00:00🎵
00:30That's so beautiful.
00:44Can you pull it a little bit more towards you?
00:46Yeah, yeah. Perfect.
00:49Sorry.
00:50No, you're okay.
00:52Alright guys, here we go.
00:58Okay, last one.
01:01I'm going to go in.
01:15Alright, I'm going in.
01:18Yep.
01:19Okay, so for all of you, can you explain just what it means to bring the trophy back to Team USA?
01:34Just throwing this off for you people.
01:37Yeah, it feels great to... I mean, I wasn't here, so that's why, you know...
01:41Like, you should answer the question.
01:42My bad, my bad, my bad.
01:46I don't know how I was supposed to bring it back. I wasn't here.
01:48Yeah, yeah. It's awesome to win it again.
01:51Obviously, the first year winning it, we were kind of disappointed last year, so...
01:57Yeah, it's just great to have a really good year this year, a great team.
02:02Kind of bring the energy back from the first year and win it again.
02:06And Coco, what about you? This is your first time lifting the trophy. How was it?
02:10Yeah, it means a lot. I think for me, you know, when they have events like this,
02:14I love to hear when, like, US wins it more times than anyone.
02:17So hopefully we're on the right path with that.
02:20And you also got MVP. How proud are you to get that title as well?
02:25I didn't know it was a thing, so I wasn't expecting anything like that.
02:29But probably the only time you know you can get MVP in tennis, so that's pretty cool.
02:33So I think it's something, one of the trophies I might actually leave outside the box.
02:39I love it.
02:41The US Open one too. I love that.
02:43The US Open one's in a safe.
02:45I like it, I like it.
02:47And Dennis, what a way to finish for you as well.
02:50So how was your overall experience this week?
02:53Yeah, I think it was just super special. Again, I've said it numerous times,
02:57just representing our country, being here the first year, the inaugural year,
03:01and having such a great time and not being able to bring it back.
03:04Last year definitely created a fire in the team.
03:07And having Fritz, Coco, such a special team and bringing it home,
03:12I think it was just an overall impressive week for both of them.
03:15And how proud are you of your teammates as well?
03:17Yeah, my teammates were awesome. I couldn't ask for a better team.
03:21And I'm glad they gave me the best setup I could possibly ask for.
03:25So Taylor, you got through some really tough matches this week.
03:28How pleased are you with your level?
03:31I'm pretty happy, I'd say, with how I'm playing.
03:33There's definitely parts of my game I wish I could be doing better,
03:36parts that I think I'm doing well.
03:39But I'm really happy with how I fought through a lot of those matches.
03:43I think it would be easy to mentally check out sometimes in those situations.
03:49So it's awesome. It's the first tournament of the year.
03:51I'm already digging through these matches.
03:56And Coco?
03:57Shoveling.
03:58Your level was incredible.
04:00Did it give you that extra boost having a team on the bench and all that support?
04:05Yeah, for sure.
04:06That was one of the reasons why I wanted to play this event.
04:08It looked so much fun the first year when they won.
04:11Just having, when you're down a break or something,
04:14and just having that positivity on the bench makes a lot of the difference.
04:19And even this boat right now is helping me get through this.
04:23How pleased are you with your level overall this week?
04:27Yeah, I mean, I can't ask for a better way to start the year.
04:30I'm really happy.
04:31I put in a lot of work on the off-season, pre-season.
04:34So I'm glad it's paying off and hopefully continue to pay off.
04:38And just a question for all of you.
04:40How does this rank in terms of career achievements up there?
04:43I think for sure, I mean, I only got to play one match.
04:48But overall, I think this is something that's going to be top of the memory bank.
04:52It's going to be tattooed on you.
04:53For sure, yeah.
04:54It already is.
04:55It already is.
04:56It's going to be for the second time.
04:57This is part two.
04:58So yeah, it's definitely up there.
04:59And I can only imagine how they feel.
05:01Perfect.
