Bad Boy Nick Kyrgios plays it safe in ESPN booth with John McEnroe.

Serving Aces has a special guest in Coach Eric Riley from Philadelphia.  Riley coached Lisa Raymond and Pam Shriver. Riley graduated from Penn and was the first Black Captain of the Penn tennis team.  He now coaches rising junior tennis players and travels the country helping their development in tournaments and practice weeks.

Alexandra calls it her "Coaches Corner" on Day 2 of the Australian Open.  The trio discusses the matches from Day 1 and what is happening in Day 2.  The topic of the show is about players of the Australian Open 2024.  Alexandra talks Novak, Osaka, Gauff and more. Riley says tennis is an amazing sport and understands there's only a handful of players who can get through a Grand Slam.  Riley thinks Ben Shelton is his player of the tournament.  Novak is the favorite, Riley agrees.  He throws Tsitsipas in as a tough player who may make it.

Nick Kyrgios, known for his bad boy image, makes his debut in the ESPN booth with John McEnroe, calling the Tsitsipas match.  McEnroe baits him several times including calling Tsitsipas' father "the old man" and Kyrgios just says oh, the father is a good support.  McEnroe says am I talking to Nick Kyrgios.  Who are you?  McEnroe continues to try and get Kyrgios to do something outrageous.  It doesn't happen.  Boring for sure to McEnroe.

They talk service motions and Andy Roddick abbreviating Coco Gauff's serve.
