It seems the men in my area all had a substantial drop in their UTR. Only 2 3.5 players that weren't bumped to 4.0 have a 5.XX rating. The rest all have 4.XX and 3.XX. This seems to be considerably different then when I looked a few days ago. Anyone else notice this, or is this just my own...

I signed my kid for a USTA tournament not knowing what to expect. They seem to take your entire weekend. He plays a match on Friday. Then he has to wait a few hours for the next round. Then come back the next day for another round or two. Then come back again on Sunday for the semi finals /...

Long-time lurker (ever since 8th grade when I began thinking about racquets and a coaching change) but first time poster. For reference, I am an All-State tennis player who is turning down DII/DIII/JUCO offers for academic reasons and will likely be playing DI Club Tennis next year. I want a new...

If anyone has ever played a sports video game, where you slowly over time bump up your players Overall rating, UTR feels the same way. UTR gives me a visible interpretation of improvement, and makes me feel like I’m leveling myself up just like in a video game. Just some random thoughts I had lol.

Could a utr 5 go to a utr 10.5-11 in 4 years?

My son had accumulated a good bit of USTA ranking points and also his UTR was heading up before the pandemic and they froze things. Does anyone know what the process will be when the USTA unfreezes the rankings. The Junior rankings are the top 6 years over a sliding 1 year scale so let's...

Hi, Background: in golf, the handicap system allows players of different abilities (handicaps) to compete on a level playing field (course). For example, if my handicap is 5 and yours is 25 then I give you 20 stokes. Therefore, if I beat you by 20 strokes then we have tied. Question: is it...

I've been aware of UTR for a long time in the junior/college arena. Mostly the incentives there are for juniors to maximize their UTR so that they will get noticed by college coaches. There are all kinds of interesting things I've observed for kids doing to maximize their UTR. Some high level...

UTR is a flawed system, and myutr is a poorly-designed website. This is why. Hear me out: High school matches cannot be recorded unless the ENTIRE TEAM is registered with UTR. This effectively means no high school matches ever get recorded. Casual club matches cannot get recorded either...
