Monica Seles: I’d hate to be next door to her on her wedding night.

Framed as a quip about tennis star Monica Seles, the line trades on Ustinov’s reputation for urbane, slightly risqué one-liners. The joke hinges on Seles’s famously loud on-court grunting: by imagining her “wedding night,” Ustinov extends that public athletic sound into a private setting, implying it would be comically disruptive for anyone nearby. The humor is observational and hyperbolic rather than descriptive of Seles personally; it turns a widely remarked sporting mannerism into a social vignette. Read critically, it also reflects how female athletes’ bodies and sounds are often sexualized or mocked in popular commentary.
