Online resources: This study evaluates potential factors determining match wins in tennis Grand Slam men's singles. Previous studies used true experimental designs, quasi-experimental designs and questionnaire surveys with small sample sizes to capture the conditions in the events. However, they generally fall short of producing a comprehensive answer to the key research question. The authors use a large-scale sample of 9144 matches (including 845 players) in tennis men's singles Grand Slam tournaments from 1991 to 2008, retrieved from the official open-access website of the Association of Tennis Professionals.
