@@JamesIsAway I mean it’s cute but how much of your actual personality is shown by recalling trivia knowledge to a camera? It just seems like so much of the players’ off-court time is devoted to media (interviews, press conferences, ads, branding, etc.) that this just seems unnecessary. I think players’ personality is often expressed already during press conferences, on-court & off-court interviews, on-court antics, and through social media. Maybe I’d be more sympathetic if these games featured more players who are not as accustomed to the spotlight (ie players like Taro Daniel who only got 1 question in his last post conference press conference). Right now it just comes off as ATP milking the top players for content even if it’s pretty saccharine content that only really superficially highlights their personality.
