GAME GUIDES

How to play Career mode

In Career, you take one singles player from their first unranked week through a season of training and tournaments. You decide how to spend each week. When your player takes the court, the game simulates the rallies.

Build your rookie

From the mode screen, choose Career, then Start new career. Name your 18-year-old player, pick a country and choose men’s or women’s singles. Each of the seven attributes starts at 50. Spend all 40 starting points, with a maximum of 65 in any one attribute, then choose one trait on the radar to unlock Create player.

For example, put 15 points into Attack, 15 into Defense and 10 into Stamina. That gives you 65 Attack, 65 Defense and 60 Stamina. If you’d rather play to a stronger front court, put those last 10 into Net instead. You can train any of these skills later.

Click a trait’s name or point on the radar to select it. Your starting rating updates to include its bonus. The green and red points show the opposing traits it is strong and weak against. Compare all 11 traits and learn the radar.

Choose a coach for the season

Open Coaches and choose one of five candidates. Each has two positive stat modifiers and one negative modifier. A shared country gives extra chemistry, and keeping the coach next season builds more. Check the full modifiers before selecting Hire → Confirm hire. Read the coach and chemistry guide.

Make your first weekly decision

Open Schedule to see what’s coming up, then return to Home → Continue. Choose Play to see this week’s tournaments. Select an eligible event and choose Enter tournament. If the event you want is still a week away, a training camp can improve two stats in the meantime. If you’re tired, Rest takes a week and removes up to 35 fatigue.

Follow the match and collect your result

In the draw, choose Play match. Watch the score and rally commentary, pause at a close point or use Skip to result to finish the same match immediately. The result reveals your match XP. After a win, follow the next-round button. After elimination, continue through the tournament results to advance the week.

Return to your player

Use Player Profile to inspect ratings and spend General XP. Open Standings for your world rank. When you come back to the same browser or app, choose Career → Continue saved career. Starting another career and completing its player creation replaces the active save.
