THE DUPR RATING

With DUPR’s rating, all new players start as NR (Not Rated) and progress through a scale ranging from 2.000 to 8.000.

How DUPR is calculated

Your DUPR updates automatically with each result, and you’ll have separate singles and doubles ratings. Here are the four factors that go into calculating your DUPR:

Performance vs Expectation

Each match has an expected score based on player ratings.

Score more than expected = your rating will move up.

Score less than expected = your rating will move down.

Type of MATCH

A club or tournament match influences your rating more than a self-posted one.

MATCH RECENCY

Newer matches have a bigger impact on your rating than older ones.

MATCH VOLUME

Each match refines your rating, more match history leads to a more accurate and stable rating.

HOW DO THE DOUBLE RATINGS WORK?

DUPR uses individual player ratings to calculate a team rating—the average of each player’s DUPR. These team ratings are then used to determine the expected score of the match.

If your team scores more points than expected, your rating goes up. If your team scores fewer points than expected, your rating goes down.

Each player’s rating adjustment depends on the number of matches they’ve played and how recent those matches are.

Play regularly to keep your rating dynamic and reflective of your current skill!

Reliability Score

Your player profile shows two key numbers: your DUPR Rating (2.000–8.000) and your Reliability Score (1–100%).

Your DUPR Rating reflects your skill level based on match results.

Your Reliability Score shows your progress toward achieving a reliable rating —  to keep your rating up to date, play often and log matches consistently.

A higher Reliability Score means your DUPR is more likely to reflect your current skill level. A low reliability score means your DUPR is based on outdated or insufficient match data.
