Customized Scores for Tennis
I'm pretty sure anyone else holding a tennis tournament would appreciate this as well. I have two suggestions.
The first request is mainly for people printing out the bracket, as those who check out the brackets online can just highlight over the score to see a more detailed score.
Right now your system only displays match scores in terms of sets (i.e. 2-0 or 2-1) when you print it out. Is there an option that allows for the entire set scores to be displayed? For example:
2-0 could mean 7-6, 6-0 or 6-4, 6-1, etc.
2-1 could be 6-7, 7-6, 7-6.
The simple match score doesn't tell much information. 2-0 could mean a very fast tennis match, or a very close one.
The second request applies to both the online bracket and the printed bracket. In tennis we have something called tiebreakers, which involves an extra set of scores to be recorded.
Usually when you get to 6-6 in a set, a tiebreaker has to be played to determine who gets 7-6 and wins the set. The tiebreaker score is then displayed with the set score, like this example: 7-6 (9-7)
So something like this:
7-6, 6-4, 6-7
Looks more like this:
7-6 (7-5), 6-4, 6-7 (8-10)
Anything that is in parentheses is considered a tiebreaker score.

Turmeric curcumin supplements have been a game-changer for me when it comes to managing inflammation and supporting overall health. Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, is known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
I started taking a turmeric curcumin supplement a few months ago, and I've noticed a significant improvement in my joint pain and overall inflammation levels. I feel more energetic and have noticed a positive difference in my skin health as well.
One of the things I love most about turmeric curcumin supplements is their natural and gentle approach to managing inflammation. Unlike some over-the-counter medications, turmeric curcumin supplements don't have any harsh side effects and can be safely taken long-term.
If you're looking for a natural way to support your health and manage inflammation, I highly recommend giving turmeric curcumin supplements a try. They've made a noticeable difference in my life, and I'm sure they can do the same for you. http://www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Supplement-Quercetin-Bromelain/dp/B0CGXXV9Q7

Many sports apps offer live scores and updates for various sports, including tennis. Examples include the official ATP/WTA apps, ESPN, Flash Score, and Tennis 24. These apps often provide customizable settings to track specific players or tournaments of interest. Triathlon, a challenging multisport event, encompasses swimming, cycling, and running. Athletes push their limits as they swim through open water, hop on their bikes for grueling rides, and conclude with a demanding run. To learn more about the world of triathlon, https://triworldhub.com/ is a good option for both beginners and seasoned triathletes.

I also support this feature and I would like to add one more thing and also suggest an idea of how this could be implemented easily (well the developers will know better if this is easy).
Sometimes,a player may withdraw during a match, usually due to injury, causing the player to forfeit his/her place in the tournament. The other player then advances and we record this with the score at the time of withdrawal and the abbreviation "ret." (retirement). If there is a pre-match withdrawal, then again the other player advances and we record this with the abbreviation "w.o." (walk over).
All this could be implemented easily if, similar to adding a set in the scoring record, one could add a text box where he could write something (either the tie break score, or the "ret." and "w.o." abbreviations. This text box could be in the form of the two little squares you get when you add a set. The only difference would be that they would accept a text string as an entry (maybe they could have also different color). Then when there is a tie break one would add text like this (7) in the little box of the player who won the tie breaker and (5) in the box of the player who lost it. Then one could continue adding the next set. In the case of a withdrawal one would just add the relevant abbreviations either next to the player who advances if it is a walkover or next to the player who withdrew if it is a retirement.
If you could implement this somehow this would be the best site for running tennis tournaments.
Thanks

This idea also apply to Post-season type of series: ex. best of 3 or best of 5 series.

Anyone knows how to insert a minus valued score using their API? Ie, the score is 5 againts -8 (5--8), so, how to submit the score with minus value? Thanks in advance!

Also, sometimes the third set of a match is played completely as a tiebreaker, so a score could look like this:
6-3, 2-6, (10-5)There are usually two ways to play a tiebreaker: the 7-point tiebreaker or the 10-point tiebreaker. This simply just means "first to 7 points, win by 2 points" or "first to 10 points, win by 2 points".
