Filming is already under way at the Australian Open, it said, but a release date and title for the documentary is yet to be confirmed.
Netflix will also be teaming up with the PGA tour and golf’s major championships to produce a series documenting the 2022 season.
“The series will be the first sports programme of its kind to provide an equal platform to the men’s and women’s competitors of the sport, in keeping with the equal stage they share throughout the year,” Netflix said.
