• 1:03
  Speaker 3: but it's good. We really committed a.
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: Hello, this is it actually feels worth your wearing the
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: Australia like representing the country right now and then we're
• 1:10

  Speaker 3: Well we have an ale hat on them. We're in this,
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: you know, we're still Australian.
• 1:16

• 1:20
  Speaker 5: the entire country.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: It's so good to have you in, Sam. I have
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: to get this out of the way.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Oh yes, I was wondering if you.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: We actually met. I want to say twenty nineteen. I
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: remember it pretty distinctly because I was playing Hughsey on
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: one of the courts here at the Tennis Center and
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: you're on the court next to us, just having a
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: hit and Hughsy. You guys knew each other from I
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: don't know whatever, famous people, famous people or whatever.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he introduced me to you, and uh, for
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: some reason, hus he goes, oh, Mike goes to the
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: US Open every year, right, And you go, oh, that's cool,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: and I go, yeah, just trying to make conversation, I said, yeah,
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: have you ever been to the US And as the
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: words we're coming out of my stupid face, I envision
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: you beating Serena at the twenty eleven US Open, And
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I've never felt stupid or anymore. But you were so cool,
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: You're like yeah, yeah, oh no, is that you you?
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, like a couple.
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's the answer of a great person to
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: not absolutely slap you sideways in that moment right there.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Is that the stupidest question you've ever got from somebody?
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: It's probably one of them.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Do you have any recollection of that moment?
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: No, that's fine, just the brain. It's a core memory
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: of mine.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: But isn't it interesting how people live their lives. You've
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: never thought about that again, you think about that every
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: morning when you wake up.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: I don't feel bad. You can let it go now.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, seven years later, what I've been absolved. It is
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: awesome to have you in here. Yeah. Obviously you won
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: that twenty eleven against Serena a dominant performance six two
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: sixty three. Did you know you had it in the bag,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: like when the Hindrance call happened.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: No, jeez, that was the scariest moment I've ever had
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: in a tennis court.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Oh really?
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, No, Actually, to be honest, I didn't even.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Know that rule. Okay, Oh so I.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Didn't know what was going on.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: And then you had, you know, the twenty five people
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: or whatever. It's kind of looking screaming and thinking, oh,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: this is Serena's chance now to you know, get in
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the match.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Give some yeah, some context or anyone who might not remember,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: like it was a break point for you. Yeah, and then.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: She she yelled out, comme on before.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I may or may not have could have got the ball,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: but the umpire said, you know, Hindrance, So she said
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: come on before the point was over. Yeah, and yeah,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I just did not know what to do, and I
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: just remember looking up to my plays and my manager
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: was like, change as Jans.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: Because I didn't realize what I was like, do I
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: get the point?
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Do I get the point?
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know what to do, so I kind of
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: fapped around for a little bit, pretending I needed my towel,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, we had just working things out,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: and yeah, I started changing agains and then the match
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: definitely started switching, swinging a little bit.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: And yeah.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: There was then another moment a couple of games later
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: where we're in a volley exchange and I saw I
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: hit a volley winner past her, and then as I
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: was turning around to go back to the baseline, I
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: saw out of the corner of my eye she clapped
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: it on her like, gave.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: Me a clap. And then I was like, oh, she
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: doesn't hate me. I'm okay, no, seriously, that's what.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: And then from that moment on then I was in
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: full control again and ended up winning in straight sets.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: But yeah, and so the lesson here is don't your opponent.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I told a friend of mine that story
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: on another podcast, and she then proceeded to tell Serena
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: that exact story. I think Serena has never clapped another point.
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: That's amazing to be playing the US Open final and
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: then being worried if your opponent liked you or not.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know why that came into my head and
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: why that mattered in that moment.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: She doesn't hate me, Yeah, I'm all good now I
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: can just beat her.
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And then you're worried about the twenty five thousand
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: people in the crowd.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: They probably hated you as well.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: That wasn't so much of an issue.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: As soon as they clapped at the end.
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: She was like, oh my god, it's all I care about.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: The hindrance call? Was it? So there was first set
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: or second second, early in the second, early in the second, okay,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: and then she berated the chair umpire right, and you're
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: just time you were sitting in your chair just zoning
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: it out or actually.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: To be honest, I knew she was. I knew she
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: was going at her, but because it was so loud.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: If you've ever been to the US.
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I've told you, but mine was
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: actually there for the twenty eleven US of and final.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: It was it was just.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: It's actually so loud on that court, and I couldn't
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: actually hear what she was saying. I knew that she
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: was doing something, but it was like far enough removed
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: and so loud I couldn't hear it, which was probably,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, such a good thing because I couldn't then
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: actually really get involved with it, even just giving it
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: a second to think.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: About anywhere inside.
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: But how do you like process or even get prepared
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: for that situation when you've got like Serena Williams, like
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: one of the most famous sportsmen to ever live sports
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: person to ever live screening fans, like a contentious call
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: going on, and you've just got to sit there and
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: just like get to it would be an out of
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: body experience.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: You can't prepare for something.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I've never been through that before that moment or after
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: that moment. So yeah, I mean, yeah, I was just
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: it was meant to be that day. I actually I
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: knew I was going to win the match for the
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: night before. Somehow I just was really confident that I
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: was going to go there play. I knew exactly what
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I want to do, and somehow, Yeah, I don't know why.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: How often have you gotten that feeling when you.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: Know, not very often.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I said I wish I had that feeling more times
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: than only once, but at least it was for the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: US Open. But yeah, it was a very strange event,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: of course.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean against Serena in front of a hometown
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: crowd especially, and then her calling the chair umpire a hater, I.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Believe, which is great to say to.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the rules, I mean there's match point. Look at
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: this what forehand inside out forehand to take it?
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Seeing you here? Is that like? Is that happiness or
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: relief or is it like a mixture.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Of both everything?
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it was a dream of mine to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: win a Grand Slam and I lost in the final
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: of the French Open the year prior, and you know,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: you don't know if you're ever going to get another chance.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: So it's like a dream realized. It's relief, it's everything
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: sort of rolled into one and then it all becomes
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: a bit of a blur and you're like, oh, I
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: wish I could do that again, experience it and actually
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: like really take it only Oh.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Look at that they're not happy? Not happy? So a
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: six two six' three? Match how long was the actual?
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: Match the like it's going to be about an hour. Ten,

  Speaker 3: It BUT i MEAN i would your thoughts, like do
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: you think they should have the electronic line calls or
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: just keep it.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: TRADITIONAL i think the clay it is relatively, obvious whether
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: it's in or. Out the electronic line calls a FANTASTIC
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: i think it's great for tennis that we've now got
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: it and there's no element you know of human era
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: and all that for the other surfaces where you can't
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: see a. Ballmark BUT i kind of like the drama
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: and all of, that THE uppi getting out and you, know,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: pointing and especially at The, french because the crowd there
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: are just they're so they love you or then they'll
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: just turn on a dime and hate you if you
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: question anything that's going, on.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: And you're, like you, know like, ME.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: I won't question of line call BECAUSE i don't want
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: you to build. Me BUT i kind of like that
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: drama of, it you, know all happening.
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: THERE i guess it.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Does, yeah now the electronic you don't have to rely
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: on plays to also stop it and all of, that
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: which is.
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: Good but, ye, YEAH i don't.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Know YEAH i. Missed the high guy was, Great, yeah.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: Exciting and THEN i, mean obviously there's less people on
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: court now because you don't have any wine judges out,
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: there but that also added an element to it as.
• 15:11

  Speaker 5: australia obviously The Australian open roles.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Around we're a tennis loving.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: Nation but then obviously people are, like, Oh i've got
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: my tennis, fix and then they kind of, reset you,
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: know they don't followed as passionately as they do when
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: the tennis is on in the early part of this,
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: year and when things like The Davids, Couple Billy Jing
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: coup are. ON i feel, like how do we get
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: the country to stand up and pay more attention.
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: To it doing podcasts like this right.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Well where the heroes are hundreds of.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: Listeners no, no, no no.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: No, WELL i mean obviously that's the.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Thing it is hard In australia because we have such
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: an amazing month of tennis and it's all around the.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Country everyone gets into, It Like melbourne just goes crazy
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: and it's like a festival carnival now whether you, know
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: come and watch a ball hit or.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: Not so you kind of.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Have all of that and then you know our Events
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Billy Drinking cup And Davis cut pop up periodically every
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: now and, then but we haven't played In melbourne for
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: fifteen years in this, event so we played In brisbane
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: a lot and some other cities Around australia and sometimes
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: we've got to play, overseas so, yeah we just got
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: to get it out there and know, that you, know
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: we've got great tennis here again in these coming days and,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: yeah come out and.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Watch is the timing of it tough with the clay
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: court swing starting to get players to come all the
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: way down here and then probably go play whatever tournament
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: for the Clay was it hard to convince anyone or
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: was it like, no this is it and it's going
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: to lead up to something.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Great, yeah our players never have a problem coming. Home
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: and to be, honest this is kind of a week
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: or two weeks where Our australian players do want to
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: come home anyway Because i've just been through The Middle,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: east through THE us for five to eight weeks and
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: then this is their chance to come home for a
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks before they go To europe and probably
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: away for the next four or five. Months so generally
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: our players want to come home, anyway and then if
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: they can come home and play, this it's, like, oh happy.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Days WHEREAS i know The brits weren't too, pleased but
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: having to get out in the plane.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: And see what are The brits happen.
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: About it's just one more thing to complain.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: About but that works to your, advantage right.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Absolutely and THAT'S i think that's the beauty of this
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: home and away format and they've kind of gone away
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: from it in the what once we get through this qualifying,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: match if we, win then we go into the, finals
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: which is held In. China, now so you've got eight
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: teams all playing off in the one.
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: City and.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: It's cool to have everyone, there but you also then
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: missed that home and away with the. Final we played
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: a final Against france In perth in twenty nineteen and
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: it was crazy. Atmosphere it was amazing and unfortunately lost
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: in the deciding match and it was one of the
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: most heartbreaking Bats i've ever played and, whatever but the
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: atmosphere and the crowd and everything was. Amazing and you
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: don't get that necessarily playing in neutral ground?
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: Anymore is?
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: It as?
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: Players how do people feel about like team tennis or
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: representing their? Country obviously it's so singles. DOMINATED i know there's,
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: doubles but it's still kind of a very much a
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: solo kind of then endeavor through this kind of tennis
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: world and then you get to play for your, country
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: is It is it more? Exciting like is it something
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: that players cherish like as much as singles?
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Tennis, yeah, yeah, yeah, no absolutely it.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Is you, know it's almost first and foremost for our
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: players to be LIKE i want to be in the.

• 20:20

  Speaker 1: or whatever we're, from relationships and. Everything obviously that can

  Speaker 3: like wrap around style shades on the.
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: Court, no they're typically.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: NOT i wouldn't say the most stylish things to wear
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: outside of a tennis, court, right practical, though very. PRACTICAL
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: i MEAN i only started wearing. IT i was like
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: fourteen WHEN i started wearing, sunglasses just BECAUSE i wanted
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: to be different and thought it looked. Cool and that's
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: HOW i started doing. It and then, anyway THEN i couldn't.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Stop so it looked cool on. You BUT i mean
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: any guy who wears them and his profile pick or
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: he's like holding a fish up not as.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Cool so it's what we call a red.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Flag and one other thing watching you play over the,
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: YEARS i was always very jealous of your. Biceps do
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: you have any tips for a peasly little man in the?
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Gym nobody believes, me BUT i never did bicep.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: Curlts that's.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Natural i've done more bicep curlts since, retire AND i
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: did not have the ARMS i HAD i ever did
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: playing just that was just natural and it was just
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: millions of.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: Ten that's, like that's.
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: GOOD i was about to, SAY i was about to, say,
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: lucky this is a, podcast AND i looked at the four.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Oh. Man, uh same with The Billy Jean King. Cup
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: how do you select who's playing which? Matches you, know
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: is there? Issues there is there a competitiveness within the team.
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: Who should be out? There, no it can.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Be it actually can be really hard to pick who
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: gets on. Court and to be, honest this was one
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: of the hardest selections to be in the team That
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: i've even beaten part, of because you, know usually you
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: got one or two higher ranked and it's you, know
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: drops and then it becomes pretty, obvious whereas this time
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: everyone's really bunched.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Together so it was actually quite hard to pick who
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: should be.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Here and then once you hear then you got to
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: pick who's going to play the actual. Matches so, YEAH i,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: mean we see what's happening during the, week who is practicing,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: well who you, know physically good matchups with our opponents
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: coming in coming in with very hot, form so, obviously
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: well we've got to use it.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Now so you don't just look at their ranking and go,
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: okay our highest ranked player plays their highest ranked players.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Later, well the first day our number, two our number
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: one will play against their number, two and then vice.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: Versa and then the second day we played doubles, first
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: and then it's the number ones against each, other in
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: number twos against each, Other so they kind of switch
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: it around during the. Thing but, look, obviously generally your
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: highest ranked players are going to. Play but if there's
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: a crazy matchup or something and you know they've never
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: beaten them before or, something you might want to switch
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: them in or. Out but LIKE i, said we haven't
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: really got any head to heads to go on with this,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: event so that sort of goes out the. Window but
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: it's really who's in, form who you think you you,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: know want to put out, there and who can get it.
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: Done is it ever just a bit of your gut,
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: feeling you, know like you're, Like i've just got to
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: vibe this is the right. Decision they were practicing, terribly
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: BUT i think they're going to get it.
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: Done, no for.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: SURE i think there was a bit of that in
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: the last, TIME i wasn't. THERE i was on maternity,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: leave But Nicole pratt was standing in his captain And
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: i'm pretty sure she, said you, know Told maya that
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: she was going to play the. Matches she was our
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: number one player by many many ranking, spots and then
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: she actually didn't have a great week on the practice,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: squad but put her out there and she.
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: Won everything was.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Fine but, again it's not the be all and end all,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: about you, know whether you're winning practice sets or. ANYTHING
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: i hated playing practice sets and practice, matches AND i
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: was kind of, like whatever if.
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: You win or, lose but still put.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: In SO i, mean if my selection was ever done
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: on practice, MATCHES i should never have played a match
