New Match Centre debuts alongside an immersive Fan Zone featuring Rally, Infosys' AI–powered humanoid
BENGALURU,
The latest innovations mark a change in how fans engage with tennis, moving from passive viewing to more immersive and participatory experiences. Leveraging its innovative AI-first offering Infosys Topaz, powered by generative and agentic AI, Infosys will deliver real–time insights, intelligent storytelling, personalization, and responsible AI governance throughout the season. This will help enable deeper match understanding and deliver more meaningful fan interactions before, during, and beyond live play across multiple tournaments.
New AI–Powered Innovations Across the LTA Grass Court Season Include:
- Infosys Match Center: A unified digital destination bringing together live scores, draws, schedules, results, player profiles, match statistics, head–to–head comparisons, fan polls, and AI–powered commentary, enabling fans to follow the tournament seamlessly in real time.
- AI Commentary: Powered by Infosys' proprietary AI models and agentic AI framework, delivering context–aware narratives and match insights for a global audience, supported by a human–in–the–loop monitoring approach to ensure accuracy and responsibility.
- Personalized Fan Experience: Secure login–based personalization that allows fans to follow favorite players and matches, surface relevant content, and tailor their digital journey across the website and mobile app.
- Fan Polls: Interactive features that enable fans to participate in key moments, fostering shared engagement around players and matches.

At the HSBC Championships at The Queen's Club, scheduled from June 6 – 21, 2026, Infosys will bring its on–site innovations to life through a dedicated Fan Zone, where fans can meet Rally and experience VR Tennis. Rally is an advanced AI-powered humanoid with enhanced audio and computer-vision capabilities.

Operating under strict responsible AI principles, Rally ensures secure, tennis-focused interactions, making it a standout feature of the Infosys Fan Zone on ground. VR Tennis will further immerse fans by enabling them to design and play in a stadium of their own creation, using voice prompts that are transformed into interactive virtual arenas through generative AI.
