00:00 You mentioned Ben just a little bit.
00:02 How would you describe his style of play and how it fits with yours?
00:08 Yeah, I mean, he's just an extremely loud player.
00:10 I mean, he hits the ball big, serves huge.
00:11 I mean, he's serving pretty much 150s today.
00:13 I mean, he's throwing his whole arm at that thing.
00:15 He's so pumped up, you know, so he comes to the net.
00:18 He's got great volleys, really athletic.
00:20 I mean, he's a great player.
00:23 It's fun to watch.
00:23 You know, he's saying the loudest come on from the first point of the match to the last.
00:28 Because of it, he's young.
00:30 He's got a lot of energy.
00:31 So he's great for the sport.
00:33 It's cool to see a guy like that play.
00:35 And I mean, for me, I think, you know, I mean, I enjoy playing lefties.
00:40 I like playing lefties.
00:41 And I'm going to do a good job making him play a lot of balls and just make it,
00:45 try to make it a really tough night for him.
00:47 We'll see, you know, not going to lay out all the antidotes right here.
00:53 One of the things on the stadium is when you win, you hit the balls into the stands.
00:58 What is that ritual like?
01:01 And what is the goal when you're trying to fire balls into the stands?
01:04 I don't think I'm thinking about anything.
01:06 I was like, he's not, he's one.
01:08 I'm just trying to hit the wall as far as I can.
01:09 And I mean, someone catches a great, someone doesn't also great.
01:13 I don't really care how that boy, I guess.
01:15 No, I have one and I advance and ask this.
01:19 I mean, I'm sure a lot of people do it.
01:21 But I mean, for me, I mean, I usually do it automatically.
01:23 It just kind of happens.
01:24 The fourth round last year was Rafa.
01:27 He was that he was probably the favorite going in, you think this year, fourth round.
01:36 You're the favorite.
01:37 How do you compare those two experiences at night?
01:43 Is this night and day from a year ago?
01:44 I'm saying totally different, right?
01:46 I mean, I last year was like, goes like I want to get to the fourth round and play Rafa.
01:51 I was like, that was like my goal when I seen the draw.
01:54 Obviously one day at a time, but and then I was like, then we played and then obviously
02:00 it was all hectic from there.
02:02 But you know, now you're playing a match, you know, a guy.
02:04 They don't really know who's new on the tour and being a lot of guys and being a lot of guys pretty convincingly.
02:10 So you're like, kind of feel it out.
02:12 And I thought the good job taming him pretty well and you know, one pretty convincingly today, but
02:16 it's definitely a different seat to be in playing matches where,
02:20 you know, you're supposed to win in a major where you really want to do well and stuff.
02:23 So, but they handle it pretty well.
