Speaker 1: go straight back. This is sim it's a very professional production.

20
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: We went out of our way to make sure he

21
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: still had a job after the Australian Open and he

22
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: funks up every step.

23
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 4: Of the world.

Speaker 4: Yeah, I actually leave tomorrow at six a m.

26
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's fine.

27
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 4: About a couple of lazy days and something to do

28
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 4: for one day, and I thought, why not?

29
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, the podcast, and that's the Acapocos coming up already.

30
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, so Acapulco will get there nice and early, have

31
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 4: a few days to try to adjust the conditions going

32
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 4: from inside to outside. And it's obviously very hot there.

33
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: So yeah. And he won Acapolco two years ago.

34
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 4: He won back to back years years ago.

35
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, hell yeah, all right, so you're gonna go just

36
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: party it up while he's playing tennis every day.

37
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 4: Well, there are some night some player parties at night,

38
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 4: but no, I think I've done enough of that since

39
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 4: I've been home. It's time to probably get serious.

40
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: Again, right and Mexic. When you win Acapolco, don't they

41
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: give you a giant like sombrero? To where did you

42
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: get one of those? As well?

43
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 5: No?

44
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 4: I didn't. I didn't even get a mini one. He's

45
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 4: got two and he didn't give me one yet.

46
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: You didn't even get a fedorra na na.

47
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 4: A bit disappointing. But maybe this year they might.

48
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: Maybe this year. What was the Rotterdam, Like, obviously he

49
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: just won it. It was his third year in a

50
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: row being in the final and he finally took it

51
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: out against Felix age ali Assieme. What was the I

52
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,959
Speaker 1: mean besides it not being center Alcaaz like, what do

53
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: you think was the big difference?

54
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 4: I just think he's done very well to back up

55
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 4: a great Aussie summer. It's really hard and I think

56
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 4: that's why we put that torm in the schedule, just

57
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 4: to try and reset and go again, because he's obviously

58
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 4: no matter how well you doing the Ausy, if you lose,

59
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 4: it's a bit disappointing because you obviously want to go

60
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 4: as far as you can, so to reset and turn

61
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 4: it around. He's done very well to get through. And yeah,

62
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 4: obviously the big two weren't there, but Felix is pretty

63
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 4: close behind on the indoor hard so it's good to

64
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 4: get a comfortable win over him.

65
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: And Felix had just one and mink Pellier so he

66
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: was in forum.

67
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think Alex actually lost to him at the

68
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 4: US Open as well, which kind of hurt him a

69
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 4: bit mentally, So to get one over him it was

70
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 4: quite nice.

71
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: I think. Hmm, it's got his revenge.

72
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 3: Now, yeah, you said earlier you were one of the

73
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 3: Demon's coaches. Do you work on specific things like do

74
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 3: you all have a role.

75
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 4: No, not really, it's just more like time. So Adolpho

76
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 4: Gutierres has been his coach since he was about five

77
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 4: years old. So, and he's got a family in kids,

78
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 4: a wife and kids, so he spends we go four

79
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 4: weeks on, four weeks off, and then we just kind

80
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 4: of go through the year like that. It's also Alex. Yeah,

81
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 4: it's also Alex, probably a fresh face. Otherwise too much,

82
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 4: too much him, we might get sick of each other

83
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 4: pretty quick.

84
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

85
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: And are you fluent in Spanish as well?

86
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 4: I'm the only one who speaks no Spanish, so sometimes

87
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 4: they all yeah, they probably are probably not good things.

88
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 4: It's probably better that I don't know, learning bits and pieces,

89
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 4: but not great.

90
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: That's green.

91
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: It was. It's his birthday, I think today as we record, Yeah, birthday. Yeah, yeah, he.

92
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 4: Probably just waking up now to his birthday.

93
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: Right. Did you get him anything?

94
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 4: No, I didn't get him anything. Didn't give me a sobrero,

95
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 4: so yes, I think a message for his birthday is

96
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 4: pretty good.

97
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. But man, like I'm interested in,

98
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: like what you've done in the tennis world. You used

99
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: to be doubles partners with a Bernard Tomic.

100
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was one of my partners. Yeah, when we

101
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 4: went through the juniors, and then I moved on, played

102
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 4: a bit with JP Smith and then with Nick and

103
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 4: a lot with Alex at the end. So I mixed

104
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 4: it up as much as I could. I wasn't very

105
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 4: good at keeping the same partner, so I like playing

106
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 4: with as many people as I.

107
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 3: Could, right, And then you moved into coaching.

108
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, pretty quickly after that.

109
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Bernie Tomic made you quit tennis.

110
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 4: What you're saying he was different but actually a really

111
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 4: really nice, harmless guy. But I think he actually is

112
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 4: a bit missceen and like misread in the media because

113
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 4: he's actually a really nice guy.

114
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's getting back in, like I know, he's

115
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: playing qualifyings for the Yeah, and then yeah, I just

116
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: didn't get through.

117
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 4: It's good to see him back playing because he's Yeah,

118
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 4: he's a great guy. He's a great talent, and unfortunately

119
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 4: I think some other things have gotten the way of

120
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 4: him achieving the best of his tennis.

121
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: On that, do you subscribe to his ex girlfriend's only.

122
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 2: Fans just on that.

123
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,559
Speaker 3: What a segue that was, Like I felt the break

124
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 3: screeching and that I heard.

125
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: You don't have to answer that.

126
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 4: I was going to say, I have not.

127
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: It took a long time to answer that. Well, yeah,

128
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 1: that's great. I mean it's awesome to have Bernie you know,

129
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 1: back and applying himself and like you know, hopefully gets

130
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: a deeper run in some of the upcoming tournaments in

131
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: that and then yeah, so you'll be Mexico and then

132
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: are you going to Palm Springs for Indian Wells.

133
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 4: So I'll go Apulco in Wells and Miami. That's my

134
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 4: little schedule and then have a few weeks off and

135
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 4: meet over the week.

136
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: Before the French I mean, not bad.

137
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 3: It sounds pretty good.

138
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're doing the Sunshine Double and the only one

139
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: you skipped was what the Winter Rotter down?

140
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, the English speaking countries. I try and do

141
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 4: a lot of the English speaking so he'll stick to

142
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 4: a lot of Europe And for me, it's my favorite swing.

143
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 4: So I'm pretty happy that I get to go to

144
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 4: these these three.

145
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, what a lot.

146
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 3: I know we should be coaches.

147
00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen you play, you're not well the the

148
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: endgame with us, the ultimate goal is that we got

149
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: to all the slams, and you know we're on the ground,

150
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: we're reporting.

151
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 3: What do you think they'll take us seriously?

152
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 4: A few of them will, I think every now and

153
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 4: that it's nice to have like a lighthearted chat. You

154
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 4: see the other sides of players, not just the token

155
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 4: serious answers that you get every week.

156
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: They getting so bored of the generic questions. So you

157
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: know they're not getting asked if they subscribe to Bernie Thomas.

158
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,119
Speaker 4: I can already see the click bait for the social media.

159
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I don't know if you want to

160
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: talk about this, but our producer unearthed this. He did

161
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: some digging that you dated Rebel Wilson for a little while.

162
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 4: I've never actually spoken about this. Well, we're good friends. Yeah,

163
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 4: we did go on a couple of dates but then

164
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 4: turned into a friendship and we're still friends to this day.

165
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 4: We actually grew up in exactly the same area in

166
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 4: Sydney and I went to school with her brother.

167
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: Right because I know her uncle runs a tennis club or.

168
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, it wasn't anything to do with that. It was

169
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 4: actually I found all this out after her, but it

170
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 4: was the app rayer.

171
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 3: Oh, I haven't seen you on there, but I'm not

172
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 3: on there anymore because I only got a month for

173
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 3: the AO because I was trying to snag a tennis

174
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 3: player and that became the segment. And then every time

175
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 3: they asked me how it was going, I just went nothing, nothing,

176
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 3: it's zero hits tournament, so you app well, I only

177
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 3: had a month subscription. It's quite expensive, guys. I I'm

178
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 3: not going to keep it for you guys to make

179
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 3: fun of me. How about I paid an out of

180
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 3: sixty dollars so Mike can tell me that I'm a loser.

181
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll do that for free exactly.

182
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 4: She's actually pretty good. Yeah, she plays a lot. We

183
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 4: had a lot of hits of tennis with her, and

184
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 4: yeah it was it was good. Like I think that's

185
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 4: part of the reason why we got along quite well.

186
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 4: She loves tennis.

187
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, she needs a sponsorship deal with Wilson.

188
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 4: I think she's got one. No way, I don't know

189
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 4: if that's accurate, but I know she's got a fair

190
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 4: bit of Wilson kid.

191
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, they probably sister that checks out.

192
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I'm gonna change my name to Wilson, Mike Slazinger,

193
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: get some balls. I am low well man, like I

194
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: hope to see you. I'll be over at Indian Well.

195
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 3: Oh yes, you should hang out.

196
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but you'll have an exclusive pass to all.

197
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 4: The Yeah maybe a little bit.

198
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, Jim, I feel like you're gonna act like

199
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: you don't know me.

200
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 3: You're like, hey, Matt, Matt, remember from the podcast. You

201
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: can just keep walking that permission to just keep it

202
00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 3: for some podcast.

203
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,079
Speaker 1: Uh, Matt as a coach, because I play a bit

204
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: of tennis. I played today in the wind, yeah, and

205
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 1: I got killed. Well, it was like the wind or

206
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: the player, the when the player like my own brain,

207
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 1: my own mental fortitude lack of and he tips when

208
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: it's real windy and you generally have no athletic ability whatsoever.

209
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 3: And some for the mental as well. I think throw

210
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 3: that in. That's what he needs the most.

211
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 4: Probably hit big guitar, hit it to big targets. Give

212
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 4: yourself more leewaight to me, margin yeah, margin to me?

213
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah, not like come in more in the

214
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 1: point qu.

215
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 4: I would actually probably say the opposite, Make as many

216
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 4: balls as you can. Okay, that's what I would do right,

217
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 4: We're all different.

218
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well was interesting because this guy who I was playing,

219
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: it was four to four in the first set, and

220
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: then he started on the that he went up five

221
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: for and the change of ends. He started coaching me.

222
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: He was like, with your fourhand, you're gonna want to

223
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: bend your wrist back more. And I was like, what,

224
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 1: we're on surve and five four. But it actually worked

225
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: and ruined me and then he ran away with the

226
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: rest of it was this guy, I'll tell you it

227
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: was Bernard.

228
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 4: He's very good in the wind.

229
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: To be fair, he would be yeah, he would just

230
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: steer the ball around the great field.

231
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 4: Doesn't miss much.

232
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 3: Any advice for us as a podcast, what should we

233
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 3: ask players?

234
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 4: Do you think questions that they're not often asked? And

235
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 4: obviously do some digging with them and find find things

236
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 4: that they're they're into, like yeah, and whatever their hobbies are,

237
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 4: probably going dig into that a little more.

238
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,439
Speaker 3: Is the craziest hobby is anyone into some weird.

239

00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:47,480

Speaker 3: Why not?

265
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: I feel like it's misleading and I realized a lot

266
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: of the information contained in it was incorrect.

267
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 3: Really did I send it to you?

268
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 5: No?

269
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: But I just know first knowing things.

270
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 2: The spreadsheet is correct the data that I need.

271
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you've never sounded more Asian in your life. Yeah.

272

00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 3: Who what are the reasons?

275
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: There's illness, there's rest, there's scheduling.

276
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 3: Conflicts and partties to go do.

277
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,160

Speaker 1: Oh wow, what do you think of his slapping career?

00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 3: Wasn't that crazy? That was a crazy time in alive.

291

00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: And then he used all his forehand practice to slap

299
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: Chris Rock in the face.

300
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 3: That would have been a really strong forehand at that

301
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 3: time in his life.

302
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: I know, Wow, who would you slap in the face

303
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: while they were on stage? Oh, I know who it is?

304
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: Who you had Dave Hughes in.

Speaker 3: such a young age to have that much guts.

420
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,080

439
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 1: points to win the title. I know, unreal, unreal And

440
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: it was like, I mean just in the lead up

441
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: because I know, uh, Canadian Dennis A. Shepov Olive was

442
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: defending champions uh, and he there was a clip with him.

443
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw this. He wanted to

444
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 1: kick someone out of the stands.

445
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't see this.

446
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: He's not pleased at all. Well, he's saying, you'll walk

447
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: off the court right now. I think it's someone in

448
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: the crowd that's been making noise during case serv I

449
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: don't know, he doesn't know who it is. Yeah, so

450
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 1: he just wanted someone kicked out one of these girls.

451
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 3: He wanted kick down.

452
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

453
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 1: I don't support that because I believe all women.

454
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 3: No, I believe all women at the tennis you were

455
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 3: screaming are drunk for sure.

456
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: Especially Dallas. They're boozy over there, they're just having a

457
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: good time. They're probably in the fancy seats, you know,

458
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: the VIP influencer seats. But he didn't know. He was

459
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 1: just like I think because it was right after he

460
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 1: lost this. He won the first set, he lost the

461
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 1: second set, and I think he started to be like,

462
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm losing control of Yeah.

463
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 3: Do you think he wanted a little bit more time,

464
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 3: buying time.

465
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, it buys time. And then it's just funny to

466
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: say kick them out and they're like who, and he's like, I.

467
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 3: Don't know, it's just over there.

468
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: Someway, someone in that general vicinity. Yeah, it's kind of

469
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: a power move, it is.

470
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would do that.

471
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, show someone out at a show.

Speaker 1: and he is bald. My yeah, he is as bald

632
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 1: as the day is long, and he just embraced it. Finally.

633
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: I think Curios, like I don't know. Did you look

634
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: it up?

635
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 3: Just look, I'm shocked. I'm stunned.

636
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: Well, what did you think with the hats all the time?

637
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 1: Isn't that a dead give away?

638
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 10: Well?

639
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 3: I just thought that was like a look and a

640
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 3: brand thing. He gets extra money for the hat, and

641
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 3: now now I see it. Well, Turkey, let me look

642
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 3: when this game and tournament and yeah, spreadsheet.

643
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: I hate the spreadsheet.

644
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm gonna have to talk about it every every pod. Now.

645
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: So that was Raphie on the ball ah from her

646
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: other I think this might just be footage from another podcast,

647
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: but sits a past telling. The story about the first

648
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: time he ever got drunk was with Roger Federer's encouragement.

649
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 3: Of course, how old was he.

650
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: I mean, he must have been twenty. He's playing it,

651
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: I believe in the Labor Cup and yeah, they were

652
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: just celebrating afterwards. And if Roger Federer told me to

653
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: do anything, I would.

654
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 3: I would do it.

655
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but drinking, yeah, what.

656
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 3: Like, why hasn't he been drunk before? Oh?

657
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,720
Speaker 1: That that's true, as a Greek man.

658
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 3: As a tennis play, a hot young tennis player, he

659
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 3: hasn't been drunk yet. I think those he's very serious.

660
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 1: Well, I think that's the way it is now. Like

661
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 1: young if you show a lot of promise as a

662
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: young player, you get like farmed out to a tennis

663
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: white like jail jail basically, yeah, a tennis community in

664
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: Florida or whatever, where you're just like you're just doing

665
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: drills all day. And you know, like if you read

666
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: Agassi's book, he had to like sneak away at a

667
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: party and stuff. And I think some of them are

668
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: just tennis machines and they just haven't had the experience

669
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 1: on the yeah, yeah, yeah.

670
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 3: And then Federer is like, have a little drink. That's

671
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 3: how it starts. Yeah, slippery slope.

672
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 10: I know.

673
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 1: And then he said, but within a few hours he

674
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: was dancing on the table.

675
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he was stripping shuts off, and Rafa and

676
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 3: Roger are just throwing dollar.

677
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:12,800
Speaker 1: Bills at him.

678
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 3: What a great if you did become an alcoholic, What

679
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 3: a great origin story.

680
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: Yeah you blame Roger.

681
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just have to blame girls in high school.

682
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: Well, who's holding back sits a pass his lovely hair

683
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: when he's barfing.

684
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 2: I'll do it.

685
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna change my name to Mike Slazenger. Slazenger.

686
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 3: And now our next segment, the one that everyone is dreading.

687
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 3: It's Mike Goldstein's anagrams.

688
00:35:52,239 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 8: Boo, Mike's anagrams, dude, Mike Xander Grahams, do it please?

689
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:09,879
Speaker 1: Don't? These are me taking players names and making anagrams

690
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: out of them. M Alex Demonar the name, I've rearranged

691
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: the letters. He's so of some context here.

692
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 3: I love it.

693
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 2: It's a bit of a caveat.

694
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: Yes, he was in the last three Rotterdam finals and

695
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: he won his most recent one. So he had lost

696
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: against Center in twenty twenty four, loss against Alcarez, and

697
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 1: then now he's beat Felix in the twenty twenty sixth

698
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: final of Rotterdam. So Alex Demonar's I'm relaxed now but

699
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 1: now is spelled naw.

700
00:36:54,440 --> 00:37:02,400

728
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,279

00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,359

Speaker 9: Yeah?

731
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,040

00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 10: fun and packed stadium and yeah so good.

733
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: What would your strategy be if you one the rock

734
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,240
Speaker 1: paper scissor serve or receive.

735
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 9: It's tough to say because I was surprised everyone was

736
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 9: kind of like receiving because I'm like, I would I

737
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:09,479
Speaker 9: think I would serve.

738
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you only get one. Yeah, I'll kick serve kick,

739
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:13,800
Speaker 1: serve out wide.

740
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 9: But then you go there probably you know it's only

741
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 9: one point. I don't know.

742
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 10: I saw everyone's the returning receiving, like, wow, I serve

743
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 10: classic mooch.

744
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 3: Well, Joanna always elected to serve true to the final.

745
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 9: Yeah she did.

746
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 3: Maybe that is the strategy.

747
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. Maybe have you been forced to play pickleball yet?

748
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: You you haven't?

749
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 10: No, I played a puddle pedal I try.

750
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 3: Okay, so that maybe after tennis cattle.

751
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 9: I don't know who knows. I mean, I like it.

752
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 9: It's fun. I don't know if you guys played it,

753
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 9: but it's kind of like you always play doubles. It's

754
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 9: fast with all the angles and scoring as tennis.

755
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so it's easy to kind.

756
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 1: Of fun, but you would dominating pickleball.

757
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 10: I just saw it last year in Indian Wells, Like

758
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 10: once we finished, there's like all the courts who are

759
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 10: covered in pick a ball.

760
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:11,799
Speaker 9: Course I didn't like it. I like what I see.

761
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 3: I don't know. It's someone coming in and bulldozing your home.

762
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've heard it. He said that pickleball is to

763
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: tennis what rollerblading is to skateboarding.

764
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 9: You don't have to you don't have to move.

765
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,799
Speaker 1: It's tennis for people with no athletic ability.

766
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 9: So that if you.

767
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,359
Speaker 3: Could play another sport, what would it be?

768
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,400
Speaker 10: Maybe some theme sport. I change you for a team sport.

769
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 10: Maybe I don't know, basketball or something like that.

770
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know. Who would you dunk on
