Netflix’s series ‘Break Point’ is back with more interesting stories that matter to the world. The selection of players this season and the angles the makers decided to show about their games are better than the first season. Episodes 6-10 balanced the on-court and off-court details and kept the viewers binging. One of the highlights of the series is former American tennis star Andy Roddick. The 2003 US Open champion is fabulous while delivering his voice to the show yet again. However, even he, as a narrator, was astonished at how Venus Williams was the second best despite writing her name in the annals of the sport.

The eighth episode deserves a special mention as Roddick’s narration, the reaction of the world, and the time when the Williams sisters were ruling the world are delivered immaculately. To top this, it also featured one of the most emotional moments in tennis.

The tennis crowd knows only one name – Serena Williams!

The hype that the Williams sisters created introduced tennis to the world. Every little girl ran around with a racquet, aspiring to be a Williams. While some achieved it professionally, some did personally. The eighth episode featured the last US Open Serena played. It was a rollercoaster ride of emotions for the whole world, especially for the G.O.A.T. and her fans.

 

When the crowd was asked for whom they were there, the majority of them said, ‘Serena Williams.’ A fan said that it is not history but ‘her story.’? The former ATP number one glorified, ?Serena puts on a show and has the crowd in the palm of her hand. She?s potentially the most intimidating player in history. I mean Venus won five Wimbledons and she is the second-best player in her family. It doesn?t make any sense.?

Serena Williams does not exactly overshadow Venus Williams. The former is more fierce and aggressive, while the latter is brave and hungry. The sisters are unique in their own way, and nothing manifested it more than their playing style.

Serena and Venus share blood but not their characteristics

The sisters are very different in their play. While Venus moves with ease, Serena struggles to play with the foot. She lets her hand do all the work. On the other hand, Venus is not as fast as Serena with her racquet. Their mental stabilities are also poles apart. Whatever stand people may take, the sisters are pioneers who made tennis take the front seat, not just in the US, but the rest of the world.
