i am wondering this as i have not been certified since i was in high school three and 1/2 years ago. i played a certified 3.5 yesterday and destroyed him with ease 6-1, 6-0 with my only lost game due to the fact that i double faulted three times trying out a new serve grip. (obviously it wasnt working out). Just curious because back in high school i was a 4.0, but lacked the consistency, strength and shotmaking ability i have now. Just curious as to what the real world difference should be between a 3.5 and 4.0. right now i would estimate myself as a 4.0 with 4.5 ability if i can put it all together on one of those magical days.
thanks guys, just wish i could find a good place to get certified here in LSU country. also do you have to be a certified usta member to get certified with an NTRP rating? i would like to be re-tested as i dont want to be misleading about my playing level.
