The American tennis player, Taylor Fritz and his girlfriend, Morgan Riddle are on a mission to popularize the sport of tennis in their home country, the United States. Sports like the National Football League and Major League Baseball are already very popular in the country. However, tennis is just not up there in terms of a huge fan base in America compared to those.
In light of this, Riddle and Fritz believe that the new tennis documentary “Break Point” on Netflix will play a huge role in popularizing the sport in their country. The former world No. 8 player is also a part of the documentary series as he has been featured in one of the episodes, depicting his journey on the court.
