TWO NEW SKY SPORT ORGANIZED PRODUCTIONS – Great appointments on the field, but also with in-depth reports and editorial care by Sky Sport. Tomorrow, Friday, August 22, at 12 noon on Sky Sports One and NOW, don’t miss unforgettable Sinner – Wimbledon 2025: chronicle of a triumph.

Jannik Sinner did not just win a title, he redesigned the history of Italian tennis, the consecration of a generational champion. With this triumph, his fourth career Slam, Sinner confirms his hegemony in contemporary tennis and his world leadership. The tale of the two weeks comes to life in the film of his tournament: an hour in which the highlights and decisive moments towards the final follow, along with the voices of the protagonists and commentary from Sky Sports talent, with many interviews and unseen highlights.

And again, during the U.S. tournament, on Friday, Aug. 29, at 3 p.m. on Sky Sport One and NOW, comes the fifth episode of Tennis Heroes, with the Panatta&Bertolucci duo: Bad Boys – from Nastase to Kyrgios.

The first in the story was Ilie Năstase, the father of all “bad boys,” the one who brought the show to tennis in the 1970s. The Romanian was pure instinct, disorder, theatricality, sarcasm. As skilled with the racket as he was unpredictable with words. After him, with different characters and varied behavior, Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, Marat Safin, Andre Agassi, Fabio Fognini himself. Each with his own personality and his own way of being a champion and allergic to rules. And then Nick Kyrgios, a case in point. Panatta and Bertolucci, with their usual mix of knowledge and irony, sketch the thin line that runs through the history of tennis: that of imperfect geniuses who defy the unwritten rules of the game.

Sky Sport’s Original Productions are on Sky, streaming on NOW and available on demand.
