The series is focused on the 2022 season with the next generation of players at its center. Talking about the timing of the series, executive producer James Gay-Rees said, “All I’ve heard for the last 15-20 years is, ‘Roger, Roger, Roger. Serena, Serena, Serena.’ For a reason, right? Obviously, we’re not disputing that, because they’re legends and icons. But I think it was really exciting shining a light on a new generation.”
