1
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 1: Well, welcome to another edition of the AO Rap, recapping

2
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,799
Speaker 1: the end of each day's play. You're with the late crew.

3
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: I'm Bret Thomas.

4
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 2: And I'm Lexi Mitchell. Here's your quick hit from day six.

5
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 2: Alex Dimenor achieves an assie first on rod Labor Arena

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 2: and another teenager puts her name on the map.

7
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: Daniel Medvedev pulls another rabbit out of a hat and

8
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: arena and Carlos push ahead. AO Radio's Nat Edwards takes

9
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 1: you through the daytime results on the evening serve.

10
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 3: Before six three Deliver and step four polume.

11
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: Tonight, Well, a bit of history tonight for Alex Dimenor

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: are defeating Francis Tiafo in straight sets. It's the fifth

13
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: consecutive fourth round appearance at the AO. No Australian has

14
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: done that before since the tournament moved from a Couyong

15
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: to Melbourne Park. That is remarkable. Consistency, Lexi and ability

16
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: to thrive under pressure.

17
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, consistency seems like the name of Alex's game. He

18
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: was super relentless today, even though it seemed as though

19
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: statistically Tiafo and dimon All weren't too dissimilar. It was

20
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: the long points, his relentlessness, his precision under pressure that

21
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 2: really pushed Tiafo trying to go big and creative with

22
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 2: his shots and then ultimately coughing up errors when it mattered.

23
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, how frustrating must it be? Normally nine times out

24
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 1: of ten that you know, a winning shot is a

25
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: winning shot, but not when you're facing Demonor. You need

26
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 1: to have your runners on because he is going to

27
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: be chasing down every single ball.

28
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: I've got a question, Yeah, if Alex was to play Alex,

29
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 2: how many years would that match go for?

30
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 4: Oh, that's a great question.

31
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: That sounds like a Christopher Nolan film, like Inception, that

32
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: could just go forever. And I think sometimes people underrate

33
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: that quality, that speed, because you think, Okay, well, when

34
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: he comes up against Sinner or El Kraz, well that's

35
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: not going to mean to think because they're just so powerful.

36
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: But Tiafa got a powerful game, but he just lacked

37
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: that extra you know, five ten percent that dim and

38
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: or has his ability to stick it out until the end,

39
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: which he was able to do tonight.

40
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, And what was impressive for me was not just

41
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: his speed, but the shots that he was putting down

42
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: at full stretch. In the first set, there were two

43
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 2: last points to get to get the break at five

44
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: to three, and they were perfect back ends down the line.

45
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, it's not just defensive shots. It's sort of,

46
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,839
Speaker 1: you know, turning defense into offense. And you know what

47
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: you talk about dimon Or not having big weapons. But

48
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: his serve even though it was quite a lowish, you know,

49
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: sort of mid range in terms of percentage on first

50
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: serve tonight, but he can still pop them. He can

51
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: get over two hundred clicks an hour, and his groundstrokes

52
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: are quite powerful as well.

53
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he put a bit of fairy dust on his racket,

54
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 2: particularly in the second set. At one point put Tiafo

55
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 2: on his bottom. It's sort of really stretching him a

56
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: bit like a pretzel across each point. In the second set,

57
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: Alex got a double break. Tiafo was a to slow,

58
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: He's run a little bit and break back at five

59
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,839
Speaker 2: to three, but ultimately the demon was able to serve

60
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 2: out that second set six to four. Yeah.

61
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: It was a similar story in the third set as well,

62
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: where the demon Or got the break in the first

63
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: game but then had a little trouble serving out the match.

64
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the double faults crept up on him

65
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 2: a little bit, even as he was serving out in

66
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: that final game. He had six double faults across the match,

67
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: not too many, but just enough that it's a bit

68
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 2: frustrating when it is such a close match to try

69
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 2: to get an advantage in so.

70
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: Great work from Demonor tonight winning in straight sets. I

71
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: don't think anyone really thought there might be that straightforward,

72
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: although TrFO did have his moments, but he's just that

73
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: fraction off the top ten where the Demonor is at.

74
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: He's ranked or was seated twenty nine coming into this tournament,

75
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: and you could see the difference between the two tonight.

76
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, And I think what surprised me. I've

77
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 2: felt as though Tiafo has been a successful player here

78
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: in Melbourne, but it was only his twenty nineteen quarter

79
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: final where he has ever pushed past the third.

80
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's made two semi finals at the US Open,

81
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: but he's twenty eight years of age, a little bit

82
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: similar to a sits A pass. I know Medvedev is

83
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: now having a moment, but maybe they were that bridging

84
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: generation in between feder and Nadal, Djokovic and now Sinner

85
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: and al KaAZ where Medvedev's won. He slammed sits a

86
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: pass has been in some finals, but perhaps it's starting

87
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: to move past them in terms of being able to

88
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: compete at the point the end. And he goes out

89
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: in the third round tonight, and again, well done to

90
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 1: Alex Dimenol.

91
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 5: I played some of my best tennis in the tournament

92
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 5: for two and a half sets, and he just lifted

93
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 5: it when he needed it and he started going big.

94
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 5: He's so returning and playing with some great depth, taking

95
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 5: the racket out of my hand, and look, I just

96
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 5: had to just manage it, and there was quite stressful

97
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 5: at the end, but I'm very relieved that I got

98
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 5: over the line.

99
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 2: Alex Dimenoor will play Alexander Bublick next in a rematch

100
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 2: of their French Open epic, where Bublick won from two

101
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 2: sets down. He continued haunting the demon last year. Following

102
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: on from that, he beat Alex in the Paris Masses

103
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 2: one thousand from a set down as well.

104
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 4: The biggest win of her career.

105
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 6: Eighteen year old Evan She's into the film Romans of

106
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 6: the Australian Open for the very first time.

107
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 7: Well.

108
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: Eva Yovich, just eighteen years of age, Seated twenty nine

109
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: at this tournament, defeated the seventh seed, Jasmine Paullini six

110
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: to seven, six, seven points to three in the tie break.

111
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 1: She's a teenager, a virtual unknown leading into this tournament,

112
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: but I think we're all going to remember that name

113
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: now for sure.

114
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 2: She is really putting herself on the map. She's the

115
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 2: Auckland semifinalist from this year, the Hobart runner up. She's

116
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 2: now the WTA leader for wins in twenty twenty six.

117
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 2: At eighteen years of age, she's the youngest player in

118
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 2: the top one hundred. This is the furthest she's gone

119
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: in a Grand Slam, and Melbourne Park isn't too foreign

120
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: to her. She was a twenty twenty four Australian Open

121
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 2: Junior Girls doubles champion as well.

122
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: A little bit of some issues serving out the match

123
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: or closing out the match, but certainly in the first

124
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:04,799
Speaker 1: set she was very impressive.

125
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: She was She dominated Paulini in that first set, jumping

126
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 2: out of the gates three love, but then waved under

127
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 2: pressure in the second, where she had two opportunities to

128
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 2: serve out the match and was failed both times in

129
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: closing it out, but she did win the last five

130
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 2: points of the tiebreak to win the match and get

131
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 2: her first top ten win.

132
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, her mentality will be testing again. Stafiri Yulia putin

133
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: savor though next to had a bit of back and

134
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: forth with the crowd today, which is not unusual for her.

135
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: She was playing an opponent from Turkey who had the

136
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: line share of the crowd support on her side, but

137
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 1: she danced her way into a fourth round showdown with

138
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: Iva Yovich giving it to the crowd afterwards. But if

139
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: she wants some advice about keeping a steady head, then Yovich,

140
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 1: who grew up in California in the US, but her

141
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: parents had migrated over from Serbia. So she's got Novak

142
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: Djokovic in her corner and gave the young player from

143
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,239
Speaker 1: America a little bit of advice leading into that match.

144
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, I was. It was just to open up the

145
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 8: court a little bit better tonight, to not rush into

146
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 8: the shots all the time, find some more with So

147
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 8: I tried to do that and it was it ended well.

148
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 8: So I'm just going to try to keep listening to

149
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 8: Nolvak all.

150
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,559
Speaker 1: Right, Speaking of young guns, Mira on Drevea today, getting

151
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: the job done against Alanda Gabriella russe A six three six',

152
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: four someone we've spoken a lot about her hot form.

153
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 2: Continues, yeah she took the first set, convincingly but had

154
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: a bit of trouble in the. Second there were five

155
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 2: breaks of serve in a.

156
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 4: Row she just.

157
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 2: Didn't look completely, comfortable but you were happy with how

158
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,760

00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 11: because she does have a really tough match coming up

314
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 11: as we.

315
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 4: Know, yeah she does In victoria And. Boca we'll get

316
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 4: to her in just a.

317
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 10: Minute sablinka hitting thirty four winners in that, match but

318
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 10: she also had forty four unforced, eras so she's really

319
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 10: going to need to clean up that part of her

320
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 10: game if she wants to go deep in this. Tournament

321
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 10: and as you mentioned, there it's the nineteen year Old

322
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 10: Victorian boco who will Face Saba lenka in the round of.

323
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 10: Sixteen her score in her match Against Clara towson was

324
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 10: seven six, five seven six.

325
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 4: Three just seemed like a very mature.

326
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 10: Performance given she was able to sort of reset in

327
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 10: the third after losing that second, SET i think she

328
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 10: even had three match.

329
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 7: She, did she actually did have three match.

330
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 11: Points AND i think the most remarkable thing About Victoria

331
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 11: mboco is this time last year she was ranked outside

332
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 11: the top three, hundred competing at lower level events in The,

333
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 11: caribbean and this is actually Her Australian open main draw,

334
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 11: deboot but you wouldn't know it from the composure that

335
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 11: she is. Showing and as you, said she had three

336
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 11: match points in that second set and let them, slip

337
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 11: but close it out in the third.

338
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 7: Set so, yeah incredible maturity.

339
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 10: And in other results from a women's, Perspective but we

340
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 10: recently just Had coco go off the third. Seed she

341
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 10: dropped the first set against Fellow american and a friend

342
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 10: of course and haileyb, tasty but she recovered to win

343
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 10: three six six love in that second set six.' three

344
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 10: she was out played in that. First set she didn't

345
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 10: hit a winner, at All, did coco and served four.

346
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 4: Double faults so she looked a little.

347
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 10: Bit nervy, at times but then just like flick the

348
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 10: switch and played a little bit more aggressive and thank

349
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 10: goodness for her sake she.

350
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 11: Got, THROUGH yeah i sometimes wonder how hard it must

351
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 11: be to play against, a FRIEND and i feel like

352
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 11: perhaps we saw that in that. First set, but yeah

353
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 11: incredible Research from coco and really stormtime.

354
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 4: NOW when i.

355
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 10: Was, reading, oh actually before we get, to that there

356
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 10: was another women's Match Which key arena was absolutely. Buzzing

357
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 10: today tells us a little bit more about that Because

358
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 10: the turkish fans were out.

359
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 11: In, FORCE yeah, i Mean the turkish fans have really

360
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 11: got behind Zanaps on meds, this week as they should

361
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 11: because she's come. Through QUALIFY if i had that will

362
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 11: Win over alexandrova in the, first round, So, story yeah

363
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 11: and really sort of shown herself as such a great

364
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 11: passionate competitor and a really nice person. As well so

365
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 11: there's been incredible support for her and really fought to

366
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 11: force that match to a, third set couldn't quite get over.

367
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 11: The LINE but i think she will take a lot from.

368
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 10: This, Experience Yeah So julia partiniciva getting the job done in,

369
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 10: that one and there was a little bit of by

370
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 10: Play between participa And the turkish fans at the end

371
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 10: there they WERE just i think potentially making a little

372
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 10: bit of noise while she was serving.

373
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 4: As well there was lots of Support for.

374
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:44,000

389
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 10: your champions your outside Chance Was daniel medvedev and he

390
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 10: was in action today but dropped the first.

391
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 4: Two, sets ye you still think he can be an?

392
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 4: OUTSIDE chance, i.

393
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 7: DO actually i.

394
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 11: THINK that i was actually Up in brisbane for some of,

395
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 11: that TOURNAMENTS so i was following the results really closely,

396
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 11: up there and he had a great Performance. In brisbane

397
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 11: when he's twenty, second title he's just got, you know

398
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 11: he's changed his coaching team now Working With thomas Johansson And,

399
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 11: Rowin getski, AND yeah i just got this Vibe that danielle.

400
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 11: Is back, you know he wants this season to be,

401
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 11: you know. His season he's been a form he has

402
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 11: been a world number ONE and i think he really

403
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,640
Speaker 11: wants to get to that. Position again, and yeah as,

404
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 11: we know he did have to work really, hard today,

405
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 11: but yeah he said that he looked up at the

406
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 11: scoreboard and Saw that lernatier and his potential fourth round

407
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 11: opponent had come through in, straight sets and he was

408
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 11: still he would have to fight back from two, sets

409
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 11: down but he, did that so that could be a

410
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 11: turning point.

411
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 10: FOR him i like, that prediction the, outside CHANCE and

412
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 10: i think you are. Spot on there's something about him

413
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,919
Speaker 10: that's a little, bit different the way that, he's walking

414
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 10: in the way that he's holding himself out. On Court

415
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 10: So daniel medvedev could be one smoky that could get the.

416
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 10: Job done he Actually mentioned Victoria and boco before the

417
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,440
