frugal, I can build a pure number if ya want, thats just a few key strokes, thats easy, Im trying to make the largest WTA database in the history of the world
All in all, this is a pretty nice idea. I was looking for a tennis DB last year, but I gave up, could not find anything even remotely close to DBs for e.g. NBA. I'd be surprised though if there no some DBs available privately, I mean matchstat has most of the needed data, but it is not searchable in e.g. sdql format. One advice though - excel is not really a great tool to build a big DB.
yes, its win-loss-push and over-under-push when referencing totals, and yes you are correct frugal, the database itself won't be in Excel, however I'm building the footprint in Excel as the database will be available in multiple formats down the line to match the OS and client desires (even looking at a few Linux versions to be available) but the Excel core data can import to nearly anything
sorry I didn't get more stats out last night, fell asleep on the couch watching discovery channel LOL, will post stats for Thursday matches later today
updated completely thru today, saving now, which takes about 2 hours... going to post stats around 11PM ish EST
and I try to make it as transparent as possible, any stats starting with ML will always be Moneyline or AKA Straight Up (only having a W/L) but ATS is posted WIN-LOSS-PUSH and O/U (totals) are posted OVER-UNDER-PUSH
all lines are from 5dimes as I find them the most consistent to track, but knowing many people shop lines, thats why I post ranges as well (EG Player A is X-X-X ATS when line is -1.5 thru -3 but X-X-X ATS when line exactly -2)
I try to post as so to make it easy to read, but any questions, please feel free to ask, R2=Round 2, YTD=Year to Date

gonna be quick on the last two matches, sorry, I still got data entry to do for today.....
sorry for being short at the end, but got data entry to do before bed, and sorry for no totals, goal is to eventually have it as user access database guaranteed updated before 3 hours prior to next event start.
kinda why I'm not afraid to share this basic information, cause I've built this so much bigger that meets the eye, anyone can copy these stats and keep them manually, but come start of 2017, they have no chance of keeping up, my last post is literally 15% or 20% of what I have
an abbreviated version tonight (I had an issue with my left contact & couldn't read the screen for the last 2 hours) I'm sure anyone that wears contacts understands that frustration....
plus these are delayed stats as I was unable to input & save these players R2 matches (cause of the contact issue)
other than R2 French Open, its all up to date
I'm just gonna rapid fire what I see
Ivanovic 5-10-0 UNDER CTR court YTD, 4-8-0 UNDER CTR court as FAV, Svitolina 9-4-0 OVER CTR CT, 3-0-0 OVER CTR CT as DOG, Bertens 5-5-1 YTD, 4-4-0 as FAV, Kasatkina 5-6-0 YTD 3-3-0 as dog CTR CT
sorry I'm falling asleep guys, thats why in 2017 this will be a sub service for a nominal fee with much more expanded options I haven't even posted yet, I basically just want to cover my costs for hosing the database.... if I make enough profit to buy a burrito I'll be happy, doing this for WTA bettors, not for myself
