Results of these tournaments have been analyzed and yielded the following results: the accuracy and efficiency of surving play a critical role in determining the result of the game, especially when levels of the two players are very close. Absence of focus and loss of accuracy in serving leads to increase in the number of double fault. That in turn leads to losing too many rounds in games and it also leads contender to win faultless rounds without any effort.
