Touchdown! Kirk Cousins gave tennis a shot and realized how much it carried over to playing quarterback

When it comes to long flights, Sebastian Korda is prepared from head to toe, showing off his noise-canceling headphones and lucky travel socks in a new video produced by the ATP tour.

“We travel a lot, so we try to protect the body as best we can,” Korda explains.

When the 21-year-old isn’t sleeping through a redeye, he’s catching up on old cartoons, streaming them on his laptop.

“You can watch The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Tom and Jerry. I just got into that and it’s been taking up my time when I’m relaxing.”

Korda in the midst of a charge up the ATP rankings, earning a career-high of No. 38 at the end of a breakthrough 2021 season—one that saw him reach his first final in Delray Beach and win his first title at the Emilia-Romagna Open in Parma.

Making his Australian Open main-draw debut in January, he upset BNP Paribas Open champ Cameron Norrie en route to the third round.
