The unseeded John Millman continued his unlikely run through the U.S. Open with a win over Roger Federer in the Round of 16 last night. I don’t think Millman ever expected to make it to the quarterfinals. You know why? Because he scheduled a fantasy football draft for early this morning.
Millman’s match against Federer didn’t finish until 1 a.m. During his post-match interview with ESPN, he revealed that his fantasy draft was supposed to start in just six hours.
“It’s 1 o’clock now. I probably should try to get a recovery. I’ve got a 7 o’clock in the morning fantasy draft,” Millman said.
