Top 4 tennis websites for detailed player and match statistics
Free, open-access tools helping tennis professionals and analysts go beyond the scoreline.
Atptour.com
The official ATP website provides all the essential stats: head-to-head records, current rankings, aces, double faults, first-serve percentages, points won, break points, and more.
A dedicated leaderboard section breaks down player performance into three key categories: Serve, Return, and Under Pressure. Each category can be filtered by surface type and ranking groups — top 10, top 20, or top 50 players. Historical data is available dating back to 1991, offering deep insights into long-term trends — including the Big Three era.
You’ll also find broader career statistics, such as total aces or performance under pressure. On clay, of course, it’s Nadal; on hard courts, Djokovic leads. But on grass? The leader might surprise you.
Wtatennis.com
Compared to the ATP, WTA statistics are more limited in scope — but still offer valuable insights. The platform provides head-to-head records and detailed breakdowns of serving and return performance.
In the serving section, for instance, you’ll find familiar metrics such as aces, double faults, first-serve percentage, and points won on the first serve. Notably, the WTA reports the exact total number of double faults, while the ATP displays an average per match — a small but meaningful distinction.
Data can be viewed as a ranked list or accessed via individual player profiles. Historical records date back to 2010.
Tennisabstract.com
Tennis Abstract is one of the most comprehensive and advanced open-access tennis analytics platforms. It offers detailed match histories — including tournament level, opponent, round, surface, and head-to-head records. For each player’s last 20 matches, you can access deeper stats such as winners, unforced errors, and serve speeds. The platform also tracks rally patterns, showing the percentage of points won in rallies lasting 1–3, 4–6, or 10+ strokes.
In addition, Tennis Abstract analyzes player tactics across 13 specific metrics, offering a granular view of match strategy. A built-in glossary helps users navigate technical terms and metrics with ease.
The site also includes year-end rankings and career summaries — not just titles, but finals appearances, tie-break performance, and surface-based records. Beyond standard win percentages, users can explore performance by surface, tie-break success at Grand Slams, records against top 10 opponents, and even outcomes based on whether the opponent is right- or left-handed.
A standout feature is the Elo rating system — a data-driven alternative to traditional ATP and WTA rankings. While tour rankings are based on points accumulated over 52 weeks, Elo reflects a player’s current form, weighting each match by opponent strength and context. For example, Djokovic currently sits at No. 6 in the ATP live rankings but ranks No. 3 by Elo. Interestingly, Sinner is the only top-10 player with identical placement in both systems.
Ultimatetennisstatistics.com
Ultimate Tennis Statistics focuses on highly specific and often overlooked records. The platform allows users to explore detailed leaderboards and historical data points — such as who holds the record for most aces at the Olympics, or who has committed the most double faults overall (spoiler: it’s the same player).
You can also find stats on the fastest serve ever recorded and the match with the highest number of double faults. While these data points may seem niche, they offer unique angles for media, commentary, and player profiling.
These four platforms represent the most widely used open-access tools for tennis statistics and performance analysis. They offer a solid starting point for professionals, analysts, and enthusiasts looking to explore data without subscription barriers.
At the same time, the analytics landscape extends well beyond open platforms. A growing ecosystem of paid tools — from advanced performance dashboards to tailored scouting services — is taking shape. Many specialists also offer personalized match reports, tactical breakdowns, and development-focused insights. We’ll explore these commercial and custom analytics solutions in future articles.
