Hello,

from the doc, https://www.managames.com/tennis/doc/Ten ... ml#network :
"ELO-type score ; the better the player you beat, and the less games you lose, the most ELO points you will get ; this ELO-type score can raise when you lose against a more good player than you, if you won a lot of games (example: 6/7), and can lower when you win against a more weak player than you, if you lost a lot of games (example: 7/6)"
