Andy Murray goes from Centre Court to the stage for a four-stop tour to talk about his tennis career

The Dell Technologies Hall of Fame in Newport is underway, and two players took a trip to Bowen's Wharf. Alex de Minaur and his compatriot Jordan Thompson hung out with fans and some fiesty lobsters.

"It was great seeing tennis fans, even around here, and they'll come along to the tournament, that's allw e can hope for," Thompson said.

De Minaur lost in three sets in the first round to Ivo Karlovic, 7-6, 6-7, 5-7. After the match, the 39-year-old had some advice for the youth (De Minaur is just 19).

After beating 19-year-old Alex de Minaur 6-7 7-6 7-5, I asked 39-year-old Ivo Karlovic what advice he would have given himself as a 19-year-old. His answer:

1) Eat better.
2) Go to bed earlier.
3) Don't go out as much.

Life lessons from Dr. Ivo.
