How to Win Clay Court Tennis

 

 

Nadal on Clay

Celebrating another win.

Craig O’Shannessy, one of the foremost, it not the foremost tennis analysts in the game, relies on statistics (from reviewing many videos)  to determine  what determines a winning strategy:

“Let’s be crystal clear on this…

The greatest indictor of winning a match on clay is winning the battle in the 0-4 Shot range. The second highest is the baseline, which is also heavily attached to the 0-4 shot rally length, with 3 shot and 4 shot rallies – which happen more than any other baseline rally lengths.

When you also look at the next four metrics, they are also very closely aligned with the 0-4 shot rally length.

This list (Roland Garros women 2017) first and foremost is a BLUEPRINT for winning clay court tennis matches. This is not opinion. It’s not guess work. It’s not biased. There is no slant to champion one metric over the other. These are official stats that uncover the hidden battles in a match. 

Every other major global sport uses match analytics as the beating heart of their operation. Tennis is just arriving at that tipping point right now.”
