Dolgopolov also had an autoimmune disease (Gilbert's syndrome) he fought throughout his career that limited him.

Also, I was once in a group interview with him where he talked about car racing tracks for like 10 minutes with a ton of passion and this says he races, (https://www.atptour.com/en/news/dolgopo ... april-2021)

And his instagram says he's designing and renting out AirBnBs in Kyiv, so there's that :)

Good for him. I remember her had a Nissan GT, a pseudo monster of a car that is basically a street legal racer. So, if he likes to race, there are plenty of categories to choose from. But if he races like he plays tennis, a menace to all other drivers.

Wasn't Dolgo also designing and/or playing video games? That is a huge revenue source.

Tsitsipas could score an invitation now. You know he'd be up for wearing something crazy.

And it would get next to no attention outside of Greek and tennis media because no one else knows who the heck he is.

That's tight but it's right.

Listen, Naomi is easily getting 4th place mentions as the co-host here. Easily. I'm guessing most tennis fans think it'd be second or third among those announced, but no it's easily fourth. So Tsitsipas? Not remotely on anyone's radar.

It all depends where you live. I've never heard of any of the other co-hosts...

As for Tsitsipas a Greek TV show would be a lot more appropriate. At least until he wins USO couple times or something like that.

Right. The media hates discovering the next big thing who is mythologically good looking.

Didn't realize everyone here takes the Met Gala guest list deadly seriously. :)

That's not where you live though @suliso, but your interests. Not knowing the one isn't surprising. The other two are have large international followings, with one qualifying for you for living under a rock status if you haven't heard of her. 😊

One, he's not that good looking especially in a Met Gala context. And two, if you think Stefanos is the next big thing outside of tennis, you think much more of him than I do.

Not taking Met Gala "deadly serious" but a few of us have posted about it on the forum for several years so we do know it well. Stefanos wouldn't register a blip on the radar unless he scores a date that is much, much more famous than he is.
