PDGA Player Ratings indicate how well players have been playing on their PDGA event courses. And this ratings system works all over the world. The new PDGA World Player Ranking System blends PDGA Player Ratings with finish positions in a few major events where head-to-head competition plays more of a role in the rankings. To date, just a few events bring together the top men and women from around the world in direct competition. As more sponsorship money is generated and more countries produce players at a high level, there will be more events where top players from many countries compete. As this happens, the World Rankings will shift to using more and more event results in the calculations rather than relying primarily on player ratings.
The current World Ranking calculation includes men from North America whose rating is over 999 based on at least 12 rounds in B-tier and higher events in the previous 12 months. It also includes Non-North American men with ratings over 999 based on at least 8 rounds in sanctioned events. The top ranked man in each PDGA affiliated country regardless of rating is included only in the yearend ranking. The same process is used for women but their rating minimum is 900. Players must be current PDGA members to be included.
