| contents | This paper investigates the Tennis Momentum Model (TMM), which aims to enhance the understanding of match dynamics by integrating key factors such as efficiency, historical scoring probabilities, and real-time scoring data. The model is designed to explore how momentum affects player performance throughout a match and how it might influence overall match outcomes. By leveraging this model, players and coaches could gain valuable insights that may help them adjust their strategies in response to shifting momentum during a match.
To validate the model, it was tested on two tennis matches, revealing its effectiveness in capturing shifts in momentum and correlating these shifts with scoring events. The results showed that the TMM accurately depicted the flow of momentum during matches, highlighting how shifts in momentum are directly linked to changes in scoring as the match progresses. |
