How do LTA Rankings work?

Your LTA Ranking shows where you stand in your age group, nationally and in your county (Regulation 34).

Combined Rankings (11U, 12U, 14U, 16U, 18U and Open):

• Based on your six best singles results plus 25% of your six best doubles results over a rolling 12 months.
• Ties are split by the number of events used, then your highest single-event singles points, and so on.
• Juniors and adults appear on one combined ranking list. 11U, 12U and 14U players are subject to the LTA's "play up" rules.

Senior Rankings (age groups from 30+): your three best singles results over a rolling 12 months.

Earning points:

• You must win a match in a draw (qualifying, main or consolation) to get the points for the round you reach. No win = 1 point.
• A walkover doesn't count as a win: get a walkover then lose your next match and you get 1 point. An opponent retiring does count as a win.
• More points for going further, and higher grades are worth more.
• Only one set of points per event (your best, if you played qualifying and main draw).
• County Cups and National League also earn points. ITF Junior and Tennis Europe points count event by event.

Which grades count: grades 1 to 5 count for Ranking. Grades 6 and 7 count for your World Tennis Number only. Events with fewer than 5 entries (3 in doubles) give no Ranking points.

Rankings update weekly, using results processed at least five days before the run.
