Matteo Berrettini on Netflix series Break Point: “I wanted to cry”
The tennis player explained his thoughts and also reported that initially Berrettini had many doubts about the matter. Here are his words: “In 2022 I underwent my first real surgery in my career. There have been moments with losses and really difficult situations, I thought deep down it was better not to have them around because there was the risk that I wanted to cry or in any case I didn’t want to talk to anyone.”
Then Matteo clarified the reality of the facts and explained why it’s important to shoot a series like this: “In the end I thought that I always show when I’m happy and I’m fine but it’s also important to show the negative sides and the moments when I’m not happy during this sport. All this would have made the situation more authentic.”
Berrettini then praised this new series and explained: “People can thus understand that all this is real and not false. It’s something that you show yourself and I tried to make it understood as soon as possible. Maybe it won’t be a great show, after all I come from a normal family and I often show normality.”
Break Point will be released on January 13, 2023 and the first series will consist of five episodes.
