Jason– So when you're flying all over, you got the jet lag. Does it affect the mind or the body more?
Ben– The body, but then the body affects the mind. I mean as soon as you start thinking about, ‘oh, I'm not feeling good physically going on the court, you're not in a good place. But I haven't had it too bad, other than Australia, Australia got me. That was my first time out of the country and I went all the way to Australia.
Chris– Oh, wow. That's as far as you can go.
Ben– That first week was pretty bad.
Jason– Federer's old ass is feeling a lot more than you are. Enjoy it while you can.
Chris– What's the diet looking like?
Ben– I'm not crazy restrictive. I have a balanced diet.
Chris– But you don't have a nutritionist or anything?
Ben– I don't. I mean, my physio helps me.
Chris– He's in your ear a little bit.
Ben– Yeah, he's in my ear. My coach is in my ear.
Chris– He's flushing the flaming hot Cheetos down the toilet?
Ben– That's something that I could look at. But I also think that the more that you really get hyper-focused on those things, maybe it'd be something that's detrimental to me.
Chris– I kind of agree. If you're good now, there's no reason to.
Jason– Are you going to do anything else in New York? Do you have time for any non tennis activities? Go shopping?
Ben– We'll see. I mean, I'm trying to stay low-key this week. Locked in. I really want to do well here at the US Open. So that's the priority. And then if I have a few days when I'm done, then hopefully...
Chris– It's going to be the good stuff. All right, well look, enjoy your time in New York and good luck at the US Open.
Ben– I appreciate it, thank you.
