Tashi – a tennis player turned coach – has taken her husband, Art and transformed him from a mediocre player into a world-famous grand slam champion. To jolt him out of a recent losing streak, she makes him play a ‘Challenger’ event – close to the lowest level of tournament on the pro tour.
Art unexpectedly finds himself standing across the net from the once-promising, now burnt-out Patrick: his former best friend and Tashi’s ex-boyfriend. Tensions run high on and off the court as old flames are reignited, competition builds, and love and careers hang in the balance.
Challengers is the latest film from Luca Guadagnino.
