TennisExplorer Match Results Scraper

This tennis match results scraper exports public TennisExplorer results for one or more dates and tours. Get tournament context, both players, final and set scores, and publicly displayed odds in clean dataset rows for a reliable tennis results API workflow.

Who is it for?

This TennisExplorer scraper is for tennis analysts, sports-data teams, journalists, and developers who need a repeatable export of completed matches shown publicly on TennisExplorer.

Use it to create a date-based result archive, refresh a daily ATP or WTA feed, or send normalized match rows to a spreadsheet, database, dashboard, or AI workflow.

What it exports

Each match row includes the requested date, tour filter, tournament and match links, TennisExplorer match ID, player names and links, winner, final score, set-by-set score pairs, and odds where they are publicly displayed.

• Match identity: source URL, match URL, and match ID.
• Tournament context: tournament name, tournament URL, selected tour, and requested date.
• Players and result: both player names, public profile links, winner, score, and set scores.
• Optional public values: odds, round, and status only when they are shown in the source result list.

Tennis results API use cases

• Build historical tennis result datasets by calendar date.

API usage

Run the Actor from the Apify API with your normal Actor input, then download the default dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML.

Node.js

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('fetch_cat/tennisexplorer-match-results-scraper').call({
  dates: ['2026-08-27'],
  tours: ['atp-single'],
  maxItems: 20,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("fetch_cat/tennisexplorer-match-results-scraper").call(run_input={
    "dates": ["2026-08-27"],
    "tours": ["wta-single"],
    "maxItems": 20,
})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
print(items)

cURL

curl -X POST \
  "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/fetch_cat~tennisexplorer-match-results-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"dates":["2026-08-27"],"tours":["atp-single"],"maxItems":20}'

MCP and AI agents

Use this Actor from an MCP-compatible AI client through Apify MCP. Add ?tools=fetch_cat/tennisexplorer-match-results-scraper to the MCP server URL so your client can discover this Actor as an available tool:

https://mcp.apify.com?tools=fetch_cat/tennisexplorer-match-results-scraper

Add the server to Claude Code, then scope tool discovery to this Actor:

claude mcp add apify --transport http "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=fetch_cat/tennisexplorer-match-results-scraper"

Or use this MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=fetch_cat/tennisexplorer-match-results-scraper"
    }
  }
}

Example prompts:

• "Export up to 20 ATP singles results for 2026-08-27 and summarize the winners."
• "Fetch public WTA singles results for 2026-08-27, retaining source URLs and any displayed odds."

Give the agent a date, one or more tours, and a conservative maxItems value. Ask it to retain the returned dataset fields and distinguish unavailable public values from missing data.

Tips for reliable exports

• Use ISO dates such as 2026-08-27.
• Start with one date and a low maxItems value to validate your downstream mapping.
• Choose atp-single or wta-single when you need a single competition category.
• Preserve sourceUrl and matchUrl in downstream data for review and traceability.
• Treat optional values as nullable: public result pages do not display every field for every match.

Data and responsible use

Use this Actor only for public TennisExplorer results and comply with TennisExplorer terms, applicable law, and the limits of the source data. Do not treat a missing public field as a factual value.

Support

For input or output questions, open an issue from this Actor's Apify page and include the date, tour, and a sample public result URL.
