Rather than measuring performance in a single event or discipline, WPR combines each professional player\u0027s results across all three disciplines into one unified, global ranking.\u003C/p\u003E\u003Ch2 id=\u0022how_the_professional_rankings_work\u0022\u003EHow the Professional Rankings Work\u003C/h2\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWPR is built to capture the full picture of a professional player\u0027s competitive performance. Each player\u0027s ranking combines Carvana PPA Tour points earned across three disciplines \u2014 gender doubles (weighted at 50%), mixed doubles (35%), and singles (15%) \u2014 over a rolling 52-week window. Rankings are shown separately for men and women. Every PPA event worldwide feeds the same point system, so no matter where a player competes on the PPA Tour, it counts toward the same global ranking.\u003C/p\u003E\u003Ccite class=\u0022recommended\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022title\u0022\u003ENote\u003C/span\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFor the full details on how points work, review the \u003Ca href=\u0022https://www.ppatour.com/about/how-it-works/\u0022\u003EHow Professional Pickleball Works\u003C/a\u003E guide at ppatour.com.
