In this raucous 1979 comedy, Bert Convy stars as Tommy Everett, a former tennis champion who trades in his Wimbledon glory days for a life of swinging with the girls and volleying straight sets with the rich and famous. With a twinkle in his eye and a paddle in hand, Tommy opens his own tennis school to be his own boss - but little does he know, his new venture will become a hotbed of hormones and hilarity. Featuring real-life tennis icons Bobby Riggs and Björn Borg, this sex comedy may have been described as "Shampoo for the tennis set" at its release, but it's clear that its irreverent humor and charismatic lead make for a wild ride.
