About Me
I'm Ron Satha. Intermountain Section, Colorado. I picked up a racket at age 10 and haven't put it down since. I've played competitive tennis on three continents, from Asia to England to the United States, and I've been in USTA leagues for over 10 years.
Eleven division titles in five years. Three Intermountain Sectionals. I play 3.5 Men's across 18+, 40+, and 55+ divisions, plus 7.0 and 6.5 Mixed. Two to three times a week, year-round.
Despite the results, understanding my rating has never been straightforward. Teammates, opponents, and captains who've watched me compete over the years often tell me I play above my level. Yet somewhere between what happens on the court and what gets calculated behind the scenes, there's a gap. Whether it's match weighting, dynamic calculations, or simply playing too many matches that don't influence year-end ratings, the process isn't transparent.
One of my closest tennis friends, who has competed in multiple states, pointed out that regional rating dynamics vary significantly. A Colorado 3.5 is not a California 3.5. That insight made me realize something important: many players are trying to understand a system that feels opaque.
That curiosity, and a bit of competitive frustration, is what led to building MyTennisRating.
The Problem
Tennis culture, competitive depth, and player density vary dramatically across USTA sections. Yet the algorithm does not account for that nuance. A win in Orange County is treated the same as a win in Denver, Seattle or Atlanta.
Across the country, thousands of players look at their year-end number and struggle to reconcile it with what they experienced on court. There's no explanation. No context. Just a rating that appears in December, detached from the matches that defined their season.
The Solution
MyTennisRating brings your ratings; NTRP, UTR, and WTN into one place, with tools designed to show you the "why," not just the number.
I've spent 30+ years working in enterprise finance and analytics as a SAP Consultant. I know what it means to take messy data and make it useful. I brought that same thinking to tennis ratings because someone needed to.
I'm not a tennis company that discovered league tennis as a market opportunity. I'm a league player who wanted to understand the system. This site is what came out of it.
That perspective matters.
