Andy Roddick on the Netflix Slam exhibition: "It was a great event, considering they had never done it before"
Andy Roddick, in a recent episode of podcast Served with Andy Roddick gave his thoughts on the Netflix Slam exhibition that took place on March 3.
The exhibition featured a match between Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz, with the latter ultimately emerging victorious with a score of 3-6, 6-4, 14-12 to claim the trophy. The event took place at the Michelob ULTRA Arena in the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Roddick commented that while the match may not have been exceptional in terms of ball striking, it was certainly high in "drama."
"I think people often equate, like, if a match is dramatic, they say it's a great match, and I don't always necessarily agree with that. I don't think it was a great match from the kind of the balls and strikes of it. But the drama was high; Rafa saves five match points," Roddick said (25:28).
The former World No. 1 praised the Netflix Slam as a "great event" considering that it had never been done before.
"It was a great event, considering they had never done it before, at least in the arena. I obviously can't watch because I'm doing the television, but in the arena, I thought it went off great. A 10 out of 10. High drama, went to the tiebreaker, they both seemed happy and into it, and they came out and, like, were actually playing from the word go wasn't like a laughy jokey thing the entire time," Roddick added.
