Stat of the Day: Andrey Rublev records 300th tour-level win of career at Australian Open


Andrey Rublev slugged his way to two milestones on Rod Laver Arena on Sunday night, battling past Alex de Minaur in the fourth round of the Australian Open, 6-4, 6-7 (5), 6-7 (4), 6-3, 6-0, to not only reach the 10th Grand Slam quarterfinal of his career, but to record the 300th tour-level win of his career as well.

The world No. 5 is the eighth man born in 1990 or later to reach 300 career wins, and just the fourth man born in 1995 or later to do it after Alexander Zverev, Daniil Medvedev and Stefanos Tsitsipas.

MEN BORN IN 1990 OR LATER WITH 300+ CAREER WINS (tour-level):
420: Grigor Dimitrov [born in 1991]
401: Alexander Zverev [born in 1997]
377: Milos Raonic [born in 1990]
346: Dominic Thiem [born in 1993]
336: Daniil Medvedev [born in 1996]
329: David Goffin [born in 1990]
304: Stefanos Tsitsipas [born in 1998]
300: Andrey Rublev [born in 1997]

Kei Nishikori, who has 433 career wins, just missed out on being on the above list—he was born on December 29th, 1989.
