Serena Williams’ former coach on why the King Richard movie left Jennifer Capriati and her mom disappointed

On the ‘No Challenges Remaining’ podcast, Serena’s first professional coach talked about if he had spoken to Capriati regarding the King Richard film. He said, “No, I actually sent her an e-mail because I did something on YouTube about what we just talked about. I talked about me training her and I talked about how I wished to put that in the movie and the whole thing about how she was portrayed, her and her mom were little disappointed, to say the least.”

Further, he went on to add, “But at the end of the day, I think that even for her, I think would be like a lot of closure and I think would be like refreshing for someone to do a movie about her life, and who knows, I might go home and send her an e-mail and just put a bug in her ear because it’s real and it’s true and you can’t get better than real and truth. And not come back and say, I got top-10, I became Number 1 and I won three Grand Slams. You can’t make this stuff up and I think that would inspire so many people just like the King Richard movie.”
