Editorial independence
CourtValue Research publishes model-led tennis pricing analysis. Subscription status controls access, not the mathematical outcome of a calculation. Commercial considerations do not change selection labels or historical settlement.
Clear product labels
Official Picks, Don’t Bet warnings and Double Up selections are separate. Only Official Picks enter performance tracking. A player shown as an Official Pick can never simultaneously be labelled as a Don’t Bet warning in the same match.
Publication standard
We verify player identity, tournament, surface, status and displayed market odds before publication. Finished matches, cancelled matches and walkovers are excluded from active selections. After play begins, a selected player whose opponent retires is settled as a win; a selected player who retires is void and excluded from win/loss tracking.
Authorship
Site analysis is produced by CourtValue Research, the editorial and quantitative function of CourtValue Tennis. Method changes are documented on the Method page and applied prospectively unless correcting a factual data error.
Automation and human rules
Scheduling, player-data collection, Elo comparison, page creation and result updates are automated. CourtValue’s published identity checks, eligibility rules, product labels and correction policy govern that automation. Prediction pages disclose their sources and update times, and missing H2H or player statistics are labelled instead of invented.
