Break Point S2: who is appearing in the new season of Netflix’s tennis documentary and when is it out?

After its original success on Netflix in 2023, the tennis documentary series “Break Point” returns for a second service this week, with some of the hopeful young talents in the tennis world joined by future hall of famers, Wimbledon champions and the odd bit of narration from some of tennis’ former greats. 

The first season of the tennis series "Break Point" premiered in January 2023. The show tracked the journey of a group of talented players from different parts of the world who aimed to become the successors of legendary tennis players such as Serena Williams, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer. The future stars shared their personal and professional lives both on and off the court as they competed in the Grand Slams and the ATP and WTA tours of the previous year.

The new season follows a select group of top tennis players as they return to the court to compete in gruelling Grand Slams and tournaments all over the world — all with the dream of becoming number one. One notable newcomer to the series happens to be Wimbledon 2023 winner Carlos Alcarez, who kicked off 2023 by topping the ATP Men’s rankings after his US Open win in 2022 and subsequently defeating one of the “GOATs” of the modern tennis era, Novak Djokovic, to become only the second person to beat the Serbian in a Wimbledon final (after Sir Andy Muray) and the first player outside the “Big 4” to win at the lawn championships.

But who else will be joining Alcaraz on our screens this time around, and when does “Break Point” Season 2 begin streaming on Netflix? NationalWorld serves up the information - all puns intended
