Other
Tennis stars at the US Open have revealed which of their fellow players they would like to see in a reality show, with Frances Tiafoe and Christopher Eubanks being popular picks.
The players in the video included the third, sixth, and eighth seeds in the women's event - Jessica Pegula, Coco Gauff, and Maria Sakkari respectively - as well as former world No. 1 Victoria Azarenka and former No. 3 Elina Svitolina.
The video also featured the men's world No. 10 Tiafoe, as well as 2012 US Open champion Andy Murray and 28th seed Eubanks.
Sakkari says she wants to see Nadal's life
Sakkari replied to the question about who she would want to see in a reality show by saying she would like to see 22-time Grand Slam champion and Big Three member Rafael Nadal's life in a Kardashian-esque programme.
"A reality show?… Something like the Kardashians? Out of interest… I want to see Rafa’s life," she said.
Meanwhile, Murray avoided the question by joking that he hadn't yet seen the Netflix tennis docu-series 'Break Point'.
"I’ve not watched Break Point, so I can’t answer that," he said.
Meanwhile, Azarenka joked that a reality show about herself would be cancelled within 20 minutes.
"If I would be on camera, in the first 20 minutes it will be canceled," she declared.
Eubanks and Tiafoe popular picks for reality show
Moreover, while Svitolina picked Nick Kyrgios and French tennis player Benoit Paire, all the other players picked either Eubanks or Tiafoe.
Eubanks himself went for Tiafoe, as did Pegula. Meanwhile, Gauff went for her former doubles partner Eubanks while Azarenka went between the two men.
"You know what… Chris Eubanks. I’ve been talking about Tiafoe, but I think he’s just really funny," she concluded.

The video ended with Tiafoe joking that he'd like to see himself in a reality show.
"Probably myself," he said, laughing.

- 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.

- 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
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
