When the world's best tennis players take the court in New York for the US Open, 9-year-old Gabby Price will be watching closely -- because this tennis phenom may be be the next great American champion. In this episode of PRODIGIES, THNKR follows Gabby as she trains with legendary coach Rick Macci - former coach of the Williams sisters, Maria Sharapova, and Jennifer Capriati - and competes successfully in a national tournament with much older, stronger girls. In an era dominated by international superstars, where only two Americans have won the US Open (both former students of Rick Macci's), Gabby represents the future of US tennis. The episode reveals Gabby's incredible talent and adorable charisma, giving viewers a rare window into the makings of true greatness.
