What the competition is
The circuit’s calendar contains different tournament levels and a season-ending championship. Rankings and a calendar-year race serve related but different purposes. Grand Slam tournaments form another event category and should not be relabelled ATP 1000 simply because leading ATP players enter them. Challenger events also belong to a distinct level of the men’s professional pathway.
Following the competition
For a useful match entry, keep the actual tournament, draw and round rather than only ATP. A player can appear in singles and doubles during the same week. Tournament location and local date are necessary for Australian time conversion; the tour brand itself has no single home time zone. Two saved ATP logos are treated here as alternate visual marks for the same circuit.
| Detail | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Tour | A circuit spanning many tournaments. |
| 250, 500 and 1000 | Event-level labels rather than viewing packages. |
| Grand Slams | A separate tournament category. |
| Asset reconciliation | Two ATP visual records map to one underlying identity. |
