The film follows Tashi Duncan (Zendaya), a former tennis star who faces a career-ending injury and goes on to coach her husband, Art Donaldson, to be a Grand Slam champion. However, Donaldson is now on a losing streak, and as he attempts to regain championship status, he finds himself facing a formidable opponent - his former best friend who also happens to be Duncan’s ex-lover.
