How to Play
Building Your Lineup
Each contest has a salary cap. Select players across different price tiers to maximize your roster strength while staying under budget. Your lineup typically includes:
- Top Players (3-4): High-cost favorites with consistent performance
- Mid-Tier Players (2-3): Value picks with good matchups
- Risky Picks (1-2): Budget players with upset potential
- Captain Choice: One player who earns 1.5x points
Contest Types
Grand Slam Contests: Multi-day tournaments covering entire major championships. Build daily lineups as the tournament progresses.
Daily Contests: Single-day competitions based on scheduled ATP/WTA matches. Quick turnaround and immediate results.
Head-to-Head: Compete against one opponent. Winner takes the leaderboard with highest score.
Tournament Leagues: Large-field contests with hundreds of participants. Top finishers climb the overall leaderboard.
Winning Strategies
🎯 Research Matchups
Study head-to-head records, surface preferences, and recent form. Clay court specialists dominate on red dirt while serve-and-volley players excel on grass.
📊 Monitor Live Stats
Track first-serve percentages, break point conversion rates, and unforced errors. Adjust future lineups based on trending player performance.
💰 Balance Your Budget
Don’t blow the entire salary cap on top seeds. Mix favorites with value plays. One underdog breakthrough can vault you up the leaderboard.
👑 Choose Captain Wisely
The 1.5x multiplier is crucial. Pick a player with high floor (consistent scoring) and ceiling (explosive potential). Consider favorable matchups.
🌍 Surface Matters
Hard court, clay, and grass play differently. Rafael Nadal dominates clay, while players like Roger Federer historically excelled on grass courts.
⚡ Late Swap Strategy
Monitor injury reports and last-minute withdrawals. Swap players before contest lock to avoid zero-point roster spots from scratched players.
Scoring Example
Let’s see how a strong performance translates to fantasy points:
Player: Top Seed (Captain – 1.5x multiplier)
- Match Win: +50 points
- 3 Sets Won: 3 × 20 = +60 points
- 18 Games Won: 18 × 4 = +72 points
- 12 Aces: 12 × 8 = +96 points
- 5 Break Points Won: 5 × 12 = +60 points
- Straight Sets Win Bonus: +25 points
- 10+ Aces Bonus: +20 points
Base Total: 383 points
Captain Multiplier: 383 × 1.5 = 574.5 points
Important Reminders
- Players who withdraw after contest lock will score 0 points. Always check injury news.
- Match retirements count as losses with 0 points for all remaining scoring opportunities.
- Scoring is based on official ATP/WTA statistics. Disputed calls follow tournament rulings.
- Captain selection is final at contest lock. Choose carefully before deadline.
