Well, he's the youngest player, but Rublev is 19.
1. Sascha Zverev - 20
2. Karen Khachanov - 21 (just lost in R1)
3. Hyeon Chung - 21
4. Andrey Rublev - 19
5. Jared Donaldson - 20
6. Daniil Medvedev - 21 (just lost to Denis)
7. Borna Coric - 20
8. Denis - 18
So according to my read of the rankings he's right on the bubble (though he is 6th in the Race to Milan), and is unlikely to move up any further in the next two weeks. On the plus side, he's probably not going to drop, either; the 9th place under 22 player is Tiafoe, whose first round opponent is... Roger Federer. Poor guy.
