  • search_tournamentsSearch the tournament catalogue — the stable id space that match objects carry as tournament_id. Returns surface, indoor, host city/country and category where curated. Works on the FREE plan (no card needed).

Use this for historical questions ("Borg's Wimbledon finals"); the archive ends 2022-12-31 where our own results (get_recent_results) begin. Requires the BASIC plan or any History plan.
  • get_archive_matchOne 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.
