Sam Querrey gives answers to what $150,000 Nadal and Alcaraz Netflix Slam private session fee would get from him in hilarious video
ATP
As outrage hit social media surrounding Carlos Alcaraz and Rafael Nadal charging $150,000 for private sessions at the Netflix Slam this weekend in Las Vegas, Sam Querrey who himself is charging $2,000 for a hit with himself and John Isner which he dubbed the steal of the century has used it for hilarious social media content.
Querrey, a ten-time ATP titlist and former World Number 11 who retired in 2022 and now plays pickleball akin to Jack Sock albeit with some humbling losses along the way asked himself what $150,000 for a session with him would get in his world with superb results. This including doing the person's taxes, folding their laundry, teaching them not to win a major and also how to play pickleball.

Nadal in particular was criticised as compared to Roger Federer and Serena Williams in retiring, he was accused of a lack of dignity with the duo who will face off in an exhibition match charging a lot more than even top American pros in Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe who themselves are top flight players on the ATP Tour. This compared to Nadal who is a legend of the sport, but many chimed that whether he needs the money is a different thing as well as Alcaraz who is alongside Djokovic, Sinner and Medvedev as the four top players in the sport as of right now.
"If you want to hit with Isner and myself, it's $2,000. It's the steal of the century. But let me tell you what you get from me for $150,000. I'll walk your dog, I'll teach you how to fold laundry. I'll even give you a psychological lesson on how not to win a major," joked Querrey.
"I'll do your taxes, I'll make you some lunch. I'll teach you how to make amazing social media content. I'll even tuck you in at night. And since you won't be winning a Slam, I'll teach you the next best thing, how to play pickleball."

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.
mandoist09-11-2026 - Ironically, Martina became a U.S. Citizen about the same time as the Orange Convicted Felon & Abuser was just beginning on his road to losing all Daddy's Millions!!
mandoist09-11-2026 - "Another fresh start is in the cards." Thanks for the Humor!! I'm guessing this is the minimum one can do to keep all your sponsors hanging-on in perpetuity?
mandoist09-11-2026 - Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.
mandoist08-11-2026 - Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??
mandoist08-11-2026 - Wtf? Why is there no reason? And what about the men's?Bel08-11-2026
- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
