Let's do the Bad Boy first!...so original

This first episode was not the best start for this series. Was it really necessary to show the laziest brat in tennis first? It's really crass to fall for sensationalism over substance in this first episode. Nick Kyrgios comes across as a gifted but petulant, undisciplined emotionally weak-minded Gen Z'er. Whatever he considers to be a struggle is nothing compared to what others have had to battle throughout their careers. I can't help but wonder if he has squandered his talent and is more interested in being famous for all the wrong reasons rather than be a great tennis player. The girlfriend needed less airtime too.
