Story summary

The U.S. Open tennis tournament is incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) in various ways to enhance the experience for players and fans. The AI-powered analysis, developed by IBM's Watsonx, is tracking key moments and player performance metrics through cameras installed around Arthur Ashe Stadium. For example, during a match between Coco Gauff and Zeynep Sönmez of Turkey, the U.S. Open app provided real-time insights on serve quality, likelihood to win, and other data points. By the end of the tournament, it's expected that there will be over 1 billion data points collected. This integration of AI is allowing fans to access more detailed information about the game, creating a new digital experience for viewers.
