00:00Let's talk about Serena Williams. You say she is the best female player in the world, in the book.
00:05Best female player ever, no question.
00:08Some wouldn't qualify it. Some would say she's the best player in the world. Why qualify it?
00:14Oh, she's not, you mean the best player in the world, period?
00:17Yeah, best tennis player in the world. You know, why say female player?
00:20Well, because if she played the men's circuit, she'd be like 700 in the world.
00:36Any time that you feel the need to compare a woman's accomplishments to what a man would
00:39do in that situation, you're automatically diminishing what the woman has done because
00:43she isn't validated unless she's through the prison of what a man would have done.
01:06Actually, it's funny because Andy Murray, he was been joking about
01:10myself and him playing a match. And I'm like, Andy, seriously, like, are you kidding me?
01:15Because for me, tennis in men's tennis and women's tennis are completely almost two separate sports.
01:20So I'm like, if I were to play Andy Murray, I would lose 6-0, 6-0 in five to six minutes,
01:27maybe 10 minutes.
01:28The
01:35odds are over there. I think it's mixed. They think I'd probably lose this arena.
01:40I believe that I could still take it.
01:46Donald Trump, who seems to be in the news a little bit.
01:48He's going to be our president soon, yes.
01:50Going to be a president in about a year. He made an offer, which, you know, I felt like was
01:56not enough. And I think he was humoring the two of us. And Serena,
01:59she's got a lot to lose by losing to an old fart like myself.
