"The men's draw Matt? What are our highlights in the men's draw? Well, I think my big takeaway is that wrap on the doll, second seed has a better draw than top seed daniil Medvedev. Now obviously it's those two kind of they can get equivalent drawers. It's really random how it falls out. Medvedev's, I think, particularly if we're looking at sort of second week, which is always a dangerous thing to do, you know, three days out from the tournament starting, because that's what we did. All of these players could have crashed out by Monday or Tuesday, but Medvedev's potentially looking at a second week run to the title that includes curios, Oceania scene, sits a pass, and then the doll in the final, whereas you take the dolls sort of equivalent run and he's looking more like Schwartzman norrie per catch. So I definitely think Nadal is on the better half of the draw compared to Medvedev. And I think also Nadal's first week drawer, which is maybe even more relevant for him because we know he needs matches, we know he needs time on court isn't too bad either. He starts against an Australian wild card rinky higgie Qatar. And then he potentially plays panini or carat serving round two who, you know, maybe in years gone past, I would have thought, oh, that's really tricky, but I don't think they have the form at the moment. Hey, do you remember when Fabio Fognini beat Nadal here? The U.S. open. I mean, that was one of the shocks that this tournament has ever known. I remember watching that. It ruined my that ruined me for a week that much because I had to get up then I was doing day sessions that I had to get up for here and make up at 6 o'clock the next morning and I could not afford. It was a few days in, so I was already exhausted. I could not afford to be staying up and watching bloody tennis. But you can't go to sleep on that. There you come. Ruins me. Actually I think the dial has done a really good job of rebuilding his aura since that period when he lost to him and he lost to Luca pui here. You know, these are people that frankly just shouldn't shouldn't be beating the Dow when he's at his best. And look, Fabio Fognini is a mercurial, brilliant talent, but even so. The resilience of Rafael Nadal's aura is something that we could do a whole podcast on. I mean, obviously the resilience of Rafael Nadal physically, et cetera, is much talked about, but you're right. He's aura. The restoration of its luster. For a lot of people, once that aura is gone, wants to shine off it is gone. You can restore it a bit. But it's never quite the same as it was never quite like walking onto court. You know, three games up, which is sort of the cliched or a peak, isn't it? The things he's come back from, really. To restore it. I also think the way he's developed his game since then, you know, 2015, 2016 is the period we're talking about where his aura was a little bit diminished. He was losing a lot of close matches because he had the one the following year against Lucca puyi at the U.S. open, as you said, and that was 5 sets. So to lose two 5th sets. Yeah, it felt like a really damaging moment for it. But I just think, you know, end of the 2016 season, he was, he was humble enough to make the admission. Okay, I'm going to bring in Carlos Meyer into my coaching team, and I think the way he's developed his game since then, I think he hits his backhand so much better. It's a flatter harder. He gets more out of his serve. He's more willing to come forward. I just think practical the guy that won the Australian open final this year is a different player. Yeah. To the one that was losing those matches. The way he just went, okay, none of what I normally do is going to work today. So 400 drop shot. All the time. Those all time greats. They've all done a bit of that, haven't they? Because Federer did his reinvention of his backhands and became very attacking. And he changed the size of his racket head. I mean, and I think Djokovic feels slightly more subtle, but he always used to be the flexible backboard, and he feels like there's so much more to his game now than there was ten years ago. Yeah. Well, he's brought going even as a witch on, which is obviously very clear. So it's a lot more out of his serve, but he's also he's tried things that didn't what he brought Todd Martin on back in the day, didn't he change his service motion a bit and that really didn't work and he sort of rode back from that change but he's always been trying things never stood still. And you're right, that does differentiate the greats. 6 minutes early? It's four 54 p.m.. What on earth? So far. Oh, it's like clockwork. Well, it is. It is. Consistently wrong. Why? Are we reading too much into this little run of defeats from Medvedev into this tournament? Oh, it's like a Liverpool, isn't it? I think we might think. You know, who's he lost to this last couple of weeks?

"But he would be to play her catch her couch would have to be set to pass. That would be the quarterfinal her catch. It's a pass. Her catch hasn't lost Soviet at this point. And he's looking pretty good, isn't he? I mean, I know he played golf and Gotham wasn't a 100% fit today, but she hasn't done this here. I think it is that he does look pretty good until he plays someone better. I think that is sort of her catches thing. If anybody else would like to propose another thing. You did beat Medvedev at Wimbledon this year last year, didn't he? But and he's had his Miami run, but I know what you mean. I don't necessarily trust her catch to sustain that level against the best players. Her catch will likely play caspar rude next to his currently a set and a break up on Lorenzo, sonic ago, stiff Stefano sits a pass will play the winner of tonight's match between holger and Hugo Gaston, which is going up against the football. Down at the bottom of the drawer, daniil Medvedev faces Marin Cilic now who ended Gil Simon's French Open career today and was the only participant in his episode of this is your life. In comparison to tsonga, that was like a sort of a single rather than a double album, wasn't it? It was over in a blink. And possibly a relief for some viewers. I think they really wanted him to lose in the first round on Simon Mathieu, so there wasn't the sort of direct visual. You know, it was the exact same quote, the weather was the same. It was all in the same place. It was just shitter. It was the same trophy, little trophy thing, which is really classy. It's a little cross section of the court that they give them with the clay and top dressing on top and then goodness knows what geology is beneath that. My dad's going to text me now and he listens to this and tells me exactly tell me exactly what geology is beneath it. That's a really nice touch, Emily meres movie was there. It was all lovely and had there not been the direct comparison three days ago of everyone Joe for Tonga's ever met coming out with custom made t-shirts with his face on. It would have felt lovely today. But nobody had any t-shirts, which you'll see mom's face on. I think songa said a dangerous precedent now because he's a very, very fine player, but you've got one slam so now we get one of these, the big three big four. When they're going to retire, they have to go bigger than Jo Wilfried tsonga, doesn't have to book an entire section of court time for the interviews and the send off. I mean, there's an argument to say that roger fenter invented an entire tournament to enable that he could have the perfect send off. Well, the labor cup. Yeah. That's going to go on for ten years. So he could do it. I think that's going to be playing when he's 50. The Simon max was obviously, it was no contest, but the fact that it followed corneille meant that there was a period in the day there where French players on chatre lost 21 games in a row..

"He played the match of the week previous to that did Carlos alcaraz 6 7 6 three 7 6 over mere mere catch manovich he by the way is shaping up to be a serious player from now onwards I think we need to reframe who we think may make its manovich is maybe we were in the process of doing that but it's time to confirm that Hubert her catch got the better of Daniel Medvedev in that matchup we were previewing on our last podcast, Matt's written fish on a sofa next to this bullet point. We'll need to. Maybe we should just explain that now, get that out of the way. You obviously missed this quote. I mean, it feels like it does need explaining if you haven't seen it, but yeah, that was that was daniil Medvedev's description of himself. During that match, he said he was like a fish on a sofa because he was just cramping so much and his body was sort of contorting, he does not enjoy the heat and humidity, I think, Medvedev. He's only really seen him look like that before in heat and humidity. Do you remember last year Miami? He was walking like an old man, wasn't he? With his cramping, we saw him at the Tokyo Olympics really struggling as well. That is an area he doesn't like. We've obviously subsequently found out that he's been he's been struggling with a hernia and he's had a hernia operation. He's out now for a potentially a couple of months, so I'm sure that was contributing as well. But yeah, fish on a sofa feels like I was trying to find the words for what Medvedev looked like on that call and of course Medvedev himself came up with the words that that feels like a quote that we'll be going back to. Yes, and of course he did the dead fish celebration when he won the U.S. open last year. So yes. Whether intentional or not, he's got a theme. Fish is going to become his thing. But anyway, back to Carlos alcaraz, who we're not going to be able to avoid hyperbole and bandwagon jumping and all of it because I think he's changing the sport. I really do. Everything that I said on Thursday looks like he sent from the future rinse and repeat. He's different. He's something else. I said that changing the sport line in one of our tweets this week and got a little bit of pushback and I was thinking about why I think he's changing the sport and it seems to me like a combination of the way he's playing. You know, in terms of his combination of speed and power is not something I remember seeing, especially from an 18 year old. You know, you think when I think when the doll came along and look, I'm really trying not to compare him to Nadal all the time, but when the doll came along, he didn't have just got an outcry can get that serve up to a 140 miles an hour. He didn't have a backhand like alcaraz has got, he's just, he's got awesome power on both wings and this incredible speed. So the playing style is different. But also to be getting these results at this age, I thought the days of teenagers winning big on the ATP tour were pretty much over and I thought they were pretty much over with Nadal and with Djokovic and with Marion with del Potro. Those players have taken the physicality to a level which is just so extreme now. And we've seen a lot of talented players come along in the last 15 years or so, but it's always taken them time. Look at team, the way he's physically built up. Look at, look at the way Medvedev has sort of become physically strong and figured out his own game. And alcaraz is the first player. I can remember since Nadal married Djokovic, who's just immediately come along and just look like a problem. He just looks like a problem for the best players in the world already and yeah, those are the ways for me, which I would sort of justify this idea of him changing the sport and that is what I believe right now is what we're seeing from him. Well, I mean, there are lofty words, but I mean, that's how he makes you feel when you're watching him. Because he kind of he's got bits of all those big three. And I'm not saying he is them all combined, but he's got parts of their game. In his from the obvious comparisons with Nadal because of being Spanish because of the manner in which he carries himself the way he looks like he's been plugged into the mains from ball one. The exuberance. The perseverance that he showed during those matches that you've just described in which he was down. He was a set down against Miami cuts manovich, who was playing out of his mind. He was wonderfully impressive, and yet he still got the better of him. And in that final, against Casper Ruud, he was four one down, and he was four one down a couple of times in these matches and just not quite hitting his straps. He was a bit erratic. He maybe it was a bit of nerves, maybe he's going for too much. I think he does that occasionally early on. But there's something special about him inside, where he, he'll just tap into whatever it is. And once he then goes flat out, he's got a sort of foot to the floor speed, that nobody else seems able to live with. And I saw it in parts in the match against Casper Ruud, there was a side to side match where rude, who is fast, he is quick around the core, and he is, he has got blistering power on the ground strokes, and he can he was going toe to toe. And yet still the final shot is one one by Cass, Carlos alcaraz, because he just has that little extra. And then he's got the ability to contort himself a little bit like Djokovic does. He seems so supple. He's much more live than an adult. He's much more physically built like a Djokovic, and then you've got somebody who's prepared to serve in volley. At this age, 18..

"In terms of the tennis, where should we start? Should we start with daniil Medvedev becoming the new men's world number one? Because that kind of that covers off both goings on in Acapulco, where Rafael Nadal has continued his I'm going to say this a couple of times, unbeaten starts to the 2022 season. And I can't believe it. Unbeaten start to the 2022 season. We haven't even gotten clay yet. No, or no, I know. It can only go downhill on clay. How is that? How is that the case? Is it 23 and O? 15. Where have I got 23 from? As I was saying it, I thought it sounded a lot 15 and all on hard. You've got to miss the favorite friend Indian Wells Catherine. Is that what's already thinking ahead two weeks? Well, he's unbeatable, David. He's categorically statistically unbeatable. So that's what happened in Acapulco. And in Dubai, Andrei Rublev won the title. Extraordinarily so. As I said in the final. So neither Medvedev nor Djokovic featuring in either of those finals, but it was beating Djokovic 6 four 7 6 in Dubai, his second victory over Novak Djokovic, he's two over Djokovic now, both times. Djokovic has been the world number one at the time of their meeting. It was that defeat from Djokovic that ensured that daniil Medvedev would become the new men's world number one today. And yes, it might have felt inevitable for a little while now even Djokovic didn't he last week sort of nodded to that and said, look, it's going to happen eventually. And when it does, he'll be worthy of it. And yet still it's seismic, isn't it? It is a drum roll please changing of the God. Have I gone too early on changing of the guard? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I think you have. But yet, look, it's a massive moment, isn't it? What's the stat matter in terms of Medvedev breaking in and being the one that there was a guard, David, the guard was the big four, and it has changed. But I just feel like they're going to call me. No one the phrase isn't permanent changing of the guard. Okay. Yes, I remember dev is the first man outside of the big four to be world number one since Andy Roddick. On the 1st of February 2004, when you were how old Matt, I was 7. So if that's not a changing of the guard, I don't know what is. I'll give you that one. Okay, well, is he going to hang on to it then? Is it going to be a permanent changing in the guard? We'll know that Djokovic get back to world number one. I would expect so. Personally, I don't think he can't play the next two events. He's far from done. I'm not saying he's done. I'm saying the amount that he can participate imminently is in question at best. And going anywhere, okay. Hang on, do you think the doll's going back to world and the war? This is ludicrous, all of this is ludicrous. What do you think, Matt? What do you think, Catherine? Come on. I think they will get it back from him. Yes, I think. They both, they probably. Yeah, I could see the doll getting number one this season. And I could see Djokovic in next year, a couple of years. Getting it back again. In terms of his aims for what he thinks he can still do in the sport, I think very much aligns with that. Are you saying that Daniel Medvedev is, is he going to be yevgeny kafelnikov? Is that what you're saying? With his world number one, David? Well, he got to world number one. I think in about 1999 and he then proceeded to lose in the first round of his next 6 tournaments. So, you know, it's one of those things. And around that time, there were a lot of changes of the world number one spot. I think pat rafter might have had it for about two weeks or two weeks, 6 days. I had it for 6 days, which Medvedev is guaranteed to pass. I think Medvedev guaranteed to have it for three weeks. It's like that there's the thing in for U.S. presidents where they surpass there was a president back in the day called William H Harrison that was only president for 40 days or something. Think he got ill or, you know, got consumption or something that people in the olden days got. And it's a thing when you when you surpass William H Harrison, so you're not the shortest lived president of the United States. Yes, folks, I learned that from veep. That's how I brow. Okay, so staying with staying with the sort of events that led to Daniel Medvedev becoming world number one. Novak Djokovic losing to Ye xiv, are you saying then that Djokovic Djokovic just has a Vasily problem and this is nothing to do with the form of Novak Djokovic. I mean, I know we just don't have enough data to go on on the form and we're not going to get any for a while because he won't be able to play Indian Wells or Miami but what's going on there? Why did he lose to you vesle? I think he does have a bit of a vaseline problem. He played so well first and foremost would be what I would say about that match. I think a lot of the credit goes to vaseline. He was in a position to win an even more comfortably and he got broken back when he was serving for the match for a 6 four 6 four win. And then I thought, okay, Djokovic has got him now. He's had that moment. He's fought back. He's got this incredible crowd on his side and yet vaseline did not go away. In fact, he upped his game from there and played the most wonderful tiebreak. He reminds me game style wise. I mean, I know he's been around a while. Actually, we've seen him play, but we haven't actually seen him play that much recently because he had COVID last year, which set him back. He was involved in a car accident as well, which took him a while to recover from. So he hasn't actually been on the scene much recently. He's dropped outside of the top 100. But game style wise, he does remind me a bit of manna Reno. In that he's got an incredibly flat backhand that he can just lean on and it can be quite deceptive with how hard he's hitting the ball, and yet he's a much bigger man than manner, you know, he's got additional power..

"So folks, there are two days remaining of the Australian open and we now know our final lineups because along with the women's singles final tomorrow night of ash bharti against Danielle Collins, we also now have a men's singles final to look forward to of Raphael Nadal against daniil Medvedev repeat of the 2019 U.S. open final that I think it's fair to say, we all quite enjoyed. Today's two semifinals weren't quite the thrillers and epics that David law promised you yesterday. But they were good. They were good David. I don't think you're going to be asked for refunds. But there might be the odd grumble here and there. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I thought bertini would make more of a fight of the first match early on. I didn't expect him to come up against an Adele quite like that and I didn't expect bertini to just look so ordinary for the first two sets. So I expected a 5 setter there and I was surprised that sits the best faded, the way he did, but actually I also think that Medvedev forced him to fade because he was absolutely incredible at the end, but there were two really good semifinals that I enjoyed immensely, and they do set up. The most wonderful prospects for a final, because I do have very happy memories of that 2019 U.S. open final. I remember you and I after that having what's that thing the honey juice while we recorded it? I mean, that was that's a memory. I'm looking forward to getting back to if we go there again, but that was an incredibly draining but exhilarating final and I have really the only downer of that particular podcast was that Matt wasn't with us, but I do remember it very fondly. So if we get anything like that on Sunday, I think we're in for a treat. And I think that that is definitely possible. Yeah, and look, we will talk about that final and everything that is on the line because we are aware that there's quite a lot on the line in that final. We know that there's a big old men's Grand Slam race going on and we love to talk about that. Everyone in tennis loves to talk about that. But let's deal with the semifinals from today first let's start with Nadal's victory over Mateo bartini 6 three, 6 two three 6 6 three. I mean, the first words I've written in here in the agenda are Nadal is incredible. I'm going to struggle for words, I think, a little bit for Nadal's achievement this fortnight. And for most of this semifinal, he did fade physically and that is going to be a feature I think of how we all preview the final. I think that's a worry, his foot pain grows as a match goes on. That seems to be pretty evident, but the tennis he played for two sets was utterly sublime. It was just heyday Rafael Nadal tennis and full disclosure. This is not a prediction that I need to offer after the fact, but when that match was when it was decided that that much was to be played under the roof and there was no choice in that department because today has been a day of weather folks. I got sort of detained or we shouldn't use that word. It's Australian open. Lockdown can't really use that word these days either. I ended up hostage to this storm that came into Melbourne today. And I couldn't leave the house. It was that serious. The trams are all haywire, I couldn't get an Uber. I tried to get some food delivered and it kept on getting canceled because the roads weren't safe when I finally managed to get out to get into the tennis midway through the second semifinal. It felt like escape from Alcatraz, it really did. It was a really, really epic moment. But anyway, I watched the first semifinal with the storms swirling around me getting increasingly worried about the materials that are Airbnb is built from because it really sounded like we were about to spring a leak any minute. But yeah, the roof was closed at the start of the match. And it seemed likely all along that it would remain closed. And I feared for Rafael Nadal, when I heard that, quite frankly, mat. Yeah, I wasn't sure what to make of it just because yes, Nadal said himself, I'm more of an outdoors guy. In his interview with Jim Courier afterwards and generally he has preferred playing outdoors. I think he's only ever won one indoor hard court title in his career. That was all the way back in Madrid 2005, I believe. But then again, I think it was good for Nadal that it wasn't hot. And that feels like a weird thing to say because traditionally Nadal has enjoyed the heat, but we saw how much he faded physically due to the heat against Shapovalov. He actually did say in the Spanish portion of that press conference after the Shapovalov match, that it was heat stroke that he was experiencing. And so I felt like it was perhaps a benefit for him that he didn't have to contend with that at least today. And then when the match started, I obviously had David's words in my ear, I was expecting a classic. I'd been sold a classic an epic. Matt's asking for a reef of all the people, David, it's Matt that's asking for a refund. I was feeling like a bit of a fraud, I have to say it 6 three 6 two. Well, I was, you know, I was with you, David. I thought that bertini would travel Nadal and sort of no end from the start. And actually, what those first two sets revealed was that it was just way more of a matchup problem for him than I had realized. I mean, obviously we spoke about the backend being sexual weakness and such an area for Nadal to target. But it was pretty alarming for bertini. How much of a weakness it was? How easily Nadal was finding that backend and just the pattern of the match was just all in the doll's favor through those opening stages. I felt really sorry actually for Matteo baron 'cause it was like you know been stripped naked out there. Imagine sort of the one thing that you're one weakness being prodded at, you know, by bully, it's like, you know, it's like when you're sibling those exactly the thing that you're most embarrassed about, and that's the thing that they make fun of you for, you know. Must have felt like that from a terrible team because everyone knows he knows. And he knows that everybody else knows that the backhand is a massive relative weakness as much as it's improved, and, you know, Nadal, he is the master at exposing a weakness. He's extraordinary at it. And he was exposed out there for two sets. Yeah, and it reminded me of the conversations we've had about bertini in the past and buried a little bit actually because we've known he's got this weakness, but he has managed to overcome it and do really well in slams recently obviously Wimbledon final last year being the highlight. But we have said before that the big four really have sort of brought in an era where you can't have a weakness. You know, song goes backhand was always a bit of a weakness. Burdick's movement Ferrer's lack of a weapon. There was a reason why these guys didn't break through in the biggest matches against them and baritone, he sort of fits into that mold. He's got he's got strengths, but he has a weakness. And I thought we did see that dog just exposed it today. And also, Nadal, his own tennis was unbelievable in those first couple of sets. The way he was hitting his forehand, I thought his backhand as well that was almost like it was a bit of a troll because he was hitting his backhand so well. Set up points and just use it to get his forehand into play. It was vintage Nadal for the first couple of sets. He wasn't adhering to carrillo's carrillo's first law today was immaterial. No, the laws are hold your serve, hide your weakness and have a weapon. Now on a good day, obviously, he can do all three of those. We've.

"Is going to be the one to continue it. Well, I know that he's taking is taking it upon himself, Mike, just for you. It is a fact that whenever we see one, we all celebrate. But when daniil Medvedev served and volleyed behind it under a big time. It was a second serve and volley on match point, wasn't it? Tremendous. Yeah. Straight past him. Yeah, I mean, stupid, but okay, question number three from my key says if the labor cup were to get rid of the Europe versus world format, how would you redesign the two teams? For me it would probably be the next gen players versus the old God with an age cutoff. Of around 28 or perhaps champions players with at least two majors versus everybody else. And he's popped a little smiley face on the end of this question. He's on a wind up, isn't he? He is. Look, this is not really the question. But for me, the answer is any significant format change which doesn't incorporate women is silly. It's such an obvious. Billie Jean agrees. That's the equivalent of in parliament when they will hear. Billie Jean, yes, yes, it's all good. It's all good. Quiet. It was the postman. But he changed. Billie Jean, quiet. Billie Jean. Oh, now there's a fox on the tele. Quiet. Good girl. Okay. I mean, yes, you could do one of those for much changes, Mike suggested, maybe there would be interesting. But why wouldn't you just make it a mixed event and make it a lot better sorry, Mike? That's not a specific question. If you were going to get rid of Europe against world, is there something else that would work? Let's assume that also, at the same time, I'm going to bring women in and make it that. Is there a because I must admit I've really struggled with this. I've been thinking about it since I read the question last night. And I can't. I'm struggling with it in terms of coming up with a format that I would care about. That's the problem. You need to, they were trying to get the equivalent of Europe against the U.S. in Ryder Cup. Something that and look, if somebody had told me before I discovered the Ryder Cup that Europe against the United States was going to be a thing that I would care about, I would have been a bit surprised about that in a way, I think, because it's not the most obvious colors to now your affections towards and your loyalties towards. I don't think. Because I've always it's always to me being Great Britain or England. As an English person myself I just don't know what do you think, Matt? Well, I mean, the labor cup has gone down the route of trying to be more and more legitimate in terms of the ATP claiming to head to heads and getting that designated spot in the calendar and having qualification scenarios, whatever. And I think maybe for the long term, if they do want it to be a rider type of N, those are the sort of things the sort of steps they needed to take to make it like that to solidify its place in the tennis calendar. I personally just think it should go all in with the exhibition route and just be a fun, all star event that should be men and women absolutely. And there should be a draft of picking teams and just the whole thing, really embrace entertainment, I suppose, more than anything. We don't need the labor car, but it can be a nice addition to the season. Instead of how I end up thinking about it. And yeah, I suppose there is room to do quirky things like young players versus older players or a team of lefties versus a team of varieties or a team of single hand as versus a team of double hand. It's like you could mix it up every year. I don't know, but just personally I think it should embrace those exhibition elements or rather than do what it has done, which is try and become more and more legitimate. Look, I might be in the complete minority there. But no, I just think that would be fun. Yeah, and that's something we say every time we review a labor cup, is an exhibition is not a dirty word. Some people won't be interested in anything other than to Grand Slam, ranking points, tennis, but plenty are, and that's great. That's great. There's absolutely a market in a place where exhibition tennis make yourself the ultimate exhibition. Love the idea of a draft. Really, really love the idea of a draft. That would be something that could set it apart. Yeah, I mean, I don't think there's a bad suggestions Mike that you may come. But you're going to come up against the issue with the fact that it is not automatic entry. It's, I mean, I know they've sort of fudged some kind of legitimate entry criteria, haven't they? But we know it's an invitational event with appearance fees. So trying to create that sort of format in an invitational scenario next gen versus old God, what are you going to have all the next gen players, absolutely queueing up to play labor carp aren't you? You know, big big check guaranteed, but are you are you going to get enough of the Djokovic isn't keen on it? Is if you're going to have old guard, does that work without Djokovic? I'm not sure. I'm not sure that it does. And if Djokovic chooses not to play, then instantly the whole, the whole event is sort of delegitimized, isn't it? Yeah, or champions versus.

"Be a 100% on definitely don't provoke the public on purpose. Matthew, when you play a tennis match, you're alone there. There is 20,000 people. Sometimes for you, sometimes against you, sometimes 50 50. And if I do something to provoke them, it's actually not to make them mad or sad or against me. It's something that I feel in this moment. We see it in every sport. Yeah, I don't see anything too bad in it. But of course, even from some of your what you remember. So for example, what happened in Wimbledon, that was not nice. And I regret it. But again, it was pure emotions. It was it was not something fake or something where I think about something. It was pure emotions, which I regret and it was not beautiful, not good. But that's also how you learn. You make mistakes and you learn and I think the tough part for the young generation because we had roger and Rafa who are I go with my words, they're probably the, I want to say, one of the most fairest sportsman in all the history of the sport, and they were both playing together and they both won an amazing titles. And so now when somebody in tennis is not like this, people tend to not like them and say, how come you're not like roger and Rafa? Well, guess what everybody is different. And so I think the moment when they're retired and they're going to be new fans who didn't see a roger and Raphael life, that's when it's going to come back to where people are going to like other characters than this. Pretty long answer, no. It was a long answer, but daniil we loved it. Yeah, because not only was it sort of funny, but it was proper introspection and self reflection and self awareness, understanding that I'm really pleased that he referenced the Wimbledon moment as something that he regrets because whilst we love all this ham and games and bravado and in the face of the crowd, I do love all of that. I did not enjoy seeing him throw money in the direction of the umpire and suggests that he was on the take, you know, and things like that. There's some things that Dan are Medvedev has done that have been appalling in the past. And he needed to be called out on them and he needs to own those as well. And he did. He absolutely didn't that answer. And he understands that sometimes he's got it wrong. But I do like the idea that this all comes from within based on what is happening in the moment. And because if you remember when we had the whole U.S. open thing when we came out of that, I thought maybe we'll never see that again. Maybe he'll maybe the fact that all of the all of us are bringing attention to him will make him stop doing it and make maybe he'll realize that it's a quieter life corporate wise to just follow the lead of people like Federer Nadal have a quiet life, et cetera and just take the cash. Not to say that they've done that, but that's their brand. This is him. This is who he is. And he just does it from the heart. He says, and from the moment. And I much prefer that. I much prefer somebody who just for better or worse goes with it. Absolutely. I mean, look Federer and Nadal have been a joy. Their sportsmanship is unparalleled, the nature of their rivalry is unique. And that's who they are, isn't it? And makes you feel warm and fuzzy and it's wonderful and will go down as one of the most special things this sport has ever had. But I can't think of anything worse than spending the next ten years watching two bit Nadal Federer impersonators or wannabes. That is they are unique. That was special. I don't want everybody to be trying to be like veteran adult at all. And Medvedev gets that. And look, he's able to do this because it is him. It's in him. I also don't want to watch people trying to be Daniel Medvedev. His message is just be yourself really and own it, I think. And that's the, that's the thing to take for this. I don't want to see a load of people go out there creating a cringe fest situation where they're trying to do. You've got to have a certain charm to pull off what Daniel Medvedev does, not everybody's going to be able to do that. But whatever your thing is, do that thing. Don't try to be Roger Federer. Because there's only one of them. And actually, I remember when Federer was coming on the scene, it was around the time where there were people like Leighton Hewitt at the top and cofounder COVID gone by the wayside pretty much by them. But there were a lot of other players around and the conversation was always where are the characters in tennis? There are no more characters anymore. And I don't know what is at what is a character. It's just such a generic term. And I think people always referred back to well, it was Borg and McEnroe and I'm thinking, well, first up, bork, never said a word. You know, is it somebody who has a round someone or is it somebody who looks just really cool like the onboard didn't everybody flocked around him? And he won everything in the world. I find it a very lazy conversation generally. And I just like the fact that, as you say there, Medvedev is raw. He is what he is. And but at the same time, he's happy to refine himself a little bit when he thinks he's got it really wrong. And that's not say you won't get it wrong again, but I don't mind him losing his mind on a clay court in Rome and sort of saying he's going to tank any second because.

I guess we've talked. There's a lot of stats baynes thrown about in the records that are being broken if meets the inexperience of of a radikal new.

Watching was that serena was a conversation that the beginning but at the end nylons mentioned her and i find it really interesting if she was sitting at high watching this guy.

I really don't you know I think that's such a personal thing for her for where she's at in her life and what she wants to do and we've known for a while that she's she's really been pushing the try you know. Break this record and get one more on the on the books so that she can. She can be the greatest of all time not that. She's not the greatest of all time. Necessarily but yeah. I think that's a really hard question. I have no clue what she's gonna do at this. Point really hardens. And no and where she's at with her with her mind and her training she willing to do you think players stop for one of two reasons. They stop either. Because it's physical. You can play anymore. You have an injury or something that keeps you from competing or you stop because you mentally you. Just don't have the the desire the commitment anymore to do the work that it takes to be ready to play a grand slam and all the other tournament you have to play to prepare and do that. And so i think for her. It's a little bit of where she's out with both of those things you know and trying to figure out if she wants to put in the time and the effort so it'll be interesting. It'll be interesting to see in terms of the women's game. We've talked about the death in the game for a long time. And i think these youngsters i'm that have just come through. Have even you know.

I mean i was kind of pulling for medvedeva was playing so well but if you think about it the thing that really like what. You're saying todd. I totally agree with you. Know it seems that that novak didn't quite have the legs that he normally has. But also i think the emotional strain of all the stuff and we saw that early in the second set when he had that and and then the crowd The music started playing and they ended up having to play to and novak snap at that point in the match and he really kind of like went over the edge there and never quite got himself completely back. I think that was such a vital moment in the match and it showed like where he was with the emotional aspect of with everything that was going on and then again in the third towards the end when he sat down on that one change over in the crowd started chanting his name and he had the towel over his head in the end. It was actually in tears. He was in tears with the sense. That you know the crowds actually behind me. And everything and i think those two things really showed the degree of tension and emotion. That was carrying. And i think that had a lot to do with it as well. I don't i don't you know as as much as an ice man and he gets through all these matches you know.

Because i just thought it was just a really great shift in the men's game as you mentioned those youngsters alcoa's sierra and just saying that generation medvedev slam but then also saying those younger kids beneath really show that mark their foot on the men's to but yes. I'm really good story. Lines there from the us open. Hey brad at the coalface of the country breath.

"I do think you can. You can just stop that happening if you hit the ball hard enough yet. That's that's pretty much my assessment. I i very briefly hovered over her when we were doing predictions. Because she's in a very open section of the drool and because as you said she'd had really strong start the season a couple of titles one in australia one in saint petersburg so i knew she had some form but then i looked up her form on clay and there was nothing to speak of She hadn't won back to back matches on clay all season as david said she took a heavy defeat to madrid. I mean everyone did to be other than other than bath to you. Pushed through in the final. She also lost to producer in row. Of that and jesse pooh-poohed was another one who was able to through her. So i so. I didn't go with casino in the end but my goodness she was good. Today she is she's the embodiment of sort of no two shots. The same to boost the same. The variety within a point is remarkable. You know it's a moomba one. It's of flat back. The next it's short angle next. It's dropped shop. It's a slice forehand. It's a furry four which he can do everything. And i thought she was really really brilliant against banks today and that result was so much more about kazakina being brilliant than it was bank chicks having having a bad day just to go back. Some what did you say. Jesse peculiar is that. Is that what we're supposed to call her now. I think i did say that I don't know i'm feeling bad for sack now. Is that a thing you've heard or i'm sure i must must've heard it genuine question. Is this a gen jenny. Jennifer brady situation said Sebastian called situation. There's increasingly many of them. And i appreciate some clarity on fronts. No you're right to pick me up on it. I think she is still jessica. I think i've lapsed into over familiar. Oh i didn't mean to pick you up. And i was genuinely genuinely curious about about what we should be that anyway. Yeah it is an interesting section. If the drowsy the biggest women's much to the day involved serena williams and we'll we'll talk about that and look ahead a little bit next next match against daniel collins which i'm very much earful. But that section of the door today we had a win for capturing senior against Could matoba seven five in the third facinia over there and she trailed by how much in the deciding set. I think one point she was five two down and she certainly was match point down at five three in the deciding set. I mean that match had everything. And basically when i say everything i mean agra because it was it was wonderful i. I wasn't watching it live when it happened. I saw people talking about it. And i went back to watch the moment. Sin janka vogue lose a set and four three up and couldn't over served wide and you saw the line judge behind sydney aqaba. Put out her arm to say that it was out and presumably called it out as well but you couldn't really hear that because senio cova heads grunted when she'd returned the ball but the point carried on and khuda over one it and senac said well the jags coded out. I'm pie. Why didn't you stop the point. Why didn't you check the mark. Why should i have to stop the point. If the line coach has could it out anyway at a big argument ensued between both of them and it really affected of for a long period. I thought she'd gone to be honest. She lost the second-set when she came back at the start of the third. She had the supervisor out and she was talking to him. And then couldn't overtook that lead as i described in the in the third set only for santiago to come storming back and win it. I mean it was. It was a match of great defiance from her. I thought kind of against all those odds with everything. I think in our own head conspiring against her. She sneaky good tanaka and in that section of the draw with her. I'm talking big. Big section couture. Even we've got one russia. Hey was brilliant. Today she beat she beat hominy. time In just her second match on the philippe shatri cool which is extraordinary. A for former finalists. Have we been underestimating. Marcus have under asia e including in the conversation. The thing is it's never been a question of how potential her ability she showed that that year she reached the final running across and i always think of in the match. She played in rome before that. Intra interestingly enough against catholic qena when they played just the most wonderful demonstration of variety between them in a match. The started with zero spectators senecal amputated. And then they all ended up just sort of walking on buying getting interested in this match and suddenly it was like there were two italians going head to head. Such was the interest in the match. But i think if you look at the rest of the last year and a half or whatever vandross has done nothing really. I mean i think. She's had injuries to but she she's lost heavily to people that you would expect to be able to push in the last however however many months the matches up saying tournaments have seen. You've you've looked to these lopsided scorelines and not and so. I just thought she doesn't have any form and i think you'll feel like you've got to have some form coming in but my word. Can she turn it on when she's when she starts to feel good and because she's a lefty with with those angles that provides and she's an elaborate one as well really sort of loopy. Groundstrokes dropped shots as well. It's it's a really tough cocktail for opponents to deal with a thing when she's playing well so a lot of it's in her her court so to speak i think she's also possibly slightly overlooked because she drew eagles fan tech in the first round of the french open last yet so she's actually lost to the eventual champion. The last two french opens so it. It has taken a great performance to beat her. It right on garros something. David said she seems to grow and she arrives it on garrison. Yeah she's she's look good so far and given as we're talking about she's in this section of the draw i think we we have to be talking about well in that section with her is power but dosa he wanted date who in love. Overdone niche definite is emoji on on paula. Dosa so that means that one of the sek senio cover so hysteria doric kina pallone polonia could be carolyn garcia today. Von gracia but dasa ananta. Bogdan will be semi semi-finalist at roland. Garros yeah we've already had to stop this out several billie jean inserts. We're gonna plow through this one. I think who's going to be the semifinalist of those women. He's names a read out of. I think i'm going to say by those. I think she is in the best form. I mean i know. I've talked about kazakina playing brilliantly from russia the dangerous that the next on my list but i just felt good about but those are coming into this tournament. And as you said. She's booed as the way through who today. So i'm going to stick with her herzog by the way did they watered down medvedev. Us open moment. Medvedev's the energy you gave me. Tonight's she thanked the french crowd for supposing caroline garcia and getting her fired up to come back in the in the first match sadly it was way more polite than medvedev but the message is the same david who if those names is making the semi final i do think vandross chevik could do it i do think she could again but i i agree with you. I mean she's the form player of the year of those are probably. It'd be between those two for me. I would say yeah i k- i would. I would have to agree..

Australian Open 2021: Novak Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev Meet for the Title

"The crusade for the men's singles crown comes to an end tomorrow. And when the undisputed king of rod laver arena novak djokovic takes on russian number-one neil medvedev the world number one djokovic. Gunning for a history-making ninth championship in melbourne. While the russian authors seeking his twenty first consecutive win and first major title to preview the match. I'm joined by not edwards and commentator. Nick mcardle nick at the start of in fact two weeks before this we had you on the show podcast and you picked this matchup is that what led you to make that cole way back. Then let's say lucked out. Let's be honest that wasn't necessarily total. Total fluke made many wrong picks before but coming in you know we talk about the twenty one matches in a row for osaka. It's twenty in a row for daniil. Medvedev the non includes a win over novak djokovic close twenty twenty i think medvedev has really come into his own as someone expects himself not only to go deep. Atp events which we've seen the last couple of years but now to really do at at the grand slam so the drop laid out for him. I think he's played to each match to the level now. Can he bring an eight time. Grand slam australian open champ. Seventeen time major winner novak djokovic. Can he meet that level in a final thoughts really eighty s. What i love most is after medvedev bates itsy pass in that semi final is that he said stride away. All the pressure is on novak. He just load him up because he's plight fonsi before and never lost and it sorta. But i love how he just playfully. Put that out there and look. I think he'll come at. He'll show you'll be a little bit nervous. But i think he's just going to swing freely and that backhands i mean. Gosh they both have terrific backhands. But it's going to be like jock itch playing a twenty five year old vision of himself. It's going to be such an interesting match. I really count. Wait for the all similar. It can not just in court croff necessarily but as personalities both very eloquent and sort of personable somewhat chiming in front of the camera but they do have this white line fever as we know totally. I love those points that you've made and i think medvedeva's become more comfortable without. We sought the us open a couple years ago in the crowd. Really got against him and he used that as fuel which i think djokovic has have that in the past that in the past for sure for sure for jovic against rafa roger. He's felt that too. I really think that it is an opportunity for medvedev lake. Nona saying just swing for the fences and the scary thing is when he swings for the fences. Oftentimes the ball goes in. And i really think he's going to use that experience of beating novak in london last year at the atp finals. He'll really be geared up by that. Yeah i think so too. And i'm really looking forward to. I think the one area that novak can probably try to exploit daniels is that netplay. He's not very good. Let's let's be honest when it comes to netplay so if he can drawer him in a little bit and maybe draw that out. I think that puts pressure on daniel. Bit amid gets off to a flying start is going to be hard to stop.

Daniil Medvedev claims first Masters title in Cincinatti

"The world's best men's tennis player at least at this moment is deal medvedev going into last week. The twenty-three-year-old russian had made two consecutive tournament finals here in washington d._c. And then in montreal then this past week in cincinnati he we used huge first and second serves and really solid for hands back ends to beat world number-one electric in the semi finals and divvied viewed goffin in the final to win the biggest title of his career and move up to a career-high number five in the world behind only jovic rafael nidal roger federer and dominic team stephens hero. The eighth ranked stefanos citybus. Thank you is owen foreign his career against gets medvedev seats apostol ben rothenberg last week than medvedev plays sloppy adding. It's good sloppy. He can make you miss without your understanding how you just missed you. Miss shots that you don't mess. That's deep kind of. I watched medvedev in d._c. So i have a good sense of how well the dude is playing but i it didn't know before i saw a pretty oblique tweet on sunday. Is that three years ago medvedev was defaulted from a match on the second tier challenger tour. You're in a match which was played on clay and savannah georgia medvedev. Who was then ranked number. Two hundred sixty in the world was playing donald young young as a black american can player in the first at the chair umpire. A black woman in sandy franch went down to the court to check the ball mark on shot medvedev hit. There was close to the sideline. She called the ball out giving young the point which led medvedev mark. I know that you are friends. I am sure about it. After the game was over french called over tournament supervisor advisor medvedev was quickly defaulted for what the united states tennis association later referred to as questioning the impartiality of the umpire based on her race. There is unfortunately precedent for that incident in two thousand one. Australian lleyton hewitt claimed that a black line judge at the u._s. Open was calling foot-faults on him to to favor hewitt's black opponent american james blake. I've only been foot-faulted of one end. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Mate hugh had said look at him. I and you will tell me what the similarity is. Get him off. The court. Look at what he's done. Hewitt was not penalized during a match or afterwards the u._s. Us open tournament director brian earley who you may remember as the guy who came on the court during last year's yes open final when serena williams demanded to speak to the terminent director during her her conflict with chair umpire carlos ramos early ruled that there was no violation of quote grand slam code of conduct and that quote the evidence events was inconclusive as to the intent of mr hewitt's remarks to the chair umpire q._a. for his part said i come from a multicultural country. I'm not racial any way at all. Though hewitt didn't get sanctioned. John mcenroe called his on-court statement unforgivable. It has indeed followed hewitt for his whole career areo still hear people mention it when hewitt's name comes up medvedev's words have gotten less attention because they came in a minor league event probably also because he wasn't yet well known when it happened as far as i know medvedev has never commented on this <hes> the incident did get brought up in two thousand seventeen when at wimbledon medvedev eh opened his wallet and started throwing coins at the base of the umpire's chair to make a not so subtle point about the empires bias alleged bias towards his opponent it
