About
Tennis is inarguably one of the hardest sports for an athlete to achieve professional status. There is no draft, no free rides to tournaments, no hotels paid for by the team, and no one makes $100,000 dollars every time he or she plays the game and no opportunity to ride the bench during injuries. The money that is made is on the court.
Tennis fans and everyday people alike are fascinated by what it takes to become a master of the game. The pressure on young players working their way up the ranks is intense. In this world losing a match could end a burgeoning career while winning may barely cover gas money and a hotel room. Every game, set and match is about one thing: hitting the pro circuit. PRODIGIES will focus on kids from all corners of the globe, with different backgrounds, coaches and languages, and show what it takes to become a professional tennis player on tour today.
