What Are the World Pickleball Rankings (WPR)?

The World Pickleball Rankings (WPR) are the Carvana PPA Tour's official professional ranking system, built to identify the best overall players on the planet. Rather than measuring performance in a single event or discipline, WPR combines each professional player's results across all three disciplines into one unified, global ranking.

How the Professional Rankings Work

WPR is built to capture the full picture of a professional player's competitive performance. Each player's ranking combines Carvana PPA Tour points earned across three disciplines — gender doubles (weighted at 50%), mixed doubles (35%), and singles (15%) — 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.

Note

For the full details on how points work, review the How Professional Pickleball Works guide at ppatour.com. You can also view the current rankings at worldpickleballrankings.com.
