This article is from the Table Tennis (Ping Pong) FAQ, by ttennis@bu.edu with numerous contributions by others.
Here are the handicap charts calculated from the above data. First are the
charts for a 51 point game. Second are the charts for a 21 point game. Each
table contains three handicap charts labeled "Pre", "Adjusted", and "Post"
corresponding to the three sets of ratings that we have. Since we had so
little data for rating differences of more than 300 points, I wouldn't be
surprised if the charts are not good for large handicaps. I've used these
handicap charts in tournaments and I recommend you use the Post chart.
