Durant leurs études, Patrick et Art, tombent amoureux de Tashi. À la fois amis, amants et rivaux, ils voient tous les trois leurs chemins se recroiser des années plus tard. Leur passé et leur présent s’entrechoquent et des tensions jusque-là inavouées refont surface. Tennis player turned coach Tashi has taken her husband, Art, and transformed him into a world-famous Grand Slam champion. To jolt him out of his recent losing streak, she signs him up for a "Challenger" event — close to the lowest level of pro tournament — where he finds himself standing across the net from his former best friend and Tashi's former boyfriend.
