How It Works

Calculate tennis ball spin rate and Magnus force from serve or groundstroke launch angle and bounce angle differential to assess spin quality and tactical implications

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Serve or groundstroke launch angle — The serve or groundstroke launch angle recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Bounce angle differential — The bounce angle differential recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the tennis spin rate result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the serve or groundstroke launch angle, bounce angle differential for the scenario you are assessing.
