Launching in April: The ITF World Tennis Number

Tuesday, 21 March 2023

In April 2023 Tennis NZ will be introducing the ITF World Tennis Number (WTN) – a brand new, inclusive and modern rating system for all players.

The ITF together with the LTA, the USTA and other leading tennis nations have cooperated in the development of the new player rating system, which will be used by national associations around the world to help create a common language across tennis.

It is a single global tennis rating for all players, regardless of age or ability or gender - from the world’s elite to a player taking part in their first competition.
