Which Aussie Is Most Likely To Survive On A Deserted Island? Find Out!

Who is most likely to survive on a deserted island? Who is the best dancer? Who is the most likely to sleep until noon?

Alex de Minaur, James Duckworth, Thanasi Kokkinakis Nick Kyrgios, John Millman and Jordan Thompson answer all that and more in a special Aussie group chat on the 12th episode of Tennis United, which debuts Friday on the ATP Tour’s Facebook page.

The Aussies enjoy fun banter that you don’t want to miss. You can find out who failed their first driving test!

Belgian stars David Goffin and Elise Mertens also join co-hosts Vasek Pospisil and Bethanie Mattek-Sands.

“The Belgian team is here!” Goffin says. “I followed [Elise’s] Instagram and I saw she is quite fit and working hard [during the pandemic]!”

Goffin and Mertens take on a five-second challenge, in which they have to be fast on their feet to answer questions from Pospisil and Mattek-Sands. Throughout the episode, Canadians drop in to roast Pospisil in celebration of his 30th birthday, which was Tuesday. One of the roasters is former doubles World No. 1 Daniel Nestor.

“Exciting times, man. I guess this is where I’m supposed to say I miss you, which I really don’t,” Nestor says. "All those matches we played you [were] butchering all those volleys on top of the net!"

Bid On VIP Cahill Auction To Benefit Coaches In Need

Darren Cahill says he has been “incredibly lucky” to coach some of tennis’ biggest names, from former World No. 1s Lleyton Hewitt and Andre Agassi to his current mentee, WTA World No. 2 Simona Halep. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected members of the ATP Coach programme whose ability to work has been impacted by the virus, and Cahill is doing his part to support them.

“The ATP Coaches’ division has launched a fan experience initiative where we’re trying to raise some money for some coaches in need,” Cahill said. “We’ve put together a bunch of great packages.”

Cahill’s package includes a two-hour lesson with the former World No. 22 at the 2021 Australian Open and two premium tickets for both the men’s and women’s singles finals. The winning bidder will also receive a behind-the-scenes tour and access to premium hospitality, including transport to and from the airport and tournament hotel. But that’s not all.

Halep is adding a match racquet from the Australian Open as well as a match outfit.

Mic Drop: Roger, Rafa Delight Fans With These 9 Words...

Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have made careers out of carving up their opponents with their sudden impact ‘Serve +1’ patterns. Similarly, they can get a rise out of fans with just a handful of words.

At the 2017 Rolex Shanghai Masters, after a hard-fought final, they raised the roof with fans’ laughter after being persuaded to test their Chinese-language skills during the trophy presentation.

Join us as we count down 10 of the funniest player moments behind a microphone in this hilarious clip from ATP Uncovered presented by Peugeot. The memorable moments include a giddy Stefanos Tsitsipas learning that he qualified for the Nitto ATP Finals, and Yoshihito Nishioka reminding Shenzhen fans that his last name is 'Nishioka' not 'Nishikori'.

[COACHES]

And in case you’re wondering… Rafa says ‘Ai Shang Hai’ (‘Love Shanghai’) and Roger says ‘Ai Wang Qiu, Ai Shang Hai' (‘Love Tennis, Love Shanghai’).
