THE US OPEN T O Throughout its 133-year history, the US Open has dared its entrants to dream U R I N big, to strive for excellence in each and every match, and in turn the Open has N F A O done the same. It has moved from the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills to the M USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, one of the largest public tennis facili - E N ties in the world, and plays its marquee matches in Arthur Ashe Stadium, the T largest tennis stadium in the world. Over the years, the US Open has drawn inspiration from tennis heroes such as Billie Jean King and Arthur Ashe, as well as the innumerable world-class players who have taken part in the event and, of course, from the hundreds of thousands of fans whose dedication to the sport and the F G A event have made the US Open a true sports and entertainment spectacular. In fact, more than R C O I L 700,000 fans on-site make the US Open the world’s largest-attended annual sporting event, and U I T N more than 53 million online visitors plus a global television audience share in the thrill and excite - Y D & ment each year. S Starting with Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day—the world's largest single-day, grass-roots tennis and entertainment event—straight through Finals Weekend, the US Open honors its future and its past, celebrating those who have made the tournament what it is today while also focusing on the next generation that will write tennis history well into the coming decades.

The knowledge of the subjects I worked with is an activity which constituted a vast material preparation for setting parameters. Could, therefore, describing a prospective platform on training, can positively influence the players included in the experiment. The development model of our country’s juniors was made under the objectification of their games made over the years 2003-2010. The chosen indicators were the number of tournaments, gam and sets, made by subjects, their distribution on the competitive calendar periods, daily, weekly, monthly and annual distances traveled, etc. Keywords: design, methods, research, model, preparation, game, verification. JEL classification: I. Health, Education, and Welfare – I.20, I.23 1. Purpose The experimental research undertaken in this thesis, the outgrowth of personal experience and consultation with an extensive bibliography, aims at the identification of new approaches to scientific research – strengthening and improving the model of training and playing for the players at our country through the establishment of the methodology and methods included in organizing, directing and carrying out the process of modeling of the game of tennis.

Email: [email protected] 2 Department of Computing, Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, SW7 2AZ, United Kingdom. Email: {wjk,ds406}@doc.ic.ac.uk Abstract. We explore the relationship between official rankings of pro- fessional tennis players and rankings computed using a variant of the PageRank algorithm as proposed by Radicchi in 2011. We show Radic- chi’s equations follow a natural interpretation of the PageRank algorithm and present up-to-date comparisons of official rankings with PageRank- based rankings for both the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) and Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) tours. For top-ranked players these two rankings are broadly in line; however, there is wide variation in the tail which leads us to question the degree to which the official ranking mechanism reflects true player ability. For a 390-day sample of recent tennis matches, PageRank-based rankings are found to be better predictors of match outcome than the official rankings. 1 Introduction The rankings of the world’s top tennis players are the subject of much global popular interest.
