Tennis is one of the most global sporsts in the world. The tour never sits still: Melbourne in January, Paris and London in the summer, New York in the autumn, with stops in Dubai, Buenos Aires, Tokyo, Acapulco and dozens of cities in between. No other sport plants flags in this many corners of the map every single week, which makes it the perfect sport to turn into a geography game. Tennis Around the Globe is a free daily tennis geography game, and it’s live right now at app.brckt.io/map-game. No account needed, takes about two minutes, new journey every day.

How It Works

Every day you get a journey of stops across the tennis world. Each stop is one of two things:

Map stops: read the clue, then tap the map where the answer lives. Land inside the target zone and it’s an Ace (100). Miss, and you lose points based on how far off you land. A near miss in the right region still scores well, and even a long shot keeps a little credit for being in the right ballpark, but tap the wrong continent and you’ll feel it.
Trivia stops: all-or-nothing tennis trivia. Ace or Double Fault, nothing in between.

Your final score is your average across all stops, scored 0–100. Finish the run and you’ll get a Wordle-style emoji line to share (🎾 Ace · 🟢 Winner · 🟡 Unforced Error · 🔴 Double Fault) plus a tournament-run title to defend in the group chat: Champion if you’re clinical, down through Finalist, Semifinalist, Quarterfinalist, Bounced First Round… and Stuck in Qualies if it really wasn’t your day.

The Daily Leaderboard

This is the part I’m most excited about. Every day has its own top-50 leaderboard at app.brckt.io/map-game/leaderboard. Sign in (free) and your run is automatically on the board, and even a run you played before signing up gets synced the moment you create an account. Your geo points also count toward the global Brckt rankings, the same ones your bracket picks feed into.

And of course there are streaks. Come back tomorrow, keep it alive, and let the 🔥 in your share line do the talking.

That’s it. Just a map and your questionable sense of where tournaments actually are.
