Axis 1 / 10

Maturity, Professional Project & Autonomy

Evaluate the player's professional awareness, drive and autonomy — the model's most decisive dimension.

Understanding of professional circuit requirements

0 No understanding. The player has no concrete idea of what a tennis career entails in terms of workload, finances or lifestyle.
1 Vague understanding. Knows it is demanding but has never seriously investigated the reality.

3 Good understanding, reinforced by exposure to the professional environment (training camp, tournament observation).
4 Deep and realistic understanding, fully integrated into daily decision-making.

Is the professional goal clearly articulated by the player themselves?

0 Player does not express this goal autonomously — it is driven by the family or coach.
1 Vague aspiration, rarely articulated spontaneously.
2 Clear goal expressed spontaneously, but without a concrete action plan.
3 Clear, constant goal, supported by a personal action plan.

1 Understands it intellectually but has never been tested or confronted with it.
2 Has experienced short periods away from home and shows basic resilience.

Axis 2 / 10

Project Structure, Staff & Training Quality

Nature of main technical supervision

0 No regular coach — autonomous training or recreational club group lessons.
1 Standard club-level coach shared with many members, no individualised tournament follow-up.
2 Club coach dedicated 100% to the athlete, OR collective training in a structured private academy.
3 Private individual coach dedicated 100% to the player with exclusive planning, but does not travel systematically to tournaments.

Annual training programme and season objectives: formalised and regularly reassessed

0 No plan — progressing tournament by tournament.
1 Vague objectives, never written down.
2 Annual objectives defined but rarely reassessed.
3 Formalised plan, reassessed quarterly.
4 Formalised plan reassessed after each major tournament, with concrete, documented adjustments.
Training Quality Ratio (RQE) — enter weekly tennis hours

Video and/or biomechanical analysis integrated into training

0 Never used.
1 Occasional use with no longitudinal follow-up.

2 A physical trainer intervenes regularly.
3 Several professionals communicate with each other.
4 Complete multidisciplinary staff coordinated by the head coach around shared performance objectives.

Integration and frequency of structured mental preparation

Axis 3 / 10

Tactical Identity & Equipment

Explore the player's tactical identity and equipment management.

Awareness of natural strengths — how does the player win points?

0 Plays without tactical intention, "on instinct", unable to explain how or why they win or lose points.
1 Knows whether they prefer attacking or defending, but has no repeated tactical plan or pattern.
2 Clearly identifies their preferred pattern (e.g. running the opponent, net approach, aggressive returning) and tries to stick to it.
3 Automatically applies basic tactical patterns trained in practice (e.g. consistently targeting opponent's weakness).
4 Fully mastered "signature" tactical identity: knows exactly which pattern is their lethal weapon (e.g. wide serve + inside-out forehand into open court) and can execute it under high pressure.

Adaptation of playing style to court surface

0 Plays exactly the same way everywhere — no footwork or trajectory adaptation to the surface.
1 Has a preferred surface but cannot explain technically or tactically why.
2 Understands that their natural style suits a specific surface and seeks to prioritise it in their calendar.
3 Consciously adapts footwork (clay slides), ball heights and safety zones according to surface.
4 Total mastery of professional surface requirements: adapts physical preparation, movement technique and tactical intentions according to the surface targeted by the season calendar.

Presence of a "Weapon" — a reference power shot capable of causing real damage

0 Very neutral game: consistent but without any power shot capable of overpowering or threatening the opponent.
1 Has a potential weapon but it is still too inconsistent or fragile in important moments to dictate play.
2 Has an identified power shot (e.g. big serve or solid backhand) that regularly creates advantage in exchanges.
3 Has a genuine national-level weapon: powerful, reliable, pushes back most opponents and dictates play.
4 International-level power shot ("Weapon"): formidable, feared by opponents, ultra-consistent and effective even against the best players on tour.

Equipment monitoring and optimisation (strings, tension, racket specs)

0 Plays with any racket/strings without monitoring — sometimes plays with strings loose for months.
1 Chooses rackets by look or brand, has rackets strung at the club occasionally without knowing the tension or correct string type.
2 Knows their reference racket and strings, pays attention to general tension based on feel.
3 Rigorous monitoring: changes strings preventively before tension loss, owns at least 3 identical frames strung identically.
4 Professional-level optimisation: custom rackets (weight, balance and inertia measured by a frame customiser), precise tension and string type adaptation for climate, altitude and ball type.
Axis 4 / 10

Tournament travel and logistics management

0 Improvised — decided at the last minute.
1 Organised by a parent without an anticipated calendar.
2 Anticipated season calendar but frequent adjustments.
3 Anticipated calendar and preliminary budget established.

2 Balance generally maintained with occasional efforts.
3 Balance maintained through clear and agreed family organisation.
4 Strong balance — the tennis project is serenely integrated into family life without dominating it.

Before starting the test, please read the following explanations

HOW THE PRI WORKS (10 Strategic Pillars)

“I invite you to take this test at your own pace, and as honestly as possible. The PRI does not just look at your forehand or your physical fitness; it evaluates 10 strategic areas that determine if a junior project can succeed on the pro tour.

  • 100% Objective & Self-Paced: Take your time. Be honest. The truer your answers, the more valuable your results.

  • Your Index Out of 100: At the end of the test, you will receive a global score—your Pro Readiness Index out of 100.

  • Immediate Action Plan: Along with your score, you will get initial recommendations and immediate actions to use in your daily training.”

Wherever You Start, Your Journey Begins Here

“Please remember: whatever your score, the dream of turning professional does not end here. On the contrary, it all starts here. Knowing exactly where you start today makes the path to the top much clearer.

If Your Score is Excellent…

Well done! You and your support team have built a solid foundation. You are on the right track. My recommendation is to keep going, stay fresh, and continue refining the details of your structure.

If Your Score is Developing…

This is your greatest opportunity. A lower score does not mean you lack talent. It simply shows which areas of your project need to be structured more professionally. Use this as a helpful roadmap to focus your energy and secure your future.”

THE REALITY OF THE INTERNATIONAL STAGE

Some families and players may find their score in the ‘Title and International Performance’ section to be harsh.

This projection is deliberately realistic. It is calculated within the context of international performance, taking multiple demanding factors into account. It is the result of many hours of data analysis to provide you with a true picture of the international landscape.

Winning locally is fantastic, and every victory should be celebrated. But to survive on the ATP/WTA tours, we must measure our projects against the world’s elite. This calibration is not designed to discourage you—it is designed to prepare you to conquer the tour.
