Tennis Prestige is an academic research project founded by Filippo Radicchi, associate professor in the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering at Indiana University.

Tennis Prestige uses publicly available data about tennis matches to generate a weighted and directed network of contacts among players, and then measure their performance with Prestige Score, a variant of the well-known PageRank centrality. For technical details, see the paper Who Is the Best Player Ever? A Complex Network Analysis of the History of Professional Tennis, PLoS ONE 67, e17249 (2011). Data have been collected from this repository.

Tennis Prestige provides an up-to-date ranking of tennis players, and rankings of previous years. For each player in the database, Tennis Prestige shows a graph representing the evolution of the Prestige Rank of the player along his career. Tennis Prestige also offers a search engine to easily retrieve players in the database. Tennis Prestige is powered by Django and NetworkX. Visualizations rely on the libraries Google charts.
