SwingVision uses shot tracking and video analysis to improve your game without the help of a coach. The app uses artificial intelligence to analyze your play to provide personalized recommendations.

The company was founded by Swupnil Sahai. Sahai previously worked on Tesla Autopilot. Other SwingVision team members include D1 tennis players from UC Berkeley and iOS engineers from Apple

Former world number one Andy Roddick and former Top-10 player James Blake are investors in SwingVision.

How does SwingVision work?

You set up your iPhone behind the baseline to record the video of your play. Phones can be mounted on a tripod or on a fence using a fence mount. You need at least 5 GB of storage available on your phone. 5GB is sufficient for recording 1 to 1.5 hours of play.

Video Analysis And Recommendation

Video analysis shows your match stats, shot distribution around the court, spin, ball speed, serve placement and racquet contact heat maps.

The app tracks your footwork, court positioning, and your posture. It even has line calling if you have disagreements about your opponent’s line calling.

You can use the stats provided by the app to make changes to your game. You don’t need a coach to identify areas for improvement. The app does that for you every time you hit the court.

How much does it cost?

The basic plan is free. It allows you to track 1500 shots and has limited features. The Pro-plan is $9.99 per month. You can get the plan details here.

According to Belarussian media, Aryna Sabalenka has signed a letter along with other athletes in support of Alexander Lukashenko. Belarus has been marred by protest since the disputed election three months ago.

In the first days and weeks after the election, Sabalenka largely remained silent. But her recent actions have been criticized by many as they have been deemed pro-Lukashenko.

Unrest in Belarus has resulted in hundreds of people injured and arrested. Police used stun guns and water cannons to clear protesters off the streets.

Belarussian players such as Victoria Azarenka and Aryna Sabalenka have found politics a difficult topic to navigate. During the US Open, Azarenka said, “It’s breaking my heart to see what’s happening, because not being able to be there and understand the whole situation. It’s really sad, and it’s really difficult to speak about that. But I just hope that all the violence stops immediately, really does, because it’s really heartbreaking. I can’t even speak without tears in my eyes when I think about it.”
