Reception.
"GamePro" stated in their review that "ATP scores a decisive win over EA's recent "IMG International Tennis Tour"." They particularly praised the game's numerous options, solid controls, and adjustable difficulty, though they did criticize that the scaling of the ball "sometimes distracts you more than it helps you." A reviewer for "Next Generation" applauded the game's originality, commenting that "The usual "Pong" feel of previous tennis games is still all here, but the ability to lob a pass, drill a passing shot, cut the ball, and nail 100 mph serves on the chalk, makes this absolutely the best Genesis tennis product to date." Additionally complimenting the highly challenging AI and accessible gameplay, he gave it four out of five stars.
