As of Januart 2025, Sarah Carpenter, Lead Data Scientist at DUPR, is here to walk you through the latest updates:

‍

More Dynamic Ratings for Active Players

‍

Some active players have reached a point where their new matches aren’t impacting their ratings enough, so we’ve made an adjustment to the algorithm to allow for more movement with each match.

Following our initial update at the end of October 2024, this adjustment is another step toward ensuring your rating keeps up with your performance.

 Rally Scoring Differentiation

Rally scoring matches often have closer scores compared to traditional scoring. To reflect this, we’ve refined the win intensity formula to reward performance more fairly in rally scoring games.

‍

 A Boost to Your Ratings

With these algorithm improvements, all matches have been recalculated. You might notice a slight increase in your Doubles and/or Singles rating! While your match-by-match history stays the same, your overall rating now better reflects your play.
