| Nov 12, 2014 at 22:47 | comment | added | jamauss | I've scoured the internet looking for as much data as I can possibly find on tennis matches (because I'm in the process of building a fantasy tennis website) and that's the first time I've actually seen point-by-point data for matches. It could be entirely possible that they are the only site offering that - otherwise there are very few other sites offering that level of data on a match. You would think, if that data was widely available in a friendly consumable format, that the canonical tennis website - AtpWorldTour.com - would have that data on it's site. Yet it's nowhere to be found. | |

| Nov 12, 2014 at 18:28 | comment | added | Martin | The same site has point-by-point for French Open for 2012 but not for 2011. But my point is not about this particular site. Obviously, the data exist. (This is probably not the only site that has the data.) Mining them from the format presented on the website and then trying to do some statistics would be really cumbersome. As the data exists, it seems surprising that nobody did some statistical analysis. (Or did they?) | |

| Nov 12, 2014 at 17:36 | comment | added | jamauss | Interesting - I have never come across that Flashscore site before. But I'm not surprised it's a betting site - seems like the betting sites always have the most in-depth data on sports. It appears that "point-by-point" data is only available for matches in 2014 (or maybe didn't start being recorded until this year). Also interesting that for a site that has something as in-depth as "point-by-point" data - it doesn't have a statistic as basic as "winners" for each player in the match. | |
| Nov 12, 2014 at 14:14 | comment | added | Martin | For recent matches, point-by-point records are definitely available, for example see here. The question is whether something similar exists for older matches and whether somebody who has access to those data have done some statistics from them. | |
| Aug 29, 2014 at 19:20 | comment | added | jamauss | I am intimately familiar with what kind of stats are kept on tennis matches and I've never seen a point-by-point record of matches published (if even recorded at any point) for any tennis event ever. Tennis suffers from a pretty big lack of statistics. It's far, far behind sports like baseball or football. | |
| Aug 29, 2014 at 19:16 | comment | added | Tom Au | Those statistics have to exist for the Grand Slams (and other events). You mean that no one has bothered to compile them? | |
