Other fun topics:

• Did Carlos Alcaraz become a man during this tournament?
• Donna Vekic is now one of the most important players on the WTA tour

Wimbledon (the movie) from 2004 starring Kirsten Dunst is only on Netflix until later this month! It's the perfect time to go back in time to see what movies, and more importantly, tennis looked like back then. We rewatched the movie with two friends and amazing guests, Stephen and Myles. Hear our review and overall takeaways about tennis after watching the movie.

A few general themes:

-This movie is more sexual than we remember

-The same tennis personalities from 2004 are still leading the way today

-What's realistic (and what's not) in terms of tennis
