The Delray Beach Open has awarded its third and final main draw wild card to American teenager Noah Rubin, who will be playing in his third career ATP event.

Rubin, from Long Island, NY, joins fellow American teen Taylor Fritz and former world No. 5 Juan Martin del Potro in securing the DBO’s three wild cards. Rubin played in the Delray Beach qualifying tournament a year ago, reaching the second round.

The 19-year-old Rubin scored his biggest career win in January, beating world No. 18 Benoit Paire in the first round of the Australian Open.  He also picked up a number of ATP points with a 2015 Challenger win in Charlottesville, Va. shortly after turning pro.

Rubin played a single season at Wake Forest, becoming the first player in ACC history to be named both Freshman of the Year and Player of the Year in the same year.  He was also named All-America after reaching the singles finals at the 2015 NCAA Championships.

Rubin won the 2014 Wimbledon juniors and the USTA Boys 18s National Championships in both singles and doubles during his junior career, and was ranked as high as No. 6 in the world.
