Yes. Aces allowed repeat from one half of the year to the next, and reading both sides predicted the last 12 weeks of aces with an average miss of 1.33 aces, against 1.36 from the server alone, over 558 player matches. Rates came only from matches before those weeks.
What the returner does to the top WTA 125 servers
Estimated aces over an average 10.5 service games: the server's rate, times the returner's index, times service games. The index is pulled toward 100 first, because only part of it repeats (correlation 0.46). A rough read for sizing an ace line, not a prediction.

Using ace matchups on a prop
Start with the server
Viktoria Hruncakova hits 0.65 aces per service game. That is a serve index of 395, where 100 is the WTA 125 average of 0.16.
Check who is returning
Viktoria Hruncakova has a return index of 201, the highest here. Maria Timofeeva has 8, the lowest. A line that ignores the returner ignores that gap.
Multiply it out
Over an average 10.5 service games, Viktoria Hruncakova works out to about 6.8 aces against an average returner, 10.0 against Viktoria Hruncakova and 3.9 against Maria Timofeeva. The returner's index is pulled toward 100 first, because only part of it repeats (correlation 0.46).
Adjust for the court
Then check the court speed index for this week's event. Aces per match change a lot from clay to grass. Today's line and the hit rate against it are in PickFinder.
How this is counted
Counts finished singles matches, Nov 2, 2025 to Nov 2, 2026. Aces per match is the player's aces divided by matches. Aces allowed are the opponent's aces in those matches. Per-game rates divide by service games played and by the opponent's service games, so a long match doesn't inflate them. Serve and return indexes compare those rates with the WTA 125 average, set to 100. Retired matches and walkovers are left out. Only WTA 125 matches count here, qualifying included. Main tour matches have their own view. A player needs 15+ matches to appear. Hard includes indoor hard. The correlations compare the first 26 weeks with the last 26 for players at this level with 80+ games in each, across all surfaces, and the prediction test sets rates only from matches before the last 12 weeks.

Are aces allowed a real skill or just luck?
A player's aces allowed in the first 26 weeks correlated 0.46 with the last 26 across 49 players, so it partly repeats. Aces hit correlated 0.63. Adding the returner moved the average miss on aces from 1.36 to 1.33 over the last 12 weeks.
Why use per-game rates as well as per-match?
Match length moves the count. An average WTA 125 match has 10.5 service games per player, and a player who wins quickly serves fewer. Per-game rates take that out.
