• red open envelope means you lost - actual name is revealed.
• Correct ATP Tennis Player is revealed after 7th try (or if you match or lose early).

• Highest Rank - Highest rank level gained (Top 1, Top 10 or Top 100)
• Country - Player Country name
• Continent - Continent where player country is located

• Red guessed name is alphabetically higher than the actual name. Guess a alphabetically lower name.
• Black letters reveal no clues. You can ignore them.

• Correct ATP Tennis Player is revealed after 7th try (or if you lose or match or give up early).

• Type first 3 letters (4 letters in Pro mode) of the guessed name. Don't type more than 6 letters if you wish to use autocomplete.
• Wait for the dropdown list of matching names to appear. In couple seconds, you will see a dropdown list of matching names.
• Choose a matching name from the displayed list.
• If there are no matching names, nothing would show up. In that case, please try a different spelling or another name.

Here is a autocomplete sample.

• Share the face-off link with others so that they can join the game. Link expires in 15 minutes.
• Everyone who plays using the shared face-off link gets the same hidden name to guess. See who can guess it better.
• Your time starts when you make the first guess. You don't have to start at the same time as others.
• Each player can play the face-off game in the difficulty mode they choose. For example one player can play it in Practice mode while the other can play Pro mode.
• Compare your score with others to see who won the face-off.
