How Jakub Mensik leveraged ATP Tennis IQ powered by PIF to triumph in Miami

Jakub Mensik’s booming first serve has been the cornerstone of his rapid rise, and during his breakthrough run in Miami, ATP Tennis IQ powered by PIF helped elevate it to a new level.

The #NextGenATP Czech slammed 59 aces in his opening three matches at the ATP Masters 1000 event, yet he still looked for ways to gain an extra edge as he chased his first ATP Tour title.

Using ATP Tennis IQ powered by PIF, Mensik discovered just how effective he was when targeting first serves out wide — a strategy that proved decisive in the latter stages and ultimately the final, where he stunned six-time Miami champion Novak Djokovic to lift the title.

“This year in Miami, ATP Tennis IQ was very important, because throughout the tournament I had been changing a lot of tactics,” Mensik explained. “I could see in the first couple of matches that I was good in some kinds of patterns, for example serves out wide.

“In Miami, the surface is super fast, and I had been winning a lot of percentages. In the final rounds, I was using it more often, which could bring me the win.”

For Mensik, another key tool has been the ability to compare his own numbers with Tour averages, a feature that he believes has been vital in his rise to a career-high No. 16 in the PIF ATP Rankings.

“ATP Tennis IQ powered by PIF is a must for every pro,” said Mensik. “It can help me break into the higher rankings by seeing my reports. Also with the Tour average, the data from all of the players, take that and try to implement these numbers into your game.”
