Break Point Episode 7 Recap: Kyrgios' Wimbledon Breakthrough

Spoiler:

Summary of Episode 7, 'Saints and Sinners'
Could Nick Kyrgios go all the way at Wimbledon and win his first major title as a singles player?

That was the main theme of the seventh episode of Break Point, the second of the newly released batch. The episode picked up in the middle of the Australian’s showdown with Stefanos Tsitsipas, which was full of tension. After winning, Kyrgios walked off court and told the Netflix camera crew, “I can’t wait for this press conference bro.”

The pair traded barbs in the media, but all that mattered was that Kyrgios advanced through the draw.


For a talented player who had not always fulfilled his potential, a breakthrough performance seemed within arm’s reach. But perhaps the most intriguing moment of the episode came when the crew filmed Kyrgios — safely through to the semi-finals after defeating Cristian Garin — watching the end of the quarter-final between Rafael Nadal and Taylor Fritz. Interestingly the Australian admitted to preferring a showdown with Nadal, whom he called the “greatest of all time”.

The Spaniard won the match, but withdrew before the semi-finals. Suddenly, Kyrgios stood on the precipice of history, one victory from becoming Wimbledon champion.

Expert Patrick Mouratoglou said of Kyrgios’ opponent, Novak Djokovic: “Beating Novak at Wimbledon probably the highest mountain to climb for any tennis player.”

The episode diverted from that storyline to focus on Tunisian Ons Jabeur, who was quickly becoming a superstar. Behind-the-scenes footage showed the photoshoots and commercial opportunities adding up. Jabeur even played doubles with sporting icon Serena Williams in Eastbourne.

“Just a girl from Tunisia”, she quickly became an icon for girls throughout the world. Her husband Karim Kamoun encouraged her to keep dreaming and Jabeur revealed her biggest aspiration.

“I have one dream in my mind now,” she said: winning Wimbledon.

“[It would be] something big for the whole sport in the world,” her husband later said.



Jabeur ultimately fell short to Elena Rybakina, who also eliminated Break Point star Ajla Tomljanovic. But both Jabeur and Tomljanovic showed growth through defeat and despite their tough losses, gained plenty of fans along the way.

The end of the episode focused on Kyrgios' shot at Djokovic and glory.

“I’m a kid from Canberra,” Kyrgios said. “I’m not supposed to be here. But I’m here.”

The Australian made a perfect start against Djokovic, but it did not prove enough. The Serbian showed his experience in calm and patience, which ultimately allowed him to turn the tide and halt Kyrgios’ title chase.

Nick fell short, but proved that he is more than just potential. Andy Roddick was complimentary of the Aussie.

“He grew a lot this year,” the former World No. 1 said. “I didn’t think he’d ever be able to put it together and make a deep run at a Slam. He almost won Wimbledon.”

Break Point Episode 8 Recap: Fritz's US Open, Ajla Takes On Serena

Spoiler:

Summary of Episode 8, 'Fairytale in New York'
The highs in tennis can be incredible and the lows can be crushing. That was clearly shown in Episode 8 of Break Point.

Ajla Tomljanovic suffered a devastating defeat in Episode 7, when she let slip her lead against eventual champion Elena Rybakina at Wimbledon. The Australian was so close to glory and yet so far.

But part of the beauty of professional tennis is that there is always the next tournament. It did not take long for Tomljanovic to earn her shot at redemption. The hustle and bustle of the US Open proved the perfect setting for her moment in the spotlight.

The legendary Serena Williams was poised to “evolve” away from tennis at the final major of the season. That became the focus of the tournament.

“If she’s playing her best, no one can beat her,” Tomljanovic said.

Watch Episode 8 Trailer:


Little did Tomljanovic know she would be in line to stop the American’s hopes of a dream run.

Andy Roddick said of Williams: “Serena puts on a show and has the crowd in the palm of her hand. She’s potentially the most intimidating player in history.”

Tomljanovic made it clear Williams was the reason she dreamed as a kid. Her father was a professional handball player in Croatia, but their family moved to the United States to help Ajla pursue her dreams.

Now she was set to stand across the net from Williams inside Arthur Ashe Stadium.

The tremendous Break Point access paid dividends in footage of Tomljanovic FaceTiming with her cousin’s boyfriend, Felix Auger-Aliassime, who had been upset earlier in the tournament.

“You got this girl,” the Canadian said after providing his advice.

What does it look like before playing the biggest match of your life? Tomljanovic was at dinner with family and friends. Inevitably, the topic of Ajla facing her idol came up. Her father injected humour into the conversation when he joked of the upcoming match, “Hey guys, we are f***ed!”

Back in her hotel room, Tomljanovic received a call from Chris Evert, who said, “You’ve got to show some balls out there”. Ajla had a book on her bedside table titled You Are A Badass by Jen Sincero.

Tomljanovic withstood the pressure to stun Williams and end the legend’s final US Open. It was a moment she worked towards her whole life and the Australian rose to the occasion.



Taylor Fritz carried the weight of the world on his shoulders leading into the US Open, where he hoped to capture his first major title.

“No one really cares if you’re like five in the world in tennis,” said Fritz, explaining the importance of the majors.

The American and his girlfriend Morgan Riddle were in the car on the way to the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center for Fritz’s first-round match against Brandon Holt. Riddle picked up on potential nerves, which Fritz denied having.

But from feeling he was a title contender one moment, Fritz was out of the draw the next. He suffered a backbreaking defeat in the opening round. After the match, the American had a frustrated debrief in the locker room with coach Michael Russell and then shared an emotional moment with his family, including an extended embrace with his father.

Fritz said: “I really felt like I let myself down and I let a lot of people down."

Break Point Episode 9 Recap: Tiafoe's Big Moment Against Nadal

Spoiler:

Summary of Episode 9, 'Under Pressure'
Frances Tiafoe is box-office material, and Episode 9 of Break Point proved it.

The American made his long-awaited Netflix debut in the penultimate episode of Season 1 and it did not take long to show why fans around the world have fallen in love with him.

“If you get a chance to change your life, you’ve got to grab it with both hands,” he said.

Tiafoe’s parents came from Sierra Leone. His mother was a nurse who worked two jobs and his father was a maintenance worker at a tennis facility in College Park, Maryland. Sometimes Tiafoe would stay at the tennis centre and was able to play for free. Nobody in the family could have imagined Frances would end up competing on the biggest stages in the world.

Expert Patrick Mouratoglou said: “He’s one of the most incredible stories in our sport.

“Frances represents better than anyone the American dream.”

Fans were also introduced to Tiafoe’s girlfriend, Ayan Broomfield, whom he began dating when they were 17. They often tell each other, “Let’s change our lives.”

Tiafoe had the opportunity to do just that against all-time great Rafael Nadal in the fourth round of the 2022 US Open.

“I’m so pumped up for today,” Tiafoe told his coach Wayne Ferreira during practice ahead of the match. “I’m coming after his motherf***er, bro.”

Follow The Cast Of ATP Tour | Break Point

In the gym right before the players walked onto the court, Ferreira — who was shown to be the "old-school coach" Tiafoe needs — gave his charge a final piece of advice:

“You can do this,” Ferreira said. “Nothing to lose.”

Tiafoe certainly played that way, sending the raucous New York crowd into a frenzy all evening long en route to the biggest win of his career. “He shocked the entire tennis world,” Broomfield said.

Tiafoe eventually lost to Carlos Alcaraz in a thrilling semi-final, but he won despite the defeat. It was about motivating kids and showing them what is possible.

“I want to keep inspiring people,” he said.

Tiafoe was devastated in the locker room after falling short. But the USTA’s Eric Butorac told him former First Lady Michelle Obama would like to speak to him and they enjoyed a nice moment together.



A player whose run ended victoriously in the episode was World No. 1 Iga Swiatek.

“[She] will do everything in order to be the best. I like that,” Maria Sharapova said. “But when you see a perfect picture of someone, when they show you that they have everything under control, do they really?”

The answer was a resounding yes.

Break Point gave the viewer insight into the Polish superstar’s mindset. She explained she was never the most popular at school, but did not care. Swiatek prefers to put herself in a bubble ahead of important moments. She was content to spend time in her hotel room putting together a Lego figure. It was the calm before the storm.

“I feel like everybody is chasing me,” she said.

It did not matter. The only thing that came close to stopping her was a distraction in the form of Friends actor Matthew Perry on the big screen (Swiatek is a huge fan of the show). That was the first time she looked at the big screen the entire match.

But it was not able to stop the Pole from claiming another major title.

Break Point Executive Producer Pulls Curtain On Memorable Kyrgios Scene

Spoiler:

Learn how the show brought Kyrgios' mental struggles to the world
One of the most memorable moments from the first season of Netflix's Break Point came in Episode 6, which detailed Nick Kyrgios' mental struggles at Wimbledon in 2019.

It was revealed that Kyrgios checked into a psych ward in London that year. The Australian's father, George, sister, Halimah, and manager, Daniel Horsfall, shared emotional recollections of that period in Kyrgios' life.

“He has not told a soul what they said in there,” Horsfall said. “That conversation they had in that room, no one knows.”

Paul Martin, one of Break Point's executive producers, explained that it was Kyrgios who steered the production team towards sharing the moment.

"I think it is just a process. It was never a narrative that we tried to force. I think when you spend time around Nick, you understand that there's something bigger at play," Martin told ATPTour.com. "Clearly there's this stuff going on, stuff in his head and all that stuff. But it wasn't a case of saying, ‘Hey, listen, we really need to get to the bottom of this.’

"It was a case of us spending time with him and seeing him evolve as a person and a player from Australia to Wimbledon. And then just the trust that our production team had strung up with him that he felt that he was suddenly willing to share when he hadn't been before. When we started filming, I don't think we ever dreamt that we would go where we went with Nick. And I think that was driven by him. It wasn't driven by us and us trying to paint this kind of picture of Nick. It was a very open and honest perspective of himself, driven by Nick."

Follow The Cast Of ATP Tour | Break Point

According to Martin, the episode helped humanise Kyrgios and athletes in general.

"I think it was difficult, because everyone kind of looks from the outside at professional athletes, and they think that everything's harmonious in their home life and their personal life and their background. And therefore, when they go on court, they should behave in a certain way, or they go on a pitch and they should behave a certain way," Martin said. "What everyone tends to forget, I think the success of all our shows has always been about bringing that human element into these personalities and into these sports.

"Once you understand Nick's background and his story, maybe it doesn't excuse some of his behavior, but it certainly gives you an understanding, a different perspective on it. And I think that's what we tried to do.

Kyrgios wanted to provide a different perspective for fans, according to Martin.

"I think it's testimony to his kind of openness and honesty that he really went there. And he talked about it, when he'd really never talked about that stuff with anyone before," Martin said. "I think it was a real surprise to some of the people closest to him looking to really go to that depth and talk about those feelings that he dealt with, and had to face."

Break Point Episode 10 Recap: Does Fritz Earn 'Fully Legit' Win Over Nadal?

Spoiler:

Summary of Episode 10, 'One Last Chance'
The first season of Break Point wrapped by digging deeper with Taylor Fritz and getting to know WTA player Aryna Sabalenka.

The settings were the Nitto ATP Finals and the WTA Finals, the respective tours’ year-end championships.

“This is what everyone has their sights set on,” Fritz said.


The American for the first time in the series spoke about his son, Jordan, from a previous relationship.

“I just hope as he gets older he understands what I’m doing and understands what I’m trying to do,” Fritz said.

The American added: “When I told him that I’m not the best tennis player in the world he was a little surprised and a little disappointed that I’m not the best. He’s not easily impressed.”

It was a breakthrough season for Fritz, whom the show followed during his first ATP Masters 1000 title run in Indian Wells and then at his lowest point of the season at the US Open. But Turin was his chance to end 2022 on a high. He was set to face Rafael Nadal, whom he had beaten at Indian Wells and lost to at Wimbledon.

“I feel like he [Rafa] really wants to just come out tomorrow and just beat the s*** out of me because Indian Wells was his first loss of the year,” Fritz said in his hotel room, alongside girlfriend Morgan Riddle. “It’s going to be an interesting one. It’s a big match. And obviously I just can’t stop hearing it from like, ‘Oh Rafa had his rib injury, blah, blah, blah, he would have killed you if he was fine.’ I’m just like, ‘Shut the f*** up.’ I don’t know, I’m sick of everyone trying to discredit the win. I just want to win and I want it to be fully just legit.”

Fritz would defeat Nadal before falling to Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals to end the best season of his career.

The other player heavily featured in the final episode of Season 1 was Sabalenka. The show painted a picture of a player who has had both highs and lows.

“She’s intimidating,” Martina Navratilova said, complimenting Sabalenka and the powerful game she brings to the court.

On the other hand, Sabalenka has also gone through struggles both on and off the court, including due to Belarus' support of Russia's war in Ukraine. She went through a period in which she could not dial in her second serve, which became a hot topic throughout the tennis world.

Expert Paul Annacone said: “No matter what your level is, you’re only good as your mind lets you.”

Sabalenka, who is shown during a visit to her apparel sponsor as a fun, energetic personality, also went through tough times as she struggled off the court.

“I honestly thought I was going to stop playing tennis because it was so bad,” Sabalenka said in one clip.

The powerful righty fell just short of capturing the WTA Finals title in the championship match against Caroline Garcia. But in the closing montage she explained how much mentally stronger she felt than before. Sabalenka then proved prophetic.

“Next season it’s my year guys,” she said, flashing a wide smile and two thumbs up.

Netflix Q&A: Break Point With Stefanos Tsitsipas

Spoiler:

Greek discusses his own love of filmmaking, Kyrgios clash and more
Stefanos Tsitsipas has long been a fan of filmmaking, as evidenced by his creativity on social media as well as his YouTube channel, so it was no surprise to see the Greek participate in Netfflix’s Break Point filming.

The 2019 Nitto ATP Finals champion was featured in Episodes 6 and 7, with the main focus being his memorable clash against Nick Kyrgios at Wimbledon.

Tsitsipas spoke to ATPTour.com late last year about his experience filming Break Point, why he cares about more than the storylines featured and more.

Watch Episode 6 Trailer:


You always have loved filming and photography and videography. Was there anything particularly surprising from the whole Netflix experience?
How nice they were. The crew is so much fun to be working with. They were not just there to film, they were also very friendly and made the whole atmosphere very genuine for all of us to be part of this. They are a bunch of professionals that are trying to create nice memories with us. And I really appreciated them putting so much work into it. They seem quite smart as well.

Were there any times that you sort of wished the cameras weren't there?
No, but I had one moment where I actually felt grateful they were there with my match I think with Kyrgios at Wimbledon. It was a moment where [there was] so much drama, and I'm glad they filmed it.

Does it make you thankful that people are going to be able to see what actually happened and what you actually thought?
Yeah exactly, that's it. It opens for the truth to be told and shared and each person's perspective of things. It's good for the sport, it's good for the sport. Not everything has to be clean and beautiful and elegant...

They've been extremely respectful of things and I always told them yes in situations that I was comfortable [in]. They never really crossed any lines and made me feel uncomfortable. I didn't have moments where I felt like they stepped out of line.

Follow The Cast Of ATP Tour | Break Point

You're focused on your tennis, you're trying to win, but then you love this sort of stuff. So how did you balance the two?
I wouldn't consider it a distraction. It's something that our sport needed for a long time. People don't really see the behind the scenes, they only see us on TV performing, playing. Very few of us have YouTube channels where we get to expose some other things except our professional careers and tennis needed some of that open view. Everything is just so private these days with a lot of the players and it's important to showcase the personalities and the strong-minded people and athletes that are out there.

How much Netflix do you watch?
I had periods where I watched it a lot. I was browsing through different TV shows and movies. Currently, I'm not really following anything specific. But I did watch one TV show that I really liked Man Vs. Bee, Rowan Atkinson recently. [It is] a very high production in terms of filmmaking and I enjoy watching whenever I have free time, whenever I have a bit of time off.

But the thing is, I don't feel like I'm very productive when I watch Netflix. I'm a guy that always likes to go to sleep that night and feel like I've done something productive and important for myself, kind of seize the day as I like to say.

So do you want to binge Break Point when it comes out?
No, I will definitely not be binging anything. I'm watching it the proper way every single frame that's coming up.

So you don't want to just see the storylines. You want to see how they edited it together?
Everything. I want to see every single detail that they put in place, every single thing, the structure of it. I'm paying attention to every single thing. It's going to be very interesting because they've been following a few good personalities in our sport. And I would like to further see what stories they were able to film with those individuals, including myself, the variation, the storytelling and also the narrative that they are going to follow.
