No idea MT, but Paul's a college student in the States so I assume he's going back to start his second year quite soon and more focused on that than the ranking itself.

(NB maybe a mod could put this in the player threads section)

Good to have a thread for Paul - he's currently our highest ranked 1999-born player and had a brilliant summer.

Given you're opened up a specific thread for him, I've copied and pasted the info about him from the July Lithuania thread, just for completeness:

COPY

"Part of what has always attracted me to Paul Jubb is his story.

He lost his parents when a small child, was brought up by his grandma on a council estate in Hull, has never had the means of other players, has had to rely on receiving heavily subsidised lessons, (the Yorkshire LTA were very helpful, I believe), the help of other parents for travel, and - especially - very dedicated and caring coaches.

With a background like that, he's an amazingly humble and hard-working lad - and plays a super game of tennis.

In anyone deserves to do well, he does.


PS Most of this is all on a public website so I don't think it's giving out private information."


 Just re-posting from 2018, as a reminder of Paul's achievements, as he takes the ITF 15k title in Egypt today

Appears as though he is MDO, I don't see him listed in qualifying.

Hopefully this is of interest.....an overview of how Paul has put together his climb up the ranking over the last 12 months which has resulted in him claiming the GB year end #10.

So Paul's year ending tally of 135 points means he wins the "not a fan of travelling award", with tournaments from just 4 countries (UK, Egypt, USA and Portugal) contributing to this total.  He also appears to be definitely not a fan of the dirt with less than 1% of his points coming from tournaments on that surface. 

He had his greatest success on the ITF tour, with 5 titles contributing almost 60% of his points tally.  This was greatest contribution of points from tournament wins for any of the GB's Top 10 players. His two wins in Sintra in September and one in the US in November helped to make the tail end of 2021 a successful one for him. 

90% of Paul's points came from ITF events. In comparison, for Aidan (GB YEnd#9), ITF events make up 57% of his points.

Context of not travelling - he spent a significant portion of the UK late spring/summer injured.
