1
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: Everybody, and good morning for us. We decided to do

2
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: this in the morning today because we were all living

3
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 1: to tad last night. But we are here to give

4
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: you a wrap up of Day eleven of the Australian Open.

5
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: Wow oh wow, oh wow. What a couple of matches

6
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: we had yesterday. Certainly there was one or two that

7
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: were really great and ones that were a little bit shocking.

8
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 2: So I want to kind of start with the shocking

9
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: one first.

10
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: Peto, I know we start with one of the first

11
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: one of the day, but I have to talk about

12
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: last night's match with Alcaraz and Zverev. What the fricking

13
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: hell was Alcaraz's game plan last night?

14
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 2: It was just so bad.

15
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 3: Well yes, I mean, I don't know what else to say,

16
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 3: but yes, we watched it together and we were yelling

17
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 3: at the TV a lot, and not necessarily because Zverev

18
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 3: was playing a great match and al Karas was not

19
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 3: playing well. It was the game plan, right, because you

20
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 3: sometimes as a tennis player, you can't quite control how

21
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: well you are going to play.

22
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 2: You just have off days.

23
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 3: You have days where your feet are not working, where

24
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 3: you don't see the ball as clearly, and these are

25
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 3: all things that you can somewhat control, and that's what

26
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 3: we do in training and preparation and how we eat

27
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 3: and when we sleep and all these things. But there

28
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 3: are just days that are a little bit off, but

29
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 3: that doesn't matter because the game plan you can always

30
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 3: somewhat control.

31
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 2: And he was going with.

32
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 3: Every serf, with every backhand, with every sitter into Zasha's backhand,

33
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 3: who we all know, and I think even people who

34
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: don't play tennis and follow tennis now that Verev has

35
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 3: a way better back end and a much worse forehand,

36
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: and so just game plan wise, it was mesmerizing Jim Corea,

37
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: who was calling the match a great analysis, like always

38
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 3: he's so good, but he kept saying he just seems

39
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: flustered mentally, he can seem to think clearly, and despite

40
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 3: him turning the third set around, I said, I don't

41
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: think he's going to win today. He just looks completely

42
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 3: up and very well. You know, Sasha, he choked, Yes

43
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: he choked, he got tight, but he won't do it again.

44
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 3: You know, if you give him the opportunity to come back,

45
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 3: he won't do it twice. He won't do it three times.

46
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: And he didn't. He served it out and he played

47
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 2: well well.

48
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: He didn't get the chance to choke it and do

49
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: what he did in the third set because he didn't

50
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: have to hit fourhands under pressure, and so that's the

51
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: thing that just was just we were so bemused watching it.

52
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, does this guy know that Sasha's back end

53
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: is literally one of the best ever. Yeah, Like, he

54
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 1: doesn't miss his back end. He can hit it anyway,

55
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: can go lying, no cross court.

56
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 2: He can put.

57
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: Power through it, which is sometimes what gives Carlos some problems.

58
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: Is the ball coming right hard through the court, but

59
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: with the forehand was very It's always going to be

60
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: with top spin.

61
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: It may he can't. I'm not saying that he.

62
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: Can't hit a good forehand, but the likelihood have been

63
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 1: messing backhands and not being as aggressive with the back

64
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: end is not going to happen. He's going to continue

65
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: to hit his backhand where his forehand. You can see

66
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: his mind is like ticking over. Oh my god, do

67
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,239
Speaker 1: I go cross? Do I play safe? He was shanking

68
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: and when he lost the game, serving for it, he

69
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: didn't serve a great game, but he also was missing forehands.

70
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: So I don't understand why Alcaraz, who there's no question,

71
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,119
Speaker 1: was flustered and was like complaining in the first couple

72
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: of sets, which he never does. Why he didn't see, Oh,

73
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: I got back into the set because I played the

74
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: guy's forehand and came into the net a little bit,

75
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I'm into the four set.

76
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: I don't understand what he didn't stick with that game plan.

77
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: That was the most shocking probably of the whole thing,

78
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: because as I said, Sasha was playing a great match,

79
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 3: and I have to say one thing that jumped at

80
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 3: me yesterday. I do think Tallos has still one thing

81
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 3: that he needs to improve, because we see these players

82
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: like Zverev who bother him, Novak who bother him. He

83
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 3: doesn't really have a flat inside in forehand. He can

84
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 3: flatten it out inside out, but he doesn't really. He

85
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 3: always plays it with a bit of loop and spin.

86
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,239
Speaker 3: The ball that like jumps and moves out the court,

87
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 3: which is great against most of the guys out there,

88
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 3: but against Veref and Novak who moves so well and

89
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 3: who have the type of forehand who need a little

90
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 3: time to get under it.

91
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: That like that moving ball into especially forehand, because and

92
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: he can still somehow put it back and get back

93
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,119
Speaker 1: into the point.

94
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 3: And that's one thing he needs to work on, I think,

95
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: is to learn how to flatten it. And that's why

96
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 3: he was playing all these terrible job shots because he

97
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 3: could feel that he can the inside out. The flat

98
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 3: one is not working because Verev has the best backhand

99
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 3: that ever cross this earth maybe and the forehand inside

100
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 3: in he's not making winners because Veref gets underneath it

101
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,799
Speaker 3: and he's really really fast for such a tall guys,

102
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 3: is an incredible mover, and he gets underneath it and he.

103
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 2: Doesn't have the flat inside in.

104
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 3: And I kept yelling at him, do Ana Ivanovitch, Do

105
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: Anna Ivanovitch because she had the best inside in flat

106
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 3: forehand and I'm not expecting him to hit the ball

107
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 3: as flat as Ana Ivanovitch did, but Anna had this

108
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,119
Speaker 3: inside in fourhand that could put anybody on the back foot,

109
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 3: and it was so hard to control. And he just

110
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 3: needs something in between Carlos al Karaz and if he

111
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 3: wants to beat the Novaks and Verev's on a regular basis,

112
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 3: he can beat them, but he needs to play really well.

113
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 2: We saw it with Zev a few times.

114
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 3: Now. He's three five now, in the head to hat

115
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 3: and when he has beaten Zev, either Zverev had a

116
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 3: really tough five setter, like at the US Open when

117
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 3: he played five sets against Janick Sinna, or he had

118
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,679
Speaker 3: a schedule issue in Madrid when he played until three am,

119
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 3: so he was always like kind of tired, and Carlos

120
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 3: had to play really well. So clearly the matchup is

121
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 3: not working for him and he needs to figure something

122
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 3: out if he wants to beat him on a regular

123
00:05:58,760 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: basis in the future.

124
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it was just crazy.

125
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: I honestly, I thought when he won the third set,

126
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: he was going to win, and Sasha was struggling with

127
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: it looked like blisters on his right foot because.

128
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 2: He was you know, he ran up for one drop shot.

129
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: In the middle part of the fourth set and he

130
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: grimaced like and he wasn't sliding.

131
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 2: He ran through the ball.

132
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: And when you run through the ball, it's either because

133
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 1: you you don't you don't want to put pressure on

134
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: your you know, whatever problem you have, whether it be

135
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: at your ankle or your you know, toes or your

136
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: knees or whatever it is, you just sort of like

137
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: keep running. And he was doing that, So I'm like dude,

138
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: like your your dude down the other end is like

139
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: starting to physically struggle a little bit, and here you

140
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: are playing his best shot. Like I was just blown

141
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 1: away how frankly dumb Carlos was last night, you know.

142
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I still put a little bit

143
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: down his youth where he's sort of like.

144
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 2: Not really thinking clearly.

145
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if Carlos, if one Carlos Ferrera would

146
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: have been there just screaming shit at him, because one

147
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: Carlos is so like vocal with him.

148
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 2: I just wonder if he needed, like literally someone to be.

149
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: Like, dude, remember what side's really good on his and

150
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: not play it. It was the same as like a

151
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: couple of matches over the last few days that we've watched,

152
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: whether it be Marto Costure playing it to you know,

153
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: Coco's back end under pressure, whether it be various different players,

154
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 1: and you're just like, why can you not understand stick

155
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: with the weaker shot until they stop beating.

156
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: You with it?

157
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 3: Like that's exactly what Jim said yesterday, and he said

158
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 3: it about the surf, but I think it's a it's

159
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 3: appliable to or applicable to anything. He said, So Zveref

160
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: on the outside loves the down the teams, and everyone

161
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 3: knows it.

162
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 2: And there are stats about it, and I think.

163
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 3: Literally everybody knows that if you play Sashazrev that he

164
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 3: likes the on the outside, the tea surf with a

165
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 3: little bit of slice. And so when Carlos had a breakpoint,

166
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 3: and he had a breakpoint early on the second set,

167
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 3: it happened a couple of times. Knows how the match

168
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 3: goes if he wins the second set, because he was

169
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 3: down one, six, three six. They had only played an hour.

170
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: And that's when you panic, right when you are down

171
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: two sets and you've only played an hour. You haven't

172
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 3: found your rhythm, you haven't found your footwork, and all

173
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 3: of a sudden you're already down two sets. And he

174
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 3: had an early breakpoint, and Jim said, before the serve

175
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 3: was hit, you have to close down the tee, have

176
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 3: him beat you with his weaker side, and Carlos didn't.

177
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 3: Zvere faced him down the tee and then he won

178
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 3: the set six to three. And it just shows you

179
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 3: the loss of clarity he had yesterday, just not seeing clearly.

180
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 3: And I think Jim said it, this is the first

181
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 3: time we see some kind of junior Carlos al Karaz.

182
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 3: We think of him as so maturely because he's so

183
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: talented and so good.

184
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: I mean, guys won two Grand Slams already at his age.

185
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 2: It's pretty spectacular.

186
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: But yeah, yesterday was a confusion.

187
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 3: Yesterday was a good tactical not a good tactical approach.

188
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 2: This guy Zverev, What the fuck? I mean?

189
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: He's got all this shit going on in his life.

190
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 1: You know, in May he's supposed to be in court,

191
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: he's like, you know, contesting this fine, this fee that

192
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: he has to pay. I mean, there's a lot going

193
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: on in his in his after off the court life,

194
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: and he just keeps winning and tournaments keep promoting him,

195
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: and it's just.

196
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 2: Like, what the hell I mean? Wow.

197
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 3: Well, one sports psychologist said something really interesting to a

198
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 3: new one time. I was struggling with something private too,

199
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 3: and I couldn't win any matches and I was just

200
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 3: under so much the ress and pressure and just couldn't

201
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 3: separate it, basically, And he said to me, there are

202
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 3: two types of people, especially athletes. There are some who

203
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 3: bring their private problems with them on court and they

204
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 3: just can't find the clarity and focus to perform their best.

205
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 3: You me, for example, and there are other athletes who

206
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 3: feel the safest on the tennis court, or on the

207
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,439
Speaker 3: football pitch, or on the soccer pitch, whatever you may

208
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 3: call it, where they this is the one place they

209
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 3: can escape their private problems, right, and that's why they

210
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 3: performed the best. And when the first allegations came up

211
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 3: against Asha Zverev, he won two tournaments and now he's

212
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 3: playing incredible again. He played really well at United Cup

213
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 3: and maybe this is what it feels like to him,

214
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 3: like a safe space, and that's why. And he played

215
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 3: a great match. And I have to say one thing

216
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 3: about him. That guy is really pain resilient.

217
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 2: He is a tough motherfucker, really, like you can say

218
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: a lot.

219
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: I think that's the Russian in him.

220
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 2: Probably it's certainly not the Germans. That's my point. I

221
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 2: didn't want to say that in front of you.

222
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: But you're also got you know, Serbian parents, so you

223
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: have a little tough motherfucker in you as well, because

224
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: I think that's also part of your DNA.

225
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we saw it with Seblenka's Belar Russian obviously,

226
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 3: but we saw it with Saballenka in a different manner,

227
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 3: and Zef had the yips too, and he just went

228
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 3: about his business, just continued and everyone was making fun

229
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 3: of him.

230
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 2: And laughing at him.

231
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: Some people would have broken down, like santril Anka and

232
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: z but you just think that's that dogged like determination

233
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: and just his upbringing and whatever. But anyway, so anyway,

234
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 1: that was a huge upset in some respects, but in

235
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: some respects it wasn't because of the head to head

236
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: and yeah, just.

237
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 3: The way that such and we both are a strong

238
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 3: believer and had to head. So we keep bringing up

239
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 3: there is a reason players put you. When you see

240
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 3: a head to head like that, you can tell that

241
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 3: this particular player puts Carlos in uncomfortable positions. And then

242
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 3: it's our job as an analyst to look at the

243
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 3: match and see why. And yesterday I saw a thing

244
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 3: with this forehand inside out that I thought was one

245
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 3: reason inside in.

246
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: Sorry, there was one of the reasons.

247
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 3: There are many other reasons because of the backhand flat,

248
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,439
Speaker 3: the flat shot from Zasha and many other reasons.

249
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: Great surf. He keeps him.

250
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: You know, he's in control of the service points from

251
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 1: the beginning. He serves a lot, you know, to the forehand,

252
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,839
Speaker 1: which normally you know, you get in trouble with Carlos

253
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: because he has such a great fuehand, but his serf

254
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: goes away from his forehand. It really slides away, and

255
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: so with his grip, and and he's not the tallest

256
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: Carlos and so it's like moving away from him. On

257
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 1: the other hand, he's going to have to serve really

258
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: well in the next match, because Daniel Medvedev, what a

259
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: freaking match that was. Oh my god, has Hubei her

260
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: couch played more matches to go the distance, whether it

261
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: be three sets or five sets.

262
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 2: I was just surprised they didn't play more taybreaks. It

263
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 2: was just one time break. I feel like nominal. It

264
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 2: was hot at least seven I.

265
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: Think it was so hot yesterday that they were getting

266
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: a bit flustered, and particularly Daniel Medvedev said that after

267
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: the second set he was dead died, and it was

268
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: it was quite hot when they were playing, so I

269
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: think it was just a matter of our shit, like

270
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 1: how much do I want to fight to get back.

271
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 2: Into this set.

272
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: So when I went to the fifth it was and

273
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: it was really incredible tennis and Daniel Medvedev pulled out

274
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: some just crazy shit at the end to win that match,

275
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: and I loved this. What the hell was that? A

276
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: drop shot on match point? It was like, we're all

277
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: in the green room, like go to the net, Like,

278
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: go to the net. He's like no, He's like runs

279
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: into there and he decides to hit a drop shot

280
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: off beforehand. And he even said it in the postmatch

281
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: interview to Jim. He's like, hey, you like my drop

282
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: shot on match point?

283
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 2: I mean, the guys.

284
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: Guy is such a character, it's unbelievable.

285
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 2: But what do you think?

286
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: I want to talk about the matchup a little bit

287
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: with Medvedev and like, what are your thoughts on that one?

288
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 2: Well, it's really interesting.

289
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 3: They seem to be running into each other every single tournament.

290
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 3: It feels like every single tournament they are playing each other,

291
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 3: and so far in Medvedev is winning those matches, but

292
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 3: they are always really close. They are six four in

293
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 3: the third, seven five and the third, and they are

294
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 3: ugly at times, not all of them, but the Indian

295
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: World's match was ugly, the Monte Carlo match was ugly.

296
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: The Cincinnati match was terrible, absolutely atrocious. So it's going

297
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 3: to be interesting to see. I think they both don't

298
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 3: like playing each other, you know, And it will be

299
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 3: really interesting to see whether Medvedev will be affected by

300
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 3: the Netflix portrayal of him, where Netflix kind of portrayed

301
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 3: him as the villain and who had to overcome to

302
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 3: get this to his comeback or something.

303
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it. It's just why I've paid as well.

304
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it either.

305
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: But how can you make anyone out to be the

306
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: villain other than Sveref?

307
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 2: Like? What is your problem? Netflix?

308
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: Are you getting me the guys up for? Like, oh

309
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: my god, anyway, we won't get into that. I know

310
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: you probably want us all to get into that, give

311
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: us the juice, But I think the fact that they

312
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: made Medvedev out to be the villain in that situation

313
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 1: is just hilarious.

314
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 2: Well, and that we will see.

315
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 3: I don't think he thinks about these things that much,

316
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 3: but still he might. He might have an extra motivation

317
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 3: to try and win this. I think Medvedev looked brilliant

318
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 3: at times. I do think he looked a little bit patchy.

319
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 3: And what I mean by that that well, yeah, he

320
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 3: had always had sets where he played really bad or

321
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 3: patches of play where he played really, really bad, and

322
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 3: I think Sasha is playing very solid and I'm not

323
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 3: sure he can afford that against Usha at this tournament.

324
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 2: But don't you think that he won't do that.

325
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: I think he knows that he could be a little

326
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: bit patch against Ruby, just because Hub's a great player,

327
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, but he knows that Hubi also gets.

328
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 2: A little tight.

329
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: He's not, you know, not quite as solid from the

330
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: back of the court all the things.

331
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 2: Right now.

332
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: Hub also has an amazing serve. But I think that

333
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 1: he'll be switched on for this match because he knows

334
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: exactly what he's going to get to me. It was

335
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: hilarious yesterday. It looked like Zverev when he was playing

336
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: the match towards the end, it looked like he was

337
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: the guy that like they forgot to when you went

338
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: out to the desert for a walk, or you went

339
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: up like Medvedev when you went out for a walk

340
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: up the mountains, you went for a hike, you know,

341
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: and you're like, hey, man.

342
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 2: Where hey, where did Zverev go? I mean, where did

343
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 2: Medvedev go?

344
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're supposed to bring him with? Wait,

345
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: Oh my god, we've lost him. And then five days

346
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: later he comes walking out of the desert like he's

347
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: like sunburn and his face is like got third degree

348
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: burns on and these hair is all over the place.

349
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: He's like, guys, you left me out there, I swear.

350
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 2: And the fifth set, that's what he looked like.

351
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: It was no hat, clearly no sunscreen. He's gonna have

352
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: like third degree burns on his nose, on the side

353
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: of his face. He just cracks me up, cracks me up.

354
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I mean, I'm obviously.

355
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,479
Speaker 1: Calling for him to win that semi final.

356
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 2: Well, and he did.

357
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 3: I thought that the US Open he did a similar thing.

358
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: We don't know yet, but at the US Open he

359
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 3: looked really patchy, and all his matches always had stretches

360
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 3: of matches always had stretches of play where he looked

361
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 3: really really bad. And when media dev looks bad, he

362
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 3: looks terrible. I'm sorry. And then he played the match

363
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 3: of the tournament in my opinion, against Carlos Alchoraz, because

364
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 3: Carlos was playing well, yeah, and media def really went

365
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 3: out of his comfort zone, came to the net, played

366
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 3: the aggressive and deserve to win. That match was so

367
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 3: so good in that semi final, and maybe he will

368
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 3: do the same against Sasha.

369
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 2: Sasha in two days, yes, and two days.

370
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 3: So tomorrow we have recording a day later, so tomorrow

371
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 3: they will play. But again, Zverev looking more solid than ever,

372
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 3: and he's he's doing well.

373
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 2: He plays well in Australia.

374
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know he's he's under investigation still, so

375
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: he's gonna keep playing well. He's got to pay those bills. Anyway,

376
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 1: Let's get to the Chiky babies. Yestremska look great yesterday

377
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 1: against Nskova. I mean, Nskova was definitely a little bit

378
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: ob viously it certainly didn't play as you know well,

379
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 1: But also you have to think that poor old Maskova,

380
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: you know, she gets that great win over Eger, goes

381
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: out against uh could keep on playing Switzerlana, thank you God,

382
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 1: goes out against Switzerlana and gets the default essentially at

383
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: three love. You know, a lot of us would be like,

384
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: oh great, you know, you don't have to play a

385
00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 1: long taxing match.

386
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 2: But I think that hurt her.

387
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 3: I said the same thing, and so interesting that you

388
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 3: say that because she was in the first Well, I

389
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 3: said the same thing, and I was sitting with Radek Stepanek,

390
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 3: I had lunch with him, was playing the doubles legends

391
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 3: and his dad discovered Noskova.

392
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 2: I didn't know, but he.

393
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 3: There from the same town in Czech Republic, and his

394
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,959
Speaker 3: dad discovered her basically and was her coach. And Radek

395
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 3: told me, no, it's the best thing that happened to her,

396
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 3: because I said exactly the same thing.

397
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 2: He said.

398
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 3: She had a billion phone calls, a billion messages, she

399
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 3: didn't sleep one minute after that win against IGASCIONTEG, and

400
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 3: she was just like a bird on electricity, basically, And

401
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 3: he thought that it would have been really, really a

402
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 3: big challenge for her to beat Suitolina that day unless

403
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 3: Suitelina had somehow either self distructed or gotten injured. But

404
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 3: he said that the day and a half after she

405
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 3: beat Ega were really rough in a great way, but

406
00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 3: so much energy.

407
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: Wasted on just being excited and answering.

408
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 3: And she's nineteen, and she's so nice and she's nineteen,

409
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 3: And I have to say, in terms of matchup, the

410
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 3: big hitters hate to play big hitters.

411
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 2: Ye.

412
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 3: That's like, for example, Camilla Georgie, the player she loses

413
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 3: to are you would think are somebody who plays, you know,

414
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,959
Speaker 3: the Vincies of the world, Paulinis. But actually she loses

415
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 3: to the Pliskovas, she loses to the Rebeccinas, she loses

416
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 3: to the Saballeenkas. Now she's not at her top form,

417
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 3: Georgie is, but when she was playing her really great matches,

418
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 3: she would have always lose to Carolina. She would always

419
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 3: lose to the big hitters. And big hitters. The reason

420
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 3: they hit big is they don't want to be running

421
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 3: around and they don't want to be dictated that they

422
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 3: want to dictate. And you could see a Stremska hits

423
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 3: the ball almost bigger than.

424
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: Oh my god, not almost one hundred percent more. It

425
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 1: was like she was like seven miles an hour harder

426
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: at least with her ground stroke speed, and Oscar hits

427
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 1: the all big and Extremska is just hummeling the ship

428
00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: out of the ball.

429
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 2: I mean that's food qualifying and.

430
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: Battled in collies like one every match in qualifying in

431
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: three sets. She also was ninety three in the world,

432
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: so she technically in the main drawer, but because of

433
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 1: all the special rankings like Angie Kerber no Amosaka, well,

434
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: Naomi got a wild card didn't she I don't know,

435
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: but there were definitely some people in the draw with

436
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: special rankings, so it would have been interesting to see

437
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: without those special rankings people getting in. Would she have

438
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 1: got in into the main draw on her own? And

439
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: where would she be if she hadn't played colleagues in

440
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: some respects, because she's the type of player that if

441
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: she plays a lot of matches now she's seen the

442
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: ball really well and she's not overplaying and not overhitting,

443
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: and I mean she's still overhits sometimes, but you know,

444
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 1: she's that's her little structure, a little more structure and

445
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: also being tired. I think helps players like that because

446
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: they don't want to run around. Yeah, they go for

447
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: it and they're seeing the ball, so be it's she's

448
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: going to be. I'm telling you she's not going to

449
00:20:59,320 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: be a rollover.

450
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 2: I mean, she's two wins away from pulling a ratal Carnu.

451
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: And I said nat will never ever ever happen again.

452
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: And I cannot believe that I could be completely and

453
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: utterly wrong. She's got to win two matches and she

454
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: can do it.

455
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 2: She can do it because she has the game. She

456
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 2: can hit anybody.

457
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: Stuff her serve is a little bit the only thing

458
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: with her service.

459
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 2: She can hit it really well, but.

460
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: There are patches where she because her technique is not great.

461
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 2: And I just want to say something on this Kova.

462
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: We know that she was a part of the Melanie

463
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: Malleto little group, so maybe when she met left Stephan

464
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 1: Stepanek's dad, she went to Melanie Molodor who completely fucked

465
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 1: her game up because her serve is woeful.

466
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 2: Because Melanie Molitor does not.

467
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: Teach good technique on the serf in particular, the ground

468
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: is are one thing, but on the serf she believes

469
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: that you know, girls can't hit kick serves and all

470
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 1: this sort of stuff. I mean, I've spoken to a

471
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: couple of Czech coaches and she is.

472
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 2: First of all, she's rudle on these plays.

473
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: And apparently Noscova like bailed out of that training camp

474
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: because she was just like it was too much. But

475
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 1: also the technique that she has now you know, implemented

476
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 1: into Naskova's game is what hurts her because her elbow

477
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 1: could not be any lower on her serf. So I

478
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: know that's a work in progress for her current coaches.

479
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 2: But geez, I'll.

480
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,439
Speaker 1: Tell you what That's the one thing about Melanie Molodol.

481
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: She's got to just realize that the worst part of

482
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: her daughter's game, So don't teach a surf. And she

483
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: teases the same serve to everybody like ben chic Noskova.

484
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 2: It's I think she improved it quite well.

485
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 3: But the the thing with Moscow is that in the

486
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 3: when she played Ego, she played at night. I think

487
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 3: the roof was closed. It's definitely easier to serve at

488
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 3: night than rot labor arena. The breeze settles down.

489
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 2: She's checked.

490
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 3: They love indoors, yes, exactly, it feels a bit more indoors.

491
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 3: And then even if your surf has maybe a little

492
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 3: bit of a glitch and the technique, even.

493
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 2: I could serve indoors, you know, and I had a

494
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 2: terrible serf.

495
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 3: But then with my son, with the wind, with the heat,

496
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,359
Speaker 3: that's when when things can go off. And yes, Jamska

497
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,239
Speaker 3: was the better player yesterday, absolutely, and the way she

498
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 3: served it out was really impressive.

499
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 1: And a little good thing that she did before the

500
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 1: serving out of the game, she took out a note.

501
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,959
Speaker 1: You know, obviously all players we write down, like you know,

502
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: all the things that we want to remember under stress,

503
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 1: whether it be you know, take your time before the serve,

504
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: make sure you go for your inside out fourhand, whatever

505
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: it is, it's all written there, or maybe there's a

506
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: game plan specifically in there for the person you're playing.

507
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: So I thought it was great that she sat down

508
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: and didn't rely on looking at her coach and her

509
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 1: mom and like thinking about everything. She got the piece

510
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 1: of paper out, read the piece of paper, walked down

511
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: that end, and served a brilliant game and executed really well.

512
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: And so I think it's because she had that.

513
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: Very clear, clear game plan she read her like somebody else.

514
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 1: Unlike Alcaraz, he should have had a bloody piece of

515
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: paper in front of him last night saying just hit

516
00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: it to the forehand.

517
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 2: No, no, he should have had a book that just repeated.

518
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: Over and over again, what you do when you used

519
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: to get in trouble at school. I will not talk me.

520
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 2: I will not by Simpsons.

521
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it should have just mean you have to play

522
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: to his forehand. You have to play to his forehand.

523
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Anyway, let's not get into that again.

524
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: So Strenskat is through and the evening match was Kalinskaya

525
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 1: against Chinwin Jung and what a what an interesting match

526
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: that was. I think the thing that we loved about

527
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: that much more than anything was how well behaved they

528
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: both were both unbelievable.

529
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 3: We were talking about it in the books, so I

530
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 3: called it for Worldfield, you call it for ESPN, And

531
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 3: we kept talking about when chin Win lost the first set,

532
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 3: how calm she looked on the on the bend.

533
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 2: She didn't panically look up at her coach.

534
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 3: She just closed her eyes tried to find the way

535
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 3: to win this match, and the same on the other side.

536
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 3: In the end, Anna got, I think, very tired. She

537
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 3: had played a lot of tennis, and you could see

538
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 3: she had her hip, hip or thigh was bothering her

539
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 3: a little bit. That's when she started to get a

540
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 3: bit flustered about the birds and the seagulls and girlfriend, yeah.

541
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 2: They ain't going away.

542
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 3: Yes, there was like at the very end when she

543
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 3: was down one four and Chinwin was playing so well

544
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 3: that it felt like because they were really close and level,

545
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, the paths just divided and

546
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 3: Anna got slightly worse, slightly dropped her level, and Chin

547
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 3: Wen just raised on a completely different standard. And it

548
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 3: was really mesmerizing to see how she came back from

549
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 3: And honestly, the most pressure in that top half is

550
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 3: on Chinwn and she's only twenty one years old.

551
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 2: And I said it in the booths too.

552
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 3: We think of her as this experienced player who was

553
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 3: going to make the final. Of course, why wouldn't she

554
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 3: She's so talented. Last year at the US Open was

555
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 3: her first quarterfinal. This is three months ago. Girlfriend has

556
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 3: not played that many quarterfinals and second weeks of Grand

557
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 3: Slam tournament, so she needs to find experience too, and

558
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 3: she handled it brilliantly. Were not her game, how much

559
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 3: damage it can do, but how she handled the situation

560
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 3: of being the highest seed left in the top half

561
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 3: with only her second Grand Slam quite a final.

562
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 2: Chapaul Man, I was so impressed.

563
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 1: I thought she served really well in the end, you know,

564
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,920
Speaker 1: and everyone could sort of critiques this funky service motion,

565
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: but I was saying last night, and I'm the first

566
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: to critique a service motion if I think it's shit.

567
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: But you know, the ball toss is a little funky.

568
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 1: She has the hitch on that and then the arm

569
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: gets a little bit weird. But when it gets into

570
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: the like sort of midway through the serve. It's a

571
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: really really good serve like trophy position with the elbows high.

572
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: Guys and all know how I feel about the elbow Noscoba,

573
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: but I think she gets the elbow pie which allows

574
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 1: her to go to pronate, to go to the back end,

575
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: or to slide it big down the tee, and she

576
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: hit some big serves in the end in.

577
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 2: The third set.

578
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: And also for those at home, the reason why she

579
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: hit like four or five incredibly difficult bounce smashes or

580
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: smashes out of the air overhead is fantastic because she

581
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: doesn't have to worry about the ball toss and her

582
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: technique is very good. The elbow is high. She could

583
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: and she didn't hesitate for one miller second in hitting

584
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: an overhead. And we know pet Go, a lot of

585
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: chicks don't necessarily under pressure like to hit it overhead.

586
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: They'd rather hit a drive volley and not this one.

587
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: She just puts that racket up there and just smashes

588
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: it just like Serena, like give it to me, and

589
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to hit it, and I'm going to make

590
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: it ninety nine percent of the time. And she did

591
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: that beautifully last night. But her composure, her ability to

592
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: not overplay. I think that's the one thing. Because she's

593
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: still young, she has so much power that sometimes she

594
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 1: pulls the trigger a little bit early. And I said

595
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 1: it in the coverage yesterday.

596
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 2: She has to.

597
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: Learn yellow light like, she has green light, red light like,

598
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: and she has to find the middle ground, which so

599
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: does Yustremska and you, Scrimpster, did that really well yesterday too.

600
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,160
Speaker 2: Under pressure.

601
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,919
Speaker 1: You don't always have to redline every single shot. You know,

602
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: in tennis, there is there is the orange light, stay

603
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 1: with the point, green light, go right, and she has

604
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: when she she started to do that really well in

605
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,199
Speaker 1: the third set and the end of the in the

606
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: tie break in the second set. Oh sorry, in the

607
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: second set, towards the end, she was really controlled with

608
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: when to go for it and then callan Sky on

609
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: the other hand, got a little bit frustrated because she

610
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 1: wasn't getting the errors and she wasn't getting those short balls,

611
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: and I just thought Chin went. The way she closed

612
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 1: that out yesterday was absolutely brilliant.

613
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 3: Yeah it was.

614
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 2: And just one thing.

615
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 3: On the second serve, she does tend to serve always

616
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 3: the slice that goes either into the body or into

617
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 3: the forehand.

618
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 2: I think that's why she says a lot of double files.

619
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 3: She's the woman remaining in the field that has served

620
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 3: the most double faults also the most aces so and

621
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 3: I think that's the reason she's struggling against Sablenka and

622
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 3: these big forehand players because if she they know it's coming.

623
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 3: Sablenka is waiting there already with the full swing to

624
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,479
Speaker 3: take a to take a full head at it. And

625
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 3: I think if she can incorporate a kick, especially on

626
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 3: clay Man, she will be very, very hard to beat.

627
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: She just got to get the ball toss back a

628
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: little bit on the second serve. It's really far ahead

629
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: of her on the first serve and then still far

630
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 1: ahead of her on the second serve. If she gets

631
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: the ball toss back just ever so slightly and then

632
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: gets that pronation and that kick, then she'll be fine

633
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: because she has the motion which is really important to

634
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: be able to hit the kickserf She's just got to

635
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 1: get her toss back, which I know her coach, Pera

636
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: Riba is going to probably work on.

637
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 2: I mean, the dude he grew.

638
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: Up on clay so he knows exactly how to hit

639
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 1: a kick serf, So I'm sure he's going to implement

640
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: that into a game and I'm excited for him me too.

641
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 3: And he son a week interviewed him just before the

642
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 3: match when he was in the box and he I

643
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 3: asked him, what did you work Is there something specific

644
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 3: that you work on in the off season and he

645
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 3: was like, oh, actually the forehand at the back end.

646
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 3: And I was like, oh, he still sees so much

647
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 3: upside to her game. There are still so many things

648
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 3: he's working on and there is and rightfully so. And

649
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 3: there wasn't like one thing that is still missing in

650
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 3: the reports, while he was like basically everything, and he said,

651
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 3: she's still so young. There's still so much I don't

652
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 3: even know where to begin. So look at her. She's

653
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 3: in the semifinals, she's the highest seat left in the

654
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 3: top half. She has a very good chance to get

655
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 3: into the final. And there are still so many things

656
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 3: that her coach wants to improve and is.

657
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 2: Excited about, and we're excited.

658
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 3: I just wanted to say one or a couple of

659
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 3: sentences about Anna Kalinskaya. She played all tournament long and

660
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 3: all Australian trip long, because she played in Adelaide. She

661
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,479
Speaker 3: played in Brisbane and won couple of matches.

662
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 2: Everywhere. She played much better than her ranking. She's ranked

663
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 2: seventy five.

664
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 3: Right now she will be ranked in the top fifty,

665
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 3: close to a seated position thirty eight, I think, and

666
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 3: I think that's much more her ranking. We saw it yesterday.

667
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 3: The first set and a half was.

668
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 2: Really really high quality good. She's so good.

669
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: The boss shiking the serve is good. I took to

670
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 1: Patricia Tarabini, her coach. You know, one thing they wanted

671
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: to work on the serve in particular was just I

672
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: was like, well, what are you working on this? So

673
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: she is taking her time, that's it nothing to technicol

674
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: just take her time. And she does tend to get

675
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 1: a little bit pissy pants, not pizsy pants, but when

676
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: things go wrong she starts rushing. So take the time

677
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 1: on the surf. If she's looking for the forehand, she said,

678
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: she's really confident, and she was. She was fantastic last night.

679
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: She just ran out of gas. I think in the

680
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: third and just Kinwin Chinwin started to get a little

681
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 1: bit more shape on the forehand, which pushes her opponents

682
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: back and then she can attack on both the four.

683
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we had we had a really interesting stet

684
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 3: in the throughout the tournament when has hit sixty four

685
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 3: percent of the rally shots with the forehand, and yesterday

686
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 3: in the first set she under she was forty six percent,

687
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 3: and which also speaks to the game plan of Anna

688
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 3: kalinz Kaya. She somehow managed to have Chin Wen just

689
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 3: hit backhands and her backhand is great, but you just

690
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 3: don't get that same angle, and especially her back end

691
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 3: is flat, and Ana kalin Kaya she likes that flat shot.

692
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,959
Speaker 3: And then in the second set she managed to go

693
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 3: around a bit more, take more forehands from the center

694
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 3: of the court, and it really turned the whole match around.

695
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 3: And especially what you just mentioned with the shape, that's

696
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 3: the ball that Anna Koonska doesn't like as much, and

697
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 3: she missed a.

698
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 2: Few more shots and all of a suddenly win the

699
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 2: third set.

700
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: It was the one thing that Mary Joe said as well,

701
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: she just got to start looking Mary Joe, who was

702
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: doing the match with a EA spencer, She's got to

703
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: start looking for the forehand.

704
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 2: I don't know why she's not, because also the shape of.

705
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: Her forehand is what gives so many women on the

706
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 1: WTA so many problems because there's only a few players

707
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: that play with that shape and that spin, and they

708
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: all love the flat ball, but the toppy ball is

709
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: a little bit more. It's a little bit more difficult

710
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: to control, especially when you get a bit nervous. So overall,

711
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: Chinwen now against Jastremska, I don't think this is any

712
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: given that Chinwen is going to win this match because

713
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 1: just Stremska had.

714
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 2: Her very best I agree with you.

715
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 1: Who was once twenty one in the world and just

716
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: a little thing on killin Skaya. She was also going

717
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: up in the rankings last year and then had that

718
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: awful period of time where she had an hamstring injury.

719
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 2: She missed I believe the French Open and Wimbledon.

720
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: So she's going to make up shitloads of points at

721
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: those tournaments.

722
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 2: So I suspect that she can be in the top

723
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 2: thirty on the end of you.

724
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: And I want to give a little shout out to

725
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: her coach, Patricia Tarabini, who's been with her for over

726
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: four years now. They have gone through the ups, the downs,

727
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 1: the can.

728
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 3: I do this?

729
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 2: Can I not?

730
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: And Patricia's just supported her. She's like her daughter to her.

731
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 1: They trained together in Miami. It's a great relationship coach

732
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: player relationship. Super happy for Patricia that she's put in

733
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: all this time and effort with Anna and they both

734
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: are now reaping some benefits of it. And Anna's a

735
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: really lovely girl.

736
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 3: You know.

737
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 1: It would have been interesting for her though, because her

738
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: you know, the flag has gone from her because she's

739
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: under the Russian flag, but her mom is Ukrainian. So

740
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 1: I bet you that's a very strange dynamic for her

741
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: to deal with at home and certainly on the tour

742
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: with the Ukrainian players. And I was almost like interested

743
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 1: to see her play against your stream's going to see

744
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: how she'd handled that anyway.

745
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 3: Wells just maybe one word on the Yes dram Skirchen

746
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 3: when I'm interested to see how Diana will react to

747
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 3: that loop beforehand of Chinwan. I almost think that it

748
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 3: will be okay for her because she's set up, yes,

749
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 3: and she has so much power and if she has

750
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:12,760
Speaker 3: the time to set up and.

751
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 2: Swing through it, that might be.

752
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 3: And then she has the flat ball into chin Wan's

753
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 3: forehand where she can be sometimes a little late.

754
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,720
Speaker 2: It's going to be a really interesting matchup.

755
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: It's one of them is going to be well, they're

756
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 1: both into their first semi final of a Grand slang,

757
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: which is already in and of itself. As you know,

758
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 1: Petko adaunting feeling when you walk on the court, as

759
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,399
Speaker 1: you did at the French Open, where you're like, oh

760
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: my god, I'm in a semi final.

761
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 2: Holy shit. So they're both going to feel a little weird.

762
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: But it's good that one is going through it, as

763
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: is the other, so it'll be interesting to see how

764
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 1: who handles that situation better. Of course, Coco and Sabolenka

765
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: are also today. I think that Sablenka wins this match comfortably,

766
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 1: comfortably if she plays like she's been playing this tournament

767
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: and Coco's been playing this tournament because Coco has not

768
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: been her best.

769
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 2: Will she bring her best today?

770
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: I'm sure she will, knowing that she has to and

771
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 1: she is not the favorite in this match, and it's

772
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 1: the first time she hasn't been the favorite playing a match,

773
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: and I think she's going to feel less stress Coco,

774
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 1: and I think Saberlenka is clearly going to feel some

775
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: pressure because she knows she is oh my god, this

776
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 1: draw is so open for someone like her, and she

777
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: tends to get a little bit crazy when that happens.

778
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: It happened at the US Open a couple of years ago,

779
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: it happened last year. Like she can get a little

780
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 1: bit nuts. So when she's like, oh my god, I'm

781
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: supposed to win this now, and if she doesn't and

782
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: comes out in place like she has this whole tournament,

783
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: I'm just going to tip my hat and go, girlfriend,

784
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 1: you know how to dominate matches.

785
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 2: And I really really think exactly.

786
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 3: I really think if she manages to defend this title

787
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 3: with the job being open, after everything that has happened

788
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 3: last year, where she was up a set and a

789
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 3: break in almost every single Grand Slam tournament, I think

790
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 3: she will unlock another level.

791
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 2: In her head.

792
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 3: And I think we can see somebody very very dominant. Yeah,

793
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 3: on all surfaces, in all Grand Slam tournaments, with Ega

794
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,400
Speaker 3: being her biggest rival, especially on the clay court and

795
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 3: Rebucca on the grass courts.

796
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 2: It's going to be great. We look forward to it.

797
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,719
Speaker 1: Of course, the two women's semifinals are tonight, so we'll

798
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: give you the wrap up I have tomorrow. She's also

799
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 1: late podcasts got to play another match today because her

800
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: match got suspended yesterday because the court was shit, it

801
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: was bubbles.

802
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 2: There was bubbles on the court.

803
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,319
Speaker 1: But anyway, all right, guys, we appreciate you hanging with us.

804
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: We appreciate you all around the world. I know there's

805
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: a lot of you everywhere, and we really appreciate you

806
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 1: taking the time to listen to us. All Right, kids,

807
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 1: we're going to say not again, good night. Of course

808
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: it's the Morgan.

809
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 3: We're going to say

810
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:41,760
Speaker 2: Babe,
