The players who have risen the furthest up the rankings.

Top ten from within the Top 64 or else they would have had to include Cao Yupeng. Interesting that Zhou Yuelong is lower now than he was a year ago, despite a good start to the season and not having much to defend.

He won the Chinese national championship a couple of weeks ago, so hopefully he'll be back to top form when the new season gets underway.

Didn't something similar happen to Liang Wenbo during his big slump around 2010/11?
