Recently, the Tevatron CDF collaboration reported a highly precise
measurement of the W-boson mass with an uncertainty of 0.1 per-mille.
This measurement is in significant tension with Standard Model global
fits and earlier measurements. The W-boson mass is an input parameter in
the Standard Model, and its determination relies heavily on theory
predictions. However, these predictions have uncertainties that are
orders of magnitude larger, which raises the question in how far theory
uncertainties enter the measurement and translate into W-mass
uncertainties. In this talk, we discuss the challenges in accurate
theory predictions and their impact on the W-boson mass measurements. We
explore the significance of the tension between the CDF measurement and
previous results, and discuss potential avenues for improving theory
predictions in future measurements.
