Join Tennis Manager's team of Scouts!
Hello everyone! The team at Tennis Manager are on the search for new Scouts to join our crack international team! Our Scouts are avid fans of the game and the sport, who can help us with research on all levels to improve our TM database!
The Role
We currently have a group of experts from various professions and backgrounds, all of whom are greatly passionate about what they do. They, like us, want tennis represented fairly and accurately, and that is why we are on the lookout for new talent to help us achieve this.
If you’re interested in volunteering, we would need you to be a strong follower of tennis, and preferably to have some knowledge of your local or national scene. We’re looking for people who soak up every piece of news they read on the sport and its players. Perhaps you’re a regular spectator at some events? Certainly you watch a lot of tennis: junior tournaments, future challengers, or ATP and WTA events.
You will need to be looking out for junior players with a lot of potential for future stardom at your own level, and keeping an eye on notable developments of players and their skills (technical, physical, mental). You will need to be unemotional and treat everyone fairly, with the intention of helping the Tennis Manager team fulfil its goal of having a tennis simulator as close to reality as possible.
Important note: The game represents around 5000 real players with more than 50 characteristics each. The target population includes:
The world's top 100 juniors by age category, boys and girls, starting at age 12.
The top 2000 ATP and WTA players.
We are recruiting worldwide for this role, so get in touch wherever you are from!
How We Support You
From us, you will get access to the Tennis Manager database and the ability to freely input the data that will decide the quality and development of each individual player in the tennis leagues. For your efforts, you will also be credited in for working on the upcoming Tennis Manager 2022 title!
This is not a paid role, but it is a very fulfilling experience in that you will have a very serious creative input into the Tennis Manager games. Your efforts will be appreciated by all of our players daily, while you will be in regular contact with other tennis experts who will support you and work with you together to build up a fantastic database for the Tennis Manager franchise.
If you are interested in this position, send us an email at scout@reboundcg.com with your bio, motivation and experience, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!
Our current Scouts have found their roles in helping to develop the Tennis Manager database very fulfilling. You can read about them below, and their experiences in the role.
Luis, TM Scout
“I’m Luis and I’m a software developer at https://twitter.com/lu_tenis. I follow everything tennis-related, but I mainly focus on women in the ITF, especially the Spaniards. Whenever I have the opportunity, I also like to watch the youngsters, the stars of tomorrow!
To me, the most important competency in a Tennis Manager Scout is passion above all. Besides the love for tennis, ideally you have experience playing tennis, or at least you’ve watched a lot of tennis. Also, it’s important to be fair-minded and not let the emotions play a big part!
The players I think will have the most progression in 2022? I would pay close attention to the Czechs (Noskova, the Fruhvirtova sisters, Bejlek, Bartunkova). Also the 2022 Australian Open Junior finalists, Petra Marcinko (Croatia) and Sofia Costoulas (Belgium) look promising. On the ATP side I'm going to go with Arthur Fils, although I'm also big on his fellow Frenchman Arthur Cazaux.
When I was younger, I followed football much closer than I do now. Playing games like Football Manager (or FIFA/PES) at the same time was something special: you felt like a football player! Unfortunately, tennis lags behind in the gaming world, but Tennis Manager can certainly fill that gap. By putting yourself in a tennis coach's shoes, you will be able to manage every aspect of the game: matches, trainings, tournaments, even finances!”
Damian, tennis journalist and TM Scout
“My name is Damian Kust and I am a tennis journalist. You can link up to my Twitter profile at https://twitter.com/damiankust.
The category I’m probably most knowledgeable about and analysing the most would be the ATP Challenger Tour. Regardless, the most important competency in being a Tennis Manager Scout is the ability to dissect a player’s game and figure out their strengths and weaknesses. Of course, you should watch a lot of tennis! And have a good eye for talented players that are under-ranked.
The players I think will have the most progression in 2022 are Jiří Lehečka, Dominic Stricker, Arthur Cazaux, and Jack Draper. I think that Tennis Manager is an excellent game for tennis geeks, who love realistic stats and nerdy details!”
Matthieu, manager at Tecnifibre and TM Scout
“I’m Matthieu Pogam, and I work as a tennis player manager at Tecnifibre. I'm on Twitter at https://twitter.com/MatthieuPogamTF.
I would say I am most knowledgeable about the Junior circuit, the ITA, at any age or ranking. The most essential capacity is to be watching games. This is the only real way you’ll be able to detect the strong and weak points of a player.
For the players with the most progression this year, I would say Martin Damm, Jack Draper and Jiří Lehečka. About Tennis Manager, it is good that a good tennis game is launched because there are still so few games about the sport.”
If you're interested in becoming a TM Scout or have any questions, send us an email at scout@reboundcg.com.

Tennis Ranking Predictions 2022 - 2030
At a time when the so-called "Next Gen" is slowly starting to take over from the stellar generation of Federer, Nadal and Djokovic, everyone is dying to get a glimpse of what tomorrow's tennis elite will look like, right?
So, because we don't have a crystal ball (and that's better that way), with Tennis Manger we have a great simulation tool able to give us a small idea, or at least to imagine, what our future top 8 in the world on the WTA and ATP circuit could be.
We are going to launch this beautiful machine on the next 9 years and, every day, we will announce you who will be our next champions on the international professional circuit. Of course, all the results will be purely hypothetical (and the comments totally romanticized 😊)! It will nevertheless, at least we hope, make you react and we will be delighted to collect your comments and analysis on the announced predictions.
So here are the next 9 years simulated by Tennis Manager 2021!
In the women's competition, Naomi Osaka reclaimed her status as world No. 1 by defeating Australian Ashley Barty by a narrow margin. We should note the entry of Sofia Kenin and Elina Svitolina in the women's elite and the return of Serena Williams relying on her long experience on the circuit to maintain a competitive level.
On the men's side, Novak Djokovic's performance has collapsed as he has lost several tournaments (due to his non-vaccination with covid?), has suffered a phenomenal loss of points. Daniil Medvedev took advantage of this absence to consolidate his domination while the wonderkids Shapo and Sinner arrive in ambush and integrate our top 8.
Whether on the WTA or ATP tour, the year 2023 marks the beginning of a new era. Indeed, on the women's side, the young Sofia Kenin takes control of the circuit by overtaking the Japanese by a short head. It is also and especially the removal from the top 8 of the emblematic Serena Williams for whom experience and tenacity are no longer enough to push back the young generation. Finally, we should note the arrival in the top 3 of the Polish player Iga Swiatek who, after joining Toni Nadal's academy, is determined to shake up the established order.
Finally, on the men's side, Djokovic's prolonged absence from the circuit (as well as a gluten intoxication) has precipitated his fall from the roof of the tennis world. While the Argentinian gaucho Schwartzman is making his entrance into the elite (with footwork that would make his illustrious elder Guillermo Coria pale in comparison), the battle is raging in the top 3. Indeed, the Russian Medvedev loses his crown to Tsitsipas, while the young Italian Sinner makes a remarkable entry and signs (already) the rebellion of the next (next) generation!
2024 is a confirmation of 2023 and its dynamics, especially for the girls. While the young American Kenin always consolidates her domination on the circuit, the Polish girl confirms her progression and steals the second place from Osaka who leaves the top 3 to the benefit of Andreescu. The Australian Barty, in conflict with her trainer and her staff, goes down dangerously in the ranking and freezes at the bottom of the peloton.
In the boys' category, it is the year of Russia and especially of Rublev who finally takes the first position in our ranking. He takes advantage of a decrease of the Greek Tsitsipas disqualified twice for untimely father coaching. In spite of a year 2023 finished in beauty, Sinner loses some places in the ranking and finishes at the 7th position, while Dominic Thiem, after a long convalescence, makes his comeback in the world tennis scene.
For this year 2025, the WTA Tour sees the emergence of a new American star by the name of Madison Keys. Newly coached by Nicole Bollettieri who, after taking over her father's training center, seems to have found the perfect formula to optimize the skills of her young compatriot. The fight is tenacious in second and third place respectively awarded to Osaka and Swiatek. On the ATP side, there were few significant changes other than the reappearance of the Italian Sinner. The latter declared that he had worked on his game strategy and decided not to systematically "send breezeblocks", according to the player himself. This progression complicates the business of the Russian Medvedev who leaves the top 3 while his compatriot Khachanov climbs to the 7th place of the ranking.
A new year and new twists on the women's circuit. While Madison Keys was running at a high speed, the fall was just as brutal. The separation with her coach Nicole Bollettieri can hardly appear as a coincidence while her compatriot Sofia Kenin, as for her, attaches the services of the former world number 1 Amélie Mauresmo. This new collaboration is a clear success as she regains control over the WTA circuit. Finally, the entry of Aryna Sabalenka who is directly positioned in 3rd position is to be noted. The Belarusian, who won her first Wimbledon this year, confirmed the hopes placed in her.
In the men's tour, it's no longer a battle but a real trench war (Russian style) in the top 3. Indeed, Medvedev recovers his crown at the expense of his compatriot Rublev at the end of an extremely disputed year where each of them won 2 Grand Slam titles. Sinner is still holding on to his 3rd place while another Italian, Matteo Berrettini, reaches the top 8 (his best ranking so far).
In the year 2027, the trio of Kenin, Osaka and Sabalenka remains unchanged and undoubtedly reigns over women's tennis. Despite pressure from Swiatek and Barty, this trio has managed to capture the major titles of the season. Let's note the arrival of Elena Rybakina at the 7th place of our ranking. After acquiring the services of the fantastic Marat Safin, the Russian has considerably strengthened and balanced her game and thus delivered an average level of play that is much higher than what she was used to.
On the ATP circuit, Rublev remains the master of her discipline and continues to play at a stratospheric level. Even his Davis Cup teammate, Daniil Medvedev, can't keep up and is now in 6th place. The undisputed leader of Italian tennis, Jannick Sinner, reached his best ranking in 2027 by finishing 2nd in the race. But beware of the arrival of the promising Musetti who finally managed to reach the top 8 and thus took the 5th place. Alexander Zverev, who had been away from the circuit for several months in 2026 for personal reasons, is back in better shape than ever!
The years go by and they don't necessarily look the same! As proof of this year 2028, three new players have joined the world's elite women's tennis scene: the Americans Osuigwe and Montgomery and the Swiss Bencic. A real breath of fresh air on the circuit which, despite everything, is still dominated by Swiatek and Osaka who impressed by their regularity without failure. Sabalenka was absent from the competition as she had several muscular problems and decided to focus on her physical preparation.
In the men's category, Andrey Rublev completed a second brilliant year in which there was almost no competition! Indeed, by winning 3 Grand Slams and 4 Masters 1000, he left only a few crumbs to his pursuers. The Greek Tsitsipas, by winning his second Roland Garros in a row, confirmed the extent of his undeniable qualities as a clay player. Finally, the year 2028 will finally leave a place to the talented Alcaraz, author of an incredible season where he will win successively Rome and Monte Carlo, before failing in the final of Roland Garros against the Greek.
At the end of the decade, the women's circuit crowned the Polish Swiatek for the second time. At this point it seems obvious that her entry into the Nadal academy is a more than successful operation as her game, especially on clay, has evolved considerably and leaves little space for her competitors. In her rearview mirror, she can nevertheless observe the return of Sofia Kenin, for whom the collaboration with the former world number 1 Mauresmo is always fruitful and brings her consistency and solidity.
On the men's side, it's still an almost perfect year for Rublev who has won 3 Grand Slam titles and 6 Masters 1000... Simply edifying for the Russian who finds, despite of everything, time to perform regularly with the group One Direction 😊. The rest of the leading pack is 100% Italian with the extraordinary breakthrough, in particular, of Lorenzo Musetti who seems to have totally recovered from his disillusionment against Djokovic at Roland Garros 2021 edition. It was about time you will tell me but, according to the Italian, the grieving was long and tenacious!
And finally, the year 2030! Will it mark the beginning of a new era? Certainly not for the ladies where Swiatek finishes in 1st place for the third consecutive time, a real consecration for the Polish who became quite simply untouchable! Sabalenka and Andreescu complete the podium of our ranking in a year that seemed however more open than the previous ones. Sabalenka's comeback is the result of a real resilience work on the physical level, hats off to her! Finally, let's note the arrival of the young Brenda Fruhvirtova who, after years more complicated than expected on the intermediate circuit, finally confirmed the hopes placed in her.
On the ATP circuit a small revolution has taken place, after winning 9 Grand Slam, King Rublev is no more. But do not worry, the crown is well and truly screwed on a well-made head in the person of Lorenzo Musetti! Long live this beautiful Italian generation! The "elders" Tsitsipas, Medvedev and Zverev remain but beware, respect for the elders was buried a long time ago in the tennis world!
So, have any records been broken in this decade? In the women's tour, despite the amazing achievements of Osaka (10 Grand Slams), Kenin (8 Grand Slams) and Swiatek (7 Grand Slams), the throne is still held by Serena Williams who has won 23 major titles. Finally, in the men's tour, as beautiful as the decade of the new generation post Djoko, Nadal and Federer was, Rublev's 10 Grand Slam titles (and 7 for Sinner) are no match for Djokovic and his 21 major titles. Finally, let's note the 240 weeks of Djoko's No. 1 ranking, closely followed by Rublev with 205 weeks.
(Very) good generation, but not yet enough to dethrone the masters of tennis of the 21st century!
