matchpointR: Tidy Access to Women's Tennis Association (WTA) Data
Scrapes and tidies publicly available data from the
Women's Tennis Association website (<https://www.wtatennis.com>).
Provides helpers to retrieve player biographies, singles and doubles
career overviews, match histories, live rankings and aggregate
statistics. Dynamic pages are rendered through a headless 'Chrome'
session so 'JavaScript'-generated content is fully captured, and
all outputs are returned as tidy data frames suitable for downstream
analysis or visualisation.
