February 2025 - We overhauled the design, improving speed and user experience. We also added new statistics such as pressure points, player yields, and time spent on the court. On the match side, we included pre-match odds and live odds for matches where they are available.
What are Pressure Points?
Pressure points generally refer to points that a player must win on their serve. For example, a break point is typically considered a pressure point. However, since we provide separate statistics for break points saved or lost, our pressure points statistic highlights a slightly different scenario:
- When a player serves and the score is 0-30, 15-30, 30-30 or 40-40, we consider it a pressure point because any mistake could lead to a break point. Since situations like 0-40, 15-40, 30-40 or 40-A are already covered under "break points saved" or "break points against" (depending on the outcome), our pressure points statistic offers additional insight into a player's ability to stay focused and perform under pressure.
What is the Player Yield?
The player yield is calculated by placing a virtual $1 bet on each match the player participates in, provided there are odds available. We don't focus on the odds value — just a flat $1 bet per match. This method allows us to calculate the real return.
However, we also apply a higher virtual stake (for example, $10) when the player is either a favorite or an underdog. An underdog means a non-favorite, where the player starts with the second chance to win. Apart from situations where the odds are even for both players, this approach offers insights such as:
- Underdog Success: If the player is an underdog and wins often, it highlights his/her ability to produce upsets of varying magnitude. The bigger the profit in the Total Profit, the bigger the upset (since higher odds bring greater returns).
- Favorite Consistency: If the player is a favorite and wins consistently, you can compare the ROI and take advantage of favorable odds. For example, betting on a Top 3 player who consistently wins as a favorite will yield decent odds only when they play against almost equal opponents (which usually happens in the final stages of tournaments).
- The same principle applies to players ranked within the Top 100, where odds tend to be higher. For instance, if player #45 plays against player #60, the odds for both players are likely greater, offering more value.
What are the player's Betting Stats?
The Betting Stats on the player page can help you identify patterns in the player’s game. The most useful ones are the Over/Under statistics for sets and games. For games (either "total per match" or "for player"), you can calculate the Under percentage by subtracting the Over value from 100. For example, if Over 14.5 is 75%, then Under 14.5 is 25%.
