Brain Game Tennis - what an exciting concept! I am so pleased you have decided to move in this direction. From Day 1, I have been a great admirer and proponent of your work.

Dick Gould

Former Stanford Head Coach - 17 National Championships

Craig sees the game differently. We see chaos. He sees patterns. I have worked closely with him for the past 15 years and have witnessed first-hand how his global influence in our sport has grown. Craig is truly changing the game - specifically by improving the quality of the practice court. We all used to think grinding was the best way to improve. The First 4 Shots certainly changed that! Craig has worked closely with players that I coach full-time, and I always enjoy spending time on court with him.

OK, SO WHY BRAIN GAME?

Tennis looks like a game of pinball, with the ball careening here, there, and everywhere. But it's not. It's actually the exact opposite. Tennis is a game of repeatable patterns in four specific areas - serving, returning, rallying and approaching. Study the patterns, learn the winning percentages, and make the game simple. That's what Brain Game Tennis stands for.

No more guessing. No more opinions. Just the facts please...

What Can Brain Game Tennis Strategies Do For You?

Whether you’re a player or coach, there’s never been a clear path to actually improving at tennis.

Should we practice more forehands, backhands, serves or returns?
How important is consistency for winning matches?
How much time should you spend working on technique over strategy?
Where should you serve in singles? What about doubles?

Historically in tennis, the answers to all these questions were based on theories NOT backed by data.

Now, we have millions of data points on thousands of matches per year. After analyzing this data, you’ll be surprised what you find.

For example, practicing extended rallies is mostly wasted time if you want to win more matches.

It’s time to completely change the way we play & coach tennis.

Craig O’Shannessy has finally taken all this data and created tactics & strategies for some of the top juniors & ATP pros in the world.

The results have been amazing!

Bran Game Tennis courses are the only tennis strategies out there that use data to back up the lessons. There are simply no other courses available to the public like this.

You’ll finally know exactly what to focus on to take your game to the next level. Whether you’re a singles or doubles player, a college tennis athlete or 4.0 league player, a coach for juniors or pros, these courses will transform the way you think, teach, and play tennis.
