Lack of Cooperation From Novak Djokovic, Coco Gauff, and Rafael Nadal Puts Famous Tennis Series’ Hopes in Jeopardy

Docuseries in sports have been a game-changer, haven’t they? Take the example of Drive to Survive, a docuseries based on Formula 1 that gives a sneak-peak of exclusive, intimate access to the people in one of the world’s greatest racing competitions. Earlier this year, a docuseries on tennis, Break Point, was also released. However, months after its inception, the series is facing an uncertain future due to the likes of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Coco Gauff.

Season 1 of the Netflix series featured the likes of Nick Kyrgios, Taylor Fritz, and Stefanos Tsitsipas. However, big names like Djokovic were absent from that season. Here’s why the series is in potential danger.

Break Point faces a grim future due to the likes of Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal

While Formula 1: Drive to Survive has garnered much appreciation and success, Break Point has failed to live up to its expectations. Although there was much hype surrounding this series earlier this year, it died down quickly. Moreover, it also faces an uncertain future because of some of the legends of the game.

It is revealed that, “Break Point is tracking to be all done after this season airs. Lack of cooperation from Novak Rafa and Coco in particular has kneecapped the series.” It seems that F1 has won the race towards glory when it comes to viewership.

The docuseries on tennis has failed to live up to the hype caused by the success of its Formula 1 counterpart. As a result, it has received mixed reviews. Additionally, with the absence of the likes of Djokovic, Nadal, and Gauff, it has failed to draw in the viewers. Further, American tennis star, Reilly Opelka, also gave a brutal opinion about this series once.

Reilly Opelka makes a strong confession

The tallest American tennis star bashed the Break Point docuseries in a stirring revelation. Opelka did not enjoy the series at all and this was apparent from his serious revelation.

He said, “I think mainly transparency. I mean you look at a few sports that have done Netflix series now F1, Golf, Tennis. Tennis finished third by a mile. I don’t, I don’t get why the truth is such a controversial um, I know its an opinion, but I don’t think it’s a crazy radical thought that, that was a boring show. I thought that was, from the first episode I thought that was horrible.”

While the future remains uncertain, the docuseries will aim to woo some fans in its coming season. However, what happens after that will solely depend on how the coming season performs. What do you think? Let us know in the comments section.
