Eight.
So when McInerney hits seven, Alcarez is six at 21 or 22 years old.
He's that great.
But also the question is now, can he win 20?
Right, right, right.
It's like the record before those guys was 14.
The last Wimbledon final I played against Roger, that was when he broke the previous record.
was in that match so pete sambras who you don't see is a recluse pete showed up for that match because that was his record that was his record so he showed up so we're playing in front of him i'd known pete because i played on tour with him it's 15 and i think the next highest active player at that point so that would have been 09 it probably been rafa like three or four and it's like there's no one gonna be even close yeah and then the two of them didn't even finish then another guy comes and does it's just absurd and then you throw serena what she did
And it's all together and it's just like we're spoiled by greatness.
Then you tend to like look at someone who won four or the commentators are disparaging someone who's 20 in the world during a live broadcast.
I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about?
Yeah.
Tell a better story.
And I don't know that that happens if I win.
Right.
I think it gets viewed very differently than if you kind of tragically lose.
I was a kid who was hot-headed, threw stuff.
Yeah, so you get judged.
There's a hype mechanism that my natural ability probably doesn't support.
After that match, maybe you feel a little more understood.
