Why tennis organisers use it
- Seeded knockout draws: random, by rating or manual
- Automatic byes and a 3rd-place playoff
- Singles and doubles
- Best of 3 or 5 sets with Pro
Everything runs on your iPhone or iPad with no account and no ads, and running a tournament doesn't need a connection, so a sports hall with no signal is no problem.
Best formats for tennis
Single Elimination
Classic knockout. Win and you're through, lose and you're out.
FreeRound Robin
Everyone plays everyone. Sit-outs rotate fairly and repeat matchups are kept to a minimum.
ProLadder
Up and down the river. Win and move up, lose and move down.
Scoring
When you pick Tennis, each set's target defaults to 6 games, win by 2. You enter the games won in each set (there's no tie-break scoring inside a set). Multi-set match formats (Best of 3, 5 or 7, or Play all 2 or 4) are part of Pro. Free tournaments record one score per match.

Tennis FAQ
Does it handle tennis sets?
With Pro, choose Best of 3 or Best of 5 and enter the games for each set. Tie-breaks inside a set aren't scored separately.
