Since 2022, the U.S. Open has had no line judges. Instead, the tournament uses Hawk-Eye Live, an electronic line calling system, to judge whether a ball is in or out. Hawk-Eye has replaced hundreds of human referees at the U.S. Open and other major tournaments. But some tournaments, like the French Open, refuse to use Hawk-Eye for officiating purposes. In 2011, Sony purchased Hawk-Eye Innovations and the company has only grown since then. Hawk-Eye covers the majority of tennis tournaments on the WTA and ATP tours, as well as having a presence at the FIFA World Cup, the MLS, NFL, WNBA and in the upcoming NBA season.
CNBC traveled to the U.S. Open to speak with the Hawk-Eye team to understand how Hawk-Eye works in tennis and other major sports.
Corrections on Sept. 12, 2023 at timecode 3:39: The Hawk-Eye cameras used in tennis shoot at 72 fps; timecode 9:38: The WNBA used Hawk-Eye in the past but it is not currently a customer.

If following the rules strictly does make the games less enjoyable, perhaps it is the rules that should be changed, not the machine. It's a necessary change that is coming some 20 years later than it should.

Here's the thing: no professional athlete get's paid because they are good at their particular sport or beacuse they win games and matches, they get paid because people want to watch them play their games. Sport is fun, interesting and full of emotions - or in other words: sport is entertainment and athletes are entertainers. Like it or not, a huge part of that entertainment is fans gettting infuriated by referee decisions and having discussions about stuff like whether or not a ball was in or out and all the "what if" scenarios that follow each possibly wrong decision. If you would know everything for certain, if every single decision would be 100% correct and every single rule would be followed to the letter, sports would lose a big part of their emotional appeal and entertainment factor - and in the end, athletes would lose money.

The reason it is not used on clay is due to the surface. The system needs to be within a certain percentage of accuracy and due to the clay surface being more uneven and ever changing the accuracy of Hawkeye is not in the same percentile as it is on other surface thus making it less accurate. This is why they prefer to check the mark on clay instead.
@dsdgdsfegfeg
@dsdgdsfegfeg 8 місяців тому
​@@AFCompany That is definitely not the reason. The reason is either 1: Romance of referee calling traditional rubbish or keeping tradition of Clay surface (it stands out from other Major Opens 2: Referee Unions 3: Cost of replacing all clay surfaces to use touch sensitive tape or the Hawkeye system 4: Another likely stupid unknown
@dsdgdsfegfeg
@dsdgdsfegfeg 8 місяців тому
​@@AFCompany With so many capture points even a low 250fps per camera, the final render accuracy would be in the thousands of fps. Regardless of the uneven or changing 1-20mm surface depth differences of clay .. the system render would still know the Y axis bottom ball point location every time vs the stationary x/z axis point of the line while rendering. "Calling it" is still just a simple (ball Y axis) vs (line X/Y axis) vs time calculation. Then consider all the wrong or missing mark calls of the current system vs all the gigantic benefits of the system. And you realize the real reason is in my previous comment above. Even Hawkeye said they approve it for Clay, I'm sure they have thought about it even more than I just did in a few seconds.

One word: SERENA. That infamous 2004 QF match against Capriati with so many obviously bad calls changed the game. Anytime there was major drama at a US Open match involving Serena and bad calls (2004/2009/2010/2018), it led to changes in the adoption of more technology to eliminate errors in judgement and increase fairness for players. Now with the 2023 USO, it has gone even further with great results. The use of electronic line tape, Hawk-Eye, and other systems means calls can be made reliably, confidently, and with little pushback from players and spectators. Instead, we can focus on the game and not the calls. Serena went through a lot, but we got there in the end.

@@dsdgdsfegfeg The US Open has always been the leader in tennis. Second oldest after Wimbledon, but the only major that's run uninterrupted, the original tennis governing body had to convince the US to join them because its event was more popular. The US Open has the largest purse and tennis court in the sport. It was the first Major to implement equal pay (50 years ago). In 2006, the US Open was the first Major to use the Hawk-Eye system followed by AO in 2007. Now, the USO has gone beyond that. Only the Australian Open is comparable in terms of embracing technology and having a well run tournament. AO has the highest attendance (~800k+), but the smallest purse.

Just assuming you could some how figure out a system to determine penalties/fouls in the NFL as it's a tiny bit more complicated compared to if a round ball is on one side of a line or another. It would end up being a major shitshow, you know at the end of an NBA game where it seems like a penalty is called every possession well imagine every single play having penalties thrown... and how many of them will be offsetting, the game would never end! But hey if someone can figure it out then more power to them, it would be quite interesting to say the least how they could do it.

I think the only real place for it in the NFL is determining whether a FG is good, or whether the ball crossed the plane of the endzone. Where you could see a huge impact is in MLB. Especially calling balls and strikes. Maybe if they can track whether a runner beat a throw but definitely the strike zone.

I assume that when a tennis ball hits the court, it deforms ("squashes") a little, and maybe rolls a tiny bit depending upon the spin. But because sides of the ball are still curved, the portion of the ball touching the surface of the court will be smaller than the total horizontal cross-section of the ball while it is in contact with the surface. So my question is two-fold: (1) When Hawkeye shows where the ball landed, is it showing only where the ball contacted the court, or is it showing a horizontal cross-section of the ball as it contacted the court? (2) Do the rules of tennis have anything to address this? By analogy, think of a golf ball that stops right on the edge of a cup but does not fall in. The bottom of the golf ball obviously is still on the green, but if you look at it from above the side of the golf ball may be over the cup. The golf ball is not sunk, but suppose instead a golf ball and cup we consider a tennis ball and line on the court -- would the tennis ball be in or out?

VAR on offside calls is ruining soccer because it changes what would have been called onside ever since the offside rule was implemented. A player running at speed cant determine if a half inch of their shoulder is ahead of a defender, but they can roughly keep "in line" with the defender. In the past if an attacking player was "in line" they were onside. VAR just needs to ignore the closest calls (say within 6 inches) in favour of overturning more obvious errors.

It’s not a motion detection sensor, but a super fast ball pixel identification system. Imagine having a line judge identify the ball across all 12 cameras, and drawing a line through the shot that way.

Why does Hawk-Eye always show the exact same contact patch? The contact patch differs depending on velocity and angle but Hawk-Eye always shows the same two contact patches. Is the line the boundary mark or is the boundary an invisible vertical plane extending upwards from the line?

The proper way to decide disputed calls is through old fashioned brawling. All the players and referees rush onto the arena and start slugging it out, and the last one standing gets to make the final judgement. That's how God intended it to be, damn it! More entertaining that way, too.

It should be made mandatory across all GMs and Masters as the tennis court itself; sure there might be errors in the system - that is continuously learning and improving btw.. -, but in a match is impartial and the same for both (all) players. And it is far more accurate than any human eye could ever be.

This is what you get when watching American media, geo angles on everything even when completely unrelated to geo things. They would have loved to put US vs EU in the title. But realized that was too much of a stretch. So they used a title they thought would still make Americans feel warm and cozy. Despite the content not having anything to do with America at all.

VAR and Hawkeye are two separate things.. VAR for offside is done manually by drawing lines on last defender and does not use Hawkeye. They introduced semi automated offsides for 22 world cup alone. And even that technology is not Hawkeye. Only goal line decisions use Hawkeye and that is the only thing that works amongst all the other VAR mess which has nothing to do with the technology and everything to do with the human implementation. I don't see what Hawkeye gotta do with all the VAR controversy.

I definitely don't saw Hawk-Eye is less reliable than human line judging on tennis. Nonetheless, I feel you have some very weak spots in your documentary: - First of all, you need to distinguish much more strictly between live calls (like now used in the US Open) and challenges. For technical reasons, the post-shot challenge system can work significantly more accurate. - Accuracy: Hawk-Eye is projecting the trajectory of the ball. It is NOT determining where the ball exactly landed. Also, the deformation of the ball when it hits the ground is simulated. Many close Hawk-Eye calls are not reliable due to these reasons. Unfortunately, Sony/Hawk-Eye stopped giving proven results about the accuracy of the live and the challenge system nowadays. - They do use more cameras than they need, but especially due to the projection of the ball, a player typically blocking some of them is an issue. You see that, for example at the phantom goal in soccer in England Hawk-Eye gave last year (the view on the ball was blocked by the goalie and the goal post and thus the trajectory was wrong). I am sure that in average Hawk-Eye does better calls than the human eye. However, once you say or suggest it does correct calls, you are wrong. As you say in the documentary, it is a shame that there is not a peer with another system in the market, who is challenging Hawk-Eye... Would be great to compare two approaches.

​@@MichaelWalker-wu2pqyour correct, a surface has zero impact on 3D spatial tracking focused on a ball and white lines. Their "ball bounce mark" excuse is hoping to romanticize this angle as tradition as part of the game. No doubt the referee Union's trying to keep their jobs.

It's always been the runt of the Majors. WC is the oldest / most prestigious. USO is the most continuous, most tech savvy, has the largest court, most celebrities, and highest prize money. AO is the most attended and well run. The FO/RG is the most physically demanding because of the surface. They also have the unfriendliest crowd. Players win it because they have to, not because it's their favorite.
