00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,399

20
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,600

21
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 3: I've been really excited watching you live. There was nothing

22
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 3: like it. The attitude, the personality, the amazing sportsmanship, like

23
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,680

Speaker 1: you had fun.

27
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 3: How does it feel when you're winning Grand Slam after

28
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 3: Grand Slam? This is the second time you've won the

29
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 3: US Open in a row. Does it feel different from

30
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: the first time? Does it feel the same? Like what

31
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 3: goes through your mind and heart?

32
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: Like every time you win the Grand Slam? Every time

33
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: is an incredible feeling, and every time it's just you

34
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: feel like the biggest thing that happened to you. And

35
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: I feel like it all depends on the situation in

36
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: life and stuff, because this isn't I struggle a lot,

37
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: So I feel like this time it feels like like

38
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: it happened for the first time. You know, it's like

39
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: my first Grand Slam, So it's it's a big moment.

40
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: And I felt like relief after after getting this this beauty.

41
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 3: Actually, thank you for bringing here. This is this is

42
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 3: the first trophy everyone on purpose, So this is a special.

43
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: The first one.

44
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 3: What were you what were you struggling with this year?

45
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 3: Like when you say like I was struggling this year,

46
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 3: That's why it feels like a relief. What were you

47
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 3: struggling with? Like, what were you going to?

48
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I played earlier in the season. I

49
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: played two Grand Slam finals in Australia and in Paris,

50
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: and I lost those two finals, and I like they

51
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: consider me favorite, so I kind of like, you know,

52
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: I thought that I felt like, Okay, it's coming my way.

53
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 1: I was so excited, but then I would lose in

54
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: the final and I was sort of like really sad

55
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: and like it was really tough to go through those

56
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: stuff lessons, stuff losses and and getting this this trophy

57
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: means a lot and means that I learned the lesson

58
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 1: and became a better player. I have better control over

59
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: my emotions, and I'm super happy that I was able

60
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: to win this trophy.

61
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 3: Obviously, you just won, and we'll talk about that. I

62
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 3: want to know what do you do when you lose?

63
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 3: Because losing is so much harder, It hurts so much

64
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 3: more painful, it hurts so deeply. What do you do

65
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 3: Do you analyze the game? Do you feel angry? Like

66
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 3: what are the emotions that you go through when you've

67
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 3: lost the game, lost the final.

68
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: The final? You know, I think it's all about like

69
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: losing in the final, it hurts more because you know

70
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: you're getting so close to your dream and then it's

71
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: like it feels like it's sort of like slips away,

72
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: if I can say like that. So you're really depressed,

73
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: and me personally, I want to leave the place as

74
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: soon as possible, just so I like forget it. But

75
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: then I need like some time to sit back, to analyze,

76
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: to like you know, to actually learn the lessons. So

77
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: it takes some time to possess the losses.

78
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 3: How long before you can watch the game back when

79
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: you've lost.

80
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: I have to be honest, I never want my like

81
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: finals that I lost. I let my team do that

82
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: and bring me on the plate. Okay, you like you

83
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: did this, this and this wrong. I know, like mentally

84
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: emotionally what I did wrong and where I made the

85
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 1: mistake in like the way I approached the final or

86
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: what was my mindset. I know this part, but like

87
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: the tennis part, I let my team figure. Then they

88
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: bring it, they tell me, I remember because I don't

89
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 1: want to watch it. I don't want to see myself.

90
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: They're losing, and of course, like the finals that I

91
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: lost earlier this season, I was like not behaving my

92
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: best and I had seen myself being not not the

93
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: kindest person, so I never watched my.

94
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's really interesting. I also imagine when you're watching

95
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 3: yourself back, it can kind of make you repeat that

96
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 3: behavior sometimes as well. Like it's like if you if

97
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 3: you watch something closely enough, you almost like you keep

98
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 3: pushing the wound. It's like you keep pressing all this. Yes,

99
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 3: so if that makes sense.

100
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: Exactly, you just want to learn it, you know, like

101
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 1: make sure that it's never going to happen again and

102
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: forget it like like a nightmare. Because yeah, I feel

103
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: like watching it back it just triggered that you know,

104
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: that that pain and something that you wanted to forget badly.

105
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: So I feel like, for me, for for my mental health,

106
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: is better not to watch it.

107
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, who's the first person after you win or lose

108
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 3: that you want to talk to, that you want to hug,

109
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 3: that you want to call? Like?

110
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: Whose is the I run to my team straight away.

111
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: I run to my team because I know the work

112
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: they put it in for this win. So I ran

113
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: there and I hug my boyfriend first of course, then

114
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: my team, and because I know how much of a

115
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: work they've done to to make sure that I'm able

116
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: to compete on such higher level. And then and then

117
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: I message my family.

118
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 3: Nice, yeah, let me talk to me about We would

119
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 3: just talking about this offline. You were just saying, you know,

120
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 3: this morning, you're on the Today Show. I'm sure you

121
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 3: have a million interviews to today. It's been forty eight

122
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 3: hours since you've won. But like people forget that these

123
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 3: tournaments are played in like these really tight time frames,

124
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 3: like this was two weeks right us open, Yeah, it's

125
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 3: really intense. You're playing all these games, multiple sets, really challenging,

126
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 3: Like the pressure is all compressed into this short timeline.

127
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 3: Like talk to us about the preparation as a team,

128
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 3: as an individual for the intensity of the two weeks

129
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 3: that the games are being played in.

130
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean we also have tournaments that leads

131
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: to the Grand Slam, and then you have like a

132
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: week before the Grand Slam where you come to the

133
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 1: place where you're going to compete and you practice training.

134
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: But also you have a lot of like brands, dinners,

135
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: like meetings, some interviews as well, So people doesn't know

136
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: that before the Grand Slam there is like a week,

137
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: really busy week full of meetings and this this kind

138
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 1: of stuff which is also not easy to handle, and

139
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: also your training during that period and then the tournament

140
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: starts and there is another pressure which you deal with.

141
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: But the preparation it's all about, you know. Of course,

142
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: physically there is like tennis, there's gem, there's fitness, all

143
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: of this stuff, but also mentally you're preparing yourself for

144
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: like really tough two weeks, two weeks of great tennis

145
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: hopefully because you never know, but also two weeks of fighting,

146
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: like fighting for your dream. And like mentally you have

147
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: this constant conversation in your head like you're gonna do that.

148
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: You're capable of it, You're strong enough, so you like, really,

149
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: I feel like if someone would hear like my conversation

150
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: in my head throughout like this three weeks period, they

151
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: would think that, Okay, this is something like something wrong

152
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: with this person because it's constant conversation.

153
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 3: Talk to us about that self talk, because I think

154
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: we forget Yeah, right now, we're all so obsessed with

155
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: the conversation online. Yeah, we're looking at what Twitter is saying,

156
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 3: excess saying, we're looking at what media social media, and

157
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: then you forget that the real conversation is happening inside

158
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 3: the champions head exactly. Yeah, walk us through what that

159
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 3: conversation looks like, Like what are the ups and downs,

160
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 3: what are the shifts in that in a dialogue?

161
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,559
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I think it's absolutely normal to feel

162
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: nervous before big tournaments. And I think that every athlete

163
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: feel nervous, every athlete adapting his I don't know ability

164
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 1: will he be able to do that again, or like

165
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: how it's going to go, because you never know, like

166
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: support is such a beautiful thing that you go out

167
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: there and you don't know how it's gonna feel, will

168
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: the will the game works, like will will you feel

169
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 1: great or beat? Or what you'll have to deal with

170
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: because you know, people look from the outside and that

171
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't know. For example, I don't feel myself like

172
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: I don't like I feel uncomfortable doing something on court,

173
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: and I have to deal with that. So before the tournament,

174
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: I prepare myself that I am ready to handle anything.

175
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: Like I'm just talking that it's normal. I'm just trying

176
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: to kind of like settle those those like thoughts in

177
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: my head, not by trying to like make them go away,

178
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: because I feel like the moment when you try to

179
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: make things go away. They actually like growing more and

180
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: it's it's like more and it's not easy to handle.

181
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: So I'm just trying to tell myself it's okay to

182
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 1: feel that, it's okay to think that it's absolutely okay.

183
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,079
Speaker 1: Everyone thinks that it's all about you going out there

184
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: and fighting no matter what, and like constantly having this

185
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: conversation in your head throughout two weeks. It's tough. Yeah,

186
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: it's tough, but I kind of like love it.

187
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you've learned to enjoy it.

188
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,839
Speaker 1: No, I'm just so grateful to have opportunity to experience that.

189
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: Of all of that, not everyone have this opportunity in life,

190
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: So I'm just so grateful. And I big opportunities is

191
00:09:55,960 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: also like big responsibility, big pressure, but not everyone have

192
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: that opportunity, so you've got to be grateful for that.

193
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's beautiful. You reminded me of that famous quote

194
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,319
Speaker 3: that says what you resist persists, the idea that if

195
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 3: you're trying to get rid of a thought or trying

196
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 3: to get rid of a feeling, it just expands and

197
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 3: it takes up more space and as soon as you

198
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 3: accept it, yeah, you're fine. When you reject it, it just

199
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 3: gets bigger, it gets hard about the rejection.

200
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: That's not the cue.

201
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,839
Speaker 3: Absolutely when you accept that. Of course, of course it's

202
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 3: natural to feel nervous. Of course everyone's feeling uncomfortable, everyone's

203
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 3: feeling stressed out. All of a sudden, it kind of

204
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 3: calms you. Whereas when you think that, oh, I'm the

205
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 3: only one. Yeah, everyone else looks so calm and confident,

206
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 3: but I'm stressed out. That's why we all get.

207
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: I think that was my my main mistake. When I

208
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: was just like starting playing tennis, I said that I'm

209
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: the only one who feel that, and I would focus

210
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: too much on that, so I would forget about like

211
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: my opponent and I would struggle a lot at the

212
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: beginning of my career. But then the moment when I realized,

213
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: like and I that everyone experienced that, and I started

214
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: seeing that in my opponent, and I was like, Okay,

215
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 1: then it's normal. Then we're both in the same situation.

216
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: We're both dealing with the same things, and it's all

217
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 1: about who's going to do that better. So it's actually

218
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: like a trick. I feel like, like my trick, like

219
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: just accept it.

220
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, what what's the what's the hardest thing about being

221
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 3: a champion, about being number one for you.

222
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know it's hard. I mean

223
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: I think there is nothing like when you call someone

224
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: like champion, when you hear the champions, like, how can

225
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: I actually complain about it? And you think like if

226
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: you're like if you want like a trophy, like there

227
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: is nothing to complain about.

228
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. I loved when you came out after you've

229
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 3: won and you had the champagne bottle you had that.

230
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 3: I was like, I was like that sponsor must be

231
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 3: really happier in it. Like I was like, that was

232
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 3: like the best reaction ever. I shouldn't care with with

233
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 3: the tequila sponsor.

234
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: Champagne. But you know, you got to celebrate it. You

235
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: got to enjoy it because you know, the hard work

236
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: is done. Now it's time to you know, celebrate it.

237
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

238
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was thinking. I was thinking about the moment.

239
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 3: I don't know if you remember that tournament where Ronaldo

240
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 3: hit the Coca cola and he put the water up.

241
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 3: Did you ever see that interview? So this is a

242
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 3: press conference a few years ago and it was Christiano

243
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 3: Ronaldo football, OK, and they'd put Coca Cola in front

244
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 3: of him and he put it away and he said,

245
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 3: drink water, don't drink Coca cola, and Coca Cola stock

246
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 3: price went down that day, Like it was crazy. Sounds

247
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 3: like you just took my way. Champagne's like stock price

248
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 3: must have like gone up.

249
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 1: And probably need to check it out.

250
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, the ski goggles too.

251
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: I was like, it was so funny. I didn't know

252
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: that I'm gonna look that funny.

253
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 3: Look great.

254
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: It came straight from the locker room where they spread

255
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: like I don't know how much a bottle of champagne

256
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: on me it was. It was. It was a fun moment.

257
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 3: I think, celebrate, you know what. I was so happy

258
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 3: to hear you say I want to celebrate on a

259
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 3: fun because I think we forget and sometimes you need

260
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 3: to see the number one person in the world say

261
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 3: I need to celebrate, because I think this applies to

262
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 3: everyone wherever you are at your stage in life. We

263
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 3: don't celebrate any milestones, yes, and then when you don't

264
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 3: see the people at the top celebrate, you kind of think, oh, well,

265
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 3: what what permission do I have to celebrate? So I

266
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 3: feel like you gave everyone permission to say, you know what,

267
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 3: it's Okay, well you have to exactly.

268
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 1: You have to celebrate absolutely, especially when you in my case,

269
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: like losing the finals, losing some tough matches, dealing with

270
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: some struggles. You know, when you finally able to win

271
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: something big for you, I think it's important to celebrate

272
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: that moment because you never know when this moment gonna

273
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: gonna happen again, So you have to celebrate. It doesn't

274
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: matter in which industry in life you are, whatever achievement

275
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: you achieve, like you have to go and just have

276
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 1: a little moment for yourself.

277
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you do? You take a moment yourself as

278
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 3: well to celebrate on your own, Like what does that

279
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 3: look like? What does that personal celebration look like?

280
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: I usually celebrate with my team, with the people around me,

281
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: because you know, it's not like it was done only

282
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: by me. You know, I've done it with the help

283
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: of people. So I feel like it's it's not only

284
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: mine trophy, it's our trophy. But my celebration is like

285
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: one again in my head, I just tell myself, Okay,

286
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: I'm proud to be able to handle have this trophy.

287
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's important to have that inner celebration

288
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 3: as well. Yeah, because I love that you just said that,

289
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 3: I sit down and I'm proud to have this trophy.

290
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 3: Like I feel like we're constantly looking for validation outside

291
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 3: and when you win something like this, of course, the

292
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 3: whole world that loves tennis and loves you is validating you,

293
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 3: which is a beautiful feeling, of course. But I love

294
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 3: that you said that, you actually sit there and say

295
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 3: I'm proud of this trophy for myself because I feel

296
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 3: like that inner validation is something no one can take

297
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 3: away from you and something that stays with you long after.

298
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, because like only I know, like what I had

299
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: to go through, how tough it was, and how it

300
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: all started, and you know, like this is important to

301
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: you know, appreciate it.

302
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's beautiful. I want to go back, are in

303
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 3: it because I feel like I was watching a lot

304
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 3: of your interviews when I was preparing for this, and

305
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 3: I know we've been messaging for a while on Instagram too.

306
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 3: I was thinking about it. I was like, I actually

307
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 3: don't think a lot of people know your journey and

308
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 3: know your story that deeply. I think people know a

309
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 3: little bit here and there, but on on purpose, that's

310
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 3: what we like to do. We love to know how

311
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 3: people found their purpose became yeah, became who they were.

312
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 3: And so I wanted to ask you, like, what is

313
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 3: a childhood memory that you have or a memory that

314
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 3: you can recall that you feel defines who you are today,

315
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 3: that has impacted the person that you are today.

316
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: You know, I have so many great memories, but I

317
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: remember watching my dad being really like funny guy, the

318
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: guy who would just you know, make everyone feel happy

319
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: and smile and would I remember I would just look

320
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: at him and think, oh my god, I want to

321
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: become this kind of person, being like just like a

322
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: positive person, like the person who brings like positive pipes

323
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: everywhere she goes. So I think that's why I'm like,

324
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: quite I have this quite funny personality.

325
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 3: Is that where that playfulness comes from?

326
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: Uh?

327
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, watching your dad?

328
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah? And another story. But this story it's not

329
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: like I remember that, but I think it's perfectly shows

330
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: my personality. When I was a kid and someone came

331
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: to me because I was grunting while hitting the ball,

332
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: and someone came to me calling me Sharapova, and I

333
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: looked at the person saying like, no, I'm future sabal Anka.

334
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: I was a kid, I was like what nine or

335
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: ten and saying that I was just like when my

336
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: mom told me the story, I kind of like was

337
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: proud of myself.

338
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 3: I love it. And to me, it's all your even

339
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 3: when I was watching on Saturday. To me, it's all

340
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 3: your micro expressions, Like you just have this face that

341
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 3: can just like make so many different angles and faces

342
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 3: and I'm like just watching you. Just I was telling

343
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 3: you about a moment earlier. Ananda played an amazing shot

344
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 3: the other day and you just like turned around, You're

345
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 3: like clapping it on the side, and I was like,

346
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 3: it was a great shot, it was a great show,

347
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 3: It was amazing. Just it's all these micro things. But

348
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 3: you're saying your dad inspired all of this, Like.

349
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: That my personality, I think hundred percent comes from my dad.

350
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 3: And he was also the one who introduced you to tennis.

351
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 3: Is yeah, yeah, yeah, walk me through that. How did

352
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 3: he discover tennis? How did he introduce it to you?

353
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,719
Speaker 1: It's actually by not like accident, but he was just

354
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: like trying to find some activity for me because I

355
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: was very active kid, and he wanted me to be

356
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: busy and to do stuff, and he was trying to

357
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: find a sport for me, and he was just like

358
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: passing by the tennis court. He was like, well, why

359
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,479
Speaker 1: not just try it? So I tried it and I

360
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: loved it, and that's how it started.

361
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 3: That's crazy. Was he good at tennis? No?

362
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: No, No, he used to play ice hockey, but then

363
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,160
Speaker 1: he had bi crash so he was afraid to come

364
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: back in sport.

365
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 3: Oh wow. So yeah, it was quite a bad injury there.

366
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: It was a very bad injury. He barely survived when

367
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: he was eighteen or nineteen, so and since then he

368
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: didn't want to come back to sport because he was

369
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: afraid that it will affect his health.

370
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 3: Did he do anything to help you feel confident about

371
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 3: tennis or what was that relationship like? Because I heard

372
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 3: in another interview you said you said it was quite

373
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 3: funny that you didn't actually think you got good at

374
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 3: tennis until you were like sixteen seventeen years old, And

375
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 3: so that's a long time. If you started playing tennis

376
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 3: quite early and you only felt really good at sixteen seventeen,

377
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 3: what was happening between that age when you started playing and.

378
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: No, but I was I was pretty good. I was

379
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: been in these local tournaments all the time. I was

380
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 1: pretty good. And my dad would always just say, just

381
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: as long as you just go out there and you

382
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 1: fight and you give your your best, you're good. He

383
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: didn't care like if I win a loose, so he

384
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: was like a really great supporter. But I realized at

385
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: sixteen seventeen that it can be maybe good, like internationally,

386
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 1: you know, like going for those Back then, I was

387
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: like ten thousand event like a woman's sport, you know,

388
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: like w T. It started like actually, I think it

389
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 1: was like ITF or something like, because I started from

390
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: like ten thousan twenty five fifty one hundreds, so like

391
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: slowly made my way to WT eight tennis. So yeah,

392
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: back then, I thought like maybe maybe I can be

393
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: good when you compare yourself to like other ATHLETs. So

394
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: that's why I probably are.

395
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 3: Who did you grow up watching? Who are the people

396
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 3: that you admired? Because you already said you're like, no,

397
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 3: I'm going to be future Sevlenka. You know.

398
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 1: It's so funny because I think back then it wasn't

399
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: that much of a social media, so I didn't have

400
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: like like an iPhone, you know, to go to Instagram

401
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 1: and watch other ATHLETs, and I was just like I

402
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: was training. The whole I was going to school, I

403
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: was training, and then I was just like having fun

404
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: with my friends outside. So I was never like watching

405
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 1: TV or any internet much. So I didn't really look

406
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: up to someone, you know, like of course I've seen

407
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: like Serena the Mina eating like there and there, so

408
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: when I was like thinking, like I wish I could

409
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: become like her one day, you know, so, but no,

410
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: I wasn't like really looking up to someone. And like

411
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: this question question makes me feel really terrible as a person,

412
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: Like I feel like everyone have their like idle someone

413
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,959
Speaker 1: they look up to, and I never have someone. But

414
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: I think the answer is just like because we didn't

415
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,679
Speaker 1: have that social media, we didn't have like something that

416
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 1: you just grew up and you look and okay and

417
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: you see this this life.

418
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 3: No, I mean I didn't. I didn't want to make

419
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 3: you feel bad by asking you I was.

420
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: You didn't make me bad.

421
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 3: I don't know. And I almost think there's something beautiful

422
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 3: about it, because I think sometimes sometimes watching people can

423
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 3: inspire us, but sometimes not having that can actually help

424
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 3: you find yourself, like not having acts even I mean

425
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:50,959
Speaker 3: when I was growing up, I'm ten years older than

426
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 3: you but when I was growing up, I was reading

427
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 3: books about people because I couldn't follow them on social

428
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 3: media either. So I read David Beckham's autoiography when I

429
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 3: was like sixteen seventeen years old, and then I read

430
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 3: Steve Jobs's biography much later, and so I was reading

431
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 3: about people that I was fascinated by at a young age,

432
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 3: but I didn't get to watch clips of them or

433
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 3: whatever else it may be. And I think there's something

434
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 3: beautiful about that, because then you get to define who

435
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 3: you are, and sometimes you can get caught comparing yourself

436
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 3: to people. I think social media has made it so

437
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 3: hard for young athletes or young anyone. Yeah, you're looking

438
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 3: at everyone again. I wish I was more like that.

439
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 3: I wish I looked like that. I wish I had

440
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 3: that game, you know, And so it's kind of nice

441
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 3: to not have that. Actually, sometimes because you're free.

442
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,199
Speaker 1: It's a good and a bad thing at the same time, right, Like,

443
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: you see more stuff, you learn more, but at the

444
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: same time, you can compare yourself to people and then

445
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,239
Speaker 1: feel better about yourself for some reason. So it's like

446
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 1: it can bring like really strong consecureence in you. So

447
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, I think it's important to find something

448
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: that you'll laugh, you truly laugh, not like because you

449
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: see like a social media posts and you think, oh,

450
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: I want to live that life, But do you really?

451
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: You know, you have to find something that you'll love.

452
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: And I think if you do what you love and

453
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: your passion, and you dedicate your life to that and

454
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: you do everything you can to become successful in any area,

455
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: I think that's that's the way to go, you know.

456
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 3: Boll said, Yeah, absolutely. I feel like it's so because

457
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 3: winning the trophy is one percent of your life. The

458
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 3: other ninety nine percent is what we don't see. We're

459
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 3: just seeing the two weeks at the tournaments or whatever

460
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 3: it may be.

461
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: It's the whole life.

462
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 3: It's the waking up, it's the walk me through your

463
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 3: morning routine, Like, what does your routine look like? How

464
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 3: do you set yourself.

465
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: Up during the tournament?

466
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 3: Do me a game day and a non game day?

467
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 1: Well, the game day depends on the match once again,

468
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: but I like to sleep in. I need to have

469
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: a good recovery. But then I take it easy. If

470
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: it's like an evening match, I take it easy. I

471
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: do like some my ability in the gym, like to

472
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: wake me up. I mean, of course, breakfast before lunch.

473
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: Then I go on side, I do my warm up again,

474
00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: I do tennis hit, and then there's a much game.

475
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 1: And when it's not much day, then it's like even

476
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: a longer sleep. Later, wake up and easy start a

477
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: little bit of aheat and then it's a treatment recovery process,

478
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: and then it's a dinner. I love to go out

479
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 1: for dinners.

480
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 3: Nice. Did I read somewhere that you meditate as well

481
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 3: or I've tried before. Do you practice any sort of

482
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 3: meditation or work with the sports psychologist as well.

483
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: I worked with the sports psychologist for four or five years.

484
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 1: We did some sort of meditation. We did. Yeah, we

485
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: did a lot of things at the beginning of my career.

486
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: But then, you know what, I found that I was

487
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 1: relying on her so much. She was a woman. I

488
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: was relying on her so much, so I was expect

489
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: expecting her to fix my problems, like my emotions so

490
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: and I was like repeating the same mistake over and

491
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 1: over again, and I was like getting upset about that.

492
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: So at some point I decided, Okay, I have to

493
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: take responsibility over my actions, and I stopped working with psychologists.

494
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 1: And that was the moment when I start like learning

495
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: about myself, when I actually understood myself better and I

496
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: start to control my emotions much better, and I felt

497
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 1: like more balanced when I like took that responsibility. So

498
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,199
Speaker 1: it was I think for me personally it was it

499
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: was a great move. But you never know, like maybe

500
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: one day I'm going to come back to get back

501
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: to psychology, meditation on all of that stuff.

502
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 3: I think that's the right process. Though, with anything, I

503
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 3: feel like it's learned, learn, and then you have to

504
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 3: go lead yourself and it's learned and then lead yourself.

505
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 3: And I think the challenges if you constantly remain a student,

506
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 3: then you always dependent, and I think anything we become

507
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 3: dependent on controls us and then we're subject to how

508
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 3: good we feel that day. But when you learn something

509
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 3: and then you go and try it and you practice

510
00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 3: it and you apply it, then you get to see

511
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 3: whether you act actually internalized there. And so I think

512
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 3: that is a good process. I feel like for anyone

513
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 3: who's practicing any sort of coaching, therapy, psychology, it's great

514
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 3: to be able to learn and then go test all

515
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 3: the stuff in the real world and and then see

516
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 3: where it goes back rather than keep it there forever,

517
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 3: because then you're almost someone's holding your hand the whole time,

518
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 3: and then you keep holding tire and tire entire.

519
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good to like, you know, go back and forth,

520
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: like work with psychologists, but then go out there and

521
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: and try to figure it by your by yourself, and

522
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: then the moment you feel like you need to talk

523
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: to someone and you need to find some yeah, some

524
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 1: some answers. So yeah, it's it's a it's always a

525
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: learning process, right, Like, as long as it's good for you,

526
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:44,880
Speaker 1: it's great.

527
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 3: How would the people that know you beyond tennis personally,

528
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 3: deeply intimately, how would they describe you? What would they

529
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 3: say about you?

530
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't like to talk about myself, but I

531
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: feel like they would. They would say that I'm very kind,

532
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: funny of course, and very generous, and I think, I mean, yeah,

533
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: I think that's that's how they would describe me. I mean,

534
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:23,920
Speaker 1: that's what I.

535
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 3: Hope they're gonna.

536
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 1: Maybe they're gonna just say, okay, you know what, just

537
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: just crazy, that'll just stay away. Who knows, but that's

538
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 1: that's my hopes.

539
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 3: Funny kind of generous is a good is a good

540
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 3: good three. I like this.

541
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 1: I see myself, but reaps it's just different.

542
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 3: We'll check after it. As to ask a few people,

543
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 3: how much does your life off the court, in your

544
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 3: personal life impact your life on the court.

545
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: Well, I think anyway, everything it's you know, kind of

546
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: like works together. So but I think it's all about

547
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: like balancing you're of the court and on the court

548
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 1: live because I feel like on the court, I'm like

549
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: really aggressive, I'm so focused. I'm like I'm just chasing

550
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: my dreams. So I feel like people who doesn't know me,

551
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: they can they can say that I'm super crazy person

552
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 1: and super aggressive on another court, but it's not who

553
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: I am. I feel like off the court, I'm more

554
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: fun and I love to have fun. And you know,

555
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: you have to balance, you have to like put the

556
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: hard work in, but also you have to go and

557
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: and and enjoy and do things that brings you brings

558
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 1: you joy. Because then when you feel feel balanced and

559
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 1: feel like you're enjoying your life, then you you're you're

560
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: able to go there and to you know, bring everything

561
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: you have and to fight and to to be focused.

562
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel I feel Tennis has done so much.

563
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 3: Hopefully to start leveling the playing field with men and women.

564
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,439
Speaker 3: Have you ever felt that divide personally while playing? Like

565
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 3: do you feel the pressure that everyone in the media

566
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 3: puts on the spots, like you know, men and women

567
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,719
Speaker 3: are not equal, there's this challenge like have you felt

568
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 3: that or do you feel that? Doesn't really cross your mind?

569
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 3: How do you process that.

570
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 1: I'm trying not to focus on that because I just

571
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 1: try to represent women's for the best way possible. And

572
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: of course we're all fighting for equal price, money and everything.

573
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,159
Speaker 1: But also at the end of the day, it's all

574
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: about who brings them, who brings the show, who brings

575
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: people into the sport. But I think like now the

576
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 1: price money is equal, everything is getting closer and closer

577
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: between man and women. So I of course I love it,

578
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: and that's what women athletes are fighting for. Thank you

579
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: billaging King for you know, fighting for us. I agree

580
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: that we deserve to be paid the same. Of course,

581
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: like the level is different just because of the physical abilities,

582
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 1: but the work that we're putting is it's equal to

583
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: the work that they putting. Of course the level can

584
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: be different, but it just it's live. That's that's men

585
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: meant to be stronger than women.

586
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 3: So yeah, but it's interesting to hear that you don't

587
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 3: think about it, because I think that's because I guess

588
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 3: you've just got to focus on playing the game.

589
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you cannot, you know, focus on many things. You

590
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: just got to focus on yourself and bring the best

591
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: best of you and uh, and of course try to

592
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: fight for having like equal price money to be like

593
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: closer to what man's are earning and and and that stuff.

594
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: And I think like actually lately like women's tennis, especially

595
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 1: tennis women tennis, it's more fun to watch like more

596
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: people coming, like attending, people speak more about that. Maybe

597
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: it's like fashion related because it's such a fashionable sport

598
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: right now, but I feel like we are getting really

599
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: close to men.

600
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I think it's been brilliant. I think the

601
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 3: sport's done a great job at trying to make Billy

602
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 3: jin king as you said, Yeah, such a reason for that.

603
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 3: It's been amazing. So it's incredible talk to us about

604
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 3: the fashion because you're as soon as you put your

605
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 3: like outfit on that then you put the silver jacket

606
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 3: on and like I was like, is like going for it?

607
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 3: Like how much how much fun do you get? To

608
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 3: have with all of that.

609
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: I love it, you know, I love fashion. I love

610
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: you know, I love experimenting with the with the with

611
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 1: my looks and stuff. And for me, it's important, you know,

612
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: to look good on court to feel good about myself.

613
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: So I love that. I think it's all about, you know,

614
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: having fun with it and bringing fashion into tennis. I

615
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: think it's also going to help to explore our sport more.

616
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: So I'm enjoying this.

617
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you see it in sports like I feel

618
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 3: like basketball, especially in America, like all the basketball players

619
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 3: very fashionable. Like it kind of creates it brings sports

620
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 3: and culture together quite a lot. How do you find

Speaker 3: of go about picking colors, silhouettes everything else.

624
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: Well, I started to work with the Carla Welch, the stylist.

625
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: She's the best, and she teached me a lot about

626
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: you know, how to mix stuff together, which colors works

627
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: better for me. So she teached me a lot. And

628
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 1: I follow a lot of like queshion influencers just to

629
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: like see how they dressed up. And sometimes I find

630
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: the inspiration. I ordered a lot of stuff, and you know,

631
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, I cannot stop shopping. That's my that's my weakness.

632
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, there was a click that I saw where

633
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 3: it's like as soon as after the game, the first

634
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 3: thing that went on was the ap. It went on

635
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 3: straight after the game.

636
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 1: You know, you gotta take care of the fashion stuff

637
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: of the game.

638
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 3: Quess on part of the game. I love it, will

Speaker 3: you will you crush A crush when I think. One

640
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 3: of the things that I love talking to about with

641
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 3: successful people, champions who've been through it is like defining

642
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 3: moments in their life. You know, I feel like defining

643
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 3: moments in every human's life are just it either propels

644
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 3: you forward or it can, you know, slow you down

645
00:31:58,320 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 3: or break it down. And for you, I feel like

646
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 3: one of the one. Just losing your father like that

647
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 3: is for anyone, losing a parent is such a huge

648
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 3: part of the journey. For you, it's critical to your

649
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 3: journey because it's the person who gave you what in

650
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 3: love walk us through that moment in time.

651
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: Well, I hope I'm not gonna start crying right now,

652
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: but it was it was unexpectable. It just happened like this,

653
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: and uh, it was It was a tough moment because

654
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: I was so close to him. The reason is because

655
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: we have similar personalities and we understood each other much better.

656
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 1: He knew what to tell me when I was like

657
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 1: struggling on court. You know, I would just call him

658
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: and he would just say a couple of things and

659
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: I would be like, oh, that makes sense. So losing

660
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: him was it was a tough moment. But you know,

661
00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:00,959
Speaker 1: instead of like really going depressed, I just decided to

662
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: take it as you know, like he's like here with me,

663

00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: name in the history and thanks to him.

672
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, how did you a grieve at the time, Like,

673
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 3: what was useful to you? Because I feel losing someone's

674
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 3: always hard and there's no perfect way to grieve. But

675
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 3: what worked for you? What did you have to do

676
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 3: in order to process that?

677
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: Well, I had to stay really strong because yeah, my

678
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 1: mom was she it was tough for her to handle.

679
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: So the young woman to lose her husband that she loved,

680
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: it was tough. So how to stay really strong and

681
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 1: not really strong my emotions. But I was crying a

682
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 1: lot back then when no one's saw me. But the

683
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,239
Speaker 1: best way for me was to go on court and

684
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: practice and train. It was the only time when I

685
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,359
Speaker 1: wouldn't think, you know, like the beginning of the practice

686
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: till the end, I was just focusing on like tennis,

687
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: like hitting does like balls, repetition after repetition, and then

688
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 1: the moment the practice was top, I would like constantly thinking,

689
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: like remembering like something from the past, start crying harder.

690
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: That was the best way for me to go through

691
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 1: it is like go out and practice and practice and practice.

692
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 3: Yeah I feel like, yeah, I feel like you just

693
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,759
Speaker 3: break down straight after, because I mean, I'm surprised you

694
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 3: could even focus during the practice. That's impressive because.

695
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: There was Yeah, I don't know how. Actually I just

696
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: figured that I went on court, start practicing. I realized that, Okay,

697
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: this is the moment when I'm not thinking about that,

698
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: and I was training.

699
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 3: A lot you're trying to like channel it all into.

700
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, like just let it, like go, let it go,

701
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: because it's nothing you can do about you know. I

702
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: feel like in life there is like birth love, and

703
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: that's something that you have zero control on. So I

704
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: was like, it was his journey. I was grateful that

705
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,720
Speaker 1: I was able to spend twenty one years with him,

706
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 1: and yeah, I know that he's protecting me.

707
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 3: That's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing that. That's so

708
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 3: beautiful to hear about. My wife recently lost her grandmother

709
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 3: and I always say to people that my like my

710
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 3: wife's I don't even come close. My wife's favorite person

711
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 3: in the world is her grandmother, and her grandma's ninety one.

712
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 3: She lived an amazing life. But losing someone that close

713
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 3: to you that's raised you that you have all these

714
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 3: memories with, it's never easy. And you know, my wife

715
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 3: was by her bedside for four months every day before

716
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 3: she passed away, like sleeping in hospital and together with

717
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 3: her and just you know, it was beautiful for me

718
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 3: to watch just that love, that connection. Yeah, that connection

719
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 3: and that level of love and that level of and

720
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 3: I love what you said now about how birth, love

721
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 3: and death are the only things that are guaranteed, And

722
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 3: it's how do you how do you think about love?

723
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 3: Like what your views on love? I'm intrigued as seeing

724
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 3: as you brought those three important things.

725
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: I think love is something that you cannot really explain, right.

726
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: You just you just feel complete with the person, right,

727
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:27,879
Speaker 1: You just feel comfortable. You you're not adopting anything, You're

728
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: having fun. You love everything about the person good and

729
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: because everyone have good and bad parts, right, So you

730
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: love everything And I think that's something that gives you

731
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: that feeling that I don't know that like that warm

732
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 1: in your heart?

733
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, feel would you.

734
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: Describe you know? All right? How co can? Yeah?

735
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 3: Love to me is when someone accepts you for who

736
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 3: you are, and you accept them for who they are

737
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,800
Speaker 3: and not changing your right trying to change them exactly.

738
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 3: Like the biggest mistake is when you either want someone

739
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 3: to never change or you want someone to change today,

740
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 3: because chances are if you spend long enough with someone,

741
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,920
Speaker 3: they will change and you will change. And if I

742
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,919
Speaker 3: want to change you, that means I'd never really loved

743
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 3: you in the first place. And so very when I'm

744
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 3: willing to accept, Yeah, when I'm willing to accept and

745
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 3: be with you and sit with you and understand you.

746
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 3: I'm trying to be more curious than I am judgmental

747
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 3: exactly because I'm trying to understand why you are the

748
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 3: way you are and I love that what made you

749
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 3: this way?

750
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: And I totally agree, Yeah.

751
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 3: Because it's because I feel like it's it's so easy

752
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 3: in any relationship. This isn't just romantic. I think applies

753
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 3: to parents, family, sisters, siblings, brothers, everyone. It's like you

754
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 3: don't know why someone is the way they are.

755
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,359
Speaker 1: You don't know what they've been through, right, what made

756
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 1: them the way they are? And when you understand understand

757
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 1: that about like you said, family, friends, just people right, yeah,

758
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: makes you yeah, just feel the person.

759
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 3: Yeah? When did you start to feel successful and feel

760
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 3: like you were a champion? Did you ever? Do you

761
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 3: feel that way? Or is there?

762
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, I never think about that. I think

763
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: for me, success is the discipline that you put in.

764
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 1: I think this is success, like being able to be

765
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,320
Speaker 1: there every morning, every practice, doesn't matter, how you feel,

766
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you want it or you don't want

767
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 1: to be there, you know, because there is days when

768
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,360
Speaker 1: you just don't want to go and work or practice

769
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,760
Speaker 1: and do your job right and if you're still there,

770
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: this is success. This is meant that you love what

771
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 1: you do and you want to be successful.

772
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 3: That's a great definition of success. I love that. That's

773
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 3: such a great answer. Success is actually showing up when

774
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 3: you don't want to, when you don't feel like it.

775
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 3: That's really what it is.

776
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,479
Speaker 1: I think that's why I'm able to, you know, hold

777
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: this troph is because I was there like no matter what,

778
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 1: since like a very young age. You know, remember going

779
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 1: to practice not feeling well, but I don't know someone

780
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: was just something was just driving me like I was

781
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 1: just going there. I loved it. And that's why I

782
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 1: say that people have to find something they love, because

783
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,879
Speaker 1: when you love something, what's like what you do, that's

784
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 1: what pushes you, like to go to to do better

785
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,320
Speaker 1: every day, like and to improve too. That's important.

786
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 3: I love what you're saying, and I'm thinking about some

787
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,720
Speaker 3: of the things I think my audience struggles with sometimes.

788
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 3: Let's say you find some people struggle to find something

789
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 3: they love. Do you think that's because we have the

790
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 3: wrong view of it? Like I think some people think

791
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 3: if you love something, you always like it. But what

792
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,439
Speaker 3: you're saying is you could love something and there'll still

793
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 3: be days where you don't like it, which I think

794
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,919
Speaker 3: is a really important point. Yeah, that makes sense.

795
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 1: Like I feel like so many people give up on

796
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: things because they feel like, Okay, I don't want to

797
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,880
Speaker 1: go there that okay, I'm done, And I think this

798
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 1: is actually the moment where you can make the like breakthrough,

799
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: you know, because you yeah, like you said, you're absolutely right.

800
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 1: You can love something, but at the same time, you

801
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,840
Speaker 1: can experience those days when you just don't want to

802
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: do that and it's normal. It's normal. It's just it's

803
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: it's a routine. So it's important to if you love

804
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 1: something at first and you you felt happy, and like

805
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,839
Speaker 1: all of the sudden you're like, Okay, I don't want

806
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: to go there. It's it's doesn't mean that you have

807
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: to change something. You know, you have to change your job.

808
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: You just have to go through this period. It's it's

809
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 1: like in every relationship, it's not perfect all the time.

810
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: You have to, you know, go through something.

811
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 3: Did you ever think about giving up like it? Was

812
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 3: there ever a time in your life where you like,

813
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 3: I think this is it.

814
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a moment in my career when was

815
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 1: that three years ago when I was double faulting, I

816
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 1: couldn't like serve. I don't know what happened with me

817
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 1: and Surf, just something happened and it wouldn't work, and

818
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 1: I was I was still playing. I was. I actually

819
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:11,320
Speaker 1: ended up year in top ten somehow without the SERF.

820
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 1: But it was like, really I was pretty close to

821
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: just quit because I was like, I don't know how

822
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: to fix it. Like we tried everything, like psychology, we

823
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: read everything, like like like going like through repetitions, like

824
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 1: practicing like different like everything. We tried everything and we

825
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: couldn't fix it. And I was like, Okay, I'm about

826
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 1: to quit. But then we we hired it by Behney

827
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: guy and he helped to understand some details and and

828
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: you know, like so that's what I'm saying, Like it

829
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 1: was the moment for me to like, you know, to

830
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 1: stay strong, to go through it, to like never give up,

831
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 1: you know like how we say. And I didn't quit,

832
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 1: and after that I was able to win my first

833
00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 1: Grand Slam, And that moment was crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy emotional.

834
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 3: I feel like that's always the case where it's like

835
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 3: you love something something about it's not working. You're struggling,

836
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 3: you're not getting it right, and that's the point where

837
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 3: you're required to be a bit more dedicated. Like it's

838
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:15,919
Speaker 3: like that's where the unlock is.

839
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 1: Yes, I feel like Universe got you call however you

840
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: want it, send those challenges because you can handle it

841
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 1: and for a reason, you know, like everything happens for

842
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 1: a reason, And that would actually kept me in sport

843
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 1: because I was like, Okay, this has happened, happening for

844
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 1: a reason, I need to change something, you know. And

845
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: I think you have to go through this stuff challenges

846
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: to see why it happened to you. It's not only

847
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 1: about sport, in everything in life, you know.

848
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I feel like those are the moments that

849
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 3: give you confidence and courage that when you overcome something whichever.

850
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 3: And I think people forget how much they've overcome, Like

851
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,280
Speaker 3: I love that you just said, like I've been just

852
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 3: showing up since I was a little kid, Like you know,

853
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 3: you've been showing up for so many years. And I

854
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 3: think people think confidence is how you show up today

855
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,839
Speaker 3: or winning a trophy or it's like no, no, no,

856
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 3: Like think about it, and everyone has showed up in

857
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 3: their life, Like the people that are going to work,

858
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 3: for their kids, for their partner. Like people have been

859
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 3: showing up. And if everyone could think of all the

860
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 3: times in their life where they had the courage, had

861
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 3: the confidence to show up even when they didn't want to.

862
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 3: You're going to feel a lot more of that today

863
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 3: rather than waiting to win to feel confident.

864
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 1: I think confidence it's a process. You know, you're building

865
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 1: this confidence like step by step, like by waking up

866
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: the like the early morning, by showing up somewhere you

867
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,720
Speaker 1: didn't want to, you know, like and like slowly building

868
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: your confidence. It's all about like this little little steps.

869
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 3: Do you have any unusual rituals or any like things

870
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,759
Speaker 3: that you do before you got on court or on

871
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 3: a day like you do you bound the ball a

872
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 3: number of times? Do you throw it a certain way?

873
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 3: Is there like a little little trick or a little

874
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 3: thing that you have personally that works for you?

875
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 2: Oh?

876
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,240
Speaker 1: Well, I have the same breakfast the tournament.

877
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 3: That's my You know what is your go to breakfast? Oh?

878
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:20,360
Speaker 1: I love avocado toast with two fred eggs from both sides,

879
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,920
Speaker 1: over easy. It has to be perfect. I give so

880
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: much trouble to some of the places with this X.

881
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:28,800
Speaker 3: It has to be perfect.

882
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: It has to be perfect. I don't know. Maybe I'm

883
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 1: crazy and the smoke someone on the side.

884
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 3: That's my go to that your go to breakfast.

885
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,439
Speaker 1: I love this breakfast. I always come back to this.

886
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 3: One very specific. Yes, yeah, it's good.

887
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,320
Speaker 1: Maybe this and then I think about the bounce in

888
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,720
Speaker 1: the ball. I think it's all about the habit. Maybe

889
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: I actually pick the balls from the ball kids. I

890
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 1: always pick from, Like if I win the point and

891
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 1: I picked from, like it doesn't matter which corner, like

892
00:44:55,520 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: for example, from the right right corner, how the right

893
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 1: I mean left corner. I will keep like picking up

894
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,319
Speaker 1: the balls from that kid. I don't know why. It

895
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:12,120
Speaker 1: just like gives me, give me, I don't know, a

896
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:12,720
Speaker 1: good feeling.

897
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I feel like we all have these little

898
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:16,320
Speaker 3: things things.

899
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: As long as it as these things in your control,

900
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: it's good. When you like, you know, rely on something

901
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,720
Speaker 1: that it's not in our control, then it can become

902
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:26,280
Speaker 1: a problem.

903
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah. I mean, I'd be honest.

904
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 3: Any athlete I've ever interviewed who has continued to be

905
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 3: a high performer in their life for a long time

906
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,840
Speaker 3: has a definite breakfast for their game day. It's like

907
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 3: a very common trait, like to have a specific breakfast. Well,

908
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 3: you know, I have that continuity.

909
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 1: Because I love, like, for me, the man meal is breakfast.

910
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 1: I like to sit there enjoy my breakfast, have like

911
00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 1: have my cup of coffee and yeah, that's my ritual.

912
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 1: You know.

913
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, who do you? I asked this to know Bauck

914
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 3: recently when you on the show. It's like, who do

915
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:05,320
Speaker 3: you can consider your toughest opponent mentally?

916
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 1: Oh? Did he say?

917
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 3: He said himself himself. It's a good answer.

918
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 1: It's a good answer.

919
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 3: I'll cut that out. You can say as well.

920
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, myself. Thanks, no work, No, I cannot pick one.

921
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: You know why because everyone is tough, you know, like

922
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 1: it's tough, like everyone brings like different challenges, you know,

923
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 1: and it's tough to like say, okay, she's like the

924
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 1: toughest one for me, because then you underestimate the rest

925
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: of the group, which is not right. So all of

926
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:41,879
Speaker 1: them brings like different challenges. But I think, no work,

927
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 1: thank you for that.

928
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:47,840
Speaker 3: You're the biggest Yeah, you're your biggest mental competitive Yes,

929
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 3: because you're the one pushing yourself exactly exactly. It's a

930
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,360
Speaker 3: good answer. What about your toughest opponent physically.

931
00:46:54,440 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 1: Coco um Ego. Yeah, the two. Like I think physical

932
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:05,800
Speaker 1: brings the biggest challenge in what sense they move really great.

933
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 1: So sometimes you build a point and probably with others

934
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: like this show will be a winner. But with them

935
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,959
Speaker 1: sometimes you have to like rebuild the point. And yeah,

936
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,439
Speaker 1: physically it's not easy. Physically and mentally it's not easy,

937
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:21,040
Speaker 1: like to like, you know, stay stay strong and be

938
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,479
Speaker 1: ready that the ball going to come back every time,

939
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 1: and you have to like be really strong physically to

940
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:29,960
Speaker 1: handle that intensity.

941
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, how does it feel? Do you have lots? I'm

942
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 3: sure you have so many young tennis players, both men

943
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 3: and women coming up to you feeling inspired, excited about

944
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,320
Speaker 3: your journey, Like, how does that feel?

945
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 1: I think that's the goal in life. And I always

946
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 1: wanted to be a good example for next generation. And

947
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,440
Speaker 1: when kids run to me and say, I love you, You're

948
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:53,280
Speaker 1: my inspiration, that's you know, that's what I actually matters

949
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 1: in life.

950
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 3: What do you say to young athletes who are inspired

951
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 3: by you, are moved by you? What you advice to them?

952
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 3: What's your weds of wisdom?

953
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,600
Speaker 1: Surround yourself with the right people. That's the main thing,

954
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 1: because with the right people, you can achieve anything, just

955
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: good advice? Is it?

956
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:13,840
Speaker 3: Did it take you time to find the right people

957
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 3: to surround yourself with? Like, is that is that hard?

958
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: It's hard. It's really hard because there's so many, let's say,

959
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 1: interesting people around. But yeah, it took me. It took me.

960
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 1: It took me time. I was really happy to have

961
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 1: my uh my coach with me for you know, like

962
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 1: how many years already, my fitness coach and a tennis coach,

963
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 1: so they've been there for me. And and then find

964
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:43,919
Speaker 1: the right the right agent, the right I mean, yeah,

965
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 1: it took it took time to build the right people.

966
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it does. I feel like that's true in again,

967
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 3: in business, in sports, in everything finding you go through

968
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:53,759
Speaker 3: tough everything.

969
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, you go through being betrayed by someone, and you know,

970
00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,319
Speaker 1: like people come, people go, and it's a process. But

971
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 1: I feel like the moment you found your people, you

972
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: better stick to that group because this is what gives

973
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,240
Speaker 1: your energy and power to keep going.

974
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. I remember I had a physical therapist that I

975
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 3: was working with at a time, but we ended up

976
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 3: talking while I'd be doing physical therapy too, and it

977
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 3: was really interesting. She said to me once this was

978
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 3: years ago. This was like maybe six years ago now,

979
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 3: and she said to me, she said, yeah, it's funny,

980
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 3: like it feels like the only people that stress you

981
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 3: out are the people you pay. And because she was

982
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,920
Speaker 3: saying when I talk, when I am inventing, when I'm

983
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 3: saying something, she was saying, it was only the people

984
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,440
Speaker 3: in your professional world. She's like, it seems like your

985
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 3: personal life's great, like my relations with my wife, my

986
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,880
Speaker 3: relation with my family, my sister, my parents. But she

987
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,359
Speaker 3: was like, oh, it seems like whenever you're going through

988
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:50,759
Speaker 3: something painful, it's always to do something in your life

989
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,000
Speaker 3: that's part of your business. And it really was like

990
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 3: a moment for me because I was like, oh, I've

991
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 3: got to I've got to think about this as much

992
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 3: because I think when I first at least for me,

993
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 3: when I first started moving, I didn't know anyone in

994
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:05,160
Speaker 3: the entertainment industry, I didn't know anyone in this world,

995
00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:07,319
Speaker 3: and so I was just trying to surround myself with

996
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,320
Speaker 3: people who were smart, who knew what they were doing,

997
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 3: but they weren't necessarily on the same energy and vibrancy

998
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:14,720
Speaker 3: if that makes sense. Yeah, does that makes sense? Like, yeah,

999
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:16,640
Speaker 3: you've had to find people on the same frequency. Yeah.

1000
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's important to have people with a

1001
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 1: good energy, the energy that fits and that you yeah,

1002
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:27,360
Speaker 1: you understand each other, and this seems like your people

1003
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 1: you know.

1004
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why right now, when we said what do

1005
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 3: you want to get for food? You were like, now,

1006
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 3: my team knows me, you know, I trust them, like

1007
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:34,080
Speaker 3: it was.

1008
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: That's that's what I mean.

1009
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,800
Speaker 3: And this year you launched Arena's arena, right, yeah, actually

1010
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:42,440
Speaker 3: I love which is giving people more access. Yeah, I

1011
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,960
Speaker 3: know your team and the Dynamics talk to us about that. Yeah.

1012
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 1: I want to share myself. I want to share my life.

1013
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,799
Speaker 1: I want life. I want to, you know, show those

1014
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,840
Speaker 1: little kids that like we're all people like you know,

1015
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 1: you don't have to be perfect to be successful, right,

1016
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 1: And I want to show, oh, like what it takes to,

1017
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,960
Speaker 1: you know, to be where I am, and that is like,

1018
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,760
Speaker 1: that is real and you just got to work.

1019
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 3: The truth is, tennis is such an individual sport. And

1020
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 3: I've had the fortune of interviewing people from so many

1021
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 3: different sports, but tennis and Formula one are like so

1022
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 3: dependent on the individual in the sense that you're the

1023
00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 3: one playing in the game at the same time, like

1024
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 3: you said, there is a team, and so it's important

1025
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 3: to show that same in F one, there is a team,

1026
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,359
Speaker 3: but there's just so much even when you celebrate that day,

1027
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 3: like when you won, I was like, wait a minute,

1028
00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:51,520
Speaker 3: when you're on the court, you have to celebrate on

1029
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 3: your own, like the moment you win, Whereas if you

1030
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:57,360
Speaker 3: watch any other sport, the team will come together, players

1031
00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 3: run to each other, and it's like, obviously you can

1032
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,200
Speaker 3: do that when you get into the stands, but that

1033
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 3: moment you've got to savor it, like when you drop

1034
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 3: to your knees and you know.

1035
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was very very emotional moment. I still, you know,

1036
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: feel this because you know, yeah, you have a huge

1037
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 1: team and the amount of work that those guys putting

1038
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:23,839
Speaker 1: it's incredible. And I feel like kind of like responsible

1039
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,279
Speaker 1: for that because I know that they deserve to be

1040
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:30,240
Speaker 1: the best coaches, like the best agent, the best feasure,

1041
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,839
Speaker 1: like the best team, you know, So I feel responsible

1042
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 1: when I'm out there competing because doesn't matter how much

1043
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:38,640
Speaker 1: work they're put in, you know, it's at the end,

1044
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 1: it's like all depends on me, you know, and they

1045
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,439
Speaker 1: don't know, like if you know, if I'll go out

1046
00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 1: there and I'll play my best and if I'll win.

1047
00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: You know. So when I'm there competing, I'm not only

1048
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:53,239
Speaker 1: competing for myself. I compete for my team, but I'm

1049
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 1: like there and I'm responsible for that, you know, on

1050
00:52:56,280 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 1: my own. Yeah, yeah, exactly. So it's it's tough. And

1051
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,000
Speaker 1: that's why I feel like most of the athletes, like

1052
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 1: they not athletes, but tennis players and formult one they

1053
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,560
Speaker 1: sort of like crying after like winning something, because you know,

1054
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:15,399
Speaker 1: all that pressure, all that things in your head, they

1055
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 1: just slowly go away and you feel, Okay, I did it,

1056
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:22,799
Speaker 1: you know, But Formula one is another level. Like I'm

1057
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 1: a fan, I don't I don't know how how they

1058
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:28,200
Speaker 1: do that. It's like, you know, they put sort of

1059
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:30,839
Speaker 1: like their life in risk, and it's so fast and

1060
00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:35,360
Speaker 1: so crazy. And for me, this is intense.

1061
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I mean it's all intense because you know,

1062
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:38,719
Speaker 3: we have.

1063
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:43,040
Speaker 1: Breaks, like between the points between the games. Those guys

1064
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,760
Speaker 1: they're there for I don't know how long, like hour

1065
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,239
Speaker 1: and something right and they're there and like if they

1066
00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: just lose focus for a second, God, you know, this

1067
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:53,400
Speaker 1: is stuff.

1068
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,319
Speaker 3: It is scary knowing that you could take your own

1069
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 3: life and someone else's and it's got the sport. It's

1070
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 3: got so much safe for over time.

1071
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:00,920
Speaker 1: So it's yeah, I know it's safe for now, but

1072
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 1: still you know.

1073
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, what are there any sports that you watch

1074
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:05,880
Speaker 3: that you love that you follow.

1075
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 1: I love basketball, I love ice hockey, but it's not

1076
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,840
Speaker 1: like I really have like one team, one team that

1077
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,400
Speaker 1: I support. I just love to watch, especially like with

1078
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,600
Speaker 1: the basketball. Sitting on the court side. When I see

1079
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: the way those guys move, like with their like height

1080
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:28,880
Speaker 1: and everything, I'm like, I always like message my fitness

1081
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 1: coach and like, Okay, we gotta do something, you know.

1082
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:35,479
Speaker 1: But I'm like, I'm just like frozen in the moment

1083
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 1: because I just look how they move. You know, probably

1084
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 1: it's like a professional defect or something, you know, because

1085
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,440
Speaker 1: I just watched that they're like movement and it's it's crazy.

1086
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:45,400
Speaker 1: It's crazy what those.

1087
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,640
Speaker 3: You're watching a different game because you're looking at it.

1088
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,319
Speaker 1: I look at different things for me and Formula one.

1089
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:53,399
Speaker 1: I'm just like sitting there and I'm like, how they

1090
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:57,400
Speaker 1: can be focused for so long without like losing their focus,

1091
00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,720
Speaker 1: like corner after corner. It's crazy.

1092
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's repetitive as well it's like.

1093
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:05,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, like it's crazy, that's what. That's what

1094
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:07,000
Speaker 1: actually crazy?

1095
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, And how how much time do you

1096
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:13,799
Speaker 3: give yourself to now celebrate you're doing press today? I mean,

1097
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,040
Speaker 3: like we said, it's twenty four eight hours. How long

1098
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,080
Speaker 3: before you have to get back to training, back on

1099
00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:20,040
Speaker 3: the grind, back to the discipline.

1100
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:23,759
Speaker 1: Well, the schedule is tough, you know, but I think

1101
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,120
Speaker 1: I'm going to give myself a couple more days to celebrate,

1102
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:28,640
Speaker 1: and then we're going to go back back to work,

1103
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 1: but like also slowly, like starting probably from the gym,

1104
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 1: and then yeah, we're going to build up because we

1105
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:38,839
Speaker 1: have a couple more tournaments and then the finals, which

1106
00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:43,120
Speaker 1: is like top eight players compete for the you know,

1107
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 1: for the for another big trophy. So we have a

1108
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: couple more big tournaments coming up. But for now, I'm

1109
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:52,840
Speaker 1: gonna take a couple of days to celebrate because you know,

1110
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,799
Speaker 1: when I was struggling, I was always going back to

1111
00:55:56,840 --> 00:56:00,680
Speaker 1: those moments when I when I was winning those and slams,

1112
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 1: and I was like I was thinking, like I wish

1113
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 1: I could just experience that again, and I will celebrate

1114
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:09,680
Speaker 1: like crazy, because you never know if this woman is

1115
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:12,600
Speaker 1: gonna come again. You know. Of course you work, you hope,

1116
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,239
Speaker 1: you do your best, but at the end of the day,

1117
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:19,200
Speaker 1: you never know, right. So, so earlier this season, I

1118
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 1: said to myself, Okay, if I will win it this year,

1119
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:28,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna celebrate and I'll truly enjoy it,

1120
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,400
Speaker 1: you know. So the plan is for the next couple

1121
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:33,680
Speaker 1: of days, enjoy it. It's good.

1122
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:35,919
Speaker 3: It's good that you're honoring that, because sometimes you say

1123
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 3: that before and then after you win it. Now I

1124
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:39,520
Speaker 3: need to just get back to it.

1125
00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I'm like, I have this control like

1126
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm like that. I'm like, okay, I need to go back.

1127
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: But I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, we gotta it.

1128
00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 3: We gotta gotta do it.

1129
00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:47,920
Speaker 1: Enjoy it.

1130
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:50,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, we gotta do it. I love that. I loved

1131
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:52,719
Speaker 3: what you posted on your Instagram. You wrote to my team,

1132
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be here without you. But don't forget you

1133
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:55,960
Speaker 3: wouldn't be here without me.

1134
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 1: You wouldn't be me without joking.

1135
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:05,360
Speaker 3: Some little you know. Don't forget that's who I am.

1136
00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:05,560
Speaker 1: You know.

1137
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:10,680
Speaker 3: No, I genuinely, I genuinely love that you're honoring your

1138
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:13,800
Speaker 3: time and energy to celebrates. It's such a great reminder.

1139
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:15,960
Speaker 3: I feel like for years and years and years in

1140
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 3: my career, I was just going, going, going, going going,

1141
00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 3: and there was to be more mindful, to be more present,

1142
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 3: to really take it in because.

1143
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 1: And also mentally to be healthy. Right, it's important to

1144
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 1: balance this hard work with a little joy.

1145
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, you only come back sharper. Exactly have you found

1146
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 3: that as well? Has that been a big part of

1147
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:34,400
Speaker 3: your recovery. Just recognize you're talking about sleep earlier, Like,

1148
00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:36,920
Speaker 3: talk to me about the need for rest and recovery

1149
00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 3: and what you do to really find stillness.

1150
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: I feel like recovery is the key, you know. And

1151
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 1: if before I would blame myself even for going for

1152
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 1: a dinner during the tournament, because I would think I

1153
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:53,840
Speaker 1: would feel like, oh it just struck me, and I

1154
00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:56,760
Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to be focused tomorrow. No, it's wrong.

1155
00:57:56,840 --> 00:58:00,160
Speaker 1: You know, you have to you have to go for know,

1156
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 1: you have to do things that brings your joy. You

1157
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,600
Speaker 1: have to, like sleep, you have to focus on your

1158
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: recovery as well, because this is part of the process.

1159
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:12,680
Speaker 1: You know, like to be able physically and mentally handle

1160
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:17,360
Speaker 1: this pressure and this intensity, you have to have a

1161
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 1: good recovery. So it's also one of the main priorities

1162
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:21,720
Speaker 1: for us.

1163
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 3: I love that. So Aerna, I know you have this

1164
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:27,760
Speaker 3: battle of the Sexiest game coming up with Nick. Nick

1165
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:31,040
Speaker 3: had been on the show very excited about this repeat.

1166
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:32,560
Speaker 3: I don't think it's ever been done again.

1167
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 1: No, I think it's been done like a long long

1168
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:39,040
Speaker 1: time ago. Yeah, like really long. Yes, why was that?

1169
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 3: What was the year the seventies? Yeah, great, but it's

1170
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 3: been a while. Movie about if anyone hasn't seen the

1171
00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 3: actual game, that's a great movie about it too. And

1172
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 3: so with them a Stone, I think.

1173
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:49,959
Speaker 1: It's bringing it back.

1174
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:53,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's yeah, you're bringing it back. But what inspired this?

1175
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, since we're fighting for Ecopress money, I believe

1176
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 1: that's that's the reason. No, no, But mostly it's just

1177
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 1: I think it's fun and it's cool to see and

1178
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:09,760
Speaker 1: it's interesting for me to play against the man, and

1179
00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 1: I'm ready to kick his We're allowed to use this

1180
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:16,600

1181
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:19,640
Speaker 1: him right now, So I hope he's gonna just withdraw

1182
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: from from feeling all of the pressure.

1183
00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:23,960

Speaker 1: or Carloss. But no, not Nick.

1192
00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 3: This is turning into like a boxing match.

1193
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:53,080
Speaker 1: It feels like, yeah, I'll make sure that I'm I'll

1194
00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 1: send him some drinks before the before the bottle, just

1195
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 1: so you know.

1196
00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:57,920
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and you got some little tricks up your

1197
00:59:57,920 --> 00:59:58,520
Speaker 3: sleeve like that.

1198
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know, I'm gonna make sure he's not ready.

1199
01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:04,320
Speaker 3: I love it, And talk to me about this court change.

1200
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:06,840
Speaker 3: They're going to have to help make it make so.

1201
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:10,480
Speaker 1: Basically I'll be on the side with like a smaller

1202
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: court and here he has a yeah to hit and

1203
01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:18,720
Speaker 1: and he's he's going to be on the regular size,

1204
01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:22,560
Speaker 1: So kind of like unfair already, Radio.

1205
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:23,960
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's unfair.

1206
01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 1: And I think we're going to have one surfage. That's it.

1226
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,920
Speaker 3: every episode with a final five, So these have to

1227
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,760
Speaker 3: be answered in one word to one sentence maximum. Okay,

1228
01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:35,200
Speaker 3: but I always I always go away from that, so

1229
01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:38,520
Speaker 3: don't worry about it. Okay, Arena Savalanka, this is your

1230
01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:41,240
Speaker 3: final five. The first question is what is the best

1231
01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:43,120
Speaker 3: advice you've ever heard or received.

1232
01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 1: Focus on yourself and don't listen to people because most

1233
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,480
Speaker 1: of the people want you to fail. So focus on

1234
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:53,960
Speaker 1: yourself and on people close to you.

1235
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:58,160
Speaker 3: Who said that to you? My father, that's awesome. How

1236
01:01:58,160 --> 01:01:59,400
Speaker 3: old were you when you first said that?

1237
01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:02,760
Speaker 1: He said it to me when I was seventeen. I think, okay,

1238
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,120
Speaker 1: he was waiting probably for the moment for me to

1239
01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 1: be ready to I don't know, to accept some sort

1240
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:13,320
Speaker 1: of deep advice.

1241
01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,680
Speaker 3: Actually, how long before you feel you really took it

1242
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 3: to heart and really understood it?

1243
01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:20,960
Speaker 1: Maybe when he passed away. You know, I feel like

1244
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:26,560
Speaker 1: when we're losing a person, this is the moment when

1245
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:30,760
Speaker 1: we actually realize how much well last, you know, like,

1246
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:36,040
Speaker 1: and we appreciate every little small detail. And the memory

1247
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:38,600
Speaker 1: is kep still coming up in my head, you know,

1248
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:43,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, you know, so you have to You

1249
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 1: have to appreciate if you still have your family just

1250
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 1: for people, you have to appreciate it. And you have

1251
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:54,880
Speaker 1: to really take care of your closest one.

1252
01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 3: Do you keep any physical part of them on you

1253
01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 3: anytime when you're playing, or in your bag or anywhere

1254
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 3: or not. Really, that's it's more in your heart.

1255
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:03,959
Speaker 1: It's more in my heart. It's more in my heart.

1256
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:09,280
Speaker 1: When he passed away, I had audiers from him. But

1257
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 1: then I was crying like crazy when I uh, when

1258
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 1: I figured that they disappeared after like a year, and

1259
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:17,800
Speaker 1: I didn't like record it, saving it somehow. I was

1260
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:21,160
Speaker 1: in in the app just to like keep his voice,

1261
01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:23,840
Speaker 1: and because he wasn't the person who would like take

1262
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 1: a lot of videos, you know, like pictures and stuff.

1263
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:30,440
Speaker 1: I don't have that either either, so I was really depressed.

1264
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:33,280
Speaker 1: I don't have his like voice, but he's in my

1265
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:35,040
Speaker 1: in my heart, in my memory. I think that's the

1266
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:36,240
Speaker 1: most important.

1267
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:39,560
Speaker 3: Beautiful Question number two, what is the worst advice you've

1268
01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:40,560
Speaker 3: ever heard or received?

1269
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:43,680
Speaker 1: You know, like bad things never stay in my head?

1270
01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:44,920
Speaker 3: So good answer.

1271
01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:49,400
Speaker 1: I don't remember any like bad advice with I am.

1272
01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:55,320
Speaker 3: Maybe good answer, all right, very cool. Question number three,

1273
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, oh, what would you say are your

1274
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 3: three most life changing games that you've ever played? Three

1275
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:06,440
Speaker 3: much life changing matches and they don't have to be

1276
01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:07,440
Speaker 3: finals or wins.

1277
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:14,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the semi final against Medicine. Key said

1278
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:19,160
Speaker 1: that you was open two years ago. I think, yeah,

1279
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:22,680
Speaker 1: two years side that one because I was down set

1280
01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:24,480
Speaker 1: and I think five to one or something, and I

1281
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:26,160
Speaker 1: came back in the match and I want that one

1282
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:28,520
Speaker 1: and I made my first finals. So I think there

1283
01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:32,920
Speaker 1: was the moment when when I realized a lot of things.

1284
01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 3: How does it feel to be five to one down?

1285
01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:39,600
Speaker 1: Oh feels feels terrible. It's a terrible feeling. But you're

1286
01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:41,840
Speaker 1: still hoping that maybe.

1287
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:44,200
Speaker 3: How do you keep hoping that moment? Because five one

1288
01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:46,800
Speaker 3: is literally like, yeah, it's like your life.

1289
01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:48,840
Speaker 1: Against big server.

1290
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,960
Speaker 3: You know, you're like no chance, I don't know what

1291
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:52,720
Speaker 3: are you holding on to?

1292
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,360
Speaker 1: You just trying, you know, like you I was like

1293
01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:57,600
Speaker 1: reminding myself. I mean, it's a dream to be in

1294
01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:00,880
Speaker 1: the semis, so there there is no way you're going

1295
01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:03,760
Speaker 1: to give up, even like it doesn't matter how things

1296
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:06,840
Speaker 1: going on and how badly it is, you have to

1297
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,400
Speaker 1: like still try and then maybe maybe there's going to

1298
01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:11,080
Speaker 1: be a moment when you figure it something and you

1299
01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 1: find your game, you're eat them when you get the win.

1300
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 1: And I did it and it was kind of like

1301
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 1: a life changing moment. Then oh what else? Winning the

1302
01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 1: first slam, of course gave me huge, huge belief you

1303
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: know that, Okay, I'm capable of it, and my life

1304
01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 1: wasn't waste of time, you know. And the third one.

1305
01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 3: Your life was definitely not a waste.

1306
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 1: No, but you know, I want just you know, like

1307
01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:46,200
Speaker 1: it's it would be really difficult for me to finish

1308
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:51,120
Speaker 1: my career without the Slam. And the third one, I

1309
01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:59,280
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know there was one much when

1310
01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 1: I want there's a tournament and do and I won

1311
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:03,600
Speaker 1: the tournament. But I think in quitter finals I was

1312
01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:06,880
Speaker 1: also like down the set and was struggling a lot,

1313
01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:10,080
Speaker 1: was playing really not my best tennis, and I want

1314
01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:12,360
Speaker 1: that match and then I want the tournament also was

1315
01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:14,960
Speaker 1: kind of like a big moment for me.

1316
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:17,840
Speaker 3: I think the three it's amazing that the two of

1317
01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,800
Speaker 3: the ones you chose are when you're down, yeah, and

1318
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,400
Speaker 3: you come back like there's something.

1319
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 1: This is the moment where you like gives you like

1320
01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:29,640
Speaker 1: that power because next monch you play, you think, oh,

1321
01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:32,120
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, I've been down five one Seriously,

1322
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 1: you think that I'm going to give up like that

1323
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:36,880
Speaker 1: just because I lose my surf or whatever. So it

1324
01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 1: just gives you that power to fight.

1325
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:41,360
Speaker 3: Yeah. It's a great reminder to all of us that

1326
01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:43,760
Speaker 3: no matter what, those the moments to look out for

1327
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:46,880
Speaker 3: because they become your best story, they become your best glory.

1328
01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:49,760
Speaker 1: There, stay there, keep fighting, and this is this is

1329
01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:51,200
Speaker 1: probably the biggest moment.

1330
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:55,400
Speaker 3: Yeah. Question number three, what do you think people misunderstand

1331
01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:57,320
Speaker 3: about you that you'd like to clarify.

1332
01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 1: Well, I think because now I'm sharing myself more on

1333
01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:04,960
Speaker 1: social media, they have better understanding about me. But I

1334
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,760
Speaker 1: think there's still some people that they think that the

1335
01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 1: way I'm on court this is like a reflection of

1336
01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:13,880
Speaker 1: me off court, which is not true because I think,

1337
01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:17,840
Speaker 1: as I said earlier, you know, I'm quite aggressive because

1338
01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:20,479
Speaker 1: I'm on court because I'm fighting from my dream there

1339
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:24,360
Speaker 1: and this is not the time where you have to

1340
01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 1: be nice. Yeah, because of the court, I'm much nicer,

1341
01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:31,320
Speaker 1: Like I'm chill. It's really tough to get into a

1342
01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:34,400
Speaker 1: fight with me, you know, so you have to do

1343
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:38,880
Speaker 1: something terrible. Probably my boyfriend will say different, but I

1344
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:44,880
Speaker 1: still think, yeah, so people misunderstand that that I'm different.

1345
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:48,400
Speaker 3: Yes, if people say like, oh, she's too emotional or

1346
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 3: unstable or whatever it is, You're like, that's just on

1347
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:51,959
Speaker 3: the court.

1348
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,360
Speaker 1: I have to that's yeah, that's on the court. That's

1349
01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:55,240
Speaker 1: arena on the court.

1350
01:07:55,640 --> 01:07:58,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's not arena of course. Yeah, I get that.

1351
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:01,000
Speaker 3: I mean this sounds ridiculou, but it's so true. Like

1352
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:05,000
Speaker 3: me and my friends just play amateur everything, Like I

1353
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:08,280
Speaker 3: don't play any sport well, but we get so competitive

1354
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:12,200
Speaker 3: just playing around. So I can't imagine love.

1355
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:15,960
Speaker 1: Watching like you know people, yeah, play play tennis for fun.

1356
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:18,200
Speaker 1: That's what I can't even But they're not taking it

1357
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: as fun, you know, they go full.

1358
01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:22,559
Speaker 3: Exactly and you're like actually playing a tournament. Like I'm like,

1359
01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:24,800
Speaker 3: I'm pretty, I'm pretty. All my friends know that when

1360
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:28,000
Speaker 3: we're playing a sport, I'm extremely competitive and I'm not

1361
01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:30,760
Speaker 3: like that in real life or in person, you know.

1362
01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:33,439
Speaker 3: And that's and I'm not even playing the final lot,

1363
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:35,040
Speaker 3: you know. And so yeah, there's there has to be

1364
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:36,960
Speaker 3: a bit of grace. I feel like there has to

1365
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:38,920
Speaker 3: be a bit of grace for athletes. I'm like, you're

1366

01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:42,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, I trying. The trying is the most important part.

1386
01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:44,439
Speaker 3: It's wonderful to hear you say that. It's it's really

1387
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 3: specially if you remind kids to try. I think that

1388
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,240
Speaker 3: would help a lot of kids. Yeah, because not you know,

1389
01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:52,320
Speaker 3: not every kid will become number one, but every kid

1390
01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:53,880
Speaker 3: can try and chase their dream. That would be a

1391
01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:54,680
Speaker 3: good world to live in.

1392
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:58,240

01:09:58,600 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 1: can do.

1394
01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:01,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. Fifth and final question Arena. We asked this to

1395
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:04,880
Speaker 3: every guest who's ever been on the show. The question is,

1396
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:07,760
Speaker 3: if you could create one law that everyone in the

1397
01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:09,360
Speaker 3: world had to follow. What would it be.

1398
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:16,960
Speaker 1: I want everything to be decided in the conversation and

1399
01:10:18,160 --> 01:10:21,840
Speaker 1: no wars and stuff, just like sit down, speak and

1400
01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:24,240
Speaker 1: figure it all of the problems.

1401
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:26,639
Speaker 3: That's a great law.

1402
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,479
Speaker 1: That's what we need in the world right now.

1403
01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:33,920
Speaker 3: Save a lot of lives. Yeah, save a lot of lives. Yeah.

1404
01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 3: If we were able to solve things by just.

1405
01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: By talking, sitting and figuring and not leaving the room

1406
01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:41,400
Speaker 1: before you figure it something.

1407
01:10:42,080 --> 01:10:44,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a great answer. We never had that before.

Speaker 3: Lewis Hamilton. Lewis and I talk about why you should

1420
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:22,680
Speaker 3: stop chasing society's definition of success and how to be

1421
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:26,080
Speaker 3: more intentional with your goals. You don't want to miss it,

1422
01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:28,840
Speaker 3: Like it's not about being perfect. It's about just every day,

1423
01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:30,679
Speaker 3: one step at a time, trying to be better, trying

1424
01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:33,080
Speaker 3: to do more. I'm learning a lot about myself, how

1425
01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:35,760
Speaker 3: to break myself down in order to be able to

1426
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:36,280
Speaker 3: be better.
