Nick Kyrgios has opened up on his drink problem and his “hurt” at racism in the new Netflix tennis series out this week.
And the Wimbledon finalist dated his unhappiness back to his instant fame following his shock SW19 win over Rafa Nadal in 2014. Break Point is aimed at taking the sport to a new, younger audience after the runaway success of Drive to Survive for Formula 1.
The tennis version, which is released on the eve of the Australian Open, gives behind-the-scenes access to a new generation of sexy stars like Matteo Berrettini, Taylor Fritz, Ajla Tomjlanovic and Paula Badosa. But the first of the 10-part series called The Maverick focuses on Aussie No.1 - and his struggles on and off the court - during his home Grand Slam last year.
