OverviewThis is the story of a talented tennis player and that of the many sports families who make the annual trek from wherever in the world they stem from to the IMG (Nick Bollettieri) Tennis Academy in Bradenton, Florida. It is not the story of an already known quantity-a Roger Federer, Naomi Osaka, Daniil Medvedev, Rafael Nadal, or Serena Williams. It is the story of an ordinary tennis hopeful and her very supportive family-a family who has continually assigned too much importance to tennis. It's the story of an adolescent girl with all the tools to become a first-class professional tennis player. It's the story of devastating serves, rifle-crack forehands, pin-point passing shots, and Dominic Thiem-like angles that pull the opponent right off the court. A story of serenity and courage in the face of cheating and frustration. In brief, this is a very typical story for all you hopefuls out there-both players and their families-that offers a taste of what it takes, from all concerned, to try to shape a champion.
