Default What NTRP level would you say each of these two players are?

Just wondering how the TT NTRP radar is calibrated these days....

I think the level correlates with the number of consecutive shots they could make in a point. So in this case, 3.0.

Only saw a few points but probably 5.0. Could be higher. Both guys are very fit.

The average number of shots per point in the ATP is less than 3.

Probably about 5.0 or 5.5 in the US. ITN ratings don't transfer very well in real life.

No higher than 4.5 (US). Way too many wildly unforced errors to be any higher than that. They lack the patience and discipline to develop the point and the skill to recognize a true opportunity ball. The kids that I watched last weekend at a USTA nationals tourney could easily beat them. The strokes certainly look impressive on the surface (oh, look how hard they hit!) but they're just not consistent enough to be higher than 4.5 (there goes another easy shot long or into the net).

Darn. I guess Sampras is a 2.0.

I am surprise you guys rate them at 5.0. I am no expert but would guess they are 4.0-4.5.

My guess would be Higher end 4.5. Serve and a few wild errors make me think 5.0 would be a stretch. Very entertaining nonetheless.

They are among better 4.5 players in my opinion. If they improve their consistency, they would do ok in a 5.0 league.

This doesn't look like the 5.0 tennis in my area but they are really good. They are really attacking each-others serves I like it. They could self rate at 4.0 get bumped up at the end of one season and be competitive at 4.5
