Synopsis

Struggling after the loss of his wife, the future looks bleak for Jerry McDonald. As a single-parent, tennis has become his only semi-social outlet with his eccentric best friend, Miles, who’s working through anger management with the help of his life coach. Reluctantly, Jerry caves to Miles’ pressure to play in a local tournament that could earn them a once-in-a-lifetime slot in an exhibition match at a prestigious national tournament, The Open. But they’ll have to meet the infamous Gollant Brothers who haven’t lost club champion status for a decade. Let the training begin.
