The summer of tennis....and cricket... and Netflix docos + surfs up

We’re back for 2023, baby! Holidays have been ace, as have all the sporting things.

First off, we chat about sometimes tennis player Nick Kyrios (Nick, give Libby a call), and Libby explains a bit more about the United Cup.

Australia appears to be dominating Test Cricket at the moment, winning 2 test series against the West Indies and South Africa. There was a bit of cricket over the summer, but short tests meant that The Sport Social team missed their own Christmas Party at the Gabba. David Warner scored a double century in his 100th test, and Libby loved all of it, including the celebration.

In terms of streaming services, we have some recommendations!!!! First up, Untold: The Race of the Century is a must watch viewing. As babies of the 80s, we knew nothing about this story and couldn’t get enough.

And, of course, being Drive to Survive fans we were quick to get onto the latest sporting offering from Netflix: Break Point. Libby was hooked from the start, Georgie reckon’s you’ve got to get past the first 2 episodes and then you’ll be hooked. Smart for tennis and great for those fans not watching tennis year round. If you’re feeling a bit lost by the departure and decline of some of the greats, you need to watch this.
