00:03Thank you everyone for coming out today
00:05in advance of tomorrow night's Roger Federer
00:08and Icon returns to New York
00:10But I just feel
00:13like
00:14tomorrow and I guess today
00:16as well and then Monday next week
00:17it really gives me a true opportunity
00:20to say thank you and goodbye which is
00:21I think important for
00:23some, for me it is
00:25and it's a nice thing to do for sure
00:28but I don't know why it hasn't
00:30happened earlier, it's just
00:31life, life with family and
00:33life on the road and I didn't want to look
00:36for it right away, I let it come naturally
00:38Yeah, it's nerve wracking
00:40to be honest, I haven't played a
00:41single set in
00:43I don't know, it's her catch at Wimbledon maybe
00:46so it's been five years
00:48don't know how it's going to go
00:49tomorrow so there's a lot of uncertainty
00:52but a lot of
00:54happiness that I can return
00:56to Arthur Ashe
00:58a place where I've had so many
01:00beautiful moments and
01:04Serena is doing it, Venus is doing it
01:06you are younger than Venus
01:08do you ever wake up and say
01:10maybe I should consider a wild card
01:11just for a limited basis?
01:13No, no, no, no
01:14no, not at all
01:17Thanks for asking
01:18I wasn't sure if the question
01:20was going to get asked
01:21but I'm happy you did
01:22so I can clarify in case anybody thought
01:25no, no, no
01:26not at all
01:27and I think you anyway
01:28have to enter the doping pool
01:29like God
01:29there's way too many obstacles
01:31and I'm too busy
01:32I'm barely
01:34finding time to play
01:35any exos
01:36you know
01:36so imagine
01:37a tour
01:38and the body's done
01:40it's
01:41you know
01:41but I'm very happy
01:42how I'm feeling
01:43so all good
01:44and
01:45just
01:45just a fan now
01:46just enjoying watching
01:47yeah

01:52if you had the opportunity
01:53to come back and play
01:54one more main draw
01:55here at the US Open in 2026
01:57who would you most like to play
02:00and why?
02:01In today's game
02:02In today's game, yeah
02:05well, I mean
02:06maybe
02:06Carlos
02:08I think he's exciting
02:09I never got a chance to play
02:12against him
02:13or Sinner the same
02:14you know
02:14we only practiced together
02:17a little bit
02:18as they were coming up
02:19so I missed
02:20that generation
02:21unfortunately a little bit
02:22and there's a bunch of those guys
02:23I just missed
02:24just because of
02:25my knee issues
02:27obviously Novak
02:28would be cool too
02:29I mean
02:29he's still going strong
02:30and he's still hanging in there
02:32which is cool
02:33so I'm thinking most about
02:35obviously those guys
02:37so
02:38yeah
02:38and it's nice to see Carlos back
02:40I'm happy
02:40he made it in time
02:41so we'll see how he's
02:42how he's going to feel
02:42but
02:43I don't have to worry about
02:44how I would play him
02:45because
02:46I'm not there in the draws
02:48but I wish him the best
02:50and I think I can speak for everyone
