When asked about what are her views on the bitterness the show received, she said, “Some people were saying yeah, if you like a crazy tennis fan. Or you are on tour, it’s not that good. It’s kind of like slow and boring, but I thought the total opposite. I think it gives great insight on what is going on tour. A lot of the team members also gave their reviews. I thought that was great. You can see the hardships, you can see the joys. And watching it made me very emotional as well because I have been in some of those people’s shoes.”
From her revelations, it was clear that the Canadian tennis player is a huge Netflix addict, as she mentioned how she completed the entire show in one sitting during the Australian Open. Furthermore, the tennis player also found an amazing fact: regarding Rafael Nadal after watching the show.
