Tennis 101

Tennis is classic. It’s one of the most followed sports today and it brings together fans from around the world. Tournaments are held throughout the year, from January to December, on all continents. A week on the calendar doesn’t go by where we can’t see players giving it their all on the court. In addition, there are four highly publicized annual tournaments (that even casual fans watch) called Grand Slams. They are:

• The Australian Open
• Roland Garros
• Wimbledon
• The US Open

Even if you’ve never picked up a racket yourself before, watching every shot fills you with excitement. Sure, the men’s “Big Three” (Federer, Nadal and Djokovic) are all trying to set historic records, but the next generation (Medvedev, Tsitsipas, Zverev, Rublev, Alcaraz) are proving that they have what it takes. In women’s tennis, there’s a lingering question on everyone’s minds: Who can topple Barty?

Tennis is also a sport with miles of statistics and there’s so much to breakdown from matches won and service efficiency to backhand shots and forehand! This provides a solid basis on which we can generate a narrative. Narratives are easily digestible NLG match previews or match summaries that provide readers and bettors with the appropriate information used to understand the game better and make smarter bets. NLG, or natural language generation, simply means that these narratives are produced by AI in a language that reads naturally to humans.

Take a look at an example:

Keep on reading to make sure you have all the information that you need at hand to place the best bets!

The contenders in the Australian Open final are Rafael Nadal (ES) and Dannil Medvedev (RUS). Both players will meet at the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne next Sunday, January 30 at 7:30 p.m. (local time).

Nadal and Medvedev have competed in the past on the ATP Tour. They have faced each other four times since 2019 and Nadal has won three times. It’s also the second time they’ve met in a Grand Slam final (Rafa won the US Open in 2019).

How did they get here?

The Spanish Rafael Nadal is ranked number 5 per ATP and has won 90 singles titles throughout his career, including 20 Grand Slams. Here are just some of his stats for this year alone:
