With regards to the gameplay, Pro Tennis WTA Tour presents simplistic, arcade-style play mechanics, together with an accurate simulation of the sport. All the featured playing surfaces, such as grass, clay, and carpet accurately emulate their respective physics, ensuring players experience a little variety in terms of handling and thus providing a lengthier learning curve and more challenging matches.
As far as game modes are concerned, it's pretty much a standard affair. The usual array of tournaments, single player matches and multiplayer doubles games can be found, nothing seems to have been overlooked by Konami.
Pro Tennis WTA Tour is a very competent title. Konami's well-respected range of sports titles continues to grow.
