Guess today's player
How to play
- Guess any player. Start typing a name and pick from the list. All 216 players can be guessed.
- Read the tiles. Green means that clue matches the mystery player, yellow means close, grey means wrong.
- Follow the arrows. ↑ or ↓ on the peak year and rating tell you if the answer is higher or lower.
- Get it in 8. Then share your grid (no spoilers) and keep your daily streak going.
The six clues
- Country
- The country the player represents.
- Peak
- The year his best years began. Yellow if within 3 years.
- Hand
- Left-handed or right-handed.
- Era
- Legend (a past great) or Modern.
- OVR
- Overall rating out of 100. Yellow if within 2.
- Skill
- His best skill: serve, return, forehand, backhand, net, movement or mental.
Tips
Open with a player from the middle of the timeline, like a 1990s or 2000s star, so the peak arrow splits the field in half. Then use country and hand to narrow it down: lefties are rare, so a green hand tile is a big clue.
