So, here's the dilemma for Alex de Minaur.
The wife of one of his best mates is to about to play in the first round of Wimbledon and maybe, just maybe, Australia's No.1 men's player might have a few useful tips to pass on to her as he has some good inside info on her opponent.
Ah, just one problem. The woman de Minaur has the inside track on just happens to be his girlfriend.
So it is the scene is set for an intriguing opening clash between Australian Daria 'Dasha' Saville, on the comeback trail after a second wretched injury setback, and rising British star Katie Boulter.
And in their respective players' boxes on Tuesday will be Luke Saville, the Australian doubles player who is Daria's husband, and de Minaur, who's been dating Boulter for the past three years in a relationship that's so excited the British press that they've been dubbed Wimbledon's 'It Couple'.
So, come on, Alex, how do you solve this thorny one? Are you going to do your Australian duty and help Dasha for Tuesday's big opener?
"Ooo, no ... it's gonna be a great one," he smiles, skilfully leaving the question to fly harmlessly past the off stump.
"We've already been having a little bit of banter, Luke and I, about how we're going to be giving each other daggers from one side of the court to the other during the match.
"But it should be it a great match and, you know ... let the best woman win!"
Very diplomatically done. But Saville already thinks it's 'Advantage Dasha' as she fancies all the onus will be on the new British No.1, who's taken over as their main women's Wimbledon hope and much-hyped 'golden girl' in the absence of Emma Raducanu.
"Luke and Alex are pretty good friends," Saville smiled. "All the pressure is on her, I’ve nothing to lose, this is only my second tournament back.
"I will just go out there and compete as hard as I can and enjoy the tournament. For me it’s like another opportunity to just play. I’m just looking forward to restarting my career again."
Russian-born Saville is one of the most redoubtable fighters in the game, having not just battled back to the top after a bad Achilles injury but now having rebounded from a dreadful ACL rupture, suffered in a match with Naomi Osaka in Japan last September, that's once again forced her to reinvent her career at 29.
Thanks to her protected ranking, she's back at the All England Club, despite having just two matches at Edgbaston in a very quiet comeback while Australia were winning the first Test match just a mile down the road.
Asked what it would mean just to win the one match against Boulter, she smiled: "That would be cool, but I don’t think of it as a triumph. If I make second week, I will think of it, 'wow this is unreal'.
"It’s only my second tournament. I don’t think about winning or losing, all I think about is how cool is it to be able to compete and experience this feeling, the adrenaline, being nervous before a match, being in a tough situation and I look forward to that."
And with just two Australian women in the draw alongside Storm Hunter, she smiled: "I can be the hero if you want me to be, I don’t mind that!
"I am definitely in a good position as I have literally nothing to lose. I am going to play free."
