• The names of the main characters (Art, Tashi, Patrick) form the acronym ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals).
• In preparation for the role, Zendaya trained with Brad Gilbert, a former professional tennis player who became a renowned coach, for three months.
• Austin Butler and Timothée Chalamet were considered for the role of Art.
• Many of the tennis balls shown in the film are products of computer graphics.
• The match was filmed for three weeks in all weather conditions – both in bright sunshine and under heavy cloud cover, at temperatures ranging from below 10 to above 30 degrees Celsius. One day, pollen turned everything yellow, and it was only washed away by rain that fell several days later.
