00:12 [SPEAKING ITALIAN]
00:25 [CHEERING]
00:27 Very stressful, the first two sets.
00:29 At the start, we were like, oh, maybe we're not
00:30 going to win this.
00:31 When he started the first set, it was like, am I dreaming?
00:35 So it really completely changed the game.
00:37 And then after the fourth set, we think, OK, now that's it.
00:41 I think in the third set, you could
00:43 see that he'd locked in a little bit more.
00:45 And then we rode the wave, and then he got it in the fourth.
00:48 And then in the fifth, he had that break, and I was like,
00:50 Yannick's got this.
00:51 It was absolutely spectacular.
00:53 I mean, who would have thought that he
00:55 would come back like this?
00:56 Just basically like being on a Rocky movie.
00:59 It's loud when you want it, I can tell you that.
01:01 We were screaming.
01:03 Not even words.
01:04 Not even words, yeah.
01:05 And you know, for us, Italians, we are so proud.
01:08 He's the first Italian winning the Australian Olympics.
01:10 We were cheering for Medvedev, and the match was incredible.
01:14 Both of the players played so well.
01:16 And of course, we wanted Medvedev to win.
01:19 Not this year.
01:20 Hopefully next year.
01:21 And Yannick's, he's incredible.
01:22 Both of them are incredible athletes.
01:25 He plays super well.
01:26 I think he's always respectful to the ball kids
01:29 and the other players.
01:30 So yeah, we're just super happy for him.
01:33 Every Grand Slam is his this year.
01:36 Definitely more Grand Slam wins.
01:38 I'm riding the wave.
01:39 I'm on the [INAUDIBLE]
