Mr. Little and Mr. Jaffe
Because both players are named Jonathan, the tournament announcer must refer to both players as Mr. Little and Mr. Jaffe. The repetition is getting a little tiresome for the man on the mic and he has occasionally flubbed their names as a result. These players are men no doubt, but both are still too young to be really used to being addressed so formally.
