Stefanos Tsitsipas is one of the tennis players expected to feature in the upcoming Netflix docuseries “Break Point.” Just like most of the other tennis players, the Greek sensation is extremely excited about the impact that this docuseries can have on tennis.
Stefanos Tsitsipas thinks Netflix’s “Break Point” will give viewers a “much deeper understanding” of tennis, and Casper Ruud hopes the program will have an effect on the sport similar to what “Drive to Survive” had on Formula One. Following the teaser’s release on Wednesday, anticipation is growing for the new all-access series, which will debut on January 13. Throughout the 2022 season, the show follows some of the top athletes in the world, giving viewers a glimpse into their lives both on and off the court.
“Fans are going to get a much deeper understanding of our sport and our lifestyles, something that is not easy to present,” said Stefanos, who is also well-known for his vlogs.
“You need a lot of footage and coverage, and you need to develop a level of intimacy with the players to allow them to let you into the journeys and experiences they have.
I feel fortunate to be one of the subjects for something like this. I’m not sure how much will be shown because I really don’t know, but if it focuses more on other players’ lives I’ll still be happy and interested to watch because it will show people how difficult it is to be a tennis player
. All people see is the glamour and success but there is way more than that behind the scenes.”Stefanos Tsitsipas in 2022
Ranked world no.4, the Greek played his last match on the 18th of November when he was overcome by world no.8 Andrey Rublev 3-6 6-3 6-2 in the round robin in the Nitto ATP Finals (draw).
At present, during this year the Greek has achieved a 61-24 match record. Tsitsipas clinched 2 titles in 2022 in Monte-Carlo and Mallorca. Stefanos was the runner-up in Rotterdam, Rome, Cincinnati, Astana and Stockholm.
