Season statistics
Each stat is stored as a value–count pair, so seasons can be added together and the rate is always value ÷ count.
2003–2007 · 3 games summed across the range
| Stat | Value | Count | Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aces | 14 | 47.5 service games | 0.3 / game |
| Double faults | 17 | 47.5 service games | 0.4 / game |
| 1st serve in | 172 | 314 serve points | 55% |
| 1st-serve points won | 109 | 172 1st serves in | 63% |
| 2nd-serve points won | 65 | 142 2nd serves | 46% |
| Service points won | 174 | 314 serve points | 55% |
| Return points lost | 126 | 321 return points | 39% |
| Break points saved | 20 | 39 faced | 51% |
Value is what happened (aces hit, points won), count is how often it could (service games, points played). Adding seasons adds both — the rate is never averaged from percentages.
