1 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,920 Hey guys, welcome to What's the Call the podcast where sports 2 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,120 meets side eye. We're here to breakdown the 3 00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:12,040 matches, the meltdowns and the moments that make us pause and 4 00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:14,480 say, what was that call? I'm Theo. 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:16,880 I'm Andrea. And we're glad you're here. 6 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,080 Whether you're sports obsessed or just here for the drama, 7 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,800 there's a seat for you courtside, so let's dive in. 8 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,320 Hi guys. Welcome back to another episode 9 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,479 of What's the Call? This week we've got a slightly 10 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,560 chaotic one. We're talking Carlos Alcaraz's 11 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,200 wrist injury and what that means heading into Roland Garros. 12 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,440 A very subtle, not subtle confirmation from Morgan Riddle 13 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:51,160 on her breakup with Taylor Fritz and somehow also a shrimp Taco 14 00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:56,600 situation in Madrid, which I feel like, sadly for you, you 15 00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:00,960 can relate to Andrea, yes? I can, I can. 16 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,000 Andrea's not feeling her rest today because she too ate a bad 17 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,320 shrimp. Yes, which is insane. 18 00:01:07,320 --> 00:01:08,080 Actually. That's. 19 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:13,000 Crazy my life just mirrors tennis so. 20 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:14,360 Exactly. Yeah. 21 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,640 OK. So yeah, this week we have a bit 22 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,320 of everything. And let's jump in. 23 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:25,040 Obviously, most of you will have heard by now that Carlos Alcaraz 24 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:29,280 has withdrawn from the rest of the clay season, including 25 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:37,960 Roland Gauss, due to a wrist injury, which is devastating for 26 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,880 us in particular, but for all of tennis, for you in particular. 27 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,400 Andrea, how did you feel when you saw the news? 28 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,280 So upset, yeah. I just think it makes the whole, 29 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,360 I mean, for me, obviously the French Open way less 30 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,680 interesting. Of course, I mean, obviously 31 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,400 that we had known that he has having issues, right? 32 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:05,640 Like he something happened during his match in Barcelona, 33 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,160 he withdrew from there. Then he was spotted in out in 34 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,440 Madrid with a wrist brace. He went and accepted his Lawyers 35 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,800 Sports Award last Monday with a wrist brace as well. 36 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,800 And then he withdrew from Madrid and now he's withdrawn from Rome 37 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:26,040 and Paris. But yeah, as I said, obviously 38 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,000 we saw it coming, knew there was something up. 39 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,080 But I, yeah, I was in, I was in Venice on a work trip on Friday 40 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:35,800 and I was walking through the town. 41 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,400 It's like, you know, along the Grand Canal. 42 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,880 I'm like looking at my phone and suddenly, like, the athletic 43 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,040 notification popped up and I just, like, said really loud. 44 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,920 I was just like, oh, fuck to. And my colleague was like, what? 45 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,920 And I was like, oh, Kohlzak, I was with the French Open. 46 00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:54,640 He was like, no, I was like, yeah, really sad. 47 00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:58,920 So that was my reaction. I was like, like, that really, 48 00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:03,120 really sucks. But equally, I think it's 49 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,600 probably the wise call to make. Right on. 50 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,920 Definitely for him and his team because yeah, injury is not a 51 00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:13,520 joke. Wrist injuries are so scary. 52 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:18,600 Wrist injuries are incredibly scary and tough to come back 53 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,280 from. We've seen it in two cases 54 00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:25,040 already. Actually in two pretty high 55 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,160 profile, let's say cases on the tennis tour. 56 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,920 So Dominic team cut his career short and retired in 2024 at 57 00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:35,760 just 31 years old and was never the same post wrist injury. 58 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,240 And then going back a little further, Juan Martine del Potro, 59 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,800 his career was like defined by it, right? 60 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,440 You remember that he sort of was really plagued by wrist injury 61 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,360 shortly after winning the US Open in 2009 and then 2010 62 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,400 season. He pretty much withdrew from the 63 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,760 entire season and never fully recovered. 64 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:01,320 Yeah, I remember Del Potro, I remember watching him beat Rafa. 65 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,960 I think he beat him 626262 in the semis of the US Open and 66 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,800 being like, holy shit, this is terrifying. 67 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,640 This guy is going to now be a real contender. 68 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,200 Yeah, for slams. And yeah. 69 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,720 And then his career was completely derailed by by a 70 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,320 wrist injury, which is why it's just, I think it's definitely 71 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,640 better. Of course. 72 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,640 I mean, Carlos is making the right decision. 73 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,240 Of course. Very prudent about it. 74 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,040 I'm sure he's in the best hands, of course, one would hope and 75 00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:37,480 getting all the expert advice out there and like, yeah, I 76 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,800 mean, devastating for this clay season. 77 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:47,920 But hopefully him taking this time off will mean that his 78 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,440 career can continue as normal and not following the same path 79 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:57,160 as the other two we just mentioned because that would be 80 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,320 a disaster. Yeah, definitely. 81 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,640 I saw a Spanish sports journalist, Jose Moron, post on 82 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,600 Twitter that the rumor is that Carlos has a case of 83 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,960 tenosynovitis. OK. 84 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,680 This is not even a joke and it's not funny because his is really 85 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,720 serious. But that is what I had last year 86 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,280 and it's derailed. It's derailed my tennis career. 87 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,480 I cannot get through an hour on the court anymore. 88 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,800 You can't, no. It's awful. 89 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,200 It's really bad. You remember when I was drawing 90 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,120 with my wrist, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. 91 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,600 And I recently started playing again and it's fine, but you can 92 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,160 just feel it. And I don't know, Obviously he's 93 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,760 taking his injury a lot more seriously than I was, but it was 94 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,960 horrible, horrible. So I can relate his. 95 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,160 Point is that it's not that serious of. 96 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:55,240 I'm sure if you take it seriously as he is and should 97 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,640 be, he's going to be fine. And I think it's just something 98 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,480 that feels like it's recurring and can come back. 99 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,240 Like I think if you have a tendency it can flare up. 100 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,960 But I'm sure obviously he's managing it in all the right 101 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,960 ways. I, you know, went to physio for 102 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,960 like 3 months and that was it. But he'll be tending to it 103 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,960 daily, hourly probably at this point right? 104 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,160 So. He also wrote that Rafa had the 105 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,760 same injury in 2014 and he was sidelined for two weeks. 106 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,720 OK, there we go. Sweet. 107 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,800 There we go. All is well. 108 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:34,280 So yeah, ultimately, Carlos, I can relate and wishing you a 109 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,720 very speedy recovery. I have no doubt that he will be 110 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,240 back. But the question I guess is will 111 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:49,080 he be back in time for the grass or would it be more responsible 112 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:56,560 of him to skip the grass? I just grass is very like injury 113 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,960 prone surface. Do you know what I mean? 114 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,880 And there's no time in between the French Open and Wimbledon 115 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,040 and the grass season. I know. 116 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:11,160 So yes, he was pretty. He clearly doesn't even know. 117 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,760 No, I don't think you can tell. I think it's to be like a he'll 118 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,000 see in the moment. I mean from what you just said, 119 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:23,720 if it is Tino Sinoitis like he should be mine. 120 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,400 Yeah, hopefully he will be back for Wimbledon. 121 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,040 It would just. Yeah, it would be devastating. 122 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,640 If he missed Queens and Wimbledon was 2 slams but then 123 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,560 equally long run right? If it means it's better for him 124 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,600 long run, then we might have to take the L here. 125 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,160 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And apparently he's chosen A 126 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,120 conservative treatment for this. That's good. 127 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:59,160 And so I guess time will tell. OK, So should we talk about what 128 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,480 this means for tennis over the next couple of weeks or or 129 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,800 month? Because this obviously Carlos 130 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:10,840 pulling out has a massive ripple effect and it affects the 131 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,440 rivalries, the slam narratives and sort of the balance at the 132 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,040 top of the game, which we already know. 133 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:20,080 It's kind of at the moment it's a two man, 2 horse race rather. 134 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,600 So yeah, let's talk about that's the second man in the rivalry, 135 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,000 Yannick. He obviously, you know, they're 136 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,160 brothers in arms. They love each other. 137 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,679 The press were pressing him kind of being like, you know, to how 138 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,799 does this feel? And he was just like, I loved 139 00:08:35,799 --> 00:08:37,480 his reaction. He was like, tennis needs 140 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,760 Carlos. Tennis is better when he is 141 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,039 around. So obviously, yeah, it's super 142 00:08:42,039 --> 00:08:44,600 heartwarming to see. But what do you think it means 143 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,760 for Yannick Sinner? And what does it do to him? 144 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,600 I think it sucks for him. Too. 145 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,480 I mean, it sucks. It really sucks. 146 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,240 I don't get the sense that he's now thinking, oh, great, this 147 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,000 makes it easier for me to win the French Open. 148 00:08:58,240 --> 00:08:59,920 No, I mean it is much easier now. 149 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,280 But it puts more pressure on him. 150 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,680 But I do think if there's anyone who can deal with the pressure, 151 00:09:03,680 --> 00:09:06,240 it's him. So he's probably going to take 152 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,920 it and run. I think this is good news for 153 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,840 Novak Djokovic. Not that I think he's relishing 154 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:18,160 in this either, but I think this is a good chance for him to win. 155 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,680 Oh, I think it's his biggest shot at 25. 156 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,720 Yeah, I think also I mean, yeah, let's let's talk about what it 157 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,320 means for the rest of the draw as well. 158 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,120 I think his position in the drawer is obviously going to be 159 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,200 everything because I think if he is, well, he can be IANIC in the 160 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,440 semis in Australia. Actually. 161 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,360 He doesn't necessarily need to meet him in the final in order 162 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,200 to get there. Like it might even be better if 163 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,880 he meets him in the semi, right? It's less less of a an event 164 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,880 like now that we're talking about, it could be actually 165 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,600 really interesting. And then also see who else 166 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,280 might, you know, step up to the plate because there are some 167 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,040 people who should certain people who should on the ATP side take 168 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,840 advantage of this, But who knows? 169 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,960 Sasha Zverev Unlikely. Unlikely him. 170 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,760 I just don't back him. I don't back him to to make big 171 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,120 moves. Sadly. 172 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,560 I don't know who else like the Moussetti. 173 00:10:19,560 --> 00:10:21,160 I would love to see him make a run. 174 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,200 I know I always say that you are the feast. 175 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,160 Are the feast, of course, but he's also killing it. 176 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,320 I saw him, I was in Barcelona last weekend. 177 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,320 I saw two of his matches. Oh, cool. 178 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,840 He's just so good. He's amazing and he won the 179 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,600 tournament. He's still in Madrid. 180 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,320 He's someone who could really do well at the French and probably 181 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,280 will do well, so I'm rooting for him. 182 00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:51,040 Yeah, OK, Fees Mousetti, I'm rooting for and he's a bit, he's 183 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,440 been a bit injury plagued as well. 184 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,200 Everyone's injury plagued. We keep saying this, but that is 185 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,760 a whole other conversation. It is because there's too many 186 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,960 injuries both on the men's and the women's side anyways. 187 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,560 But OK, so who do we have? Musetti fees? 188 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,800 I mean, Medvedev, let's go. I want him to have a run. 189 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,400 Unlikely as well. Ben Shelton. 190 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,920 He won a Munich. Could be yes. 191 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,880 Ben Shelton Vashro, too. Oh yeah, he could for sure. 192 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,800 He could definitely make a run. Yeah. 193 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,760 I mean, All in all, it's it's definitely not anyone's game. 194 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,400 But to make a run, it's anyone's game. 195 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,800 I feel like. I still feel like Yannick will 196 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:39,640 probably take it, but I'm curious to see your your how 197 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,080 your Novak prediction comes out. I mean, I don't disagree for 198 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,160 sure. But ultimately, do you know what 199 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:46,880 this means for you as well, Andrea? 200 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,640 That you're Roland Gauss predictions out the window like 201 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,840 a month before it even started. I know. 202 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,000 Which is sad, obviously. So now you need to change your 203 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,320 prediction. It has to be Novak. 204 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,120 It has to be Novak. OK, I'm. 205 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,280 Going to go with Novak because obviously you pick Sinner. 206 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,200 So yeah, I'll. Get a Novak. 207 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,560 Statistically he's a good one to back right? 208 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,760 So when historically? Rather, and he's playing way 209 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:14,000 fewer tournaments, he's able to show up and really give it his 210 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,560 all. Totally I. 211 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:21,080 Think he has a good shot? OK, well everyone stay tuned. 212 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,640 Exciting month coming up for sure. 213 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,560 OK, so I thought this could be a fun little segment. 214 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:37,360 What is Carlos going to get up to off court during his time 215 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,320 away from the sport? Apart from rehab, obviously, 216 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,440 because that is #1. Well, he gets to be home. 217 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,480 That's definitely where he's going to be hanging out. 218 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,040 He's going to be more. He's such a homebody. 219 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,080 He loves his couch with his TV and his whole trophy setup. 220 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,360 Do you see that? That picture kills me. 221 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,680 I can't. I feel like yeah, he'll be at 222 00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:05,920 home, home base, Morcia, rehabbing, resetting. 223 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,280 Cool. They'll for sure be in Ibiza. 224 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:14,880 Trip thrown in, although Carlos, if I were you, I'd try and keep 225 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,880 it super low key because he's going you're going to get 226 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,640 ripped. I back it but you're going to 227 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,040 get ripped for sure. But I think it could be good for 228 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,480 him. Too 100% I back it. 229 00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:27,200 I think both of us back it you. Should go to the opening 230 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,000 parties. Yeah, there we go. 231 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:34,320 I feel like he's no stranger to the Formula One circuit, too. 232 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,160 You know, it's coming back. I mean, actually this weekend 233 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:41,560 it'll be in Miami, so I'd even make a trip that we know he 234 00:13:41,560 --> 00:13:44,360 loves Miami. I don't think he's. 235 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,640 Going to be Miami. Unlikely, but he might be at 236 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,040 some of the European races. I'd love to see him at the 237 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,680 Monaco GP. Oh yeah, for sure. 238 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,960 That would be fun. I feel like, yeah, that's not 239 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,960 one that he that's like out of the realm of possibility for him 240 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,520 to attend. I also have this theory that 241 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,120 he's going to be at the Met Gala, so maybe he'll go Miami to 242 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,520 Met Gala. He might be at the Met Gala next 243 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,680 Monday. He loves a red carpet. 244 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,360 He was like flexing the tux last week at this Laura Sports Awards 245 00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:18,560 with the wrist brace. Yeah, wrist brace is a vibe. 246 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:23,480 You can make it an accessory. I did. 247 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,240 It gives him more aura. It gives him. 248 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,240 Aura, aura, so he would say. That is so funny. 249 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,680 He might be at the Met Gala. I feel like Yannick Sinner is 250 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:39,080 more Anna Wintour's poster child at the moment. 251 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,800 Definitely right. Carlos is not her type. 252 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,920 It's the mullet she's not going to prove. 253 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,760 No, I know. OK, well, well, maybe she can 254 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,360 like, make it a project. I don't know. 255 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,480 I would love to see him there, honestly. 256 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,280 I think we will. But yeah, the tennis doors gets 257 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,360 in the way of the Met Gala appearances. 258 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,680 So I feel like if he's out one year, he should go. 259 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,640 There's no way. If he like showed an interest, 260 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,960 they wouldn't have him be top of the list. 261 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,240 Absolutely. I also I'm curious, do you think 262 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:17,200 when players are out they like tune into the sport or it's too 263 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,760 difficult? Do they they completely switch 264 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:28,040 off or do you think they follow? If it were me, I think I would 265 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:29,520 switch off. You would. 266 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,040 But I think it depends on the player. 267 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,080 And if it were me, I would be watching. 268 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,320 Yeah, you see. Yeah, which is so funny. 269 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,400 I would be like out of sight, out of mind. 270 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,000 Like I I would find it triggering to watch. 271 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,080 I get that it that would be the main reason, but it's actually 272 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,000 would also be quite healthy to do to just, you know, switch off 273 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,040 like there's nothing you could do, you think? 274 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,760 Yeah, he's definitely staying tuned 100%. 275 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:02,040 I think Carlos was having some major FOMO during the Bernabeu 276 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,600 practice session. Did you see that Nadal, Sinner, 277 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,600 Ego Shiontek and Jude Bellingham? 278 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:15,520 It was like all his faves in the Bernabeu in Real's Madrid 279 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,360 stadium. It's like Carlos's worst 280 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,920 nightmare and he wasn't there, or its biggest dream but it's 281 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,480 his worst nightmare because he missed it. 282 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,400 Yeah, he's the biggest Real Madrid fan. 283 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,280 He loves Yannick Sinner, he loves Rafael Nadal. 284 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,120 Everyone's in one place except him. 285 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:31,880 That must have been tough to see. 286 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,000 He's definitely having some FOMO, but that was I. 287 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,880 Yeah, just sidebar. I loved seeing that, like, 288 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,160 crossover again. It's great. 289 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,160 Yeah. And shout out to Philly Lopez 290 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,120 and Garbini Muguruza, Madrid tournament directors. 291 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,720 I feel like they get a lot of shit for the stuff around the 292 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,440 tournament, but this was a move I feel. 293 00:16:54,040 --> 00:17:00,640 Also honourable mention to Rafa Nadal junior and how he hits the 294 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,200 ball at only three years old. Wild, insane. 295 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,839 No, wild, wild. So yeah, Carlos, watch out. 296 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,079 That's one, one Rafa coming for you. 297 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,440 So careful. Stay tuned because there is 298 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,560 another which we will be talking about. 299 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,359 Yeah, I mean, Rafa's uncle was a Real Madrid player too. 300 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,560 There you go, It runs in the family. 301 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,119 Like I just, I was so cute. I know and I love that he's Rafa 302 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,520 Junior. I never and like Sinner was like 303 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,240 seen like turning around watching him. 304 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,760 I thought it was really cute as well. 305 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,440 But yeah, I just love, I love these moments. 306 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:36,680 I don't know, I can't explain it. 307 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,280 I'm like, if it doesn't make you feel something, you're dead 308 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,360 inside. So yeah. 309 00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:46,000 With that, we will be watching out for Carlos's movements over 310 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,680 the next month or so and see where he pops up. 311 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,400 You know, our predictions might be completely off, but I still I 312 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,680 think that should be on his itinerary, all those things. 313 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaking of younger Rafa's, we should check in on the actual 314 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,760 tournament in Madrid that is going on this week. 315 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,600 We are about halfway through. It's always a bit confusing some 316 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,400 sort of somewhere at the time of recording it is Monday, it is 317 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,520 like fourth round quarterfinals somewhere there. 318 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,440 It's a two week Masters even which is very confusing. 319 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:34,320 So OK, let's start with the men and with one Rafael Hodar. 320 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:40,080 And I know that we're really sad about Carlos being out of the 321 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,440 play swing, but Spanish tennis is in good hands. 322 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,600 Like between Spanish and Italian tennis, there's not much space 323 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,920 left. So I'm going to pass it to you, 324 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:57,240 the Spaniard, to assess. Yeah, it was. 325 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:03,880 I also saw him play in Barcelona last week and he's just so 326 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,360 impressive. He's 19 years old. 327 00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:09,440 So impressive. And he's tall, actually, like 328 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,040 very tall. I think he's 191. 329 00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:17,120 Wow, OK. And he seems much older, just 330 00:19:17,120 --> 00:19:19,600 like his temperament. He seems like a pretty mature 331 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,320 guy. He hasn't even been on tour for 332 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,600 a year. He's a wild card in Madrid. 333 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:29,440 And now he's already into the fourth round and he beats Drop 334 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,920 Fonseca last night and three sets it looked like a. 335 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,240 Crazy match. No, I don't know, I just saw 336 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:40,160 Fonseca smashed his racket multiple times on the floor. 337 00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:44,120 And he's a pretty even tempered guy and it's the first time he's 338 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,920 smashed his racket. Well, I think he's. 339 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:52,640 Like Jesus, like help, but someone who is right, especially 340 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:53,800 yeah, because. They're both 19. 341 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,000 They're both 19. Yeah, feel like they. 342 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,280 Both well, now Hodar has a lot of hype around him, but Fonseca, 343 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,720 you know, I feel like there's so much hype around him and I feel 344 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,200 like it's getting to him. That's the sense, I guess. 345 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,360 It's like it's really tough when they get. 346 00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:14,480 So much hyped. They need to stay really like 347 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,720 feet on the ground and not let it get to them because the 348 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,080 pressure is crazy. But I also saw like a a crazy 349 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:26,240 start. Before his first round, Hodar 350 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,600 had played his first 25 professional matches. 351 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,400 So professional matches being on the ATV tour, sorry. 352 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:39,360 And he won 17 of them, which is the highest number within the 353 00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:42,600 1st 25 matches. And behind him is Fonseca at 15 354 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,080 and Alcaraz at fourteen wins in their first 25 matches. 355 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,960 So if that starts anything to go by kind of crazy. 356 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,400 It's yeah, it's crazy. It was crazy to hear because to 357 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,520 hear Obama's Mamas Rafa. I know. 358 00:20:58,520 --> 00:20:59,640 Right. It's like. 359 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:01,960 Oh my gosh, I don't know. I felt wrong. 360 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,240 History you're repeating. Itself. 361 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,760 Oh no, I hope I'm like. No, there's we need to find a 362 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:06,840 new. He needs to change his name. 363 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:08,360 I. See what you mean? 364 00:21:08,360 --> 00:21:11,040 I mean, yeah, Carlos is shaking his boots. 365 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:12,720 He's got 2. Rafa's coming for him. 366 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,200 He's got. Rafa Hodar and then a three-year 367 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,240 old. Yeah, but he seems actually, I 368 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,840 feel like the two Rafa's just temperamentally are very similar 369 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,160 to. Oh, they are. 370 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,800 They're like very reserved and even keeled. 371 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,280 He's amazing and he's like very brave and really goes for it and 372 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,160 has an amazing return. It's just, yeah, it's so cool to 373 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,280 see another Spaniard. I mean it's. 374 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,800 You're so lucky having no luck. I'm having no luck, honestly. 375 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,120 None. Yeah. 376 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,840 OK, so Hodar has been doing well. 377 00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:52,360 Who else is still? I mean, there's still like a the 378 00:21:52,360 --> 00:21:56,160 draw's pretty stacked still. Like in terms of like big names, 379 00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:00,000 we have Musetti still in Feast still in which you mentioned 380 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:06,040 Medvedev is still in Crazies, where is still in Steph is still 381 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:12,160 in Let's Go. It's very next Gen. vibes. 382 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,840 We like to see it. Yeah, I was kind of worried 383 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:19,240 about this tournament. Felt bad for Felly because there 384 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,360 were a lot of. Withdrawals I. 385 00:22:22,360 --> 00:22:24,000 Feel like that's. Always the case in Madrid, 386 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,400 though. Madrid's such a weird one 387 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,600 because people skip it because they're like, oh, we'd rather 388 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,320 play Rome. The conditions are more similar 389 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,560 to rolling gals. It's closer to rolling gals. 390 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,360 So there's always like those last minute withdrawals. 391 00:22:36,360 --> 00:22:41,440 But I think it's it's it's actually turned into great, 392 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,480 great one this year. I feel like no, I'm, I'm, I'm. 393 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,840 Actually excited for it. I wasn't really that excited. 394 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,280 And I'm like, I'm curious to see, but it's pretty open. 395 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,040 I mean, Yannick and Rafael Hodar are on the same side of the 396 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:55,840 drop. They're going to meet. 397 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,520 In the quarters, I mean, by the time this comes out, we'll 398 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:02,040 probably know. But yeah, I know. 399 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,360 It's so exciting, honestly. So yeah, let's see, next week we 400 00:23:06,360 --> 00:23:10,160 will know who comes out on top. OK? 401 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:16,520 WTA is also, like big names left still in the drawer, Yeah. 402 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,400 Tabalenka is still. In Rebecca is still in, Coco is 403 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,920 still in, Naomi Osaka is still in. 404 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,760 She actually plays Ilenka this afternoon, so that'll be 405 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,080 interesting. And she also has made yet 406 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:34,280 another fashion statement. How did you see her Poochie 407 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,440 headscarf? I did not, but I'm looking at it 408 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,760 now and. Well, OK, you know, I like 409 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,920 Poochie. I think it's fun. 410 00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:49,280 It's supposed to be like European, a nod to European 411 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:50,920 summer. But I don't know if it has a 412 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,240 place for if there's a place for it on the tennis court, I guess. 413 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,240 She gets people talking every time. 414 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,480 Yeah, it looks like she's going to a rave. 415 00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:01,720 Is that getting ready for your summer? 416 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,600 Is that Is that what that is? So clean this. 417 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,000 Oh, no way. How funny. 418 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:13,000 Yeah, OK. Well, I also like, I quite like 419 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,040 the orange it looks. I do too like clay as well. 420 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,600 Yeah, but yeah, no. Interesting and. 421 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:23,720 Sponsored by Poochie No. Vintage shops like source it and 422 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,400 then this designer she works with, like worked it into her 423 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:32,800 Madrid outfit. Fine, You know, the haters don't 424 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,880 deter her. I've actually. 425 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,480 Wants to get yeah comments, yeah. 426 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,560 You know. Yeah, because inevitably that 427 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,840 will be the response she gets whenever she does these. 428 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,680 They're not but. She they're just like a bit 429 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,440 provocative and she knows she's poking the bear because people 430 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,600 have their thoughts on it. Like, I mean, whether they're 431 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,880 positive or negative. I actually don't, I don't mind 432 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,600 this one. I think it's a little bit 433 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,120 strange, better than the. Jellyfish, I think. 434 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:07,680 Yes, to me, I love my grandmother to death, but she 435 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,040 would always wear a headscarf when she would take her dogs for 436 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,120 a walk, you know, Queen Elizabeth style. 437 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,480 That's sort of reminding me of, right. 438 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,440 But anyway, so yeah, she's still in the draw. 439 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,040 All that to say, there are still a lot of big names on the 440 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,280 women's side as well. We probably both think Savolinka 441 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,320 is going to take it. But I do think Rebecca now she's 442 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,040 like a silent killer. As usual, I want Rebecca. 443 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:32,800 Now to take it, you know to keep. 444 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,880 Things more, yeah, to keep things more. 445 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,480 More balanced, more competitive for sure. 446 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,560 Do you know I want to take it? I don't think she will Coco. 447 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,920 OK, yes, we want Coco to take it. 448 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,400 Definitely unlikely. Do you know why? 449 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,640 Now here are we going to come to the shrimp Taco debacle? 450 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,280 Who is serving shrimp tacos at Player Dining? 451 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:58,280 Because that is just asking for something to go wrong. 452 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,440 There's been a whole thing around the shrimp tacos in 453 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:07,160 Madrid in player dining that they have poisoned multiple 454 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,120 players or food poisoned, rather. 455 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:13,400 Multiple players. Not poisoned, not poisoned. 456 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:18,160 Sorry, but yeah. So Ego Shreyon Tech pulled out 457 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,480 due to food poisoning. Coco was vomiting on court 458 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:27,800 during her match. She came through it, but she was 459 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,320 vomiting. Terence Atman, Have you seen 460 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,920 this video? He is. 461 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:39,840 He's like. Writhing in pain on the on the 462 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,320 ground cramping. Like screaming crazy. 463 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,360 I like, why did he go on court? Why did he play? 464 00:26:48,360 --> 00:26:51,280 I guess, yeah, I. Don't, I don't know honestly. 465 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,000 Like I mean it's giving. Kabali. 466 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,200 It's giving Kabali. Australia. 467 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,280 I mean, you've just experienced bad shrimp yesterday as well, so 468 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,840 you know, it's not fun. But like imagine I just, I just 469 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:07,760 don't understand. Like This is why, you know, I 470 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,680 remember Steph was saying like he eats chicken and rice. 471 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,800 Keep it simple. Don't go for the shrimp tacos 472 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,600 when you're in competition. What are you doing? 473 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,760 But also don't serve them. Yeah, I feel like this happens. 474 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,080 You. Know pretty often Acapulco. 475 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:26,880 They're always. Puking, but you know. 476 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,400 Player dining. Just there's some sort of player 477 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,240 dining. Does them dirty. 478 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,520 They need better. Food Standards they do. 479 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,560 Definitely, or players should just stick with what they know 480 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:42,120 and keep it simple. Beige, beige, beige safe and 481 00:27:42,120 --> 00:27:46,720 beige no shrimp. So yeah, let's see who comes 482 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,720 through it. I mean I hope they've like 483 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,560 gotten rid of the shrimp tacos by now from the buffet. 484 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,080 Hopefully it's just a 20. 4 hour thing, yeah. 485 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,560 Exactly. I mean, listen, I I love a 486 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,400 shrimp Taco, but if they're going to make you sick, no 487 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,480 thanks anyway. Yeah. 488 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:09,000 So this time next week, we're going to know who who made it 489 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,080 through without getting food poisoning. 490 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:22,040 OK, So we just need to revisit this story surrounding the sport 491 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:27,520 as well because if I may say so myself, I think we called it 492 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:34,400 Taylor Fritz and Morgan Riddle. Breakup has been confirmed, yes. 493 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:39,720 Yes, she confirmed it in a subtle, not so subtle Instagram 494 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:44,400 post which contained. Pictures of moving. 495 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:51,400 Boxes she's clearly moved to New York start this new era of hers. 496 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:57,400 And then she also posted a selfie wearing a shirt that says 497 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,600 world's best ex-girlfriend. Honestly, kind of like that 498 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:02,840 isn't a. Confirmation. 499 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,960 I don't know what is kind of like. 500 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,360 Respect. I don't know. 501 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,240 Yeah, and, and Taylor Fritz liked the post. 502 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,120 He liked the. Post I think he sends on liked 503 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,600 it because I think people were like what the hell I saw that 504 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,280 earlier again I didn't check myself I just saw someone say 505 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:22,120 that Taylor unlike it rather I honestly I think that that they 506 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:27,280 just the relationship ran its course and they can be friends 507 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,920 like I don't think she's like posting that to bait him I think 508 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,400 she probably like they probably like agreed on it I don't know 509 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,040 yeah I. Think it seems like they're on 510 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,120 good terms. Yeah, that's like. 511 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:44,160 Not every breakup needs to be this massive, like, scandalous, 512 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:49,440 like who did what thing, you know, Yeah. 513 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,360 I I do feel like she is kind of feeding into the speculation. 514 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,520 Yeah, you're right. No, you're right, you're right. 515 00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:00,160 But also like, so if I were her, it's her life, but if I were 516 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,680 her, like whatever happened between them, it's every breakup 517 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,000 is tough. But she's built her career 518 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,880 around what he does. And I will say she's she's done 519 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,160 a really good job of it. Like she has, you know, whatever 520 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:20,360 your thoughts are on influencing and like how she started, she 521 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,200 has achieved a lot. She has like over half a million 522 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,240 followers on Instagram, goes viral all the time. 523 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,440 She did sort of bring a whole new demographic to the sport. 524 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,240 I feel like, alongside some other Wags as well. 525 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,400 But she I think was the sort of OG and like, good for her. 526 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,840 Not many girls would have done that. 527 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:43,040 But like, so for her, it's kind of a bit of like an existential 528 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,480 crisis she's in now because she needs to pivot a little bit. 529 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,520 I mean, she can still stay in tennis, but she needs to pivot. 530 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,040 And she has, it seems. Yeah, It seems like she's trying 531 00:30:53,040 --> 00:31:00,960 to navigate how to, you know, pivot into a new role which is 532 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,880 not, you know, she's not a WAG anymore. 533 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,480 And so it's different. But clearly she still wants to 534 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,960 be involved and wants to be part of the tennis world and the 535 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,920 conversation and so I don't know I. 536 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:15,560 Mean. And he's supportive. 537 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,600 And sports in general, yeah, he's supportive. 538 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,800 Yeah, I think that they're just like, he seems like a kind of 539 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,520 guy. He's not going to be like 540 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,320 bitter, you know, he's just gaming. 541 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,800 He cares about gaming. Yes. 542 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,800 So no, but I get curious to see what's next for her anyways. 543 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:37,360 But yeah, I mean, what can I say? 544 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,320 We hold it. That is the name. 545 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,920 Of our podcast, We're making calls and they're hitting hard. 546 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,000 Let me tell you, great call. Great call, Great call. 547 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,200 And with that, I think we should make a call for this week. 548 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:53,960 What do you think? Question for today is in today's 549 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:58,280 tennis, is staying healthy more important than being the best 550 00:31:58,280 --> 00:31:59,800 player? I think. 551 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,800 Staying healthy, obviously, And I think it's kind of ironic 552 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,360 because these are athletes who take such amazing care of 553 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,840 themselves, who are so healthy and yet there are so many 554 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,400 injuries. And I think it just shows that 555 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:21,240 the tour is too long and the scheduling is insane and it's 556 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,760 not sustainable. It's bad for tennis. 557 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,800 It's like, you know, they're shoot shooting themselves in the 558 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,880 foot because now they're losing out on, you know, one of the 559 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,600 biggest names for one of the in one of the biggest tournaments. 560 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,000 So yeah, it's 100%. It is sad. 561 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:41,240 And yeah, I mean, ultimately, I think final call, yes, being 562 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,840 healthy is more important than being the best player because 563 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,960 without health, you will not be the best player. 564 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:52,400 Yeah, with that, let's call it wrap it. 565 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:57,560 We'll see everyone next week.
