It's not 'Love-all' for tennis balls. They are all round, yellow and bouncy. So why are the top-ranked players complaining about them? It's the result of a peculiar problem. Tournament organisers sign contracts for the use of tennis balls with various manufacturers. Naturally, the competition is intense, and it has led to different brands being featured in each of the tournaments. So far, so good. Players play in multiple tournaments every year. Apart from venue and climactic changes, they have to contend with playing on grass courts one week and clay courts in the next. Both of which are built into their practice routines. To win international Grand Slams, you have to excel on both, since that's how the game has evolved. The game itself has become a lot faster. To compare, you merely have to watch the speed with which rallies happened back in the 80s and 90s versus today. Like finely tuned racquets, the players' ability now hinges on controlling as many aspects of the game as possible. So, even the smallest changes in the weight, responsiveness and bounce of the balls they use forces them to improvise. And that is leading to more wrist and forearm injuries. From the article: (open quote) Daniil Medvedev, the men's world No. 3, last year said the balls used in a tournament in Beijing quickly expanded and became fluffy, making aggressive, point-ending shots much more difficult. "They become like a grapefruit. ... We're basically playing 30-shot rallies because it's almost impossible to hit a winner." (close quote) There are no easy solutions. And the facts can't be disputed either. A couple of decades ago, these kinds of injuries were unheard of and with such frequency. But for the tournament organisers, having to settle on one ball manufacturer as the sponsor also presents unique problems. And if the brand name is not visible in close-up, the manufacturers may not be interested in sponsoring tournaments at all since they don't get mileage. Right now, the game is tied at 'deuce'. And neither has the advantage. #brands #behavioraleconomics #tennis #sponsorship #tournaments -------- 𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐲 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡?

Tennis tip: Use the open stance most often. more effective for time management The open stance on groundstrokes is highly advantageous for several key reasons, including improved timing, preparation, and recovery. - When using an open stance, players can keep their eyes on the ball and the opponent longer, allowing for better anticipation and reaction. This stance also facilitates quicker preparation since it involves less footwork compared to the closed stance, enabling players to get into position faster, especially when dealing with fast or wide shots. - It also allows for a smoother and more efficient weight transfer from the back foot to the front, helping players maintain balance and readiness for the next shot. This swift transition is crucial in modern tennis, where rallies are often rapid and require continuous movement. - Lastly, the open stance is beneficial for generating more power in groundstrokes. By keeping the body more squared to the net, players can utilize their core muscles more effectively, leading to greater rotational force and, consequently, more powerful shots. It allows players to use their legs more dynamically, pushing off the ground to add extra power. This stance supports a fuller, more fluid swing, which not only increases the pace of the ball but also imparts additional spin, making shots more challenging for opponents to handle. #tennis #tips #sportsbusiness #startup
