At that hour, there is no traffic, so it\u2019s like 25 minutes. They have a cocktail party, and then you go down to the dinner, where it\u2019s set up beautifully.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLaura Robson hosted, and she went up and gave a speech. You have some appetisers, and then Iga showed up at 10:30 pm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe came in, and you stand up. They made this cool video up on the Jumbotron. She holds up her trophy, and then you sit down.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSinner came at 00:05. I did not care, but he was just in the back hammering drinks with his team, having a good time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe came out with the trophy, and at some point, Laura Robson brought them both on stage.

Jannik did a good job; he was feeling good and made it really fun. He started twirling Iga, and then 45 seconds in, they were done dancing and went back to the table.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou had unbelievable food, wine, and then at 1 am, my wife and I were like, we have to go. We had a flight that day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a cool thing to be a part of. I had never known what it was like, but it was nice. I think I would go again, but I don\u2019t know.
