Yes. After the release of the second season in January 2024, makers are hinting at the show not returning for a third season. A creation out of racing show Drive to Survive, the docu-series ran for six seasons successfully. But looks like this Tennis special did not live up to the Drive to Survive expectations. It is more interesting to see if more seasons of Drive to Survive or a similar show on sports like Golf comes up amidst PGA Tour and LIV circuit rivalry. But, the reason for cancelation of Break Point is, the controversies of players. Novak Djokovic and his failed attempt to enter the Australian Open due to lack of taking Covid vaccine, makes creators believe that they should keep this show on a hold till viewership improves and so do player’s controversies.
