John McEnroe has paid Nick Kyrgios a major compliment with the controversial Aussie set to star in the first episode of the new Netflix tennis series.
Break Point will premiere on Friday, January 13, with the opening instalment of the docuseries titles 'The Maverick'. It will focus largely on Kyrgios, following a year which saw him hit the headlines for both his sublime play and his behaviour.
The Canberra man reached a first Grand Slam final at Wimbledon, but was fined heavily along the way after a tempestuous third round clash with Stefanos Tsitsipas. At the US Open, he was also sanctioned financially after being found guilty of after yelling, and later spitting, at his player's box.
