In the final, Sloane Stephens faced Madison Keys at the iconic Arthur Ashe Stadium and defeated her 6-3, 6-0, earning her first-ever Grand Slam title.

Netflix released the teaser trailer for the second part of season one of Break Point series on Tuesday, May 24. The teaser features prominent players such as Matteo Berrettini, Frances Tiafoe, and Stephens herself.

In the clip, the players shared their experiences of playing in the American Grand Slam.

Sloane Stephens shared the clip on her Instagram. Expressing her feeling of playing in the US Open, it is like being "love-drunk" and actually being drunk on the famous cocktail served in the stadium, the Honey Deuce.

"It's intense, It's love-drunk and actually drunk. Like it's all of those things. Feels like a call out 😂 😂 😂 #iykyk #honeydeuce," Stephens wrote.
