Fritz in an interview with the telegram, said, “I’m scared. I’m scared of how things can be cut up. Especially because I haven’t tried to filter myself at all. Yeah, I’ve tried to just be very, very genuine. But they can cut things however they want to cut things.” The 24-year-old tennis player was so confused that he didn’t know where to watch the movie or if should he even watch the movie he took part in.

The biggest fear for the American tennis player was that people might take the 27-year-old tennis player, Kyrgios, as a villain. Fritz said, “They could cut it up to make Nick look such an amazing guy. And then they could also cut it up to make him look like the villain, which I feel like they might do just because that’s how a lot of people in tennis see him – even though I think he’s great for the sport.”
