OK, silly question - when are the year-end ratings released? One would think that it would be at the end of the year, but some of the other discussions seem to indicate they're released before hand.
My section has released early start league ratings, but I didn't generate enough dynamic results to change my self-rate (four doubles matches, but only one singles match against another self-rated player). |

I believe that it is at the end of November. But, it may be up to the section that you live in.

The Kentucky USTA website
( http://www.kentuckytennis.com/usta/ntrp_ratings.htm ) posted this: "2006 NTRP Year-End Ratings are expected to be pubished the week of November 27. If we get them sooner, we will publish them as soon as received. " I remember last year it was in November. I believe once the National Championships are finished (Mixed Doubles is Nov. 16-19th), the rating calculations will be run. Though USTA always says mixed doubles ratings arent included in your rating unless you play mixed doubles exclusively. But maybe they want them all to come out at the same time. Its a National Rating from a National Database, so I can't see it being different from section to section. |

If you are looking them up on Tennislink it all comes out at the same time. I understand around November 21st. If you are looking them up from your local area site that doesn't link directly to tennislink (say from the NorCal database) it might be a week later.

Ok, I didn't know that not everyone used TennisLink.
How come NorCal doesn't use TennisLink? Did they just already have a website/database in place before TennisLink came along? How do they keep both databases synchronized? Last edited by Ace : 11-14-2006 at 10:36 AM. |

Go ahead and check you rating today. For my section, not all players have been updated yet, but some already show in the system with their new rating.

I'm in the Southern Section (AL) and most of the ratings have been updated for the End of the Year. They must have come out today.

My section (PNW) has not posted the ratings yet, but if you dig into TennisLink, the 2006 EOY ratings are in there. Try looking up your name here:

Wow, that's right. I got bumped to 5.0, not such great news, the 5.0 guys in Austin are mostly young former college players, and I'm a 44 y.o pusher....

So if the rating says that it ends with 12/31/2006 then that is your rating for the 2007 year?

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry. I'm a "benchmark" 3.0. I guess if you go to regionals that's what happens?
I was hoping to get rated at 3.5, so that I could get out of playing in the 3.0 leagues... not a whole lot of competition at that level anymore. I've been playing (and winning) as a 3.5 in USTA tournaments and leagues. I'm sure my club will expect me to play on the 3.0 men's team next spring (as well as the 3.5 "B" team). I guess my best bet is to tell them I want to play singles and go for the dynamic DQ. |

Were your 3.0 wins against people who won other matches, or did they lose all their matches? Just curious....I know its supposed to be a complex algorithm that takes into account your dynamic point spread and your performance against other benchmarks....but sometimes I see ratings that look like they were a cross between "how many fingers am I holding up" and "pick a number between 1 and 10".

Maybe the USTA is picking on Norcal and Texas because of the shenanigans at Nationals... |
