speed in the top 20 um but in the second set he really served uh super good and uh Fritz actually at the end was able to return very well and broke him kind of out of the blue to take that second set

seminal here at the US Open as you see the stats there not a lot of trouble really for Taylor overall he just got broken early that was it h flashing that big forand winner one of six in the set down the line Taylor Fritz's unforced a wasn't looking too shabby team that last game [Music] we' gotten to speak about so many Americans at the 2024 US Open including this 26y old who is the embodiment of the American dream isn't he the son of more refugees from Sierra Le his family friend on their feet why not heed the fans on his side he said this would be EP it's what he wanted he wanted the tension of this moment he wanted this night match wanted to be toam come that's his dad on the phone Francis senior in the white shirt his mom pray lovely the play restaurant hours before Francis came in with his team to sit sit down and eat kind of hang out relax in his m was she came in at the same time she grabbed PL of food sat at a table away just gave the team their space she's there and support build and maintain the jtcc park was doing the overnight sh nursing he knew from a very early age what hard like [Music] [Music] also no pizza me [Music] Co he says been times it's felt like heed me over hey what's going on Nick welcome to the live stream okay I thought Fritz would win but looking at this it looks like he just over rallies and he serve um yeah uh I definitely thought that um well I mean it it was going to be a tight match you know uh because what plays really well um but I I'm surprised by the quality of he serve um Freight also has been serving very well um but uh yeah no I mean he's making a few more errors um but I I do feel like TFO is actually playing pretty well um to be honest so I'm kind of surprised by the quality of his game now it's not over okay Fritz held he serve pretty easily so I think he has a chance to win the fourth you know and and this good go to distance but thank you for asking the question um Serv high quality serves and returns with a nice variety nice variety oh wow wow okay hey Nick asked me a question Nick is here great Nick hope you had a good time in Vegas TFO hell deserve to love yes okay okay yeah yeah sorry again for the um um Mis misunderstanding or uh my inability to to uh read English um my apologies definitely I I um I should have should have read better your text but I'm glad you had a good time I'm glad you had a good time do you think that uh Fritz is gonna win he going to win that fourth set or do you think TFO is gonna is g to close it right there wow whoa TI TFO won the uh backend to back backend rally that's intentional clearly and it's working big fo has his name on the water okay okay that's interesting maybe an avot toast Nick yes still here H not go first when nervs comes into it if just keeps hitting rally balls I can't see see him winning yeah yeah um in a second set TFO was actually both of them were serving really well uh winning most of their um most of their uh service game very easily but then Fritz really stepped up on on like the second second serf took his chances um had a set point at 5'4 and then finally broke at 65 I really liked how he um he really took advantage of the very few opportunities he got so yes definitely he needs to um he needs to take uh take a few more um aggressive patterns here because TFO is definitely playing his game he is not like patiently waiting he knows that uh you know Fritz is overall a better player like a in the back um back of the court so yeah you know I think because if you look at the head-to-head um it it was 6-1 61 for Fritz Fritz actually won the last six matches they played against each other last time they played was in 2023 and uh akapulko which was a really long time ago but because they're friends very close friends they know each other very well um but the fact that TFO hasn't won against Fritz in a really long time he knew that uh you know going into into this match even though it is his preferred surface he had to um he had to perform he he was not going to win if he just plays you know an average game and so TFO is definitely doing what he's supposed to do which is really good serves really well um you know he's very aggressive coming into the coming into the net um and just taking his chances frit probably because he's been winning you know he probably um thought that he was just going to go into this match doing the same thing and then you know waiting to see how TFO was going to respond to it TFO has obviously performed very well so I think now now that he is up to sets to one Fritz is just gonna have to start adjusting U and start to uh think that um and if he doesn't do anything different he's going to lose that match so yeah you're abely absolutely right yeah he's going to have to uh he going to have to be aggressive here crushing taking more bigger cuts on the second serve especially because TFO second serve is actually um the slowest in the top in the top uh 20 um so taking more risks on the second serve um and and not just rally in the back of the Court waiting for waiting for tfos and force there yeah like that although I was not deep enough yep yeah I mean and you know it's GNA book the flight but I think it doesn't want to book the flight right now for tomorrow just because you know when he booked the flight at the last minute Nick it's just very expensive um little flight from New York to uh California I'm assuming I think Fritz is from San Diego or like car's bad double fults I think TFO needs to stay focused though really need to make sure that he um he keeps playing the way he's been playing so far can't let his guard down I like tfo's chances to win fr's mom was a top 10 player yeah uh that's what they said um I think I think Jim mentioned that um she reached the quarterfinal of a grand slam and Fritz finally got over the hump of the quarterfinal he's been in the quarterfinal in many Grand Slams finally got over the hump completely destroyed um Alex verf completely deserve to be um to be where he's at today it would be somewhat you know disappointing for him because if he loses today I have to say I have to say it would it would be sad it would be sad for him to lose today because um it is his first time you know making making it to the semifinal but also he he's been the the number one American for a long time and you know so not reaching the US Open final before you know TFO would be a bit sad and also uh he's leading TFO 6 to1 in their head-to-head so um I don't think that's you know that's playing in his head at least not right now he's focused on the match but but um it would definitely a big it would definitely be a big jum for tifo to uh to Leap Frog Fritz um in that way TFO is also going to win quite a lot of points um if he gets to the final I think the final of a a grand slam finalist gets about 1,00 points last year he reached the quarters so he's going to win a good chunk I think going into this tournament Fritz was uh the it was the 12th or at least the 12th seed Shelton was 13th and um Tommy Paul was 14th and then tifo is like 20th so Ben Shelton is going to lose a lot of points and uh tifo is gonna probably back in the top 15 Tommy played a pretty good match also against Center I think he was in the third round but um I think he lost 7676 the first two sets really good just was not able to um keep up with the quality in the tiebreaker yeah it will be hard yeah for it to to shake because yep 61 head-to-head number one American for you know many years um and this is his home home tournaments I think Fritz is still going to perform overall better than like tifo on other courts you know tifo has not really been playing very well um outside of of the US definitely not a good player on the clay um so I don't I don't think that he's gonna well okay all all right Nick I mean sure in in a sports world really what what like you're absolutely right at the end of the day we only remember we only remember who wins um and whether you reach the final or you lost in the first round you know next year we only going to remember the winner but I think you know um we haven't had an American in the final of a Grand Slam in a really long time uh you know Andy rodic was the last American to win I I think American man and um I think he's also the last American men to reach the final of a grand slam um so you know that's that's that's pretty good because he been at least a good you know 20 years maybe 21 22 years but moving forward I think it's just going to be hard uh for them to um to get over that final I mean the nerves are definitely going to be there um the expectation is going to be probably huge um that could definitely affect that play in a final um but also I think people knows that um Center at the moment is um is a bit above them levelwise he's been playing really well um very solid player um you're right yeah CNA just looks looks too good no I I'm with you I'm with you um this is a great semi-final match uh you know two Americans it a gram and at the US Open but you're right yes cner and you know it's funny because CA had like a fantastic start of the season right Australian Open I think he won maybe three tournaments in a row he was maybe 20 and0 starting in the season and then I mean it is known that he's not as good on clay so we kind of uh you know alarz you know won the French and so took a little bit of the spotlight while beating Center and then he won Wimbledon and that's crazy because you know he went pretty far in the in the Olympic as well so he had a crazy summer and so I feel like CER was the number one but you know he went a little bit in the in the back you know behind alcaraz and then Novak as well but you know coming back he won Cincinnati right away beating TFO um and you know if he could win the US Open that would be two two grand slam in um this year for siner reinforcing his uh he's um dominance at the top of the ranking um so yeah I'm with you T um or frits are not quite [Music] there yeah I'm going to take a little bite of these food [Music] Nick potatoes [Music] so how's life in beautiful La Nick by the way um I think I told you that before but I was really impressed by um the progress you made on your game I mean you played really good when we played together serve was a lot better and and then the ground strokes also was a lot better I mean we had much longer rallies um you kept the ball in play a lot longer than before so very impressed just keep keep doing that keep working hard on your game and and I'm sure that you'll um uh you will do well in that tournament in January yeah it will be two Slims two Slims for sinner two Slims for alarz um one thing though is that you know CER is the world number one and so okay so I haven't really thought too much about it but this is what happened last year see alar has kind of was the favorite going into last year's Us open and then he lost uh to Medvedev in a semi-final and um but meddev did played a fantastic match there like one of his one of the best one of his best matches of last year and after that alaras really did not perform well uh for maybe the last three or four tournaments of the year he lost in early rounds of just about any tournaments that he played in Paris in Shanghai at the end of the year Masters and then he also lost um pretty easily to ZF at the Australian Open I mean it took him until Indian Wales of this year to get back to um to uh his winning ways so why do I say that even though he did want two grand slimes it does seem to be very affected mentally when he loses like a big match in this case the uh gold medal at the Olympics um early exits you know in Cincinnati smashed his rackets four times on nice display by you know tennis TV and then played a pretty poor match for his standard at uh you know at the US Open so I hope he can recover quickly last year he didn't um so we'll see how big of a factor is for the rest of the year sinner well cner is very um very confident right now uh came to the US Open after winning Cincinnati and um but he has a lot of points to defend at the end of the year he he won a lot I think last year um so he's going to have to keep up with that but you know that is the um the hard part about tennis Pete sess actually had a talk with Novak a few years back and he was saying winning a tournament winning a grand slam is one thing uh but defending it is a a complete different thing and so and the reason is because you have a Target on your back everybody wants to beat you you don't fly under the radar and when the expect ation is there it just adds a little bit more um challenges to um to repeat the same performance but uh right now yeah I like cner C is very composed cner is very um it seems like he doesn't really let his emotion um dictate his plays yeah um and you know we will have these uh conversations uh yes I do not I mean I think it comes down to um you know I think it's it's a different topic when it comes to uh allowing know coaching once you allow it you know you have to I guess take advantage of it in in one way or another um I myself don't I am not like I think the reason why they legalized it is because um players were you know Finding ways to to to use it to cheat basically um when it wasn't allowed and so I guess the the the best way was to just go ahead and and allow it just because everybody was doing it anyways but I I don't think that they um did a good job as far as the implementation of it um however looking at your coach after every single point or um for me it kind of takes a little bit of energy out of me it almost feel like what I liked about tennis is that you know you on the court against your opponent and you need to figure out how to win and I also need to be a little bit in the zone like I want to be you know in my own heads in my you know just focused uh you know going point after points not really looking around and you know see what's going on um so I definitely agree with you yeah I would like him to be a little bit more like um how do you call that like a gladiate like a gladiator where you just you just you step on the court and then and then you you try to you know figure things out without asking question every other points that you lose um yeah but I mean you know still alare is a fantastic player for sure live streaming um the um Center has a much smaller team medev also has a much smaller team um and I kind of like it just build better chemistry um build a better chemistry less I guess drama to manage tifo has been changing his shirts about 12 times [Music] um yeah smaller team understand that uh you know as a tennis player at the end of the day you're the one holding the rackets you're the one hitting the balls making decisions I don't really like that idea of you know having somebody outside of the court telling you dictating the plays when you're outside of the Court you know watching from the side you definitely see better you have a much better Clarity like you you know you're not you're not tired uh you can see what your opponent does you're not focused on the ex tion so um the coach definitely see better um but I think that I do in a way like I don't I don't mind the coaching but I do wantan to like include it but in a way that he's still keeping the Integrity of the game as far as you know two players play against each other and need to figure out how to win yeah Ferrero is you know former number one so he clearly has you know some really good inputs some really good insight into the game and that kind of quality coaching you know has a way to um to build very good players unfortunately not everybody has access to these players and so you know it's kind of nice to level level the playing fields um um and uh not not let those you know very qualified few individuals um give the opportunities to select few yep the play is playing the match not the coach alarz definitely has a lot of talent um yeah yeah once he's uh once he's you know feeling it um I mean the boy can play he um the only thing is he serve like he doesn't serve as well by the way his backand has he improved quite a lot not really missing that much but just the variety the power um of course the legs he is um he is extremely good but when things don't go well it just seems like the his coaching staff is supposed to be coming up with the solutions and um that's not cool yeah he all go from good to great yeah as for coaching why does every player think that coach has the right answer yeah I mean well they don't um actually Jim Jim mentioned that uh you know Michael Russell so Taylor fr's coach was also a player really good American player and they have a very different way to communicates he doesn't talk every single point he um he just has that chemistry with the player where he understands that he cannot open his mouth every time he needs the player to to um you know to think to stay in the zone you don't want to be shouting something every single time because sometimes you lose the points even though you did the right thing so you don't need the coach to tell you oh well that's okay like you know it is okay just you know sit down enjoy the match you know he's already getting paid just uh just keep watching I'm not going to say that they need to go as far as like meddev where you telling your your coaching staff to leave the Box um because that's a bit aggressive um you know especially medvedev's coach is a French so French are definitely no stranger to arguing but still I think In the Heat of the Moment uh may not want to do that what do you think what do you think Nick about um about the way Novak handles uh his communication with his team um in like a high pressure moments when he doesn't perform very well I hope you don't mind me eating a little bit I'm kind of starving I watched the first semi-final I posted a video and then um I found out about these live streams really fantastic but the thing is I play tennis this morning I watched uh first first match I'm watching the second match your boy is hungry right now [Music] my brother just um find um had this idea of doing live streaming he really enjoys it so perfect you want me to open a bottle of wine actually I opened it yesterday um but I don't know if I want to fall asleep actually I had my uh first glass in a long time a couple days ago and then I went to sleep right away I just um you know once you pass that 33e Mark things go down very quickly are you snacking um are you eating anything right now okay Nick you got it so yeah Jo from Trader Joe's that one is a red wine from Trader Joe's Mo recom you recommend okay okay all right okay s Cheers Cheers s Sante is a cheers in French but it actually means Health that's what you say before drinking himself into bed Novak I don't know what his future holds now I think it's just going to be harder it's definitely going to be harder uh besides the Olympic he didn't win any tournaments he did make it to the final of the um of Wimbledon but was very far from winning it um I think for Novak it's funny because last year going into Australia he was saying he found a lot of meaning and purpose into you know pushing his body as far as possible he uh you know once you pass once once you reach a certain age people you know the media keep asking you when are you going to retire um people some people want you to retire when you're at the top um in the case of Andy Murray people wanted him to retire a long time ago because he was just a shadow of his own past self um when it comes to Novak I think he said that as long as he feels competitive that he can actually win the biggest you know tournaments he's going to continue playing and uh uh you know he definitely is competitive I think he enjoys the process of staying healthy uh you know maintaining his body and he definitely likes the game so as long as his body lets him play at a very high level and he feel like he can improve he's goingon to keep playing now it is a bit different you know results do matter he hasn't won a tournament this year besides the Olympic so I think next year the beginning of next year is going to be very very interesting especially especially if he gets an early exit at the Australian Open that's going to be very very interesting um to see how he's going to move forward but regardless I'm going to say here regardless of what happens whether he wins or loses all of his matches next year it doesn't take anything away from his career and his legacy what he won before he's already won and so now he's just playing for fun you're done with dinner homemade chicken wings oh okay okay okay n chicken wings huh oops that homemade chicken wings chicken [Laughter] dinner Fritz 54 oh boy oh yeah I like see how he like um he just threw his body on onto that second serve is definitely taking uh taking his chances on TFO second ser um oh wow wow did you notice how tifo is really good at using his uh two-handed back end to like take advantage of short short balls and come to the net it's not very um common to uh do an approach shots off of your back end especially when you have a better forehand and back end but TFO does it pretty well yes exactly um 100% agree with you I think they um they they are not like Andy Murray or Stan vinka they they wanton so much and they are used to winning um that they are not going to be playing for or less they are not going to be playing for Less they are not going to be satisfied with a first round or a second round win like KY marray they really want to play if they feel like they can win um 100% but here is the thing I think what allowed them to win is also that you know that belief that they can do it that self-confidence going into any tournaments and so that's probably what's gonna kind of blind them a little bit like if they're not at the level to win their you know that self-belief that they've gained throughout their you know their career is what basically convinced them that uh you know they they can do it again um tfu has the aacy no back swing back in yeah well TFO has a weird technique uh but I mean it works for him look I'm I'm actually um I'm actually a big fan of of weird techniques just because not that not of course it doesn't look great but it's because you know we all have like different bodies and if you find the technique that works for you that means you did put out the time you put the time that it took to really find out found out what really works for you and you know tifo definitely found what works for him and um and so I like that you know they took the time to develop their weapons um but um I definitely prefer A's back in over tfo's back in IAC he was oh wow agac he was no joke uh you're saying choking double fault from tifo um um he's been doing that this tournament I don't know if you watch the dimitro match but uh TFO actually Al so dimitro was up 63 in the tiebreaker of the second set dimitro double faulted twice in a row to get TFO back to 6'5 and then TFO double faulted so uh that's a choke I think there is a slight delay uh sorry Nick there's a slight DeLay So I'm now watching the set point whoa yeah Miss Drop shots Fritz wins the fourth okay okay Fritz wins wow did you notice that blonde girl in the box that is a Taylor Fritz girlfriend she has a YouTube Channel too does like all kinds of um just whatever she does during the tournaments like you know hey guys I'm just gonna be eating a chicken sandwich today around the US Open let me tell you how much it is um you know how this is just um yeah so if you want to check it out I I forgot what's her name is it Morgan Morgan yeah Taylor fre his girlfriend um yeah well Tommy Po's girlfriend is no longer there but um tfo's girlfriend is also an influencer yeah um she had a yeah actually only the Americans girlfriend yeah they're just they uh they are not tennis players they probably barely knows the rules but I mean you know I guess whatever work back to Novak Canal they believe they can still compete because they are not regular players that's right they are legends and absolutely they are no regular players uh so many players get injured in tennis actually if you don't get injured you're probably not a real tennis player um and it's crazy how they can get injured throughout their careers and then like four months later they win a tournament where most players they get injured and he them two years three years or sometimes they never get back to the actual level and it happened to so many players Andy Murray is one of them but you know he definitely had a fake hip Stan vinka that is a big example because at his speak he was really good and now he just loses you know first round second round Dominic team who um who retired this year never got back to his level guys like Diego schwarzman um guys like Mato bartini uh you you know final of Wimbledon now loses in second rounds uh the only guy and that is my favorite player Juan Martin um this guy just got injured way too many times but every time he came back he was able to challenge the best players um yeah I mean she is his baby mama that's correct yeah fr's girlfriend more I think let me let me let me check for you I think her name is um is um Morgan Freeman no Fred's girlfriend Morgan riddle Morgan riddle yeah I don't know um she is a um an influencer yeah because she has bad influence and Taylor frits if Taylor Fritz loses this match uh I think it might just be a um either a uh career changing event for Fritz um in a bad way or it would be a relationship ending between frit andfo I mean yeah because he's the number one American for many years um you know and he's leading the head-to-head with TFO six and one so he has really no business losing this match as at least on paper so not only no Americans reach the final he's not going to be the first one he loses to the guy that he dominates the most And he as a number one American if he loses there it's like that one opportunity against the player that you can play your best tennis against and you lose he gonna have to do some restructuring yeah she a gold digger okay yeah I mean uh no comment Nick no comment Tommy Paul Tommy Paul's girlfriend does the same thing uh you know gold digging for how long what they've been together actually Fritz I believe had another girlfriend he had a baby no yeah he had a baby yeah when he was young got married early yeah like like like at the beginning of his career he was with somebody else got a kid then divorced or broke up and then you know found this this um Morgan Morgan riddle weiro Morgan weirdo um and then yeah most um I don't I don't know about you know it's I don't know about like those girlfriends and all I think yeah Tommy pole definitely a good-look guy Fritz Fritz is dorky and um and the voice too I mean like see when he talks he he he almost feels like he's just he's just tired he feels like when he talks he's tired um even even when he just wakes uh uh you know and then he always does like H yeah it was a really good match I mean um I did the right thing today um and I'm just very pleased with the results yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I know yeah so I mean Tommy Paul I like Tommy Paul Tommy is coool good-looking dude um definitely I think he's going to be the best American player um I don't like Ben Shelton as much just because he does have a very big serve but I don't think that um he he very wise as far as shot selection um oh boy love 30 [Laughter] yeah I would be tired too I mean you're right you're right um I would be MH I would be tired too uh good time Nick good time this is a uh okay so two people yep yep so tell me uh Nick um I see also that there is somebody else uh watching uh first of all welcome um I know I've been having a a pretty long and deep discussion with my buddy Nick here but feel free to jump in you know I'm I'm glad to I'm happy to answer any questions I'll be here streaming this entire match so let's get back to it what who do you think is going to win it it's love 40 for Fred about to break TFO in the fifth set slight delay for me probably Fritz looks like he's waking up yeah I mean he changed Diapers at 3:00 am it's now 8:00 pm so it is about time to get up you're right you're right what do you think Nick about the way tifo speaks English um it's a big debate because to be honest I don't understand why people like to pretend to be uneducated when they are somewhat educated that just doesn't make any sense um but maybe he's not educated hopefully this conversation is not too weird for that second person that's watching um really hope that you can jump in here ask me any questions if you want to ask about this match about you know my channel myself uh you know wine if you're into wine oh whatever yep whoa breako two Z for Fritz when do Chipotle by the way Fritz is sponsored by Chipotle which is I believe is fantastic because as a player why wouldn't want you uh to be sponsored by a food company because you get unlimited food uh for life or at least for the duration of your career um but anyway I went to Triple A yesterday uh not a fan of their spice spice uh they have like a sauce that they mix that just goes throughout the burrito the problem with that is that if it's too spicy see it is too spicy like the entire for the whole thing like you don't have a safe spot you don't have a more spicy spot it's just it's just too much it's just too much so anyway my brother ordered that it was too spicy his mouth wasn't fire and uh I finished it but you know that was not easy now the problem with being sponsored by Chipotle is that there is no Chipotle in like Europe and um Australia and all so I guess he's not getting that um half of the year which is makes it kind of a dumb sponsorship but whatever frit looking good right now his parents are from SI Leon yes yep welcome welcome to that that third person um ask me any questions uh feel free to join the chat uh we'll be glad to answer anything any concerns if you want want to know more about me or my channel his parents are from sanon his father worked at a tennis club yes yes exactly see I've never you have never eaten Triple A well what can I tell you Nick um what can I say uh is it because you don't like Mexican food or is it because um I thought that chipotle was kind of like America's favorite fast food to be honest with you just because it's a little bit maybe healthier um or at least it appears healthier it's you know widely available um it's not expensive you can get a burrito for less than 10 bucks and that will fill you up um uh you should give it a try but yes so tfo's background you're right Leon tennis club in Baltimore he played um he got access to that you know tennis facility because he's his father was a janitor um but he definitely is educated like uh he um he he had opportunities I think his parents did well provided very well to put himself in a position to succeed and so when that's the story you don't have to pretend to be oh hey hey welcome welcome to the uh newcomer here um just so happy to have you there just a great live stream but yeah let's get back to it tifo look that's just me but if your parents are you know not educated and you are you don't have to pretend to be your parents just you know it's like it's like all of those rappers like they you know they they they come from Rich families they um you know the parents maybe they struggled when they were young and then you know they were able to like climb the ladder make some good money provide for the kids the kids grew up in a nice neighborhood go to a nice School definitely has money did not grow up in the hood and then when they're like 19 20 years old they start doing freestyle rapping as if they were from some sort of like even a city that they not from that's crazy you oh yo yo yo life is hard life is hard in a nice neighborhood there was no McDonald's around there were only five star [Applause] Resorts three love Taylor Fritz um that is not looking good for tifo um three Z big foe uh big fo is looking like a small foe at the moment it's definitely not Taylor's main fo I can tell you that wow wow Taylor is feeling it exactly and that's why he doesn't perform like almost needs to be like the crowd needs to be behind him the cord needs to be like the perfect cord for him like every all the stars need to line up forfo to perform well um just not as consistent that's right yes TFO short starts to be a little bit short um and Fritz can definitely take advantage of that oh yeah if um so there's a slight delay right now I am at 30 frits love 30 uh so I might be maybe 10 15 seconds behind you uh and that's because you're watching on the super fast internet the um what is they call that the gigablast um internet um if TFO gets broken here um I think it's over um back to 30 love CFO hey little story break points double break point yep yet tifo is a celebrity tennis player um it's kind of like Nick Kos you know these players are known for um other things things other than the performance on the tennis court well tifu is um is not that known no he's he's he's he's good he's just he's just he's just not consistent whoa double faults double wow wow yeah and I I might be like 25 26 mid 20s I mean double faults again on on and you know the thing is for these players the statistic is that even like the best players they don't really win like a lot more points they might be like Nadal for example can win over the course of his career 55 to 60% of the points he doesn't win a lot more points but they do win points when it matters or at least they force the opponent to win it when you double fults at 30-0 you prevent uh you don't give Fritz the opportunity to make the enforced error you just give it away and uh that's exactly what your opponent is is waiting for you know if you want a double faults especially tifo is a really bad double fall because he serves already really slow on the second serve like the second serve is not really um aggressive so um he can't he can't afford to double F there boy I hope TFO doesn't lose this one 6 Z cuz that would be what we call in tennis a bagel yeah a bagel yeah because it's in the evening if if it was in a day session if it was in a day session it would have been called a Donuts love okay since you're in La uh Nick um and if you are into Donuts uh have you been to my favorite place r ry's Donuts they open three locations in Vegas let me know what you think about Randy's Donuts it's an important question I I am not sure who that second person is but uh you know feel free to uh feel free to ask me questions the great players in history make the habit of winning the majority of points that matter the one 15 all point does matter absolutely I mean it does um it does I mean you see like Novak like Nadal they are fighting for every single point it doesn't matter whether they have a big serve or a small serve they are fighting they want you to understand that um um you're gonna have to fight for every single point and we definitely do not double fault um at a crucial time oh my goodness oh well Fritz also does it so and that is why cner is going to win the tournament you never been to Randy's Donuts all right Nick all right okay just what it is that that other person that was with us Nick left probably because you never had Randy's Donuts or tripole um maybe we'll try that out when you come back in January um celebrating that tournament win by the way you haven't sent me the link of the US tournaments you know maybe we'll play doubles together no it's not your fault but you know just send me the link and um we'll see if I can play doubles with you but I definitely do not want to play Four matches a day uh you know I'm not tifo welcome welcome um you got here at the right time to be honest because tifo is looking like he's um he hasn't given up yet on the match still a breakdown and by a breakdown I mean mental breakdown for TFO um I don't think he's gonna come back if he comes back that would be a Fritz choke not uh tfo's uh highlevel performance in my opinion yeah I think so I think I think at this point you know Fritz has a good enough serve to um to um maintain the leads um he also has a good return so I think that if Fritz takes care of his serf and play at a decent level he should be able to win it like 63 but we just saw him double faults on break point so hey everything is possible with frits yes Nick I do have to play some singles you know both singles and doubles cut the I don't know if you are into sports betting like Fritz um I haven't been into any sports but Taylor Fritz right now the money line is minus $50,000 50,000 that means you need to bet $50,000 on Fritz to win a 100 bucks this is just fantastic TFO is plus 8,000 so that's a lot better yeah you bet 100 you get 8,000 and you bet 50,000 on frits to uh I am doing absolutely nothing yeah I'm just watching Love 40 on TFO serving big fo yeah [Music] love 40 Nick it's it's not looking good and to be honest I mean if Fritz wins um I think that's good that that would be more of the desired results I think Fritz definitely deserve to be in the final a little bit more than chfo because you know he's he he performs better you know more consistently um but that was a good fight that was a really good fight 51 Fritz this is it yeah big by the way dick how does uh how does it sound like is it good like when I use the microphone what's the sound quality what's the sound quality here okay see the problem is that if you decide to wear hats during the day you just cannot take it off Midway because your hair is like crazy but what um um so this live stream is kind of fun first time so you know I think I'm gonna do it I'm gonna do tomorrow's I'm gonna stream tomorrow during the uh women's women's final um and so let me know let me know what you want to talk about if you think there's like some good your hair is the same regardless of your well I was talking for like other people but yeah let me know what you what you think I should be at some interesting topic just to like make the live stream a little bit more entertaining um no he missed the volley what 40 love this is it this is it he collapsed he collapsed he collapsed that would be really a really big win for Morgan [Music] riddle oh yeah thank you guys for joining us for the end of this match um I will be streaming tomorrow the uh us opens women's final that's going to be a fun match um and uh yeah I'll be talking about a lot of really really good stuff that you really do not want to miss you should dress up like one of the ladies finalists uh what a brilliant what a brilliant idea um okay okay yeah I I will definitely wear a fresh tea for you one of the one of those nice gray t-shirts um so so I hope you enjoyed that was a really fun really fun live stream a very first one super fun definitely going to do it again tomorrow do not miss out uh Nick I hope you're gonna be there tomorrow because we have quite a lot of ground to cover uh wow see TFO is giving his laundry baskets to the security guy yeah I I didn't know that was the um the analysis of the match well mean I think the the analysis of this match uh TF I I believe that Fritz went into this match thinking that um his game was going to be enough just because he bat TFO so many times but TFO came up with the goods was aggressive served really really well and uh and so Fritz felt like he had to do a little bit better um take advantage of the short balls be more aggressive especially on the second serve and that made it for a really good match you know take advantage definitely you know made made Fritz you know played better and and that's good that was a really good performance um happy that he won five sets he will stay with tifo for a while for sure because you know it's hard to get this opportunity to go that far in a tournament he's gonna have to wait for another year Nick another year a good thing with Fritz is this um should help him go back to the top 10 get a better seed that way he's gonna have to play uh you know um like uh worst players you know early on in the tournament okay Nick uh what do you guys think about this Chris hubanks doing interview as a player I mean the guy loses in the qualties or in the first round and then does that I think he should be practicing right now not watching the game um asking nonsensical questions yeah he definitely played TF curious is actually better yeah yeah you know I think yfo did play well at the end of the day he played his best tennis this tournament um very confident with his game uh served better than he than he uh than he does was aggressive but at the end of the day I think the head-to-head uh Fritz's knowledge of tfo's game really allowed him to step up when it really mattered and uh TFO would have won if it was a best two sets match but the good thing about playing this best of five always gives the advantage to the better player and it really showed in the fifth set yeah K has done well you know on ESPN true but the difference is that kios is supposedly injured um so you know I can't I can't understand why he's not practicing Chris hub things however is not injured um so he should be practicing he should be sleeping by now or resting and you know working on his back end okay first American name in 18 years to get to the final um that's great but I don't think he's going to celebrate that much or at least he shouldn't because it is not the end of the tournament if he wants to win he's going to have to get a good night of sleep don't be emotional and uh keep your energy for the final yes yous is a yeah all right Nick and my other fan in the live stream I think I'm going to take off I'm probably going to go ahead and play some recreational tennis um going to be um I'm going to go play at theone Mountain for a little bit um and I will be back here tomorrow for the women's final so thank you thank you Nick have a wonderful night and uh yeah [Music] ni is back
