Her equanimity, poise and wisdom shines in this lovely interview. Her diction is very gentle, yet conveys substance. Nice to see Nick in this video. Through this interview Naomi is one human being helping another fellow being heal.
Nice interview with Naomi, thank you so much. ❤
Nick is a legend and will always remain so. I rewatch his and Bubliks highlights all the time. They don’t even need to try because their natural talent is sick. Everyone got angry that they didn’t maximize their talents but I just appreciate what they gave the fans.
Naomi is so kindhearted ❤️ It’s so interesting to see this new side of Nick. Appreciate him opening up and sharing his story ❤️
MY GOODNESS GUYS! MASTERFUL! NAOMI IS INDEED "A LION"! NICK, GREAT HOSTING, MY BROTHER! I SAY WITHOUT DOUBT THIS INTERVIEW WAS "GOOD TROUBLE"! Y-E-A-H! BLESSINGS!
So adorable watching both of you on this convention❤❤❤
Naomi is so human and real. Love her authenticity ❤! Nick your time will definitely come!
LETS GO NIC..YOU ARE A NATURAL!! ♥️🖤💛❤️💪🏾💫⚡️🤴🏾👑
Loved this interview from both perspectives. Nick reminds me very much of Andre Agassi in the beginning of his career - loads of natural talent, but it wasn’t until after his injury that he really began to take tennis seriously. And once he did, he became an even bigger legend. I feel like Nick was just starting to really figure it out before he got injured. Once he comes back, watch out world!
Touching personal anecdotes about Kobe!
Wonderful relaxed and open conversation, loved it! Kudos to both. Nick and Naomi are a dream team ❤🔥🔥🎾🎾

Beautiful chat by very talented tennis players! Naomi you inspire so many brown people that aspire to be future tennis/business personas. Any setbacks experienced are just to strengthen your goals and can only propel you forward. Nick thank you for taking a break to work on yourself it’s evident and well done!it’s very exciting to see you back in tennis. Stay focus on you game and in the moment even if you must change strategy during the match remember it’s your moment and you control the narrative in any tennis match! Don’t allow any opponent to push your buttons, you are in control, manage your thoughts and make sure they serve you. Negative thoughts require too much energy, preserve your energy and limit your focus to only positivity during matches and win. You can do it Nick!I Wishing tons of success and joy in your lives🤍
Great interview
Some great thoughts here. I loved that match on Rod Laver with Rafa - we were there - how powerful you athletes can be! Change the world between you!
Excellent show and interview, I love you both, you both are amazing inspiration to all, May God bless you both!!!
Much respect to you both. Never realized how well versed you two are. Think I would like to see you two as a mixed doubles team in the future.❤
Loved this, I’m definitely inspired. The Lion quote from Kobe was so profound 🤯

Advice for Nick: This is the time for you to advance up the ladder. There's so much controversy going on you can take advantage of it. Get back out there and win.
Love you Naomi...... Nick hope you have grown up now.
Yes! This!!
Great work nick....love me some Nick and nee nee

とても面白かったです。Naomiさんのインタビューや、対談の動画では、成功を経験した人の本音が聞ける気がして、これから自分が自分を偽る事なく、次の一歩をどう進むか、気持ちよく考える事ができるヒントを得られる気がしています。

I don't believe Novak thought much about losing to Kyrgios. He lost to a great player..
In this video, you can tell Naomi isn't much of a talker. And Nick tried his best to fill in. This is also what I try to do when I come across non-talkative people.
Nick, please come back to Wimbledon this year, and win it!
❤❤
Osaka was really good. I think she should just retire and start her new chapter. This. Cause her losing in the early rounds is embarrassing to her legacy.
とても素敵なお話でした。 なおみちゃん、Kyrgios、 ありがとう😌
Interesting...two of my favorite players on the WTA an ATP. I fvcks with them especially Nick when people don't like his attitude at times. They are very real, talented and bad asses on the court. Get Coco and Shelton on there soon Nick! #TeamKyrgios #TeamOsaka

Osaka likes him. They should date. Nick will be a great dad

Bros down tremendously bad
“before you’re a tennis player, you’re a human” is what majority of Nick Kyrgios haters need to open their minds and realise. The growth on and off court that this man has shown is insane, and what’s even more insane is that some people are blind to that and just mindlessly hate on the guy.
I wish Naomi had kept that winning run instead of deciding to become a mother, but I understand as a woman she has other priorities aside from tennis

No elephants except you. Educate yourself. Charges were dropped. Naomi knew Kobe personally and learned many life lessons from him including how to deal with a hostile press and social media pile ons. He was a wonderful and inspiring person for millions, fully supported by his entire family throughout his life. When Nick is doing a show on sportspeople who have inspired millions through their moral perfection you can come to the front of the line.
