An Engaging Conversation: Vasek Pospisil and Denis Shapovalov
Vasek Pospisil: Hey Denis, great to catch up with you, man! How’s life treating you on the tour lately?
Denis Shapovalov: Oh, Vasek! It’s good to see you. Yeah, things have been pretty wild lately. Lots of travel, training, and you know, trying to squeeze in some time for music.
Vasek Pospisil: Music, huh? Still jamming with your guitar? I remember that time you rocked out in the players’ lounge. Any new tracks up your sleeve?
Denis Shapovalov: (Laughs) Yeah, man, always got a few new riffs. It’s my escape, you know? Helps me unwind after all that intensity on court. Speaking of escapes, I’ve been hearing that you’re doing some entrepreneurial stuff. How’s that going?
Vasek Pospisil: Oh yeah, it’s been exciting! I’ve been working on a few projects and investing in some startups. It’s a whole new world but it’s fascinating, and it’s really rewarding to see things grow from the ground up.
Denis Shapovalov: That’s awesome! Any cool projects we should keep an eye on?
Vasek Pospisil: Actually, yes! I’ve been involved with a company that’s working on sustainable sportswear. We’re really trying to push the envelope on eco-friendly materials. Just trying to do our bit for the planet, you know?
Denis Shapovalov: Very cool. Speaking of pushing the envelope, I’ve seen your workouts on Instagram. You’ve been crushing it, man! Any tips for the rest of us mere mortals?
Vasek Pospisil: (Laughs) Thanks, Denis! I think it’s all about consistency and mixing things up. I love incorporating different sports, like basketball and even a bit of yoga. Keeps things interesting and really helps with flexibility.
Denis Shapovalov: Yoga, huh? Maybe I should give that a shot. My backhand could use a little extra flexibility. Maybe we should have a yoga session next time we’re at the same tournament. What do you say?
Vasek Pospisil: Sounds like a plan! And hey, I’ll bring my yoga mat if you bring your guitar. Deal?
Denis Shapovalov: Deal! It’s a date. See you on—and off—the court, buddy.
Vasek Pospisil: Absolutely. Here’s to more music, yoga, and smashing those tennis goals. Cheers, Denis!
