The 5-minute video has been well-received by fans and players alike. Victoria Azarenka and Novak Djokovic (Images via Imago) A talented tennis player from Belarus took on an internet troll who attempted to belittle Djokovic for his amusing post. Djokovic made a joke about ATP’s latest skit, which depicted the new ATP season as a reality show with the players as actors. Azarenka found it hilarious and responded to Djokovic’s post, suggesting that fans should question the director for altering the script. Azarenka couldn’t contain her laughter after Djokovic proposed that tennis fans should ask the director why the script had been changed, as the season usually begins with Djokovic winning the Australian Open. Victoria Azarenka reacted by posting a laughing emoji. However, one user commented on her post, claiming that Djokovic’s comment was not funny. Azarenka delivered a fitting response, telling the user not to laugh. Not only Victoria Azarenka, but many others also found ATP’s new concept amusing. Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula even demanded that the person behind the idea be given a raise. But what made it so special? ATP released a 5-minute video titled “The Tour: A Reality Show” on Thursday, featuring top tennis stars. The video reveals that the ATP seasons are scripted, with stars like Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic admitting to it. The video also shows players recording the sounds that fans hear during matches. Meanwhile, a player is seen recording his winner’s speech in front of a green screen. The producers cleverly created this satirical skit to counter critics who claim that the tour is scripted. Everyone in the video subtly takes aim at these critics. It is unclear whether this video is a one-time occurrence or if more satirical skits will be released in the future. Regardless, it appears to be a perfect marketing strategy to promote the new ATP season, given the attention this video has already received.
