Second Serve

 


The Delray Beach Open conducted a casting call this week.

Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon are among the actors who won prized roles.

Watch: Tennis Academy Awards

In celebration of the Academy Awards on Sunday, Delray Beach MC and Tennis Now contributor Blair Henley posed a simple question to several players: Who would you cast to play yourself in a movie about your life?

See their interesting replies in the video above.

In addition to Pit, DiCaprio and Damon, Ryan Gosling, star of Academy Award-nominated La La Land, was a popular pick.

Grand Slam doubles champion Leander Paes is partial to Johnny Depp, while senior player Vince Spadea selected Scent of a Woman star Al Pacino as the ideal actor to step into the demanding Spadea Ain't Afraid of Ya role. 

“Al Pacino, passionate, emotional, athletic... maybe,” Spadea says in the video above.

Milos Raonic owns a rocket serve, but chose our favorite cool-hand actor as his dream choice.

Who would you cast in the role of your favorite player?
