There’s not much I can give in the way of context for this video. The excited announcer is commentating in Italian, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the race was in Italy. There are no races worth filming happening in Italy right now, and also it’s winter, so this grainy footage is probably old.

Even You, Wasting Time At Your Job Right Now, Are Not Phoning It In As Badly As This Tennis Player

Bernard Tomic is the second-best prospect from Australia and now, miraculously, the first-best at not giving a shit.
