All on the table: Casper Ruud, Alexander Bublik, Benoit Paire have a Christmas dinner at UTS

[@Oxamyt3109]

Casper eats, Benoit listens, Sascha talks

The video should be called "Bublik teases Ruud for being too good for one hour"

More like Bublik is incredibly rude to Ruud for not being a pussy.

Everyone behind the camera was in the same state!

[@raoulhery]

someone explains those jokes. I dont get that part....

[@frostbite3327]

@@raoulherythe point of the joke was bublik saying his favorite part of tennis is to practice but he doesn’t like playing against some one like zapata screaming over dumb lower matches with no pay. Apparently they don’t get money until the quarter finals and then when bulblik said to check the fact sheet to understand that the match didn’t really mean anything because they weren’t getting paid unless they made it to the quarterfinals lol 😂

THIS IS AWESOME! I'm the biggest tennis fan and this is showing us the guys true colors off the court. Benoit seems so sweet and nice and I've always been given the impression he's an asshole and always is pissed off and never gives any effort lol Bublik is similar in the way he's portrayed when just following tennis over the years and short small sample size interviews. I loved this and they should come out with a show and rotate players throughout the league or do another reality show similar to TopSpin but not a documentary...more of a reality show like this ..

[@juedionne925]

Wow ! That's really nice content ! We see that the 3 have a totally different relationships with tennis. Bublik is like I was feeling he was, he has complexity with his relation with tennis (love/hate). Benoit also is like I was thinking, super charismatic, funny, he listen a lot, he is humble. Casper is actually a more complex person than I was thinking, for what we see on Tour he seems sociable, everyone like him, he is well spoken, always a perfect demeanour on court, best speech, charismatic... but at the same time we see that he is really private, shy, way too humble, not confortable around people in a "close contact" around the table (he didn't go to players dinner or don't sit with them and stay with his team ?!!). He was eating to compensate for his discomfort of the discussion/situation. He did change the course of the conversation a lot when it became weird (talking to much about alcool, the fact sheet story and Zapata, talking about women, etc). That is really interesting to watch ! Thanks !

For Casper , orthodox Christmas is on 7th of January and Christmas eve is on 6th . Nothing to do with kings , its got to do with difference in calendar between Catholic and Orthodox Church

[@ntnnot]

Nope, Casper was on point: _"The Three Kings Day in Spain_ _In the first week of January , while the rest of the world is returning to their normal routines after the Christmas vacation, Spanish children are impatiently awaiting the arrival of the Three Kings. It’s another very traditional Christmas celebration of Christian origin._ _This day is called The Epiphany or the Feast of the Three Kings, and it’s the last Christmas holiday in Spain. It’s celebrated on the 5th and 6th of January._ _The 6th of January: Three Kings’Day_ _This day is usually spent with the family. Children wake up to discover the gifts that the Three Kings have brought and enjoy playing with their new toys. After lunch, the Roscón de Reyes is eaten. This is a type of dessert that comes with a golden paper crown (corona de papel dorado) and has a bean and a figurine of one of the Three Kings inside. The person who find the figurine is crown «the king of the house» and has to wear the paper crown, and the person who finds the bean has to pay for the roscón."_

[@nemanjap8768]

@ntnnot maybe but Bublik is Russian, so he is orthodox Christian

[@ntnnot]

@@nemanjap8768 That has nothing to do with what Ruud said ("I think they do both in _Spain_ . I think 6th is the day when the three kings came or sth...")

[@nemanjap8768]

@ntnnot but they were talking about Christmas , Spain doesn't celebrate 2 Christmases

[@ntnnot]

@@nemanjap8768 Yeah they were talking about Christmas and Ruud said Spanish celebrate both on Dec 24 and Jan 6, and he was right, also in regards to the 6th having to do with the three kings. To add: _"Unlike in Anglo-Saxon cultures, in Spain Christmas gifts can be opened on two dates: either in the morning of December 25th (Christmas), waiting for Santa Claus to have done his work during the night, or in the morning of January 6th, when the Three Kings have already left for the East._ _In many Spanish residences the tradition of handing out gifts on Three Kings Day is still maintained, giving the children a small gift for Christmas, while in other homes it is the other way around: on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day gifts are opened for everyone, and on Three Kings Day gifts are only given to the children."_ Already in my first post: _"In the first week of January , while the rest of the world is returning to their normal routines after the Christmas vacation, Spanish children are impatiently awaiting the arrival of the Three Kings. It’s another very traditional Christmas celebration of Christian origin."_

Yeah, we don't need anymore of Eubanks. Leave him to cornball at TC. UTS had him on twice as the loquacious, articulate black guy, but he completely dominated proceeding in an exhausting way. Didn't let anyone really speak nor did he say anything really interesting. It was all about himself.

I think you're right. I really like Bublik, but he was giving off a subtle yet noticeably icy vibe to Ruud. Ruud's a nice guy -- disappointed to see Bublik treat him that way.

[@alexandracotton4514]

​@@BassByTheBaywell, after their fifth episode with Ruud being the host for conversation with Thiem and ADM I would say Bublik managed the host role slightly better xD with two episodes with Casper at hands I kinda get a feeling that Bublik probably noticed somewhere between the matches and what they now have at the one table how much more talkative Casper is with the more accomplished guys, and with Bublik being already low-key jealous of Casper - he probably took it as Casper acting snobbish. While Casper was probably sitting there perfectly aware how Bublik could be a fucking savage with words and be in his head like: Don't talk over him don't talk over him don't talk over him don't talk over him 😂 but I saw them since that roundtable in Basil being seemingly friendly and having fun (Casper did a tweener over Bublik! xD) so they probably had already cleared their whatever the misunderstandings on each other they might have had here lol

We don't appreciate the level of athletes and players they are. Good format to get them to know better
