But Noskova is pretty comfortable just putting it behind her and taking it on to the next set.
30:43
You're so right.
30:43
I mean, I'll go back to the end of that match against Kostiak.
30:47
It was 5-4.
30:47
Noskova was serving for it.
30:50
40-15.
30:50
Kostiak played two unbelievable points to get it back to deuce.
34:42
They're going to be around for a while at the back end of majors.

Like, what did that look like? Was it ball feed with a coach? Was it live ball drills, specifically working on one shot? Was it two things in a practice? Was it 10 things? Like, how did you kinda structure those practices?
9:54
Well, one thing ...
9:55
You know, look, I help the USTA as a, as a national coach, and one thing I try to tell our young players is the biggest thing is y- control what you can control.
10:04
So for me, I wanted to walk on the court and look across the net and know I worked harder than you to be ready for this moment, to be ready for that match.
10:12
So whether that meant, you know, yesterday I hit 30 extra minutes of serves, or I ran those 400s two days ago that, that I know you didn't run, or I ...
10:20
You know, so for me, it was about controlling what I could control, which was the amount of time on the gym, amount of time on the court getting those reps in and being ready mentally for that.
10:29
If I lost the match, so be it, but the, I knew I worked hard to be there and in that moment.

So I'm assuming if you stayed, you kind of anticipated that return going line.
5:55
So full credit for Ben for sticking around and taking that swimming pool plunge.
6:00
And I think that's going to help Ben moving forward.
6:02
You know, you look at Indian Wells and how, you know, he was a little bit sick, so that didn't have the performance that he wanted.
6:07
Also in Miami, not the performance that he wanted, losing early there.
6:10
And then he goes into Houston, losing early again.
6:13
So, but to win the doubles, you know, that gives you a little bit of extra confidence.
6:17
You know, my dad always told me, hey, if you sign up for the tournament, you finish the tournament.
