The Babolat booth offers all fans an exclusive look at Rafael Nadal’s data recorded by his Babolat PLAY Aeropro Drive.

 

Babolat inaugurates its first Digital Wall, a giant screen displaying continuous data from connected players after their matches, data from connected players from around the world and content created by the Babolat PLAY community via #connected tennis… a truly participative tool at the heart of the tournament.

 

The Babolat PLAY connected racket offers a visual analysis of the ball impact location zone. In partnership with IBM, this data will appear on the Babolat digital wall and on the official French Open website, www.rolandgarros.com
