it for you. We're going to walk our way through 51 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: it chronologically, so we'll start with the first set, Wally, 52 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: because it was Janick Sinner, the world number one, up 53 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: against the world number two, Carlos al Koraz, and it 54 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: was the one who started best. 55 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, Sinner did start a little crisp and we kind 56 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 2: of spoke about that. In his run to the final, 57 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 2: he's been absolutely on song, demolishing some serious players. This 58 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 2: match was on from the first point. The first point 59 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: was pretty gripping, and that's an early point in the match, 60 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: just sort of demonstrating the all court tennis that both 61 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: of these players displayed, and you know there's power on tap, 62 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: but then the defensive skills of these two players are 63 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: so awesome that the points are extended and all parts 64 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 2: of the court were covered in and there's Janik just 65 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 2: showing us another level to his game, and that's his 66 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: net play, and I think, you know, we've got to 67 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: give Darren Cahill some credit for that. So there's a 68 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: good first, solid first set, but it was Sinners. 69 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: Sinner took it six games to four. So into the 70 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: second set we go. Now, it hasn't been unusual for 71 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: Carlos Alkras to drop a set at this tournament. Sinner 72 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: hadn't dropped one at all going into this match. But 73 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: Sinner once again evenly matched, but Carlos starting to pick 74 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: up some momentum. 75 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: At this point. It's six three five three, yanicks in 76 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: and it's a good match. You're not disappointed because the 77 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 2: quality of the tennis is so good. But it looks 78 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: like Yannick has his measure. But what does Carlos do, 79 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 2: As so many great champions do, they fight, And there 80 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 2: is no question there was plenty of fight in Carlos. 81 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 2: They just got to look at this, I mean, have 82 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 2: a look at the skills on display in this particular point. 83 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 2: But Carlos did a great job just taking a little 84 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: bit out of Yannick by dragging this second set into 85 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 2: a tie break from five to three down. 86 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: So this is the tiebreak here and there was another 87 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: great point where Carlos just wouldn't give up. And this 88 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: is where we talk about the momentum. You've got to 89 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: feel that, Yeah, the scoreboard says he's behind, but in 90 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: terms of the play, there's just one or two moments 91 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: in it. 92 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 2: But you know, after all the great tennis and all 93 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 2: of I mean, the whole match was a highlight reel. 94 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 2: There's Sinner with a brilliant cross court forehand to take 95 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 2: the second set. So after all that, he's got nothing 96 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: to show for it. Has our good friend Carlos, now 97 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: a great clay courter, once said to me Yemovilos, who 98 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: was the Nadala his day, an absolute bull. He said 99 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: to me, while on clay, you haven't won until your 100 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: opponent knows he's lost. Carlos didn't know he'd lost. So 101 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: even though he's down two sets to love, the reservoir 102 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 2: of self belief is still there. 103 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: So into the third we go, and it's probably not 104 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: unexpected that Sinner's level, the intensity now with two sets 105 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: of love lead may drop and it was now all 106 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: on the shoulders of Carlos. 107 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 2: It's not a physical drop, but it's just so hard 108 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: to be at your very best for long periods of time, 109 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 2: so you give yourself that little bit of a pad 110 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 2: on the back. You're up two sets. The love slight 111 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 2: concentration laps at the other side of the court. Carlos 112 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: is thinking, come on, you know this is now, it's 113 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: getting serious. I've really got a fight. But you know what, 114 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 2: he had that little drop in the second at the start, 115 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 2: no question in Carlos maintained his level, so that was 116 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 2: to be expected. But then as we got to the deep, 117 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 2: you know, the back end of the third set, you've 118 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 2: got Carlos actually serving for it. What does Sinner do? 119 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 2: He finds a little something to bring it back to 120 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: on serve. So he's not going away either. He's striving 121 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 2: for the straight sets win. 122 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: So from our cras being three to one up, you 123 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: can see here this is our craz now just a 124 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: couple of points away from winning this third set. So 125 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 1: he's got Cinner on the back foot and just keeps fighting, 126 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 1: doesn't he. 127 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: And ultimately that we just saw an array of fourhands 128 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 2: there from Carlos, and ultimately that's probably what won in 129 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 2: this title. You know, there's a lot of things that 130 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: he did well, but that forehand. It's an absolute lass 131 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 2: suit and he used it to great effect throughout the 132 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 2: course of this match. 133 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: So this was the point here he had three set 134 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: points and puts it away. So now it's game on, 135 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: isn't it. And the crowd was invested by this point. 136 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think you know, the crowd would have 137 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: arrived at this match expecting great things. They would have 138 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: picked their man, you know, they would have had their favorite, 139 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: and obviously both European players are well supported. But now 140 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: they're just watching a great contest, and I think they're 141 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 2: full filled already because the tennis has been unbelievable. Now 142 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 2: they just want to see the theater. 143 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: It's already been worth the price of admission alone. So 144 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: into the fourth we go, and once again, momentum was 145 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: with Carlos Alcoraz. 146 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 2: It was, and you're starting to think, at some point 147 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: in this match, yes, there's gonna be a little concentration 148 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: laps as there might be a few unforced eras at 149 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: unusual times, But we go straight to. 150 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: The match green match three of them, So one saved. 151 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 2: Here's the second, Carlos serving five to three love forty 152 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 2: three in a row, two balls just going along and 153 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 2: I've got a bit of a theory on that stubbsy 154 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 2: that I'll expand on. Look at that that's just in 155 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 2: on match that clips the tape. How are those fines 156 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 2: are way to say three match point? I think if 157 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: you put a radar on Yannick's racket on those three points, 158 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: it's a little slower. I think there was an ounce 159 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: of tension, but why wouldn't there be. The nerves were gripping. 160 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: And the way al Koraz turned it around from love 161 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: forty there to fight off the three match points to 162 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: win that game, then all the pressure comes back on 163 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: to sinner yep. 164 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: And this is where the al Karez forehand is just 165 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 2: starting to do a little bit more damage. 166 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: It's just it's just getting cooler conditions. 167 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 2: They're getting cooler slightly, Yes, and it was a nice afternoon, 168 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: a little bit of breeze, but pretty pleasant for tennis. 169 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 2: But there's no question like Yannick hits aggressively to safe 170 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: parts of the court all the time. But when Carlos's 171 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:46,359 Speaker 2: forehand finds its mark, its power and accuracy and variety, 172 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 2: it's it's almost unplayable. And that's the sort of level 173 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: that he reached with that forehand in the in the 174 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 2: fourth set. 175 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 1: So Wally from saving three match points wrapping up the 176 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: fourth set in the tiebreak. It means, after two weeks 177 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 1: of tennis, one hundred and twenty eight players that started 178 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: the tournament, the whole thing comes down to a fifth 179 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: decisive set. And Sinner looked a little cooked at the start, 180 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 1: didn't he. 181 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 2: There was just a couple of moments where he was 182 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 2: a little bit proppy and I thought, is he starting 183 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 2: to cramp? 184 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 3: Ye? 185 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: It wasn't really the case, but he was definitely feeling 186 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 2: in the effects of this type of tennis where you 187 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: don't have to just move laterally, but there's forward and 188 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: back and players at full stretch defending. So the physicality 189 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 2: of this match was absolutely extraordinary. Carlos actually played I 190 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 2: think thirty two drop shots with great success off both wings. 191 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: Now this one here was we actually saw the cool, 192 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: calm collected Sinner get a little rattled. A couple of 193 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: points earlier, he'd actually bounced his racket, which we never see. 194 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 1: That ball was out on a serve. He didn't call 195 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: it even though he thought it might have been out, 196 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,119 Speaker 1: and Carlos won the match. But unusual to see Cinnaso rattled. 197 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was for him. Have a look 198 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: at that though, Yeah, rattled, but he certainly regrew pretty quickly, 199 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 2: and he does his own little fist pump. They're trying 200 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 2: and drag the crowd back into his favor. And once again, 201 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 2: look at Cinner his moments away, these moments away from 202 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 2: a victory. But Carlos, that all crack tennis and how 203 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 2: to kill the pace? This is what I'm talking about. 204 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: So I don't know how much time these guys train 205 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: at the net, but that's not an easy volley, let 206 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 2: alone under the pressure of the score. 207 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: Right, So Sinner two points away from winning the match. 208 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: Again here as our craz is serving to try and 209 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: send it to a tiebreaker. 210 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 2: So that back end winner came after a full stretched 211 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 2: defensive shot. So how to turn defense into attack in 212 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 2: the twinkling of an eye? Duds. 213 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: So this was the point to try and send it 214 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: into a tiebreak. Remember it's a ten point match tiebreak? 215 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: What do you think of that? 216 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 2: Which I'm not a fan of. But this match had 217 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 2: been so brilliant it almost needed closure. And how about 218 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: a little pass that lands inside the service box when 219 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 2: you're about five meters by. On the baseline, it was. 220 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: Hard to pick a winner, wasn't it, because they've both 221 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: been playing great tennis. The level was extreme going into 222 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: the tiebreak. But Olgraz found something he did. 223 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 2: I don't know where he drew the reserves to find 224 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: his very best tennis in the biggest moment, but he did. 225 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 2: And that's match point. What a way to finish on 226 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 2: a brilliant winner line. On the forehand, mind. 227 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: You, while he both men had never lost in a 228 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: Grand Slam final, they can handle an occasion. But what 229 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: does it mean? He's twenty two years of age, five 230 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: Grand Slam titles to his collection. 231 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 2: Now, yeah, I remember his coach, one Carlos Verrera, said, 232 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 2: this guy can break all sorts of records. He had 233 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: believe in him as a young teenager and he's starting 234 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 2: to deliver on that potential already. And there's the customary 235 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 2: hug to family and friends, support crew in the crowd. 236 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 2: But this, you know, great champions. They, as I said before, 237 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 2: they advanced the sport. They drag people who aren't necessarily 238 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 2: tennis fans. They drag the sport from the back page 239 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 2: to the front page. And these two men, you talk 240 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 2: about their age and the future that they have in 241 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 2: front of them. Let's hope they both stay healthy and 242 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 2: they got good people around them and they manage their careers. 243 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: Because what they did today was just exceptional. And you 244 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 2: know what matters to me too. It's like Rod and 245 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 2: raffa great rivalry, but great characters, you know, great with 246 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: the media, promoted the sport, wonderful role models. The contrasting 247 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: styles is probably was great with these two in terms 248 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: of game style. Carlos a little bit more creative, a 249 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 2: little bit more adventurous. But they are both tremendous people, 250 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 2: and I think that's important. I really really, I just 251 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 2: I couldn't get over this match. It blew me away. 252 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: Well, the records, it's the longest Grand Slam final at 253 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: Roland Gaos, the second longest Grand Slam final in history 254 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: to the one at the Australian Open Djokovic and Nadal 255 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: in twenty twelve. Sinner actually won one more point. Do 256 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: you think in that tiebreak in that fifth set, the 257 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: fact that he'd had that time off earlier in the year, 258 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: was Sinner perhaps a little more tired early in that 259 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: fifth or or our cra has just had that extra bit. 260 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: I you know, I kind of look at these two 261 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 2: guys and they're both brilliant movers and brilliant athletes, and 262 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 2: I just think maybe if you took them away from 263 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 2: tennis and had five or cive and disciplines that you 264 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 2: put them through in a distance sprint. I think Karls 265 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 2: is the slightly matter athlete and maybe that was just 266 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 2: what got him over the line today. I mean, Yannik 267 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: works awfully hard and he's lifting his physical potential all 268 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 2: the time. But Sinner, he will be disappointed, yes, twenty 269 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 2: four to forty eight hours, maybe for a few weeks, 270 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: who knows. But to build on this, I mean, yeah, 271 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 2: it's disappointing, but he put it into context and get perspective. 272 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: It was brilliant and maybe he just fires him up, 273 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 2: take him to another level. 274 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: Well, it begs the question too, as Carlos, you mentioned 275 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: the personality and what he brings to the sport and 276 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: bringing new fans in and the celebrations afterwards, even with 277 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: the ball kids were fantastic. Four wins in a row 278 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: he had over Siner leading into this match. Was it 279 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: a bit mental? Do you think as well? 280 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 2: When you get down to those margins five to three 281 00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 2: love forty. Look, you know, Yannick had some time off, 282 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 2: but and to me, he pressed a little bit. These 283 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 2: two guys played in the room final. Yannick pressed a 284 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 2: little bit and didn't quite execute in the big moments. 285 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 2: But he did nothing wrong today. It was just the 286 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 2: brilliance of Carlos in those big moments. And yeah, maybe 287 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 2: a little bit of tension crept in at love forty 288 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: on one of those four hands, but he's human. Everyone 289 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 2: will do that. I can't fault either player, I really can't. 290 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 2: And I think Yannick was Brelli at his best. Yeah, 291 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 2: and if he wasn't his best, he was the hair's 292 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 2: breath away from it. 293 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: Perhaps it wasn't tentioned for Yannick. It was the self 294 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: belief that those wins had given Carlos maybe more so. 295 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: Let's get some reaction, though, starting with the man who 296 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: has defended his title. He is the champion for Roland 297 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: Garros twenty twenty five. 298 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 4: Honestly, you know how hard you were chasing this this 299 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 4: tournament or every tournament. I'm pretty sure you. I mean, 300 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 4: you're gonna be champion, not once, but many many times. 301 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: It's previo. 302 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 4: Let you shut the coord with your uh in in 303 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 4: every in every tournament, making making history with with you, 304 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 4: you are a huge expiation for the for the junk kids, 305 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 4: for everyone, for myself as well. I have to say 306 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 4: thank you to you for being such a great experiation. 307 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 4: So good luck and another best for for what coming. 308 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 4: I mean, I have to I have to realize that 309 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 4: I that I've done it. I think that's the that's 310 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 4: the first the first step. Honestly, the coincidence of winning 311 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 4: my fifth Grand Islam in the same age as Rahna Dalis, 312 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 4: I mean, it's I'm gonna say, that's the destiny. 313 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: I guess. 314 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 4: Uh, well, I prefer to win three sets, honestly. I mean, 315 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie. But when the situations are are 316 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 4: against you, let's say, let's say that you have to 317 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 4: you have to fight, keep keep fighting. Uh, I mean 318 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 4: we it is a Grand Slam final. It's no time 319 00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 4: to to be tired or it's not time to give. 320 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 4: It's time to to to keep fighting, trying to find 321 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 4: your moment you got your gould face again and just 322 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 4: and just go for it.

We we gave everything we had. 334 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 5: Some time ago we would have signed to be here. 335 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 5: So still an amazing tournament, even though it's very very 336 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 5: difficult now. 337 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 2: But it's okay. 338 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 6: Yeah. 339 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 2: I mean. 340 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 5: My family, the people who knows me, you know, they 341 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 5: are now they're helping me. 342 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: Know, it's. 343 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 5: You know, it's it's a giving at times, and sometimes 344 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 5: you you take something, no, and now it's my time 345 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 5: to take something from from the close people I have, 346 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 5: So they would for sure be happy that I come 347 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 5: back home with my family, with everyone. So we are 348 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 5: just a very simple family. You know, my dad was 349 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 5: not here because he was working you know today, so 350 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 5: you know, so it's nothing of our success changes you know, 351 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 5: in the family. So it was nice to see my 352 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 5: mom here. And yeah, I guess my dad he was 353 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 5: watching on TV if you finished the work. So it's okay. 354 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 5: You know. It's always said before my career started, I 355 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 5: never would have thought to find myself in this position. 356 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 5: And now this was not even a dream, you know, 357 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 5: because it was so far and was not thinking about this. 358 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 5: So and now I find myself here playing the longest 359 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 5: match in history of Ronanga Ross in a final. So 360 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 5: it hurts this, yes, but in other way, you cannot 361 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 5: keep going crying, you know. So it happens. 362 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 2: We saw a less than sparkling press conference yesterday, but 363 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 2: how well did both those players speak, and of course 364 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: not in their native tongue. Interesting, he said, Dad may 365 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 2: have watched it on TV if he got home from 366 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 2: working time. So it kind of speaks to a really 367 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 2: normal upbringing and the humility that both these players have. 368 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 2: And that's what I talked about before. To have great 369 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 2: champions and also great characters I think is important. 370 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, and also interesting too that he referred to I 371 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: would have signed up for this because his future in 372 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: tennis was very cloudy six eight months nine months ago 373 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: with the doping. 374 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: Can you refer, of course to the doping case, and 375 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 2: you can only imagine the tension and the anxiety that 376 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 2: he must have been carrying. And there's been a few 377 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 2: people in the locker room that haven't been overly friendly 378 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,479 Speaker 2: towards him, have made some comments, you know, directed that 379 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 2: the process was a little inconsistent, and maybe Yannick, because 380 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 2: of his ranking and his celebrity, maybe assents, but I 381 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 2: guess he spoke about the people that are close to 382 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: him and the people that know him, and they're the 383 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 2: people that he will lean on. 384 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, so well, so well handled a defeat, crushing defeat. 385 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: And yes, SABLANKI yesterday you referred to that. She did 386 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: address that on her social media if you want to 387 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: have a look at that, and just tried to clear 388 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: up what she was meaning, how how hurt she was 389 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 1: good some of the comments about Coco's victory with great delight, 390 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: though our man Duncan McKenzie mccau has caught up with Carlos. 391 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 7: Our chiz, Carlos, congratulations one of the greatest comebacks in 392 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 7: Grand Slam Final history.

She had 533 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 2: a knee reconstruction that was a year ago, started playing 534 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 2: a couple of months ago, got a wild card into 535 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 2: the tournament and just lit up Chatrier's two top ten 536 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 2: players in a Ropagoula and Andreva. And you know what 537 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 2: I love about it, Stubbsy. You know, because a lot 538 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 2: of the women play a similar game style, got a 539 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 2: real point of difference. She's a little Moresmo like. She's 540 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 2: got this strong forehand, dominates the court with that forehand 541 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 2: and you can just see she's builtubs herself. She is ripped, 542 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 2: she's done the work. But just a fantastic story played 543 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 2: of emotion. Unfortunately, her tornent was over after she beat Andreva. 544 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 2: It was a bridge too far against Coco Gough. But 545 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: wish her the best going forward. I think yes, ranking as. 546 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, three sixty one to sixty five, so she's locked. 547 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: That's a good That is awesome. 548 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: Can I get your best Aussie something on the Ossie. 549 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 2: Best Ozsi Stubsy you know me.

And I 559 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 2: didn't believe there was some more good news for Daria Wally. 560 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: You mentioned that she's an engaging person.

Why would you 567 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 2: do that? 568 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: Woll It's not even let's not even go there. That's 569 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: a whole other episode in itself. I love both, just quietly. 570 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: Your funny moment from this year's Wrong Ago. 571 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 2: Okay, well there are a few, but Hoko, of course 572 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 2: the champion, and what a great champion she is. See 573 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: here she is being led out onto court and she's 574 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 2: got everything, got the headphones, got all the bags, equipment, 575 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 2: got the leather jacket, rocking the leather jacket, which is 576 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 2: quite a look, Stubbs. A lot goes into playing tennis. 577 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 2: You've got to be prepared mentally and physically, and you 578 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 2: need rackets. You do hand you need rackets. It's a 579 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: little own fact that you can't go on and there 580 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 2: they are. So I'm not quite sure what happened. She 581 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 2: said that there was weight in her bag and she 582 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 2: felt like, yeah, that's racket. Wait, but I kind of 583 00:29:58,600 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 2: think you'd know if you're missing six. 584 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 1: You know what you say to that, Wally? She who 585 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: laughs last, laughs loudest. Yes, So I think she'll cop 586 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: that one, yep, because she copped the trophy in the end. 587 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 2: So maybe she relies on her coach to put the 588 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 2: records in the bag. But you know, it's always down 589 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 2: to you yourself. 590 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: Hey, Wally, Yes, thank you mate for the last two weeks. 591 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 2: Thoroughly enjoyed it. 592 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 1: It has been so good to have you back, and 593 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: we are grateful that things at home allowed you with 594 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: some health issues in the family.
