00:00 Gael, we've got some questions for you.
00:05 Lamont, how are you doing?
00:10 I'm very good, thank you. First time in LA and I wouldn't think asking you some questions here.
00:18 I was wondering, I've heard you're a great dancer, and I'm expecting a bit of your best dance move later.
00:32 I mean later as you said, now you're putting pressure, you want to put me on the spot in front of everybody.
00:37 Right now I think.
00:39 Guys, come on, I need to win this last quarter, I'm quite focused you see. Everybody likes it you know.
00:48 Olympic showdown.
00:51 Oh, wait for the big serve.
00:55 Yeah, let's go, come on.
00:58 Juwan, the Olympic enemy.
01:07 On your head.
01:10 It worries me though that he does that in a certain situation.
01:13 I just want to feel the hammy.
01:18 Look at the height.
01:21 Oval.
01:23 Here we go then, first card played.
01:25 Lamont, seven up already.
01:32 That is a typical Bublik enemy there.
01:35 Absolutely.
01:38 Rip the serve.
01:41 Missed it.
01:42 He does.
01:48 That is how you do it.
01:50 Cool.
01:51 End of quarter.
01:55 End of the quarter, end of a regular time.
01:57 Now, quarter point comes in.
02:01 Of course.
02:04 Perfect start for the Frenchman.
02:10 I know you have some of the AC Milan players watching, some French players too.
02:16 Have you got any questions for them?
02:19 Olivier, how many goals this year?
02:26 Hold up your hands here, Olivier.
02:28 One goal only.
02:42 Lamont.
02:45 Didn't need to jump for that one.
02:48 See what Alex does here.
02:49 Another underarm.
02:50 That is three for three.
02:55 Wow.
02:58 Monty's come to the net.
03:01 Trying to work out how to counteract this underarm serving.
03:08 Everyone's bag checked at UTS.
03:14 Eight five.
03:18 Lamont.
03:19 Lamont is using the next point for three.
03:21 UTS.
03:29 Oh yeah.
03:45 Let's go.
03:46 Here we go.
03:47 Eight even five.
03:48 What kind of service is this?
03:51 Who said that?
03:53 Who said that indeed?
03:54 Olivier.
03:56 I went for the tennis lesson of my daughter.
04:03 I've seen him.
04:04 He's a cool guy.
04:07 He hasn't given you a tennis lesson yet?
04:09 No, not yet.
04:10 He is very cool indeed.
04:13 Lamont wraps up second quarter here.
04:17 He's looking pretty good.
04:19 Public enemy with some work to do.
04:21 I'm trying to stay in the game.
04:22 I have to keep my underarm serve going.
04:24 I serve at least one double fold.
04:26 That's the best quarter I had.
04:27 That was a full on underarm serve quarter.
04:29 How do you think it went?
04:30 I think it went better than the previous quarters when I served five, six double folds.
04:34 At least I'm staying in the game.
04:41 So a must win quarter here for the public enemy.
04:44 He told us he was focused.
04:45 And he admitted that he hated talking to us.
04:48 So I'm not sure whether to be offended or...
05:06 Better up close.
05:07 Even better I must say.
05:08 I cannot believe you did this.
05:11 Such a famous footballer's hair to his face.
05:14 Did I?
05:17 Massage maybe.
05:21 Let's go.
05:22 Oh, Lamont.
05:23 Let's go.
05:25 Eight, three, Lamont.
05:28 Point and he's gone underarm.
05:29 Of course he has.
05:31 Oh, yeah.
05:34 Nine, three, Lamont.
05:37 And Monfils goes underarm.
05:39 Oh.
05:42 Twelve, five.
05:44 Good stuff.
05:45 Different sport here.
05:47 Oh.
05:50 Time for some magic.
05:58 Back up.
06:01 Oh, why did it have to end?
06:05 Love a bit of showboating.
06:09 Twelve, six.
06:11 And we are in Trinatown.
06:17 That's a great track serve.
06:20 Oh, well played.
06:22 Well played.
06:25 Vivaldi wants to win this quarter.
06:28 That is a big miss.
06:30 First to 16.
06:35 What could have been a two-point deficit is now a four-point deficit for quarter points.
06:51 And there we go.
06:56 Lamont wins three quarters to long.
06:59 Guillaume Monfils, Lamont, the first three-love victory we've had in L.A.
07:07 Day two here.
07:08 UTS.
07:10 Guillaume Monfils says thank you to the L.A. crowd, which has been great so far.
07:16 He's not qualified just yet for the semifinals, but that will do him no harm.
07:22 Played two, won two for the Frenchman.
07:24 And he had a chat with Olivier Giroud along the way.
