This month iTUSA signed an agreement with the Royal Spanish Tennis Federation and its regional affiliates to support their players and coaches with iTUSA's advanced instructional and video technology.

For Spain, the goal of the agreement is clear: to continue their domination of men's professional tennis, the facts of which are indisputable:


•  Spain's number one player Rafael Nadal is also the world's number one player, having just won his seventh Grand Slam title and 5th French Open championship this week in Paris. Nadal is also the current Olympic tennis Gold Medalist.

•  Spain has dominated Davis Cup over the last decade, winning four times in 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2009. Its victory in 2009 came after whitewashing Czech Republic 5-0 in the Final in Barcelona.

•  Spain has 8 male players in the top 50 in the world! No other country comes close (3 for USA, 2 for Switzerland, 2 for Russia and 3 for Germany).

With the signing of the iTUSA and Spanish Federation Agreement, iTUSA's state-of-the-art instructional and video technology will now be used to assist all Spanish tennis players, including many of the top ranked men's players, Davis Cup and Fed Cup teams, as well as amateur players aiming to improve their game and rankings.

The first Spanish Federation regional affiliate to begin implementing the agreement will be Valencia, the home turf of David Ferrer (#11) and Juan Carlos Ferrero (#17). Valencia is known for their incredible player development program over the years, where players like Marat Safin and Dinara Safina have developed their games to become world number ones.

The second affiliate that has entrusted the services of iTUSA is the Federacion Vasca de Tenis. Their president Igor del Busto is a former player, coach and current Chairman of the Board of Communications and International Affairs of the RFET. He has credited iTUSA’s technology as a major breakthrough in the latest tennis instruction.
