The first five episodes — focusing on Melbourne Park, Indian Wells, Madrid and Roland Garros — will be available next month. The season’s other five installments — which look at Wimbledon, Eastbourne, Queens Club, the U.S. Open, WTA Finals and ATP Finals — arrive in June.
Although I haven’t watched Formula 1: Drive to survive, I’ve heard nothing but good things about it, which means I’m stupidly excited to watch this new tennis version from the same team - “Break Point”.
Should be a very pleasant appetizer to the 2023 Australian Open, which somewhat controversially includes Novak Djokovic, despite his deportation before the 2022 Open.
