Bye
How to understand the tennis expression “Bye”?
What is a Bye in tennis?
Who tournaments award byes to?
Bye in tennis is the automatic of a seeded singles player or doubles team from one round to the next without having to compete against an opponent.
A bye in tennis is typically the result of specific draw sizes where the number of players does not allow for every player to participate in a first-round match. Here’s a look at how many players receive a bye per draw size in singles:
- Draw of 28: the top 4 seeds awarded a bye
- Draw of 48: the top 16 seeds awarded a bye
- Draw of 56: the top 8 seeds awarded a bye
- Draw of 96: the top 32 seeds awarded a bye
For doubles, a draw of 24 would result in a bye for the top 8 seeds.
As you can see, tournaments award byes to seeded players who have the highest rankings. The exception to this rule are cases where a bye is a result of insufficient direct acceptances.
Examples of Bye in a sentence:
- Roger Federer received a bye because he’s a top-seeded player.
- I’ve been playing tournaments for years and never received a bye.
