Well, it is the new talk of the town in the tennis realm. The idea behind the curse is that the players who have featured in the docuseries, ‘Break Point’ have a tendency to crash out of the ongoing Australian Open, for one reason or another. Nick Kyrgios went out because of an injury and Matteo Berrettini lost the first-round match against Andy Murray.

Taylor Fritz too agreed that he has heard about the rumors. However, he also stated that he does not believe that he would lose because of being in the docuseries. Turns out, he was right. Fritz had an easy win against Nikoloz Basilashvili in the first round.
