What do you'll think about the Universal Tennis Rating (UTR)? Tennis Channel, Federer/Djokovic and many others endorse it. Here's a definition of the UTR:
** Universal Tennis Rating (UTR) is a reliable, accurate index that rates players' skill in tennis. UTR rates all players—men, women, and children—on a single 16-point scale (with two decimal places, e.g., 11.29) that works for players globally regardless of their skill level, from beginners to top professional competitors.
UTR's algorithm calculates ratings from the last 30 eligible matches played within the preceding 12 months. The main data points are the percentage of games won (not simply the won/lost result), and the opponent’s rating. Each match played generates a rating; a player’s UTR is a weighted average of all eligible matches. **

*Note: There were several players tied with the same UTR. In those cases with ties I listed the player with the higher trending 3 month UTR first.
