We just got an email from Betfair indicating that they are pulling the live score feed from the API for WTA events.
BDP @ Betfair wrote:Hi,

Due to a recent changes with our feed supplier, WTA tennis events will no longer be made available via the Tennis Scores API with immediate effect.

ATP events will continue to be provided as usual via the Tennis Scores API.

For a schedule of up and coming ATP events please see the ATP website (https://www.atptour.com/en/tournaments)

Kind Regards

Betfair Developer Program

This is a huge loss to Bet Angels tennis trading weapon! Must be to do with the exclusivity deal WTA have recently agreed.

https://www.statsperform.com/press/stat ... ded%20tour.

Will betfair buy the rights to stream the data again? Does Bet Angel have a plan to resolve this?

Hopefully it will be sorted soon?

Is this now an issue with ATP?

Nothing coming through for tonight's AO mens games.

I've just seen that the Tennis Trader isn't getting the scores through and on Betfair their scores aren't updating very well at all.

Unfortunately Betfair doesn't pay for the feed from the Aussie open, that includes ATP as well.

i'm afraid that would probably land BA in a few legal battles, unless they had licenced permission to do so. that would no doubt come at a cost to the BA licence and would be something that users that don't use TT would possibly begrudge...

there are of course other options using Excel etc... just need to sharpen your own vba/scraping skills and it's all out there ;)

Interesting, I'm just looking at the Watch List for WTA Doha Qualifiers. I have API scoring back.

Really hoping BF have come to a licensing agreement and it's going to be permanent.

Does Advantage usually show as "A", not "Ad" as well ?

RE; Ad/A, TBH i'm not 100%, I'm sure it was always AD but i'd need to did out some screenshots to see if I could find one

Fingers crossed. Though I've just spent weeks coding an alternative via another API so much of that would go in the bin. Though that has given me access in BA to any in game stat you can name so not entirely wasted 👍

AD may just be my memory going..

You've got me thinking about the AD part, I wouldn't of though anything of it if you hadn't said but now you have its got me scratching my head cos I think it's possible may be the case - or you've planted a dud seed :lol:

I think I'm right. Just checked the mens and its "Av", womens is now "Ad"
Hopefully that doesnt affect anything in the fixed score BA conditions
