In a recent interview where top tennis players were asked to name a fellow player who deserved a reality show like ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ as soon as possible, most of the interviewees mentioned Frances Tiafoe, and some of them also named Christopher Eubanks. In fact, even Frances Tiafoe himself felt like a reality show featuring him would be pretty good, as he is quite entertaining.
Ever since the release of the Netflix series Break Point, there has been a lot of talk about it. The show features the lives of the best tennis players and the behind-the-scenes from their Grand Slam events, ATP, and WTA tours. The tennis players were probably asked this question in regard to the show as well, and the video of the same was posted on the official X handle of the US Open.
There were some other names as well, though. For example, Maria Sakkari named Rafael Nadal, while Elina Svitolina named Nick Kyrgios and Benoit Paire. However, the common consensus was that Chris Eubanks and Frances Tiafoe were the most entertaining. Jessica Pegula, Viktoria Azarenka, Chris Eubanks, and even Tiafoe himself thought that if a tennis player deserved a reality show, it would probably be the American.

Frances Tiafoe will look to succeed in the US Open
American Frances Tiafoe has been on the rise this season. Ever since winning the Stuttgart Open. Tiafoe has seen a great boost in his confidence and his overall performance. Although his performances in the Wimbledon and Cincinnati Open were not that great, he did decently well in the Canadian Open as well.
He has been working on himself too. In a recent interview, Tiafoe said that he has been working on his serve for the last year now, and he thinks that it’s his most lethal weapon.
“My service is the biggest difference, getting myself out of trouble. Ace counts have been high. Sometimes my percentage is not high, but aces have always been pretty good. That’s helping me a lot. My serve is definitely paying dividends,” Tiafoe said.
It will be interesting to see how he fares in the upcoming US Open.
