- Author(s)
- Clarke, Stephen R.
- Abstract
- The advantages of a rating system for tennis and squash players, incorporating elite down to club players, are discussed. Some problems with rating systems currently in use are highlighted. The use of exponential smoothing as a rating method is proposed, and its possible application to tennis and squash demonstrated. Possible solutions to some minor difficulties are suggested.
