LORE-Tennis-NewsBot

The news bot for LORE Tennis. It reads publisher RSS feeds and news APIs so player pages can show headlines that link to the original article, credited to the publisher.

What it fetches

• Each configured feed, about once an hour.
• For some sources, an article page once, to check which players it names. The text is used in memory for that check only. It is never stored or shown.
• Pages behind a login or paywall are not fetched.
