## What Pro Comparisons is for

Pro Comparisons puts two players side by side so you can see how they play. You can compare yourself to a pro, two pros to each other, or your own matches to a pro.

Open it from **Performance Insights → Pro Comparisons**.

We use pro data only for comparing — it never mixes into your own data.

## Pick the two players

The page gives you two pickers, **Player A** and **Player B**:

- Pick a pro from the roster, or pick your own matches for one side.
- Use the **Filter** on each side to narrow down to a year, a season, or a single match.
- Once you've picked a player, you can add a **doubles partner** to compare doubles pairings.

## Read the comparison

- **Shot families** — a side-by-side bar chart of how each player spreads their shots. Click a family to see more detail, and close it again with Escape, the X, or a click outside it.
- **How you lose points** — your lost points split into your own errors and your opponent's winners.
- **How you win points** — your won points split into your opponent's errors and your own winners.
- **Rally length** — how long rallies tend to last and how they spread out.

## Tips

- Compare yourself to a pro who plays a bit like you, then look for habits worth copying.
- Use the filters so you're comparing like with like, such as the same event.
- The comparison means more when your side has enough finished matches behind it.
