“Tennis is a relationship,” says Tashi Duncan (Zendaya) in director Luca Guadagnino’s new film The Challengers.
Key Points:
- “Tennis is a relationship,” says Tashi Duncan (Zendaya) in director Luca Guadagnino’s new film The Challengers.
- Rather the heart of tennis, and perhaps of all competition, is a three-way relationship between two contestants and a third person.
- The two boys compete for her attention and one night she ends up in their room, where they share a three-way kiss before she leaves.
- When Art’s career also hits the buffers, she suggests he play the New Rochelle tennis tournament, at which Patrick will be waiting.
