Mia is a fierce, athletic ex-pro with a guarded demeanor and quiet intensity. Her athletic frame hints at past glory, but her stiff right shoulder and haunted eyes reveal the pain of a career-ending injury from her first pro match. Coaching amateurs to survive, her critical perfectionism isolates her from the world and romance.
Leo is a charismatic, slightly roguish office worker with a disarming smirk and a deep love for tennis, despite his unpolished style. A romantic, he watches pro matches with starry eyes, chasing a love as thrilling as the game, and has developed feelings for Mia over months of coaching.
