**SPEAKER_4** (1:40)
We're back, baby.

**Andy Roddick** (1:41)
Gotta say, the HBO Max app saved my life when we were traveling around this week.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:48)
Yeah.

**Andy Roddick** (1:49)
We had to pop up to New York to host a conversation after a private screening of Rafa.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:55)
Yeah, we'll have some clips on Monday, and then we're actually putting out the full conversation in partnership with them on Thursday.

**Andy Roddick** (2:01)
Awesome, it was really fun. There was like, there were a ton of fancy people there.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:05)
Yeah, it was really fancy people.

**Andy Roddick** (2:07)
Very cool.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:07)
The coolest one was Rafa.

**Andy Roddick** (2:09)
Yeah, yeah. He was the, he was the, it's funny. Like you're in a room with, you know, Seinfeld and Anna Wintour and all these amazing people. And like they come to see Rafa, you know, it's like, and see his doc. It's just, I know we're in our bubble and we forget about how important, you know, this game is to so many people. Anyways, I digress, Mirra Andreeva, we said might be an arrival. It's quite the arrival. It's weird when people win their first one, sometimes like, can they do it? This one, it felt from like the quarters on, it felt like this was kind of hers. You know, it had that Zverev feel where she's the favorite, but without the baggage and kind of the damage of close calls from the years.
I think the only thing I got right, this entire one, was I thought Andreeva would roll in this final against Chwalinska. She is, I mean, it was just such an amazing story before we get to Mirra and kind of project forward what this means for her to go from 114 in the world to 21 in the world in one tournament.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:23)
It's crazy. 93 spots.

**Andy Roddick** (3:24)
We talked about the other day. It's life changing in so many ways. Like what I want to know is like, I wish they would release this if I'm her, her, her team. Okay. This was the schedule we were going to play. I guarantee you she was entered in some challenge or somewhere random going into Wimbledon before she had to play qualities. I bet it was someplace you've never heard of. And then all of a sudden after Wimbledon, she's going to be, I guarantee you that back of the napkin, schedule this, and all of a sudden it's going to be Cincinnati, Canada, Washington. It's going to be very different for her.
You kind of rip up that schedule, you adjust.
You're getting paid more money to lose first round than you are to win a challenger sometimes.

**SPEAKER_4** (4:11)
Yeah. I mean, she talked about how the past three weeks has been kind of a blur. She said in her post, and she's like, I haven't really processed what just happened.

**Andy Roddick** (4:18)
Totally.

**SPEAKER_4** (4:19)
You know, it's like, it's that live in the moment, like need, I assume for a tennis player while also like, how do you grasp the gravity of what just changed? Like you said.

**Andy Roddick** (4:29)
Yeah, I always felt weird. I was younger a little bit, but you would go like juggling normalcy where you live, what your room looks like. For me, it was, you know, I played Agassi and then went to school the next day. It was like, didn't change anything. It was like Pete and then you would be, it was just these little things. But then you would always go back to something normal and you'd be sitting in a place that you recognize. And that's when it would hit me and be like, the room hasn't changed, but everything outside of it has, you know, and I'm sure that's what she's going through.
