LaMina Moll steps into McDonald's, looks left, sees Policik, looks right, sees Jimenez. Gives a nod to Ronaldinho in the corner with a FIFA World Cup meal.
Ronaldinho sees Son in the booth. Son finds Beckham going for extra Big Mac sauce. He's got Davies at the table just behind him. Davies going for his collectible cup. Oh, a steal by Henri, who pulls his own collectible cup. Collect one of nine legendary cups with a FIFA World Cup meal.

Are all batteries the same?
That's like asking if all soccer players are the same. Take Messi, the most decorated player ever. Is there any other player who has achieved that? No, just him. Now take Duracell. Is there any other battery with power boost ingredients inside? No, just Duracell. Remember, goats only trust goats, because they're built different, and Messi only trusts Duracell.

**John Silk** (2:20)
Good afternoon, good evening, good morning, wherever you are in the world.
It is last ball drops for arguably the greatest day in the tennis calendar, day one of Wimbledon. I'm joined by Amanda. Amanda, how you doing?

**Amanda** (2:34)
I'm good, how are you?

**John Silk** (2:36)
I'm good. We will start, I mean, there was lots to talk about today, but we'll start with Yannick Sinner, the number one seed, who played a little bit like Carlos Alcares did this time last year against Fognini.
He came through in five versus Keps Manovich. They played here in 24 and Sinner absolutely smoked Keps Manovich, but today was a different story, wasn't it?

**Amanda** (3:04)
Yeah, definitely surprising from Sinner. I mean, barring the French open loss influenced by the heat, you don't really see Sinner struggling that much early at slams. So definitely a surprise to see him go to five today, but it was a good win to get through that and get to the second round.

**John Silk** (3:22)
Yeah, Sinner was...
It definitely caught me a little bit off guard, especially in those... The big point at six, was it six-five in the breaker in the third? How many times do you see Sinner win those kind of points and walk away with that set, but Keps Manovich kind of came out of it and took the third in that like monster rally? And it's something you just don't see Sinner doing that often, like missing a rally ball. He can usually just go all day in it. It really caught me off guard. And also the whole bloody shoe incident, that was really, really strange.

**Amanda** (3:59)
Yeah, I'm still not sure what happened with the shoe. I know in his interview after, the interviewer asked him like, Oh, are you in pain? And he was like, no, I'm fine. And it was very odd. And he said he didn't want to stop the momentum of the match. But definitely a strange move to just keep going with a bloody shoe.

**John Silk** (4:21)
That's got to be bad as well to have that much blood coming through.

**SPEAKER_6** (4:24)
Like that can't be.

**John Silk** (4:25)
That's got to have had at some point. But anyway, yes, Sinha in the end, making it relatively easy for himself in that fifth set, kind of coming through 4663676263
And it kind of just overall improves his fifth set mentality, right? It's a big thing that Sinha hasn't won a five setter since AO24. You know, so this is a nice little hurdle to get over while he's very early in the competition, right?
