Depending on which tournaments you win or how far you make it. Grand Slams are worth the most, then Master tournaments, and then others.

If you are asking for USTA amateur tournaments....there used to be a guide to help score your level that would be certified for "Levels Tournament".....this way you would be playing people of equal level.....a beginner is around the 2.0 to 2.5.....3.5 to 4.0 was when it started getting serious.....4.5 and above became really serious players....check with a local pro and he will rate your game.....if you dominate to many tournaments at that level you will quickly be moved up.........professional is I believe on points and number of tournaments.......I think that although you were much better then I ....I might still out rank you due to the volume of tournaments that I might have played...who you beat also factors in.......GOOD LUCK ON THE TOUR!!

They review the results of the professional tennis tournaments from the past 12 months and award points for the tournament and the athlete's results in it.

The ATP (men's) and WTA (women's) decide on the points given to each player after he/she has played in the tournament. grand slam champions will get the most points. Tour tounament champions will get some points as well. then every player will be put in a league table of points to determine who is no. 1 for the calendar year.

It is decided by your performance in a tournament. Suppose u r the defending champion and u lose in the first round. Then u will lose a lot of points. U can similarly make the logic out.
