standings

Who's ahead today

Standings are the ranked positions of competitors in a league, tournament, or ongoing competition, based on their win-loss records or accumulated points: The team moved into first place in the standings.

Unlike one-time rankings, standings track cumulative performance over a season or series and are updated continuously as games are played.
