Description
We present the effective weak angle measurements from the CDF and D0¬ experiments at Fermilab. We combine the most precise published results based on the forward-backward asymmetry of $p\bar{p}\rightarrow Z/\gamma^{*} \rightarrow e^+ e^-/\mu^+\mu^- + X$ events in the full Run II data set corresponding to up to $10 fb^{-1}$ of luminosity. We use the extracted values of $\sin^2\theta_{eff}^{lept}$ with an on-shell renormalization scheme in a standard model context to make indirect measurements of $\sin^2\theta_{W}$ and $m_{W}$. We also review direct measurements of $m_{W}$ at the Tevatron and discuss the relative precision of the direct and indirect measurements.
