If you received a 4. How do I appeal my rating? The appeals process in automated. If you wish to try and appeal your rating, either up or down, you will go to TennisLink. Choose to either appeal up or down. Your appeal will either be approved or denied, depending on whether your rating meets the appeals criteria. If I'm over 60 can I get and auto appeal if I get moved up at year end rating even if I went to Sectionals or Nationals? I've been in level 3 years without appeal. If you are playing a level above rated 2.
Also, if you lose , I'm thinking that does NOT affect my 2. Every match result can affect your rating, the exception being some , matches in certain cases. What if you are an inconsistent player, rated 4. Would you earn 3 strikes because of the 3 great wins and therefore be disqualified from 4.
It depends on the section. Most sections do include Tri-Level, but Southern for example doesn't include anything other than the "advancing" leagues, e. If two self-rated players play against each other, and they have each played at least one prior match against computer-rated players, would said match count toward their dNTRP? Or would it be withheld due to insufficient data?
Can you explain how strikes work in a little more detail? I have two friends that are rated 4. Does a strike happen when their dynamic rating goes above 4. The strike thresholds are higher than just being the top of the range. The USTA does not publish what they are, but it is generally believed that the threshold for a 4.
Hi, Kevin, I stumbled upon your website and find it to be very interesting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. My question is: Is it true that if you want to move up a rating quickly, you should play and win singles matches than doubles?
I heard winning a few singles matches can bring your ratings up quickly. Or is that a myth? It is a bit of a myth, you can increase your rating quickly in either singles or doubles, but simply because it is common for stronger players to play singles, it is sometimes true that winning easily in singles will improve your rating more quickly.
Can you explain how will playing a self-rated or rated player who never plays more than 3 matches will effect someone's rating? For instance, If someone gal who plays mostly mixed doubles and is rated a 3. She has very mixed results on her matches, but her level when she plays well is easily 4. She also has played a lot of 4. How could this effect someone?
The player would likely have an "M" rating from their Mixed play, but never get a "C" rating for their Adult play if they always only play no more than 2 matches per year. So I believe for the purposes of the Adult matches they are always a self-rate and their opponents would never have a rating calculated from playing them. In they actually DID play a lot of doubles. In , only 2 doubles matches, and 3 mixed 8.
In so far, 1 doubles match. So, I'm correcting myselfshe did have quite a few doubles matches in How often can you appeal your rating? I have heard you can appeal after every match played I've always thought you could only appeal your year-end rating on-line. ESRs can be appealed, but usually are done manually or at least with a special team number and not the "Appeal your rating" link. But I've heard of people trying to appeal after every match, but never heard it being successful.
Do you happen to know the cut off date for the end of year rankings? Do you know which areas include tournaments in their year end ratings and which don't? For example, does NorCal include tournaments in their ratings? Or just league matches? HI Kevin, I noticed in an earlier response you mentioned that age being over 55 can affect your upward rating movement. While I am an upper 2. However, I am very interested in knowing whether my age will play a part in my ability to move up.
We are a very small town and there would not be enough players for an older league. Plus, I really love playing the younger players and can give them a run for their money, even at the 3. How concerned should I be that my age will be a future obstacle for upward movement?
The rules for seniors are regarding being able to auto-appeal down in some cases, or not being bumped up at all in others. Kevin, Can you explain more about how someone becomes a benchmark player instead of moving up.
There was a woman in our league who was a dynamo on the court and won all of the local tournaments in both singles and doubles, often beating her doubles partner in singles. At the end of the season, her partner moved up but she did not. This actually happened to her two seasons - it took her an extra year to move up in spite of her winnings. Someone said that she was probably a benchmark player. That designations seems to be the kiss of death!
If you bake a cake with four ingredients and follow a set plan of instructions, it will probably taste the same, whether you bake it once a week or 5 times a week. How many ingredients does your tennis game have? Developing angle volleys, slice serves, lobs or different spins can give you ingredients to spice up your game and be more effective against more players. Being able to play at a lower level will provide a player the opportunity to practice new shots and tactics and develop a more complete game.
