When do Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz play in ‘The Netflix Slam’ in Las Vegas?

Earlier this month the streaming giant announced that it would be broadcasting its unique event live on its platform. Billed as the ‘Battle of the Spaniards’ the match will feature a 22-time Grand Slam winner and the man currently ranked at No. 2 in the world. Let’s get into it.

What is the Netflix Slam?

In simple form, the Netflix Slam is a special event being staged by the universally popular streaming platform. While there will be other matches played - to be announced at a later date - the event will be headlined by a match between Tennis legend Rafael Nadal and current world No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz in Las Vegas, Nevada.

“I’m honored and so happy to be sharing the court with Rafa in Las Vegas,” US Open and Wimbledon champion Alcaraz told Netflix earlier this month. “He’s an all-time great, of course, and his records and achievements speak for themselves.” His opponent echoed similar sentiments as well. “I’m very excited for my first visit to Las Vegas,” Nadal said. “I’m also very excited to be playing with my fellow countryman Carlos Alcaraz. I am sure it will be a fantastic night of Tennis.”

When and where is the Netflix Slam?

The Netflix Slam will stream live globally on Sunday, March 3rd at 3:30 p.m. ET. As mentioned above, the event will be staged in Las Vegas, Nevada, however, more specifically matches will be played at the Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort, with MGM Resorts International hosting.

Netflix has a special team for its Slam

Aside from the two major stars who are set to get down on the court, Netflix has also secured the services of several stars to assist off of the court. Indeed, on and off commentary as well as play-by-play analysis will be provided by the likes of Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick, Jim Courier, Mary Joe Fernández, and Patrick McEnroe, as well as Tennis analyst Prakash Amritraj and host Kay Adams. There is also a treat for Spanish speaking fans as the Netflix Slam will also be streamed in that language, with Feliciano López and David Ferrer handling the job.

Watch: Life Inside the Largest Aircraft Carrier in the World, Costing $13 Billion, in the Middle of the Ocean

Welcome back to the FLUCTUS channel for a feature of the Gerald R Ford Class, the world’s biggest aircraft carrier at sea. With a full load displacement of 100,000t and the 78m-wide flight deck, this amazing warship has the capacity to carry more than 75 aircraft and accommodate 4,539 personnel, including the ship’s company, air wing and other support staff. A carrier strike group is huge, consisting of roughly 7500 personnel. 1 Aircraft Carrier, 2 Guided Missile Cruisers, 2 Anti-Aircraft Warships, and 1-2 Anti-Submarine Destroyers or Frigates. 65 – 70 aircraft. Now multiply that by 11 for the US Navy alone. Maybe one day we’ll be able to spend all these billions of dollars toward something which isn’t for national defense, until then, I’m glad we’re able to do so. I was on the Oriskany and Ticonderoga between 66 and 69. Both ships had one enlisted mess. I remember during non flight days, it was get in line all day long. 2000 or so crew members waiting to get fed in a 3...

Abandoned Cat Is Adopted And He Can’t Stop Kissing His New Owner

Image
I am always saddened when we get a call at the shelter about an abandoned animal, but I’m also glad that I can help. In this story, a rescue center worker thanked the people who called them and did their best to rescue this cat.  Valentino was left on the street but luckily, a kind shelter worker found and rescued him.  This shabby orange cat was left on the street, presumably after his owners moved away. The shelter workers first thought he was a female cat because he was extremely malnourished and also neutered. The shelter worker that saved him says: “He just allowed to be picked up and he wasn’t moving. So it’s worse than I thought!” When they got to the veterinary clinic, the cat had a temperature, and as they examined him it was visible how skinny he was. His fur was shabby and he had patches of skin showing.  The vet examined him and his big forehead abscess.  He was in pretty ...
