    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_archive_career" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    One player's whole career over the results archive (1968–2022): W-L record overall and by surface/level/year, titles, and summed serve statistics with honest coverage — the corpus records serve stats from 1991 only, so matches_with_stats states how many matches the serve block covers. The name must resolve to one person; an ambiguous fragment returns the candidate list to choose from. Requires the BASIC plan or any History plan.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_archive_match" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    One result from the results archive (1968–2022), with per-match serve statistics where the era recorded them — stats are null for most rows before 1991, honestly, never synthesised. Requires the BASIC plan or any History plan.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_charting_match" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Every Match Charting Project stat family for ONE charted match, both players, with the per-set split (set 1, set 2, …, Total) exactly as charted. Charting ids are their own id space (1960–2026), mostly matches with no counterpart in the live tables. Requires the ULTRA plan.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_charting_player" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Career shot-level profile from the Match Charting Project: serve placement (deuce/ad × wide/body/T), return depth and outcomes, net play, clutch break/game/set-point serving, winners and errors by wing, rally-length tendencies — summed over the player's charted matches. COVERAGE IS CURATED (11,646 charted matches back to the 1960s, concentrated on the majors), not full-slate. An ambiguous name returns the candidates to choose from. Requires the ULTRA plan.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Upcoming scheduled tennis fixtures, earliest first — the forward schedule, filterable by tour, player and date. Use this for "what is on this week". Works on the FREE plan (no card needed).

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_h2h" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    The all-time record between two players, across BOTH halves of the product: the results archive (1968–2022) plus our own completed matches (2023 onward). Names are the keys — an ambiguous fragment returns the candidate list to choose from rather than guessing. Totals count only meetings with a known winner; walkovers and retirements are part of the record and each meeting carries its outcome. Requires the BASIC plan or any History plan.

    • The name "get_match" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Full detail for one match by id: players, score, surface, round and status. Includes market prices on PRO and model analysis on ULTRA. Works on the FREE plan (no card needed).

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_match_analysis" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Model analysis for a match: predicted win probability, the model's thesis and the key factors behind it. Requires the ULTRA plan. Match rows carry has_analysis — check it first; a match with no thesis or profile has nothing to return.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_match_odds" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Match-winner market prices for a match — implied probability per player, with bid, ask and mid. Requires the PRO plan. Match rows carry has_market — check it first; a match with no market mapped has no prices to return.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_match_statistics" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    In-play (or final) statistics for one match, in TWO families kept deliberately separate: DERIVED is rebuilt from the point-by-point record (holds/breaks, break points, service/return points); MEASURED is counted upstream and includes what no point record can yield — aces, double faults, the serve split, winners/unforced errors. Measured coverage varies by tour; absent fields are omitted, never zero-filled. Requires the ULTRA plan.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_player_rankings" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Point-in-time ranking records for SPECIFIC players: per system, the newest record in force ON OR BEFORE as_of — never one dated after it. Every other ranking field in this API is the CURRENT value joined at read time; this is the historical answer. Systems are never collapsed: ATP/WTA and the ITF circuits carry rank+points, UTR a rating. ITF and UTR history begins 2026-07-29. Requires the ULTRA plan.

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_rankings" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    The FULL published ranking table in rank order for one system — the newest week at or before as_of. Rows carry player_name as published and a null player_id for players outside our roster, so the table has no silent holes. ATP/WTA history runs deep; the ITF circuits begin 2026-07-29. For point-in-time records of SPECIFIC players use get_player_rankings. Requires the PRO plan.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search the results archive — completed-match RESULTS from 1968 through 2022: ATP and WTA, main draws, qualifying and the ITF/futures tiers. Winner/loser-shaped records with final score, seeds and ranks AT THE TIME of the match.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    The people of the results archive (1968–2022): hand, date of birth, country, height, and career-high rank with the week it was first reached. Their ids are corpus person ids (the winner/loser player_id on archive results), not roster ids — for current players use search_players. Requires the BASIC plan or any History plan.
