Tsitsipas Admits He Would Have Loved To Direct Netflix's Break Point

| by Kadir Macar

Stefanos Tsitsipas has always loved camera work as the Greek enjoys photography and filmmaking which are some of his hobbies.

Tsitsipas runs a youtube channel where he largely shows parts of his life that many tennis fans can't see otherwise and it's always been something he enjoyed doing. His love for filmmaking and anything related to cameras is very well known though he doesn't upload regularly due to his incredibly busy schedule.

Reflecting on Netflix's Break Point, which will renew for season two, Tsitsipas admitted that he enjoyed the experience while adding that he would have liked to be the director of it.

I have mixed emotions regarding this. I always wanted to have something like this in tennis and would have probably liked to have been the director of it! However, it’s exciting to be an ‘actor’ in one of the most exciting things happening in tennis in terms of the exposure and hopefully bringing new fans and people to the sport.

Being able to show his life and give fans a chance to see what tennis looks like from the other side is a privilege to Tsitsipas. He's happy with the end result and hopes that fans around the world will enjoy what they see in the show.

I feel privileged that I am able to showcase my life and tell my story on such a platform. It has been a very intense year with lots of tennis. There have been plenty of ups and downs, good and bad moments so far. I really hope that the end product is a great story, exciting and show some fascinating insights into our sport.

He also explained what filmmaking means to him and what it represents. To him, it's an opportunity to tell a story in a way it hasn't been told before.

The beauty and power of filmmaking is that it provides opportunities to tell stories that have not been told before. This is one of the things that I love about filmmaking.
