- 3:50Speaker 1: Indian Worlds six just wrapped up. What a tournament. It
- 3:55Speaker 1: was good to be there. Everyone was excited to see
- 3:58Speaker 1: me on the ground to.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Say yeah, it was there. Because you were saying Australian Open.
- 4:03Speaker 2: You're telling people to get into local gyms. Are you
- 4:06Speaker 2: telling people you're kind of in the industry out there?
- 4:08Speaker 1: In past springs from the Australia.

- 4:37Speaker 1: me out. I don't think she saw me, even though
- 4:39Speaker 1: I was yelling yeah yeah, yeah, and I couldn't be
- 4:43Speaker 1: exactly sure it was her.
- 4:44Speaker 2: So what about Tommy? Did he get you into Nobu
- 4:48Speaker 2: which there was a promise of that potentially No, no, my.
- 4:53Speaker 1: G yeah no and boo, he renegged on his promise.
- 4:59Speaker 1: That's disappoint podcast. And I was not allowed in to
- 5:02Speaker 1: Noobu despite my protest stations. Is that a word protest? Yeah?
- 5:06Speaker 2: That sounds pretty pretty good.
- 5:07Speaker 3: I will take it.
- 5:09Speaker 1: So yeah. But it was also being there. I saw
- 5:11Speaker 1: Jack Draper play Roberto Bautista early rounds, take him out
- 5:16Speaker 1: in three sets. Jack Draper, of course, was the reigning champ,
- 5:20Speaker 1: but he was coming off a shoulder injury. But his
- 5:22Speaker 1: match against Djokovic in the round of sixteen was to
- 5:26Speaker 1: me the match of the tournament, if not the year.
- 5:29Speaker 2: So amazing tournament. Mike, what do you say now you've
- 5:32Speaker 2: been there on the ground. Because here's a lot of
- 5:34Speaker 2: talk it's the fifth, the fifth Grand Slam, you know,
- 5:37Speaker 2: is there is there a case for that for the
- 5:40Speaker 2: Indian Worlds because one pitches it looks like the greatest
- 5:43Speaker 2: event of all time.
- 5:45Speaker 3: Mountains.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it's definitely better than the US Open in terms
- 5:50Speaker 1: of wow, spectator friendly and it's just yeah, I mean
- 5:53Speaker 1: it is paradise, just surrounded by palm trees and the
- 5:56Speaker 1: mountains and you know, middle of the desert. The weather
- 5:59Speaker 1: was per this time of year, but obviously heated up
- 6:03Speaker 1: because they were saying in the finals it was like
- 6:05Speaker 1: mid thirties. You know, our boys, Cinner, you put a
- 6:08Speaker 1: redhead out in that.
- 6:09Speaker 3: He's not good.
- 6:11Speaker 2: He's not the type of Italian that would thrive that.
- 6:14Speaker 2: He's not down on the Amafi coast type of Italian. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 6:19Speaker 1: You know they say Centner's biggest rivalry is Alcoraz, but
- 6:22Speaker 1: it's more of the sun.
- 6:24Speaker 2: The sun. Yeah.
- 6:25Speaker 1: So yeah, jockovers Draper for me Match of the tournament.
- 6:28Speaker 1: The Draper put his all into that and then got
- 6:30Speaker 1: cleaned up by Medvedev resurgence.
- 6:35Speaker 5: We love the medi He wasn't even going to make
- 6:38Speaker 5: it at one point he was stuck in thee he
- 6:41Speaker 5: was bunkering down him and rube Lev and then he
- 6:44Speaker 5: finally makes it and he has the tournament of his life.
- 6:47Speaker 2: Kind of kind of.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I mean, look what he took out Alcoraz in straight sets.
- 6:53Speaker 1: That was amazing. I think Alcoraz knew Dua Lipa was
- 6:57Speaker 1: watching from the crowd.
- 6:58Speaker 3: What's with him and all the pop stars.
- 7:01Speaker 2: It's what it's because he's a hot Spanish guy, the
- 7:03Speaker 2: best tennis player in the world. Woman wants to Yeah, okay.
- 7:09Speaker 3: All right, but particularly of popstar.
- 7:12Speaker 2: A leaper, it would it would throw me. I couldn't
- 7:15Speaker 2: do stand up in front of a leaper. I would
- 7:17Speaker 2: just be like, I'm not good to do a leaper.
- 7:19Speaker 3: Jesus this punchline.
- 7:23Speaker 1: Yeah, well, that's what they say, because you know, all
- 7:25Speaker 1: the huge celebrities go to the US Open, and it
- 7:28Speaker 1: was just I think Marty Fish said it was it
- 7:31Speaker 1: was good if you're winning, because you know you're playing
- 7:33Speaker 1: great in front of these huge stars. But at one
- 7:36Speaker 1: point he shanked aforehand and looked over and Brad Pitt
- 7:39Speaker 1: was shaking his head.
- 7:42Speaker 3: That's not that's real emotional.
- 7:46Speaker 1: That would suck.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Yeah, a leaper. I think in a huge way, a.
- 7:51Speaker 3: Huge way more a leaper or Brad Pitt.
- 7:56Speaker 2: Brad Pitt Like, I love Brad Pitt, but I could
- 8:00Speaker 2: disappoint him. He just seems like he's seen more of
- 8:02Speaker 2: the world. Yeah, like the literal sixteen year old boy
- 8:05Speaker 2: and me would do anything for doing.
- 8:10Speaker 1: Exactly. So that ended Alkoraz's sixteen match winning streaks. So
- 8:17Speaker 1: he really people were saying he was gonna, you know,
- 8:20Speaker 1: go through this tournament and then go through Miami and
- 8:22Speaker 1: he would rival some of the best winning streaks of
- 8:24Speaker 1: all time. Djokovic, Iagashavontek, but sixteen sweet sixteen and out.
- 8:30Speaker 2: Just let the guy. I have a little brain. You know,
- 8:32Speaker 2: you don't have to.
- 8:32Speaker 3: It's fine.
- 8:33Speaker 2: You can't win every time you get out there. And
- 8:35Speaker 2: I know that we all know. Yeah, exactly.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Earlier in the tournament. I'd love to hear your guys
- 8:46Speaker 1: take on this. I don't know if you saw it,
- 8:47Speaker 1: the uh Jack Draper versus Medvedev match, the Hindrance call
- 8:52Speaker 1: across that.
- 8:53Speaker 5: I am across this for those who haven't seen it,
- 8:56Speaker 5: it's like kind of it's a midpoint hand up.
- 9:02Speaker 2: The technical tennis him. It's a midpoint hand mido hand
- 9:06Speaker 2: classic midpoint hand up. We can look at it. Let's
- 9:08Speaker 2: look at it right now.
- 9:09Speaker 3: Yeah, Draper bood his hand up and it kind of.
- 9:13Speaker 2: Put Medvedev Medvedev. Then my mum would describe it chuck
- 9:16Speaker 2: to minty b and well he started like wing and
- 9:19Speaker 2: was but then he hit two points after right, Well,
- 9:22Speaker 2: that's the thing.
- 9:23Speaker 1: There was still four balls in the rally. Yeah, sure,
- 9:26Speaker 1: Draper thought the ball was out. There was no you know,
- 9:29Speaker 1: automatic line call, So I mean, why even kind of
- 9:32Speaker 1: stop and shrug and put your hand in the air. Uh,
- 9:35Speaker 1: there's still four balls played in the rally after that point,
- 9:38Speaker 1: and then Medvedev loses the point. Then he goes up
- 9:40Speaker 1: to the chair umpire and he goes hindrance. I saw
- 9:42Speaker 1: him like put his hand up and trug in the
- 9:45Speaker 1: middle of the rally, so we should do it over
- 9:48Speaker 1: and it's it's absolute bullshit. Really, Medvedev had no right
- 9:52Speaker 1: to play the point out and then claim hindrance yeah
- 9:55Speaker 1: shots or whatever earlier. So he should have well immediately, yeah, immediately,
- 10:00Speaker 1: if you see yeah, but also put his hands in there.
- 10:03Speaker 2: But they're they're using it's not probably the standard of
- 10:06Speaker 2: a chubb close call, but they've got their own close
- 10:08Speaker 2: call system, so it's like are it's just yeah, So
- 10:11Speaker 2: it's like even just truck a truck a whammy. It's like,
- 10:15Speaker 2: just play on, right, if the ball's not called, you
- 10:17Speaker 2: got to keep playing. And well, I know it's the hint,
- 10:20Speaker 2: like do you know what I mean, Like, I know
- 10:21Speaker 2: he put his arms up to signify that he thought
- 10:24Speaker 2: it was out, but it's like, just keep playing the point.
- 10:26Speaker 1: Well that's what happened. But then, uh Medvedev, man, it's
- 10:30Speaker 1: totally dodgy on his end for him to then go,
- 10:33Speaker 1: oh no once he loses the point, to be like, ah,
- 10:35Speaker 1: he distracted me, you know, four or five balls ago,
- 10:39Speaker 1: so like it's just insane. And then Draper was kind
- 10:42Speaker 1: of losing the match anyways. I think he was down six, one,
- 10:46Speaker 1: five four at this point, but he was starting to
- 10:48Speaker 1: kind of crawl back into the second set, and it
- 10:50Speaker 1: just like after that, you know, he was pouting about it,
- 10:53Speaker 1: and Medvedev was pretty sheepish afterwards and realized he made
- 10:58Speaker 1: a dick move, and for some reason, the chair umpire
- 11:01Speaker 1: went with him because I think.
- 11:05Speaker 2: You know, it's like it's out of the ordinary or whatever.
- 11:07Speaker 2: It's like, just make a decision, tell one of them
- 11:09Speaker 2: to stop being a baby and move on. I thought
- 11:11Speaker 2: the chair umpire was really just sitting on the fence
- 11:14Speaker 2: and just almost scared about it, like hating this being
- 11:17Speaker 2: put in that situation. I don't know, well, just scared
- 11:21Speaker 2: of having to make a call because it was like, yeah,
- 11:23Speaker 2: I mean it was out of the ordinary, the move right.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean what other sport would a play eventuate?
- 11:32Speaker 1: And then at the end of it if it didn't
- 11:33Speaker 1: go your way, you go, oh no, there's a foul
- 11:37Speaker 1: a few minutes ago.
- 11:38Speaker 2: But it's happens when I played pickball with you.
- 11:45Speaker 3: I don't know. I feel like he had it was
- 11:48Speaker 3: a rule he called the rule.
- 11:50Speaker 2: Yeah, but did he just winge about it? What do
- 11:52Speaker 2: they say though, It's like you should play and don't
- 11:55Speaker 2: try to play the umpires or anything. Just play, just
- 11:58Speaker 2: play on and push through it.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Well, so if you watch it at the net when
- 12:02Speaker 1: they you know, shake hands at the end of the match.
- 12:05Speaker 3: Draper was good about it. He was very diplomatic.
- 12:08Speaker 1: Yeah, Draper did this thing where he like in a
- 12:11Speaker 1: bro way, puts his hand on Medvedev's chest like it's
- 12:15Speaker 1: all good. But it's still that kind of passive aggressive
- 12:18Speaker 1: like I know you weren't distracted, you know, like that.
- 12:21Speaker 2: I thought he said something like do you hate me
- 12:23Speaker 2: or something?
- 12:23Speaker 1: Or do I dream that said do you hate me?
- 12:27Speaker 2: Yeah, which is.
- 12:29Speaker 3: Not insecure comment.
- 12:37Speaker 2: I thought he would be like you're on my hit list.
- 12:39Speaker 2: I would take you down, like you know, he would
- 12:41Speaker 2: very much like never forget.
- 12:43Speaker 1: But I mean Mevedev then obviously played the match of
- 12:46Speaker 1: his life, beating al Karaz in the next round, which
- 12:49Speaker 1: we already discussed straight sets. Alcaraz seemed untouchable, but then
- 12:53Speaker 1: Mevedev redlined his game the entire time was so aggressive,
- 12:57Speaker 1: like it's probably the best I've seen him play.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Maybe he needs like the the villainesque type kind of
- 13:04Speaker 2: character trait to bring out his best tenants.
- 13:07Speaker 1: You know, he just won Dubai, so he's obviously in form.
- 13:10Speaker 1: And then yeah, just was able to carry that through
- 13:13Speaker 1: to the final, where Sinner took him out in straight sets,
- 13:17Speaker 1: even though Centner was down zero four in the second
- 13:21Speaker 1: set tie break.
- 13:22Speaker 2: So it get through al Choraz and you're like, Wow,
- 13:25Speaker 2: I'm being the best tennis of my life, and it's
- 13:27Speaker 2: like all right, now you get it's.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Like, yeah, yeah, well you got to beat both those
- 13:33Speaker 1: guys right now. But it's like everyone expected a Center
- 13:36Speaker 1: Alchoraz final. They expected that at the Australian Open, and
- 13:40Speaker 1: you know, we say these guys are untouchable and the
- 13:42Speaker 1: gap is huge between them and the rest of the field.
- 13:45Speaker 1: But then the last two huge finals Australian Open and
- 13:49Speaker 1: Indian Wells, it hasn't been both of them. So like
- 13:51Speaker 1: Djokovic obviously is Djokovic took out Center at the AO
- 13:55Speaker 1: and then Medvedev. I think it's good for the sport.
- 13:58Speaker 1: I think that it's good.
- 13:59Speaker 2: But if you're not in the big two or maybe
- 14:02Speaker 2: the big three, big four, however you want to look
- 14:03Speaker 2: at kind of the top end of men's tennents, it's like,
- 14:05Speaker 2: I feel like the only way to win is you've
- 14:07Speaker 2: got to hope. It's like someone else has to take
- 14:09Speaker 2: one of them out earlier in the tournament because it's
- 14:12Speaker 2: like you're and you still probably won't win, or like
- 14:15Speaker 2: they've both got to go out.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Do you mean in like a tiny herding type way.
- 14:21Speaker 2: Five times on this podcast it is all for in
- 14:27Speaker 2: front of his mind. He's always referencing doing to me
- 14:32Speaker 2: what's on Russ.
- 14:36Speaker 1: You're kind of the Nancy Kerrigan to myrding.
- 14:38Speaker 2: Dude, I think you've actually made that reference. I feel
- 14:43Speaker 2: like you introduced me during the Open week on it
- 14:46Speaker 2: with it.
- 14:47Speaker 1: That's good stuff. It is well so I mean Medvedev.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Obviously it was pushed it. It was two tiebreak sets,
- 14:57Speaker 1: so like good to push center that far. Like I said,
- 14:59Speaker 1: it was super hot on the court. Cinner seemed to
- 15:02Speaker 1: be cramping at some point, but then ultimately was able
- 15:05Speaker 1: to come back.
- 15:06Speaker 2: In European and an Italian from the mountains surprised. They
- 15:14Speaker 2: lucky to both walk out a lot they are do
- 15:17Speaker 2: a LiPo.
- 15:18Speaker 1: Sounds like Cinner telling someone to jump. If you think about.
- 15:21Speaker 2: It, yeah, I got it.
- 15:27Speaker 4: That took me a while, Thank you, thank you.
- 15:32Speaker 2: I try my ham over there. It must be later
- 15:35Speaker 2: for you because that is red hot. You've had some
- 15:36Speaker 2: time to get the brain going.
- 15:38Speaker 1: Yes, it is, it is.
- 15:41Speaker 2: I think I almost picked Medvedev as well to win.
- 15:44Speaker 1: I just would like that. Noted.
- 15:45Speaker 2: I didn't officially pick him, but he was my like
- 15:47Speaker 2: real he was like my actual potential pick, and then
- 15:50Speaker 2: I went Chris O'Connell. But that's what my heart says.
- 15:52Speaker 1: So you would like it, noted you would like it,
- 15:54Speaker 1: noted that you were going to be wrong again.
- 15:57Speaker 2: No, that was almost right. Almost right is good though
- 16:05Speaker 2: for me.
- 16:07Speaker 3: Sam was looking at you with the most approving look.
- 16:11Speaker 2: I think it's like Medvedev to be like I was,
- 16:15Speaker 2: like Medvedev could win, or Chris o'conn or Chris O'Connell
- 16:19Speaker 2: who got knocked out in the first round. But that's fine.
- 16:22Speaker 2: But I just think it's like, you know, who would
- 16:24Speaker 2: have picked Medvedev to make the finals, someone who really
- 16:27Speaker 2: knows tennis. That's fair.
- 16:31Speaker 1: It before he even started.
- 16:34Speaker 2: Oh yeah, before the tournament started. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 16:37Speaker 2: I'm not of course, that's that would be a crazy
- 16:39Speaker 2: thing to brag about before the final.
- 16:43Speaker 1: To win.
- 16:45Speaker 2: Hey, I think he might do it. He might not
- 16:46Speaker 2: as well, but he might do it.
- 16:52Speaker 1: We should talk about the women's draw at the Indian
- 16:56Speaker 1: Wells tournament, because I got to say that final match
- 17:00Speaker 1: between Sablenka and Rebeccaha was one of the best finals
- 17:05Speaker 1: and one of the best women's matches of the year
- 17:07Speaker 1: so far. They were both playing great at the same time.
- 17:10Speaker 1: I think Rebeccaena started to wilt in the sun a
- 17:12Speaker 1: little bit and Sablenka honestly funny.
- 17:16Speaker 2: It's funny imagery using the just wilting under the wilt.
- 17:21Speaker 5: She's definitely fair because like I feel like she handles
- 17:25Speaker 5: the heat.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Yeah, and it was I mean Rebecca had match point. Yeah,
- 17:32Speaker 1: yeah she does.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Yeah, Rebacca is not yet no no.
- 17:35Speaker 1: No, yeah. Rebeccaha had match point in the third set
- 17:39Speaker 1: tie break and Sablenka go back and watch this if
- 17:43Speaker 1: you haven't seen it already, Like it's amazing. The backhand
- 17:47Speaker 1: she hits the same match point is scary, like how
- 17:52Speaker 1: much she just rips it, just balls of steel just
- 17:56Speaker 1: through the court. Rebecca couldn't even get a racket on it.
- 17:59Speaker 1: It was amazing. And then that changed everything. Sable Anca
- 18:03Speaker 1: wins the next couple points takes the final, her first
- 18:07Speaker 1: Indian Wells final. She had lost her back in a
- 18:10Speaker 1: previous year and it was a good week for her.
- 18:14Speaker 1: She got a new puppy, she got engaged and she won.
- 18:20Speaker 5: The engagement was so funny because like in Australia, she
- 18:24Speaker 5: she kind of threatened her fiance at the time.
- 18:27Speaker 2: About her fiance, it's that he's the guy. He's in
- 18:30Speaker 2: the box a lot. What's his name? Do you know
- 18:32Speaker 2: his name? George?
- 18:34Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but he was basically threatened, like you
- 18:37Speaker 5: better propose to me soon or believe it.
- 18:39Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the subtext of it.
- 18:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that.
- 18:42Speaker 4: Yeah, right, and then and then the.
- 18:43Speaker 5: Proposal happens and everyone's like, oh my god, what a surprise.
- 18:47Speaker 2: But it's you want to propose when like she's doing well,
- 18:51Speaker 2: like you can't propose just after she lost the Australian
- 18:54Speaker 2: Open final, like you need the win, I think, the
- 18:57Speaker 2: tournament win. Then you propose, And then she's just got indoorphins.
- 19:00Speaker 2: She says, yes, change you'd say no post loss.
- 19:04Speaker 1: Well, she was playing her matches with a twelve carrot
- 19:08Speaker 1: diamond ring on her hand.
- 19:10Speaker 3: That would have to change his style though. Yeah.
- 19:19Speaker 1: Yeah, they said it's like a million dollar ring. And
- 19:21Speaker 1: then also, I mean, you know, I was with my
- 19:24Speaker 1: wife and she saw that twelve carrot ring and really
- 19:27Speaker 1: put her cubic zirconium to shame. Yeah.
- 19:31Speaker 2: God, I thought of a money bags guy like you,
- 19:34Speaker 2: who's always getting around the world would have Yeah, I
- 19:36Speaker 2: would have shorted her out with something better.
- 19:39Speaker 1: And she's the money bags. I'm just she's supporting an artist.
- 19:42Speaker 2: Yeah, you're just a man with an Australian opened lanyard
- 19:46Speaker 2: who doesn't take it off year round. That's all you.
- 19:49Speaker 5: Getting three weeks.
- 19:55Speaker 2: So, Mike, are we seeing like a clear kind of
- 19:58Speaker 2: top two, like a classic modern rivalry between these two
- 20:01Speaker 2: kind of emerging? I think so. And I know it's
- 20:04Speaker 2: like the hardcore and we'll move to kind of different services.
- 20:06Speaker 2: But they kind of looked to it separated themselves well.
- 20:09Speaker 1: I mean, they played the end of year Tour finals
- 20:13Speaker 1: which Rebeccaha won, and then they played the Australian Open final.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Of course, Rebecca wins that Sablenka needed to win this
- 20:20Speaker 1: because her finals record was starting to get away from
- 20:23Speaker 1: her a little bit. She was turning into a bit
- 20:25Speaker 1: of a choke artist, and.
- 20:27Speaker 2: I that's my impression of a choke artist. By the way.
- 20:30Speaker 1: That was very good. And I think this is the rivalry.
- 20:34Speaker 1: This is awesome for the women's tennis. I think they
- 20:39Speaker 1: thought it was going to be Sablenka and IgA Shavontec,
- 20:41Speaker 1: but Shavontek's kind of fallen away. She'll probably come back
- 20:44Speaker 1: and dominate for the clay court season, but right now
- 20:47Speaker 1: it's Sablenka and Rebeccaa. Rebeccas, you know, moving to number
- 20:51Speaker 1: two in the world. Sablenka will hold firm for number one,
- 20:54Speaker 1: and they called Center and Alcaaz sinker Az. But I
- 20:57Speaker 1: haven't heard anyone coin A, sabag Linca Rebecca a joint
- 21:03Speaker 1: right now?
- 21:04Speaker 5: Oh seven, sain Ribalenka.
- 21:17Speaker 2: That's fun to say.
- 21:19Speaker 3: Because it kind of sounds like rivalry.
- 21:21Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, Ribalenka.
- 21:24Speaker 3: He Didbanca.
- 21:26Speaker 6: Oh my god, yeah, actually really I pictured those two
- 21:36Speaker 6: kind of playing the key roles.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Actually be oh my god, oh no, cut that out. No, no,
- 21:43Speaker 1: keep that cut that out with scissors.
- 21:45Speaker 4: If you catch my grip, keep it in, keep it
- 21:53Speaker 4: it was in, It was out.
- 21:56Speaker 1: All right, We'll go with ribal Anka. Oh. But she
- 21:58Speaker 1: also said this so in one of her host match interviews,
- 22:01Speaker 1: she said, I have to get on the plane to
- 22:03Speaker 1: go to Miami, right, probably a private jet. They said,
- 22:06Speaker 1: how are you going to celebrate? She said, espresso, martinis
- 22:09Speaker 1: and five guys.
- 22:11Speaker 2: Who five? How many seats are on the plane.
- 22:16Speaker 5: Yeah, five guys, and I my my head went to five.
- 22:22Speaker 2: Didn't really get five men?
- 22:24Speaker 1: Yeah, because I.
- 22:28Speaker 2: Must be n I do love it, but that would
- 22:31Speaker 2: take it to another level, just getting five strip.
- 22:36Speaker 5: Martini, because that's not my first thought, like anyone outside
- 22:40Speaker 5: of America, I don't think thinks five guys gets five guys.
- 22:44Speaker 1: But that's like in the American Southwest, it's like one
- 22:48Speaker 1: of the bigger burger chains five. But the other bigger
- 22:50Speaker 1: one would have sounded bout as well if she said
- 22:52Speaker 1: espresso martinis and in and out, be.
- 22:56Speaker 4: Like Jesus, five in and out, five.
- 23:01Speaker 1: Five guys, five guys and.
- 23:03Speaker 2: Guys in and out. Oh my god, But that is
- 23:05Speaker 2: a good way to celebrate, regardless pressing my teens some
- 23:08Speaker 2: dirty junk food, like well done, engaged.
- 23:13Speaker 1: Engage new puppy. She made sure she brought up the
- 23:16Speaker 1: new puppy, probably more than an engagement.
- 23:18Speaker 2: Her life is good, yeah, it is better than mine.
- 23:22Speaker 3: But she's got a new puppy, got a million dollar ring.
- 23:26Speaker 4: Does she.
- 23:28Speaker 2: Like on her TikTok any hard work? It is just
- 23:30Speaker 2: all fun, fun, fun, that's it.
- 23:33Speaker 5: She's always having fun. And then Rebecca not like as
- 23:35Speaker 5: soon as something good happens, she's like, see your and
- 23:38Speaker 5: she closes.
- 23:39Speaker 3: She doesn't do any of.
- 23:40Speaker 1: The I love that Rebecca shrug and stroll up to
- 23:44Speaker 1: the net. She rules. So after Indian well, Sebolanka retains
- 23:55Speaker 1: her number one ranking, but Australia's very own Talia Gibson
- 24:00Speaker 1: and has risen forty four places. Tournament comes from sixty eight.
- 24:09Speaker 3: Yeah, she came from fires in yours.
- 24:13Speaker 2: She played a watch, she went the hard way. Yeah,
- 24:17Speaker 2: that's that's impressive.
- 24:19Speaker 1: Yeah. And if you look at the WTA website though,
- 24:21Speaker 1: they still don't have a picture of her and are
- 24:24Speaker 1: using a silhouette.
- 24:25Speaker 2: Yeah. It looks like when a big names like dropping
- 24:29Speaker 2: into a comedy club and they they're like secret guests announced.
- 24:35Speaker 2: It's almost like the WTA just like see if you
- 24:38Speaker 2: can guess who is ranked number forty.
- 24:40Speaker 1: Four, you deserve a picture. If you're in the top
- 24:43Speaker 1: one hundred, you deserve.
- 24:43Speaker 2: You need What did she miss Orientation day? How does
- 24:46Speaker 2: she not have a photo?
- 24:48Speaker 3: Yeah, there's photos of her online. Just it's like, good
- 24:50Speaker 3: at the picture.
- 24:51Speaker 2: I had to make a photo for my Rebel Sport
- 24:54Speaker 2: gift account or whatever it is. Can't you just take
- 24:56Speaker 2: an iPhone selfie and send it to the tour administra.
- 25:00Speaker 5: Exactly after all of this, I reckon I could be
- 25:04Speaker 5: a good tennis manager.
- 25:05Speaker 2: Oh really, Yeah, what would you do if you had
- 25:07Speaker 2: a player, say I'm your one of your stars. Yeah,
- 25:11Speaker 2: I'm ranked top thirty. What would you tell me to do,
- 25:13Speaker 2: like for like public, for your brand? Yeah, for my brand.
- 25:17Speaker 5: Yeah, well we're yeah, we're getting online, we're doing socials
- 25:20Speaker 5: and showing some of your personality.
- 25:21Speaker 2: So that's their whole thing.
- 25:23Speaker 5: They want to show personality. But then every interview we
- 25:26Speaker 5: had there was only one person who had hey can
- 25:29Speaker 5: you ask us about this?
- 25:32Speaker 3: They all need to come with questions.
- 25:34Speaker 5: I like that, they only need to come with a
- 25:37Speaker 5: narrative that that's so goot.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Well that's what would happen when I used to work
- 25:42Speaker 2: on the project, would have guests come in and then
- 25:44Speaker 2: the producer would talk to them and be like, what's
- 25:46Speaker 2: going on in your life? Is there some fun stuff
- 25:48Speaker 2: we could talk about? So we would like prompt them
- 25:51Speaker 2: based on the stuff. And so that's what these tennis
- 25:53Speaker 2: people need to be doing.
- 25:55Speaker 5: They hate the questions. Make up your own questions. There's
- 25:59Speaker 5: a salute ship.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Oh my god, Lizzy is about to take over the tennis.
- 26:05Speaker 3: I'm going for Craig.
- 26:08Speaker 2: The Australian Open.
- 26:09Speaker 1: Okay, take Kylie's position.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Yeah, also going you know, going down not to like
- 26:14Speaker 2: kick the booting when people are down, but Daniel Collins,
- 26:17Speaker 2: the American has gone down twenty one places.
- 26:19Speaker 3: We love her.
- 26:20Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I know she's polarizing, but I'm a big kid.
- 26:25Speaker 1: No, she rules. But I also don't think she's played
- 26:27Speaker 1: a tournament since the US Open, So it's like, why
- 26:31Speaker 1: is that even on there?
- 26:32Speaker 2: Yeah? What I mean, they shouldn't take it. They should
- 26:35Speaker 2: That's like a pressure release they got sent to me.
- 26:37Speaker 2: It's like that's to be mean to her, just like
- 26:40Speaker 2: saying Roger Federer is getting worse. It's like, yeah, he
- 26:42Speaker 2: doesn't play professional tennis anymore.
- 26:51Speaker 1: A well, the member of drama continues because he had
- 26:55Speaker 1: to get to Miami today. He lost his luggage. United Airlines.
- 27:03Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys are across it, but
- 27:04Speaker 1: the American airline UH companies, they're all in massive duress
- 27:10Speaker 1: and chaos. You've been airport shutdowns because because of the
- 27:13Speaker 1: government shut down, UH canceled flights. These poor spring break
- 27:17Speaker 1: kids can't get to king Kun.
- 27:21Speaker 2: And that also would mean that you can't get to
- 27:22Speaker 2: Kankun because you will plenty to go down with them.
- 27:25Speaker 1: I was you had down there, well, not with them? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you.
- 27:36Speaker 2: Know I should have directed the insult at you you
- 27:41Speaker 2: could have been the more I have. She just stayed
- 27:47Speaker 2: off in the distance.
- 27:49Speaker 4: It is great.
- 27:54Speaker 1: What we say. Oh yeah, the United Airlines lost his luggage,
- 27:58Speaker 1: so he tweeted at them, need a little flew from
- 28:00Speaker 1: Palm Springs to Florida yesterday and none of my bags
- 28:03Speaker 1: or I kind of helped, kind of need them to
- 28:05Speaker 1: play in the miaomia open can you help? And then
- 28:09Speaker 1: they sent some automated response that I'm sure they.
- 28:11Speaker 2: Always AI Twitter situation.
- 28:14Speaker 1: Yeah, and then he called out the AI said the
- 28:17Speaker 1: amount of AI help has been overwhelming face palm emoji.
- 28:22Speaker 2: And they haven't worked how to write that into algorithms
- 28:26Speaker 2: yet to understand sarcasm from a crazy Russian professional sportsman.
- 28:32Speaker 2: And that's why you know humanity will ultimately beat the machines,
- 28:36Speaker 2: because it can never pick up on it.
- 28:38Speaker 1: Well, you heard it here first. Sam Totten is saying
- 28:42Speaker 1: that humanity will beat the machines.
- 28:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I will back Medvedev all the way through. I'll
- 28:49Speaker 2: read I beat the machines. He might not, and you
- 28:51Speaker 2: can hold me to that, and I want some credit
- 28:53Speaker 2: for it.
- 28:54Speaker 3: He's too unpredictable. Machines can't learn him.
- 28:57Speaker 2: They can't learn him, but surely he could just borrow
- 29:00Speaker 2: a racket.
- 29:01Speaker 3: He's got a.
- 29:02Speaker 5: Sponsor, kind of sponsor to help him out more than
- 29:06Speaker 5: you know.
- 29:07Speaker 1: Yeah, totally, I think so. Yeah, But you know they're
- 29:10Speaker 1: all superstitious. He's probably has some bullshit in his bag
- 29:13Speaker 1: that he needs to have at the tournament. And you
- 29:15Speaker 1: know they have these rackets geared to their specifications.
- 29:18Speaker 2: It would be their funniest reason to not play it
- 29:23Speaker 2: my racket. It's like, what do you mean when I
- 29:26Speaker 2: was twelve and didn't want to go to school sport
- 29:28Speaker 2: that I left it on the bus.
- 29:33Speaker 1: Well, let's do predictions now for Miami, so we have
- 29:37Speaker 1: it on record so we can all make our predictions
- 29:40Speaker 1: and then Sam, you can actually do one this time
- 29:42Speaker 1: that we can revisit at the end of the Miami Open.
- 29:45Speaker 1: So Lizzie, you start, who do you like on the
- 29:48Speaker 1: women's side in the men's side to win this next
- 29:50Speaker 1: Master's one thousand in.
- 29:51Speaker 5: Miami women's side? Rebecca and all will take it back
- 29:56Speaker 5: it all right?
- 29:57Speaker 1: Like it?
- 29:58Speaker 4: You love her?
- 29:59Speaker 2: I'm going Chris O'Connell again.
- 30:02Speaker 1: Oh god, this guy doesn't even really know who you are.
- 30:06Speaker 1: You don't have to keep pumping him up.
- 30:08Speaker 2: No, it's out of respect. It's out of respect to
- 30:11Speaker 2: his family. His sister is a close friend of mine,
- 30:14Speaker 2: and he just he did just qualify. So he's in,
- 30:17Speaker 2: and I reckon, he'll go deep. I reckon, he'll go deep.
- 30:20Speaker 2: And when he makes, when he wins, God, I imagine
- 30:23Speaker 2: how much if I'm talking about me vaguely saying Medvedev
- 30:27Speaker 2: might win and he didn't, but he made the fine,
- 30:29Speaker 2: imagine how crazy I'll go when Chris O'Connor wins in Miami.
- 30:33Speaker 5: We'll get you back on, thank you, thank you. Well,
- 30:37Speaker 5: I'm Rebuccina Women's And then I think A did pull out?
- 30:42Speaker 1: No, pulled out? What a shoulder injury, which interestingly will
- 30:50Speaker 1: make him drop out of the top three and he'll
- 30:53Speaker 1: be replaced by Zavera.
- 30:55Speaker 2: It's over for that guy, Jokovic, It's done. It's like, pathetic, dude,
- 31:00Speaker 2: even yeah.
- 31:02Speaker 1: Number what a loser. I actually had this thought because
- 31:07Speaker 1: because he is thirty eight, the crowds are getting behind
- 31:10Speaker 1: him way more. Oh yeah, totally, he's getting he's getting
- 31:13Speaker 1: a level of support that he hasn't seen ever before
- 31:15Speaker 1: in his career. He's always kind of been a villain
- 31:17Speaker 1: I think he's loving having crowds on side, and he's
- 31:22Speaker 1: gonna I mean, he said he's gonna probably play in
- 31:24Speaker 1: the next Olympics in la in twenty twenty eight, so
- 31:28Speaker 1: he has to hold up a standard of training and
- 31:30Speaker 1: practice and playing the big tournaments. I think he loves
- 31:34Speaker 1: having the sport now and he's he's gonna try his
- 31:37Speaker 1: hardest for the next two years. And then yeah, call it.
- 31:40Speaker 2: Yeah, because it it must feel so good to be
- 31:43Speaker 2: hated for your entire career and be like the best,
- 31:46Speaker 2: but you're like whatever, people don't like me, but it
- 31:48Speaker 2: doesn't matter because I'm number one. And then now just
- 31:50Speaker 2: everything like I love, which is like you know, I've
- 31:53Speaker 2: always feeling love for the first time.
- 31:55Speaker 3: Yeah, that people have to respect you.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I mean it's unfortunate he's not
- 32:01Speaker 1: playing in Miami because it was great at Indian Wells,
- 32:04Speaker 1: Like I said that Drapper Trapper Draper match was the best.
- 32:09Speaker 1: And then my tips for okay, I'm gonna say, yeah,
- 32:17Speaker 1: Chris O'Connell the big CEC. I think it's I. I
- 32:26Speaker 1: honestly think one of them, Sablenca or Center does the
- 32:29Speaker 1: Sunshine double. I just can't ultimately decide I'm gonna say
- 32:33Speaker 1: Sablenka and then I'll go Alcarez. I know it's boring,
- 32:37Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go Alcarez.
- 32:39Speaker 2: The rotating the pieces around.
- 32:46Speaker 1: Tanya Harding, Tanya Harding in other news. I don't know
- 32:54Speaker 1: if you guys saw this. Uh, they're training robots to
- 32:59Speaker 1: play like humans. Let's have a look. Yeah, crazy, Yeah,
- 33:03Speaker 1: what do you think? I think that robot is standing
- 33:05Speaker 1: in the middle of no man's.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Absolutely, you can. Absolutely, I could could even exploit that
- 33:11Speaker 2: weakness if I was playing against the robot. Get back
- 33:14Speaker 2: on the baseline and get up to the net. What
- 33:15Speaker 2: are you doing, your dumb robot?
- 33:18Speaker 5: Do you imagine if you could train like in the future.
- 33:21Speaker 5: This is early stages robot.
- 33:24Speaker 2: It is true.
- 33:24Speaker 5: Do you train this and it's like going to be
- 33:27Speaker 5: like AI? Yeah, you would program the robot. Can you
- 33:31Speaker 5: play like Sinner? If you're an outcrez, play like Sinner
- 33:34Speaker 5: and then you're just practicing against Sinner all day and
- 33:38Speaker 5: then you get better?
- 33:39Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 33:40Speaker 2: I look, there's there's every word where the robot gets
- 33:42Speaker 2: better than us. So I think we just enjoy Well,
- 33:45Speaker 2: it's a bit shito, okay, you know a little cloak
- 33:49Speaker 2: backhand from the robot just then figure.
- 33:53Speaker 1: Thanks, it's so slow he's hitting little lollipop shots at it. Yeah,
- 33:57Speaker 1: you just want to like hit a two hundred can
- 34:00Speaker 1: at its head and try and knock it off.
- 34:02Speaker 5: I just wanted to be on the record that I'm
- 34:04Speaker 5: pro your pro robot. No, just so when the robots
- 34:07Speaker 5: take over, they'll recognize me and.
- 34:11Speaker 3: You could, she said in March six, do.
- 34:13Speaker 2: Whatever you want, robot. No, it's all about being on
- 34:16Speaker 2: the right side.
- 34:17Speaker 3: Chris O'Connell prediction.
- 34:19Speaker 2: Under command, Under command, I will be part of the
- 34:25Speaker 2: human resistance and the Russian is going to lead us.
- 34:27Speaker 4: Tog robot.
- 34:28Speaker 5: You heard it here first, I'm already put the micro
- 34:32Speaker 5: I've done.
- 34:33Speaker 2: Could you be a robot now?
- 34:36Speaker 3: Probably not.
- 34:38Speaker 4: Robot has it all over me.
- 34:41Speaker 1: Honestly, that rally that the robot has with the guy
- 34:44Speaker 1: looks way better than hughsy And well, if you could
- 34:50Speaker 1: design the robot to like look like anybody so to
- 34:53Speaker 1: play against, who would you design the robot to.
- 34:56Speaker 3: Look like a very gentle merit safin.
- 35:00Speaker 2: Oh you want to get beaten?
- 35:04Speaker 3: No, I want to I want to win.
- 35:07Speaker 2: Oh okay, yeah, I would be like I don't I
- 35:10Speaker 2: would want it to look like to a lipa, but
- 35:11Speaker 2: and we just don't play tennis. Yeah, that would be DJ.
- 35:15Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah, So what are you doing besides tennis
- 35:18Speaker 1: with a lipa?
- 35:20Speaker 2: You know, just going for long walks Cookie, Maybe they're
- 35:22Speaker 2: singing some songs.
- 35:25Speaker 5: You know.
- 35:26Speaker 3: I just haven't you do Elton John, Yeah.
- 35:29Speaker 1: You've already you've already, you've already succumbed to the robots
- 35:32Speaker 1: at this point because they made a hot one, like
- 35:34Speaker 1: a picture you're part of the Yeah, within three months,
- 35:40Speaker 1: you're going to be like on a leash and like
- 35:42Speaker 1: on all fours next to some hot robots.
- 35:46Speaker 2: But I would do that to the human doing leaf.
- 35:49Speaker 2: Of course I'll do it.
- 35:51Speaker 3: Yeah, what about you, Mike?
- 35:54Speaker 2: Yeah, who do you want?
- 35:55Speaker 1: I think I would have it look like my ex wife.
- 36:03Speaker 1: I don't have a wife.
- 36:06Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like, no, would like a really nerdy
- 36:10Speaker 2: tennis answer like agacy, like you picturing that you're beating
- 36:14Speaker 2: one of the greats or something.
- 36:15Speaker 1: Yeah, I would definitely go fetter or even like Marcellos Rios.
- 36:21Speaker 1: You guys probably don't even know because you know you're not.
- 36:23Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, cool. Why didn't you get some podcast with
- 36:27Speaker 2: two other robots.
- 36:28Speaker 1: Then how about that if I could program them to
- 36:34Speaker 1: be funnier.
- 36:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd program them to be in the.
- 36:38Speaker 1: Room with me as well. Maybe well, should we get
- 36:48Speaker 1: into everybody's favorite segment? The people are crying out for it.
- 36:56Speaker 4: I hate this.
- 37:07Speaker 2: Edit it, I love this.
- 37:14Speaker 1: Much.
- 37:15Speaker 3: I'm a big mix anagrams fan.
- 37:17Speaker 1: Oh thank you. So this week I've chosen the name
- 37:25Speaker 1: Arena Sablenca Foreblanca for obvious reasons. She just won Indian
- 37:32Speaker 1: Wells and now she is in Miami, which is in
- 37:35Speaker 1: the deep South of America, very close to Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas,
- 37:39Speaker 1: so she has a lot of a's in her name.
- 37:42Speaker 1: So the beginning of this is like, ah, like ah,
- 37:45Speaker 1: like you know, look out. So this is Arena Sateca. Yeah, yeah,
- 37:50Speaker 1: Arena Sabalanca. The mix anagrams for the week is ah,
- 37:55Speaker 1: clans nearby. Thank you.
- 37:58Speaker 5: He didn't say clan clans clans that might not make.
- 38:05Speaker 1: It might not make.
- 38:08Speaker 2: It's going to get a nick coming back around on
- 38:13Speaker 2: the segment. I think that is incredibly creative.
- 38:16Speaker 1: It is.
- 38:17Speaker 2: I think maybe you know borderline whether it makes it through,
- 38:20Speaker 2: But well done, Mike. I don't remember.
- 38:23Speaker 3: I don't think you remember the last time we.
- 38:25Speaker 2: Mentioned you mentioned the clan.
- 38:31Speaker 3: It's a regular thing, just like.
- 38:38Speaker 1: That was Mike santagram. During Indian Wells, Lena Spidelina had
- 38:49Speaker 1: another amazing run deep into the tournament. She got she rules.
- 38:55Speaker 3: I would love her Miami. She's in such a good form.
- 38:58Speaker 2: Is that your prick? You haven't bets? That's your dream?
- 39:01Speaker 5: Yeah, that's my dream. That's what my heart says. Yeah,
- 39:07Speaker 5: she is, but a bit better.
- 39:08Speaker 1: Sorry she we had her in during the Australian Open. Uh.
- 39:20Speaker 1: She played great at the OS Open, like great at
- 39:24Speaker 1: Indian Wells. Came up against Rebecca in the semifinal, lost
- 39:28Speaker 1: in straight sets, but before that took out Chavan Tech
- 39:32Speaker 1: in the quarterfinal and playing great tennis. And I think
- 39:35Speaker 1: she will easily get to the second week of Miami.
- 39:39Speaker 1: We're lucky enough to get her in during the Australian Open.
- 39:42Speaker 1: So let's listen to that is center the best. I
- 39:47Speaker 1: just show up. Welcome back to Pod Labor Arena. Our

- 41:31Speaker 8: With doubles with?
