Watch List Tennis

[kressie99]

Hi All

I am fairly new to Betangel and I have been using the watch list to keep track on some tennis games but I can only see some of the scores live in teh watch list. Some games dont seem to sinc and dont show any score. Is that correct or am I doing something wrong?

Not all matches can be guaranteed to provide a feed via the API. That's at Betfair's discretion.

I was going to ask if there was a away to identify which will/wont have the feed within guardian?
My rules are mostly score dependant so after applying to all the days matches i then have to use an alert when they turn in-play so I can check back to make sure there is a feed.

It's usually by tournament. We know Betfair planned to cover the Australian open, but it's possible the players could be in the wrong order. We don't know until it starts! Not ideal!

But typically if a tournament is listed it will be a main ATP or WTA tournament and a feed will be on for the whole tournament. Minor tournaments are unlikely to be included.

Thanks for the replies. This may be a silly question but does that then mean that any games I have automated trades on wont work?

If they are triggered based on score conditions without a score feed those parts wont fire
