How fantasy tennis
works.

Drop Shot scores come from ATP and WTA match results. These are the defaults — league commissioners can customize most rules.

Live during play

Predictions and point-by-point scoring on every match.

Every ATP and WTA match on The Drop Shot ships a pre-match prediction with win probability and head-to-head context. Once play starts, live game and match predictions update point-by-point — your win probability swings rally by rally, and your fantasy score moves with it.

The same engine runs on a Grand Slam Final and an ATP/WTA 250 first-rounder. Tournament-long and season-long contests cover every tour level — Grand Slams, Masters 1000s, ATP and WTA 500s and 250s — so you can root for your players from the Round of 128 all the way to the Final. Our prediction hit-rate is published openly against the closing line.

Pick a format

Sign up for a public league or start a private league where you can pick which tournaments count, then run a snake draft to build your team of ATP and WTA stars.

Play in private leagues or compete for prizes in free public leagues.

Leagues are persistent: same managers year over year. Every season gets its own draft, lineup, and standings.

Pick which tournaments count, or use presets like Grand Slams only or every Masters & Slam.

Queue players in advance. If your pick timer expires, the system auto-picks the top queued name available.

Pick with live draft projections on every available player — projections respect your league's scoring settings and update as picks come in, so you can compare apples to apples while you’re on the clock.

Commissioners control invites, league size, tournaments, scoring, waiver schedule, and draft timing.
