This title is an acquisition.
Part road trip, part human drama, She Got Game takes an unprecedented, behind-the-scenes look at the women’s pro tennis tour, exploring what life is really like for these extraordinary young athletes. They all gave up “normal” childhoods in order to train, and many were groomed by parents who dreamed of their little girls becoming tennis stars. But what was the price of that dream?
