-
By now, you all know my executive producer, Andy, is
-
very, very, very, very average.
-
[AUDIENCE APPLAUSE]
-
Not in every way, but in most ways, he's very average.
-
And last week we sent him to the U.S. Open
-
to play tennis with some of the best tennis
-
players in the world.
-
Here's how he did.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
[THEME SONG]
-
[SINGING] He's an executive producer on the Ellen Show.
-
He works hard every day.
-
He's super, duper awesome at what he does,
-
but he's average in every other way.
-
Hi, how are you?
-
Nice to see you.
-
Nice to see you.
-
I took that 23andMe test, you know, the DNA thing.
-
And it said, this is true, that I had the same makeup
-
as an elite athlete.
-
There you go.
-
So my question to you is, I don't play tennis.
-
But if I started right now--
-
Yeah.
-
Once a week, for an hour, how long till I
-
could play in something like this?
-
In a tournament like this?
-
Never.
-
What would it be?
-
Never.
-
Unfortunately--
-
Really?
-
Yes.
-
Twice a week, I would need to do it?
-
Congratulations on winning Wimbledon.
-
Thank you very much.
-
That's a huge deal.
-
Well, yeah.
-
It felt very special.
-
We're very similar that way.
-
Because last year a lot of people
-
didn't think we would win the daytime Emmy for best show,
-
which I'm sure you know we did.
-
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-
And that was, so I know that we both are under the lights
-
and we know pressure.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
OK, so here's what I have.
-
I have a backhand.
-
Uh-huh.
-
Forehand.
-
Uh-huh.
-
Serve.
-
Whoa.
-
And then when I win a point--
-
Wait, where do you get this form from?
-
Jewish summer camp is the only time I played.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
Show me your forehand.
-
I do it that way.
-
Oh, you follow through?
-
Do the base like this--
-
And this and finish here.
-
You guys saw that?
-
He put his arm around--
-
we full on had a Ghost moment.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
[MUSIC - RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS, "UNCHAINED MELODY"]
-
[SINGING] Oh, my love.
-
My darling--
-
How is this the best thing they have for me to change in?
-
Honestly.
-
Can we do a bathroom?
-
Jesus [BLEEP]
-
[MUSIC PLAYING]
-
So what do your serves clock at?
-
I've hit 156 before.
-
Let's keep it down around 140 today.
-
All right, here we go.
-
Dude, if he hits me, I'm done.
-
All right, you ready?
-
Oh, God.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
Why are you laughing?
-
It almost went over the net.
-
How long have you been playing?
-
What age did you start?
-
I started when was four.
-
At about 10, it was when I fully committed to it.
-
Right.
-
And then I went pro when I was 14.
-
Same.
-
Yeah.
-
You ready?
-
Yeah.
-
Got your big girl pants on?
-
[MUSIC PLAYING]
-
Yeah, I'm going to run you, is what I'm going to do.
-
I'm using an undersized racquet, so that's why.
-
[LAUGHTER]
-
Oh.
-
OK.
-
I wasn't ready.
-
Now you're trying to hit me.
-
You're impressive at this.
-
I'll give you that.
-
How's it going?
-
Twins.
-
I have twins.
-
No really?
-
At what age did they go, oh, these guys got something?
-
We started playing tennis at two.
-
Right.
-
We had 100 trophies by seven.
-
My kids are 12.
-
They have one participation trophy for roller hockey.
-
You?
-
Mine.
-
You?
-
You?
-
You!
-
Go.
-
Are you going to play at all?
-
It's a stupid sport.
-
Hey, Andy.
-
Finally, thank you for doing this.
-
Nice to see you.
-
Let's go, Andy.
-
Let's go.
-
Oh, God.
-
You got it.
-
You got it, got it.
-
Got it.
-
Come on, come on, come on.
-
No holding back.
-
Wait.
-
Come one, come on, come one.
-
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
-
That was out.
-
That was in.
-
Come on, man.
-
Ah, good luck.
-
Good luck.
-
Oh, yeah.
-
And you do this thing where you're running,
-
and you hit it like that.
-
What's that called?
-
It's called a Tweener.
-
Because like weiner?
-
Tweener.
-
Not weiner.
-
OK.
-
You're Swiss, right?
-
I'm Swiss, yeah.
-
Good cheese.
-
Let's see your back hand.
-
You made a big mistake there.
-
I know.
-
Oh, wait.
-
I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to do this.
-
Oh, no, we're not using that.
-
Here;s what I need you to do.
-
Let me help you out.
-
Stop with the instructions.
-
I need you to just win this.
-
ok.
-
OK.
-
Ah.
-
No.
-
I got it, I got it, I got it, I got it.
-
Oh, he did a weiner.
-
You.
-
You.
-
No, you.
-
No.
-
Chaos won that point.
-
You guys have actually won matches?
-
What does it feel like to be ranked number one in the world?
-
I've never been ranked anything at anything.
-
I think you're pretty good at what you do.
-
Of course, you're with Ellen.
-
Can you call me every morning and make me feel good?
-
Yes, yes, yes.
-
Because when you work with Ellen, I don't get any of this.
-
You know what?
-
I'm going have you record it on my phone,
-
so you don't have to call me.
-
I'll just keep listening to it.
-
Hey, Andy, switch off all the lights.
-
Close your eyes.
-
Dive deep, deep into meditative state.
-
And listen to my voice.
-
You are the best-looking tennis player in the world.
-
You are amazing human being that is the best in what he does.
-
I'm quitting Ellen.
-
And take that into new day, raise your confidence.
-
And believe in yourself.
-
Love you, buddy.
-
Take care.
-
[APPLAUSE]
-
[MUSIC PLAYING]
-
I love you so much, Andy.
-
We'll be right back.
