The Australian Open is well underway, and with it comes Netflix's new sports docuseries 'Break Point', which follows the lives of several young tennis players on tour. Donnovan catches up with several behind-the-scenes filmmakers to discuss the creation and thought process that went into making the show, including executive producer James-Gay Rees and showrunner Kari Lia (4:00), as well as executive producer Paul Martin (11:18), on how Break Point is both the same and different from their previous work on 'Drive to Survive'. Donnovan also speaks to Grand Slam Board CEO Ugo Valensi and ATP Chief Strategy Officer Nick Bourne on why they felt Netflix was a good opportunity to get their sport in front of more people (17:55). Afterwards, he catches up with Sportsnet's own Caroline Cameron for a review of the series so far, and for a check in on the sport overall (27:09).
