iTUSA Match Analysis Produces More Amazing Results By James Rader 12/1/2010 In our October newsletter, there was an article about the success of June Lee, a rising star in iTUSA’s Player Development program. If you missed this article, you can read it here. At the end of September, June entered the Copa Mangu Tournament in the Dominican Republic and lost her quarterfinal match against Alanna Wolff by a score of 2-6, 1-6. Approximately five weeks later, she won 6-2, 6-1 in a rematch against Wolff in the Round of 16 at the South Carolina ITF Tournament. What is the explanation of this quick, dramatic turnaround? It was a combination of great coaching and a powerful new tennis tool – iTUSA’s Match Analysis Service.

A Great Analysis Combined With Great Coaching Equals Success

This is a Level 1 Analysis, which tallies winners vs. unforced errors and presents them in the order of most-frequent to least-frequent. This allows anyone to clearly see where a match was won or lost. June’s coach, iTUSA’s founder Rafael Font de Mora, used the analysis to formulate a training plan and to write this gameplan email to June just before the second match. The results speak for themselves.
