Serving Aces, Conversations with Alexandra Stevenson and co-host Hugues Laverdière discuss Novak Djokovic and his ATP tour Championship win on Sunday.  They talk about how his forehand went to another level from Wimbledon, Cincinnati, and the US Open - to now.  They take apart his majestic serve - 70 percent first serves and 64 percent second serves against Jannick Sinner in the Finals.

Ougi's corner talks about how to handle nerves with breathing.  Ougi talks how you display confidence on the tennis court.  Alexandra discusses her Olympian Russian Wrestling coach -  who taught her to breathe during Wimbledon 1999 - when she went from qualifying to the semifinals.

Alexandra discusses Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift - and how Kelce is now a fashion question mark with his style.  Vogue says he has stepped it up and he is looking for another fashion level.  Look for Travis and Taylor to team up for fashion ads, for sure.

Alexandra explores the Las Vegas Formula One Race with superstar Max Verstappen, the the best Formula One racer - he's won everything.  He's 26 year old.  Belgian-Dutch, but races under the Dutch flag, with Red Bull racing.  Tennis Players Tommy Paul and Taylor Fritz showed up in Vegas.  They brought their Instagram-influencer girl friends.  Justin Bieber showed up.  Big stars - all to see Max.  Alexandra teaches Ougi the Max Verstappen theme song - a song her teenage tennis students sing.

Shout out to Deion Sanders.  Alexandra says she believes - and Coach Prime never gives up.

Novak gets the Podcast quote: "I am grateful to life."
