We are the tennis podcast that 3 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,160 puts the dad in Marcos Baghdadis. 4 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,000 I'm your host, Paul Moncolm, and today I am your sugar daddy 5 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,440 because I'm going to spoil you rotten with another show in less 6 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,160 than a week.

This is a special episode of The 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,000 Ball Boys where we are paying tribute to all the dads of 9 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,040 tennis. Because who doesn't love a good 10 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,040 daddy? And it's only fair because last 11 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,560 month we paid homage to all the baby Mamas on tour with the real 12 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,440 mother of a show. And we just can't overlook the 13 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,120 men. Moms get all this credit for 14 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,520 coming back after maternity leave and getting back into 15 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,680 winning form, but what about the dads? 16 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,760 Being a dad and a tennis player takes a lot of balance and 17 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,480 skill. I mean, some of these guys are 18 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,880 off the tour for upwards of two weeks when they have a kid and 19 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,920 they still managed to come back into fighting shape and come 20 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,720 back stronger than ever. So today we are celebrating 21 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,360 dads, daddies and everything in between. 22 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,680 We've got some games like Who's your daddy? 23 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,560 We're going to dissect who has the best dad jeans out there. 24 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,280 And we're going to finish with Father Figures where we're going 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,280 to rank the top daddies with a special edition of the Bay 26 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,560 Teepee.

And guys, this is a very 49 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,600 important distinction. Dad, not daddy. 50 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:25,720 We'll be talking about that today. 51 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,920 Yeah, Yeah.

I said, like a gold belly gift 56 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,440 box. Get some, you know, food up to 57 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,040 New Hampshire that you can't get up there. 58 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,120 Yeah, wasn't quite sure Father's Day was this weekend until we 59 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,320 decided to record the podcast. I came out of nowhere. 60 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,640 I thought we had another week, which, you know, it's it's very 61 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,560 sort of indicative of, of, you know, Father's Day. 62 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,600 I feel like it's an afterthought compared to Mother's Day. 63 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,360 You know, it's like, oh, Mom, get. 64 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,440 All the grail or whatever, yeah. Yeah, yeah. 65 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,320 It's like, you know, here's some socks. 66 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,440 But Speaking of being a parent, you have a book coming out, 67 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,520 right? So there's this book party 68 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,240 coming up on Tuesday at Skylight Books over here in Los Feliz. 69 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,800 I'm staying in Los Feliz while my roof is being repaired from 70 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,880 prolapsing. I can't freaking wait. 71 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,200 I am such a fan of your writing. Tell us real quick about this 72 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,080 book. It's called. 73 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,480 What's it called? Called Ecstasy and Justin's on 74 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,760 for Father's Day. It is a book about a woman who's 75 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,960 an asshole husband has just died and now she's going to contend 76 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,880 with her not so great son. They are in Greece where he is 77 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,280 opening a hotel that his father had started building before his 78 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,720 death. And his mom starts partying with 79 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,320 some women down on the beach and her son does not say kindly to 80 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,040 it because women, especially women of a certain age are not 81 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,120 allowed to enjoy themselves and things get really ugly. 82 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,400 So it's sort of a dismantle the patriarchy, but. 83 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:02,120 Nice. Perfect. 84 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,480 Here you go, Dad. Read that. 85 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,920 I love that. It's a cool, cool title. 86 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,320 Ecstasy. I'm glad that you changed it 87 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,480 from, I think the original title was Molly. 88 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,280 So this is a, you know, a nice change. 89 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,800 And yeah. So anyone who's out there, feel 90 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,760 free to come on by Tuesday night at Skylight Books. 91 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,079 And those feelers love that bookstore. 92 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,640 It's going to be a fun old time. And then there's like, drinks 93 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,160 and dancing afterwards. So yeah, that's right. 94 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,080 A good old time that's we bust out the lolly. 95 00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:32,320 Yeah, exactly. All right, well, let's dive into 96 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,600 the dads, shall we? So before we start dissecting 97 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,800 the dads and talking about our favorites, we're going to start 98 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,080 with a game called Who's Your Daddy? 99 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:47,160 And basically Ivy, I've got 3 dads just waiting for you to 100 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,960 name them and I've got 5 clues to get you to that name. 101 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,280 The, the goal is to figure out who the dad is and as few clues 102 00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:57,560 as possible. We played this with the moms. 103 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,640 The, the, the clues were way too easy. 104 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,440 I was, I was wrong. I underestimated you. 105 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,960 So I think these are a little a little more challenging so. 106 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,000 I'm better on moms than dads, so I'm better at the moms and the 107 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,320 dads. So this would be. 108 00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:15,480 Hard dads get the shaft if if you know what I mean. 109 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,640 OK. And everyone feel free to play 110 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,320 along with us at home. So we're going to go one by one 111 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,440 through the clues. So Are you ready to play? 112 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,800 Who's your daddy? I am. 113 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:33,960 First one. OK, this first dad at 32 was the 114 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,080 oldest player to break into the top 10 for the first time. 115 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:44,480 And you name that, Dad. I should know that I don't know. 116 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,120 Nothing. OK, Yeah. 117 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,120 Look, I'm not. I'm no hurry to be like she's 118 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,880 Danish and she won a Grand Slam. These are going to be harder. 119 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,400 Come on. Girl want 23 grand slams and has 120 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:58,960 a dad. Yeah, exactly. 121 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:04,720 Sister of Venus.

That I that I don't know. 125 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,640 No, I don't. Know All right, all right, good. 126 00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:21,720 I'm glad.

He was 32 when he broke into the 131 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,000 top 10. I didn't know that. 132 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,200 I thought he, oh, I thought he had fallen out and then come 133 00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,400 out. I guess you're I, I'm obsessed 134 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,520 with his marriage. They just seem so normal. 135 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,800 I know you would think this is. Crazy Playboy. 136 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,680 I completely agree.

This charmer is a reserve member 150 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,720 of a professional chess league. Daniel Levito. 151 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,480 No, but you're you're. That has to be. 152 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,480 That has to be right. You're in the, you're you're. 153 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,600 You're definitely in the. I just know he is, yeah. 154 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,600 He might be, he may be. This is true. 155 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:48,920 He may be. There might be a lot of them. 156 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,480 Yeah, he's also. Dead. 157 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,560 Yeah, hell, he is. He sure is. 158 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:59,320 The next one is he reached a career high of #17 that's his 159 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,880 career high. That's not a good clue. 160 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:08,360 OK, so it's a Russian who hit #17 and he has a kid. 161 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,600 No. Well, so the Russian clue, 162 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,080 what's coming up next? He used to play for Russia, but 163 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,480 not anymore. That's the fourth clue. 164 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:26,920 Oh God, I don't know. He had a really emotional, fun 165 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:31,120 run at the French Open just two weeks ago, made it to the 166 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,640 quarters. Oh my God, my brain isn't 167 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:36,880 working. I haven't stopped it for names. 168 00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:38,120 Let's see. Makes the queer. 169 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,280 Who is it? Just tell me. 170 00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:43,760 It is Sasha Bublik.

I thought he always started I. 173 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,000 Didn't either. Yeah, yeah, no saying yeah, he's 174 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,640 exact same as Rebecca. He didn't get the support that 175 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,960 he wanted from Russia, so he went to Kazakhstan. 176 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,120 And yeah, he's like a chess player. 177 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,720 And he's just like, I, I know that there are potentially 178 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,480 problematic politics with him, but honestly, with everyone in 179 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,440 the ATP, there's problematic politics. 180 00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:10,760 But he's got so many. Like he's such a charmer. 181 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,920 He's such a quirky dude. And I loved him at the French. 182 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,360 Open. He's so weird. 183 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,400 Yeah, I fucking love a weirdo. OK, last dad of Who's your 184 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,680 daddy?

Two of the big four have 4 kids. 238 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,880 That's Murray and Federer. I had no idea that Murray had 239 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,960 that many kids until you read the run of the show. 240 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,440 I just didn't know that. Yeah, yeah. 241 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,080 And he's got three daughters and a son. 242 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,880 I he's such a good girl dad. Like I, I think it's great 243 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,080 because he's such a feminist. Oh, but I told you though, I 244 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,040 want to make T-shirts that say Andy Murray, tennis feminist on 245 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,040 them. Oh, that's good. 246 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,040 The The second choice is Andy Murray tennis lesbian because. 247 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:30,680 A little bad energy too. Oh, that is, see, I, I always 248 00:12:30,680 --> 00:12:34,640 want to go a little further and I that that is tennis lesbian 249 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,480 'cause he is such a tennis lesbian. 250 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,760 That might have to be like a new seven lesbian. 251 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,200 Yeah, that's like, just like. A bride isn't a bride last week. 252 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,240 Yeah, the whole goddamn month is pride. 253 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,200 So you know, Andy Murray, we celebrate you and your tennis 254 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,080 lesbianism and and also it's cool. 255 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,720 I think Queens is going on right now and they just renamed the 256 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,960 court after Andy Murray, which is awesome. 257 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,200 We're not going to talk about any actual tennis today, but. 258 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,960 No, but that's the Queen's Cup tennis lesbian. 259 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,040 I feel it's all coming together. Girl. 260 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,600 Yeah, exactly which tournament does he get 100 at Queens? 261 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,200 OK, Queen news. Yeah, we love that. 262 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,160 It's a ladies event this week too, so like, she's such a 263 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,200 tennis lesbian. He is in heaven. 264 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,320 He's in heaven. And it's like, I love that for 265 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,480 him and for us and for the WTA, for the other BIG4, we've got 266 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Federer, who's got somehow he has two sets of twins. 267 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,840 He had girls in 2009 and boys in 2014. 268 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,240 Then we got Novak, who's got a son and a daughter. 269 00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:38,400 The son is already 10. So in basketball we've got 270 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,200 LeBron James and his son playing for the Lakers together. 271 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,680 I just wonder, I mean, maybe this kid is not old enough yet 272 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,960 or Novak is too old. But like some they're we're 273 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,200 going to have like a double S team sometime in the next 10 to 274 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,800 15 years. That's going to be a dad and a 275 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,400 son. I just know it's coming, like, 276 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,120 you know, maybe it's going to be. 277 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,560 It's clearly going to be hailed with Fritz and his son. 278 00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:59,280 It seems like 5 with that symptom score. 279 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:00,320 Exactly. Yeah. 280 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,520 Or well, Mousetti is just pumping him out. 281 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,600 So, you know, we've got we've got a couple of youngsters who 282 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,960 are who are big baby daddies. And then we've got Rafa, who's 283 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:16,040 got one son, such a cutie during that final ceremony when we all 284 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,240 wept and we were all just like watching that and like the the 285 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,040 son was like, I'm going to just be two years old and like give 286 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,240 high fives to the big four. Like that was so cool. 287 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,120 Interestingly, though, he's the only one of the big four who 288 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,880 named his son after him. So it's Rafa Junior. 289 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,280 I was surprised by that. I'm still surprised Novak didn't 290 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,080 call his son Novak, but that's just. 291 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,720 Oh, I'm just surprised he gave him a what is it something? 292 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,440 Stefan. Yeah, that's pretty normal for 293 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:44,800 Novak. Yeah. 294 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,880 Who knows what he's gonna name it like after. 295 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,320 Like a planet no one's ever heard of. 296 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,240 Yeah, yeah. Or like some like like that Musk 297 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:56,400 name that was like a equation. Yeah, yeah. 298 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,680 After like a creatine powder. Yeah, exactly. 299 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,800 Or like whatever that orb was that he had attached to his 300 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,120 chest for whatever. Yeah. 301 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,920 I mean, he's got, he's got a lot of things that could inspire her 302 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,840 name. The daughter's name is Tara, 303 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,640 which is kind of an interesting name for like a Serbian. 304 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,680 I don't know if that's common. Tara. 305 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:13,680 It's. Kind of. 306 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,680 I don't think so. Tara Djokovic. 307 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:18,800 It's a good tennis name. Tara Djokovic. 308 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,280 Yeah, Oh yeah, get her on. Court Stefan Djokovic stuff. 309 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,680 It's not like a tennis player, but Tara Djokovic does. 310 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,200 Yeah. We'll have my Serbian tennis 311 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,600 friend Peter Megler weigh in on Leopard Tara as a Almond Serbian 312 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,040 name. Yeah, Peter, let us know in the 313 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,040 comments and we'll report back. So there's the big Four. 314 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,800 Do you have any thoughts on any of them as a dad or like who's 315 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,480 your favorite of the big four dads? 316 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,120 Oh, it's funny. I mean, I've never, I've never 317 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,440 seen Murray with his kids. You know, they don't really come 318 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,640 around a lot. Yeah. 319 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,680 So I mean, when you're sending it that many, I was kind of 320 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,720 shocked. And that doesn't mean he's a bad 321 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:59,520 dad because maybe he's like, I don't want these kids having to 322 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,760 schlep to, you know, all these tournaments or in the spotlight. 323 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,880 He's super normal. I was very surprised by how well 324 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,440 I responded to the doll being a dad. 325 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,400 Like, he seems to love that kid. I think the doll did something 326 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,080 smart. He had that kid at the end of 327 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,120 his career when he wasn't like sacrificing a whole bunch of 328 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,920 time with him. He seemed really into his kid. 329 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:24,960 I think Djokovic is actually a great dad, too. 330 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,440 When I see with this kid, you can tell he loves those kids. 331 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,600 Like he really, as much as you don't, people don't like 332 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,400 Djokovic when he sees himself as kid, he's super enthusiastic. 333 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,400 Better. I don't know, man. 334 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,240 Like there's always been, I mean, it's twins, you know, 335 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,040 there's something really weird there about the two twins and 336 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,000 the girls like a wife. It's very, it's so I mean, it's 337 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:51,920 probably IVF, right? Like, yeah, you know, but 338 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,400 there's something clinical about that marriage, that twin, that 339 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,800 big. Like, there's something uncanny 340 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,920 going on in that whole family situation. 341 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:05,960 You know, that seems not as heartwarming to me as when I saw 342 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,680 the dog walk out with his son or Jonkovic is cooling down on the 343 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,160 bike and his kid is running around. 344 00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:15,839 It doesn't seem to be as like, I don't know, organically joyful? 345 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,000 I get that. It's interesting. 346 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,720 I mean, Novak and I even admitted this on the last 347 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,720 episode, which I'm still ashamed of. 348 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,640 But during his loss in the semis to to Sinner, I almost started 349 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,680 rooting for Novak because I was just like, whoa, he's getting 350 00:17:29,120 --> 00:17:31,560 green. But but for Novak, you know, the 351 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,520 things that that he loves are country and family. 352 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:39,000 And so he is, he loves those kids and he's he's a good dad. 353 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,080 I mean, they're all, I'm sure they're all freaking amazing 354 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:42,320 dads. And honestly, even if they 355 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,320 weren't great dads, they're all worth well north of 100 million. 356 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,840 So I'd be happy to be their son, even if that dad was not very 357 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,560 good. So good. 358 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,240 Congratulations, someone else to do it. 359 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,200 Yeah, please. Money. 360 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:58,640 Money is money is a good parent. It's fine, all right. 361 00:17:58,640 --> 00:17:59,600 Think about the rest of the tour. 362 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,560 So you mentioned Danielle Medvedev, who we all we, you and 363 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,440 I, are we in love with?

That's the, the weird, not 389 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,760 funny, but like funny in like the weird sense dichotomy here 390 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,360 where moms, they have to go on maternity leave for six months, 391 00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:17,360 nine months, 12 months, come back. 392 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,920 Then even when they're on tour, that kid is going with them 393 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,920 breastfeeding or not breastfeeding, but like being 394 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,880 cared for and not. So the dads, it's like, yeah, I 395 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,960 stayed home with them for a couple weeks and now I'm back. 396 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,400 And then I I'll come out and I'll give them ice cream and I 397 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:30,840 am the best dad in the world.

Yeah, daughter named Sky and 403 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:58,160 spelled SKAI, which is cool. And they don't post Sky's face 404 00:19:58,360 --> 00:20:01,360 very much so I don't actually know if maybe she's not cute, 405 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:07,720 but I have a feeling she's cute. It's funny, this isn't Osakis. 406 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:15,000 Good Shai. Oh, let's see, we'll talk about 407 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,600 moms for one second.

It's just me bringing the spell 410 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,520 into the ball boys again, because we got the Elon Nolai 411 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,640 and now we've got to say Sky. Yeah, No, there are Da Vinci 412 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,640 Code moments. Well, and I can't wait in in 17 413 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,920 years when Shy and Sky face off against each other in the 414 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,560 quarterfinals of Wimbledon. So because and actually that 415 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,480 leads to the next segment. It's called dad jeans. 416 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,720 That's GENES. Because everyone's been talking 417 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,400 about this massive generational wealth transfer that's going on 418 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,080 between like the boomers and the rest of generations. 419 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,160 But what about the generational transfer of tennis talent that's 420 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,280 going on? We're seeing former players, 421 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,080 former male players transferring it to their sons. 422 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,720 So we've got Peter Korda, Australian Open champion from 423 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,240 the 90s, and his son Sebastian Korda, who will know American, 424 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,840 who somehow still ranked in the top 30 even though he wins one 425 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,120 thing a year. Which I never see him, but he's 426 00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:21,160 still ragged. 24 you. Know yeah, and he's just wearing 427 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,320 that same headband and he just kind of like he plays OK but 428 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,200 yeah, somehow I think I think he had a really good grass season 429 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,880 so he's either going to stay or tumble out starting right. 430 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,360 Now, and his sister's like the best golfer in the world. 431 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,520 What a family. I can't do golf. 432 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:38,720 I do not. I cannot. 433 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,240 It's it's not golf. No, this is a writer, not a 434 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:44,560 golfer.

Ben Shelton, by the way, just 439 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,040 cracked the top 10 for the first time, and not in that funny, 440 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,720 like, live rankings where he's going to fall back down like 441 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,880 he's going to be top 10 on Monday, which is, yeah, great. 442 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,920 Good for him. He's played well this this 443 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,360 tournament. I watched it like 2 matches. 444 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,320 But we're not.

And we were like, is it going to 449 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,960 be Musetti or Draper or Shelton? And now they've all made it into 450 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,360 the top 10. Yeah, clearly he lives. 451 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,400 The people who left the top ten are the likes of Rublev. 452 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:39,520 Sorry dude, Medvedev tumbled out and so it's all the Russians 453 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,680 they are rushing out of that top ten. 454 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:49,680 I'm curious though, who do we think is going to sire the next 455 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,600 Grand Slam champion?

Federer. 545 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,040 Federer never. No, not after having kids. 546 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,040 Oh, wait, no, sorry. That's so wrong. 547 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,960 He had his kids in 2009. Yeah, he won. 548 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,760 He won several. Sorry, that was that was my 549 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,240 mistake. What am I, ChatGPT? 550 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,480 Oh, here's the question. Who is going to be the next dad 551 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,880 to win a Grand Slam? Which which player? 552 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,920 They could have a kid right now. It could be like Mousetti 553 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,960 winning Wimbledon. I'm just curious, like what 554 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:56,520 Dad's going to win the Grand Slam next? 555 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,960 I mean, the obvious choices know that Bennington, Walker do. 556 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:08,600 You think he has a shot? Of all the dads, Yeah. 557 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,440 Like it's not, not of all the tennis players. 558 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,200 We have a very small playing field there. 559 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,040 I don't think GAIL Montes is winning a major. 560 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,640 Yeah, Musati for sure, but I don't think he's going to win. 561 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,280 What? I mean, he played really well 562 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,360 against Alcaraz. So yeah, I think there's a 563 00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:30,360 pretty yeah, Musetti. Hey, outside chance to Fritz, 564 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,920 but no. Yeah, I was thinking about Fritz 565 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,520 for this. Brusetti is better than Fritz, I 566 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,840 think, in this particular challenge, yeah, he's surging. 567 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,800 Fritz isn't going to get better, you know, if he has what he is. 568 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,280 Lusetti's what's? What's Lusetti? 569 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,120 Like 20 or something? Yeah, I know. 570 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:49,880 Even though he's got so many kids, he's. 571 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:51,360 Yeah, he's very he's. Six kids. 572 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,760 Yeah, those Italians, they do it. 573 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,280 But does he not know how? Does he not know how babies are 574 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,000 made? Like stop having babies, 575 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,840 Musetti. Look, you know, the Pope was 576 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,200 like, no. And he's like, OK, Well, the 577 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,520 thing with Musetti, though, the thing that worries about about 578 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:10,080 Musetti is as much as I love A1 handed backhand, I don't love 579 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:11,920 his. And I think that he's never 580 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:16,640 going to be able to overpower a Sinner or a Alcaraz with that 581 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,440 one hander. He needs, he needs a clear path 582 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,160 like he needs one of them not to play or to get injured and then 583 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,120 have a good day, you know? Yeah, I don't think Fritz is 584 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:31,760 doing it, you know. I think if Fritz just locks in 585 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,840 his serve, like he can eek it out. 586 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,360 Like eek it out. Oh yeah, it's. 587 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:42,200 How about Stitzapas and Bedosa have a kid as you predicted, and 588 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,920 then he wins a major? I would love that 'cause then I 589 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,880 would, you know, we can have like all the predictions rolled 590 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,280 into one. But yeah, I mean, I think 591 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,520 they're going to have a kid any minute now. 592 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:59,000 It's it's, it is written in her Mris where she's just, her back 593 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,920 is just done. So yeah, yeah. 594 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,880 What about Medvedev though? Like is Medvedev cooked? 595 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,800 Is he done? Like he just lost today. 596 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,120 Right. You know he would be obvious 597 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:11,800 choice. I don't know how I missed that. 598 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,160 He was pretty good at Indian Wells, as we talked about, 599 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,640 right. He lost in the semis, but then 600 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,880 he lost in the first round of Miami and it's. 601 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,680 Been a slip and slide since then. 602 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,880 It's really. How old do we think Diaz? 603 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,240 Like 30? Oh. 604 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,320 I was going to say like 29, which is a huge difference. 605 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:38,040 I'm going to look it up. He's 20. 9 I mean, as we all 606 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,200 know without talking about tennis, there's a very 607 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,400 impressive tennis match played past weekend. 608 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,960 And the level of that match was not the level of any of the 609 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,960 people we're talking about by a very long shot. 610 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,760 Not that those two players could, will always play that 611 00:30:55,760 --> 00:31:01,160 level, but I think they'll bring it for the most part in the 612 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,840 majors. So unless Carlos has a love 613 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:11,880 child out there, it's Djokovic. Yeah, who? 614 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,160 OK, this is complete speculation. 615 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,280 I'm not even sure if this is like a good question, but who's 616 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:23,800 going to have a kid first, Sinner or Alcaraz Sinner. 617 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:25,960 Interesting because of the Italian. 618 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,480 Have you ever heard of Alcaraz? No, Have you ever heard of 619 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,000 Alcaraz having a girlfriend? This is true. 620 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,600 He's just a party boy. He's just got back from Ibiza. 621 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,960 Yeah. I thought I first, I I heard he 622 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,520 likes Miami. Yeah, yeah. 623 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,040 And Sinner had Kellen Skya and he got somebody else. 624 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,800 Sinner's like a serial dater, very very posh and Prof I can 625 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:52,280 see Sinner having a young. Yeah, OK, OK, so with that mind, 626 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,520 yeah, with that in mind, I'm going to say that the next dad 627 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,000 who wins a Grand Slam is going to be Yannick Sinner. 628 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,040 So yeah, again. Where's he got to get married 629 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,000 then she's got to go Friday and check it in 10 years. 630 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:07,960 Yeah, exactly. Well, you know, we're, we'll 631 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,240 keep you posted, everybody. Like, I know we've got to like 632 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,160 we've got a lot of results that we'll be tracking outside of 633 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,160 just actual tennis. But that's the fun stuff. 634 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,440 And, you know, we're here to celebrate dads, even if they're 635 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,360 not a dad yet. So congratulations, Yonic 636 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:21,920 Center. You were the next dad. 637 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,840 Who's going to win? Dad watch. 638 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:31,080 OK. 2072.
