Can you be too talented to need a coach? | NetFlix Doc series Break Point

from 50% Facts · host Jim McDonald

Dean Saddoris is back to help us break down the first episode of the new Netflix documentary series “Break Point,” which documents up-and-coming tennis stars during the 2022 Grand Slam season.Gifted “bad boy” Nick Kyrgios and his play during the Australian Open is the focus of episode 1. He has no coach, only plays tennis nine or ten weeks a year, and has an explosive on-court personality. We explore whether some athletes are so gifted that coaching and consistent, disciplined practice might make them LESS successful. We kick off the episode with a conversation about a series of IG posts by @goob_u2 detailing scandals within the USPA and the federation’s unwillingness to deal with them. Dean Saddoris of Caffeine & Kilos is back for this discussion.
