Carlos Alcaraz vs Stefanos Tsitsipas with a twist! 🎲
Stefan is like flying, like a butterfly, you know?
Okay, Carlos, we're going to play a game.
Here are the rules.
It's a tie-break to seven,
but every two points, we roll the dice.
The number gives us a difficulty modifier,
telling us how we have to play the next two points.
If we roll a six, we just play as normal.
Okay, got it. Let's go.
Let's go.
Okay, it's...
Okay, I got a two.
I almost got a six, you see?
I almost got a six and a four.
Two is, uh...
Self and volley.
Forehand only.
I think I got him here.
I got him here.
Do we begin?
One-zero, I guess.
I mean, I think I'm warming up.
I'm getting used to the rules.
I guess now I know what you're going to do now.
Me too, me too.
That's a tough one.
No!
Not again.
Five.
Come on, come on.
No, come on, come on.
Keep rolling.
Backhand only.
Four is forehand only.
The worst part is that I don't even know what he gets.
Like...
Ah!
I mean, I couldn't hit the ball.
I mean, someone, like, flying, like a butterfly, you know?
The best thing I'm going to see, you know, this week, for sure.
No!
Four-zero so far.
I don't know how.
I'm going to get back.
I'm going to come back.
Please, six.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, look.
Come on, man.
Court is lava, no way.
It's forehand only and serving.
These two points is for sure for me.
The court is lava is interesting.
It's a bit outside the box.
You cannot play tennis to the backcourt.
You have to play before the service box.
So I have to play super short.
And that's not good with Carlos.
One sec, one sec.
I have to find a tactic now, one sec.
How do you even win the point when playing like this?
I think I will do the sabre and just come to the net.
That's the only way.
Who came up with this idea?
Four-two.
I told you, these two points was for sure for me.
It's almost like handing two points to the opponent.
The way the three ends up playing.
Please, no, please, no.
Please, no three.
Please, please.
Please, no three, I said.
No three!
No!
Three.
Ah, court is lava.
That sucks for him.
Because we're going to be playing on the serve here.
So I can hit here.
Basically, your court is this one here.
Ah, that's what I, that's what I.
That's your court.
That's what I understood first.
This is out and this is in.
But I can hit, I can hit the ball here.
Yeah, you can hit from wherever you want,
but you have to play, you have to play here.
Okay, okay, perfect, all right.
My drop shots could be okay, I guess.
The worst part about all of this
is that he doesn't know how to serve.
So we're just playing on the box.
He makes the first serve, it's really difficult.
I'm just going to underarm this one
so we can play on the boxes.
I got him, I got him.
Oh yeah, I got, Jesus.
I don't know.
I don't know, I really don't know.
You got three as well?
Yeah.
This one, play left.
It's one.
I mean, one is playing lefty.
I don't play so bad lefty.
Let's go.
Must point to you.
I mean, one hand, man.
It's so strange.
Man, the ATP tour needs to be played like this.
I don't care, like,
but I got to change the rules right now.
Six, three, let's go.
Man, I don't think I'm ever going to do this in my life.
Looks like we should practice lefty.
Next practice, we do lefty, me and Carlos.
Lefty, for sure.
I think my highlight from here is
you finding the backhand.
Oh yeah, the...
