ATP and Infosys Renew Global Technology Partnership
The ATP and Infosys have renewed their technology services partnership for two more years, until 2020.
Infosys will continue in its role as Global Technology Services Partner and Platinum Sponsor of the ATP World Tour, as well as the prestigious season-ending Nitto ATP Finals.
Launched in 2015, the partnership has seen the ATP and Infosys work together across multiple facets in the delivery of deep analytics and insights to tennis fans worldwide through ATPWorldTour.com, the world’s leading men’s tennis website, as well as a complete revamp of the ATP’s digital platforms.
The partnership has leveraged the capabilities of Infosys’ Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform - Infosys Nia to create content such as Infosys ATP Beyond the Numbers, a unique analytics series that deep dives into player performance. It has also led to the development of the ATP Stats Leaderboards, a new statistical way to understand and measure performance of ATP World Tour players, leveraging data sets spanning 27 years all the way back to 1991, and the Second Screen capability, which offers valuable information on the strengths and weaknesses of players, enabling them and their coaches to review strategies and improve performance.
Infosys has also been instrumental in the production of the ATP’s new PlayerZone app, an extranet portal for ATP players, their support teams, coaches, and others in the ecosystem, that allows users to engage with each other and access information across a wide range of operational aspects related to life on tour. This includes day to day real-time registration or withdrawals into tournament draws, real-time push notifications, and the ability to contact any other ATP current or former player on the app, among several other features.
