Abstract: In tennis, discrepancies between rankings and head-to-head results arise because players select different tournaments for ranking. Existing methods using directed graphs cannot address discrepancies caused by varying tournament choices. This study proposes a ranking aggregation method that considers players' selected tournaments to reduce these inconsistencies. The method aggregates all chosen tournaments to form a collective ranking. Experimental results show a reduction in overall discrepancies, although some players saw an increase. This approach offers a partial solution to ranking inconsistencies caused by differing tournament selections in tennis.
