Sloane Stephens signs on as executive producer for junior tennis documentary

She's a media mogul! On the heels of last month's launch of her podcast, *Sincerely, Sloane*, Sloane Stephens has added another title to her off-court resume: executive producer. The 2017 US Open champion will be listed among the credits in an upcoming documentary about junior tennis on Amazon Prime, per a recent report by *The Hollywood Reporter*.

Uninterrupted’s Top Class Tennis is the latest tennis-centric project being produced by Uninterrupted, LeBron James' athlete-storytelling venture of his SpringHill Company, which also produces Stephens' podcast. This spring, the award-winning brand distributed a documentary on former No. 1 Stan Smith, and it previously worked with Naomi Osaka on her 2021 Netflix documentary.

The four-episode miniseries will chronicle four American junior players, Ariana Anazagasty-Pursoo, Joseph Oyebog, Jr., Stephanie Yakoff and Stiles Brockett, and their road to the prestigious Orange Bowl.

Though there's no release date for the miniseries yet, Stephens' off-camera role is already earning rave reviews. SpringHill's head of unscripted and documentaries, Philip Byron, said that working with the former world No. 3 has been "akin to having the best doubles partner in the world."

"We know everyone is going to be rooting for Ariana Anazagasty-Pursoo, Joseph Oyebog Jr., Stephanie Yakoff and Stiles Brockett to take the global tennis scene by storm," he said.

The tennis miniseries is the latest installment of the Top Class franchise, which debuted in 2021 as a project that followed high school basketball players at California's elite Sierra Canyon School.
