The 2010 winter leaderboards have been finalised and the 2011 summer leaderboards are now live on the LTA website. Leaderboards allow players who are competing on the Winter Tours to track their progress, just as the top players do on the ATP/WTA Tours. There are multiple leaderboards now in operation across the three tour levels – Winter National (Grade 2), Regional (Grade 3) and County (Grade 4 & 5) Tours.
There is one Leaderboard for players who have competed on the Winter National Tour. Players who have played in the Winter Regional Tour will find themselves on one of a possible seven leaderboards in the South East, East, South West, Midlands, North, Scotland and Wales, depending on where they are from.
