Tonight we played a kid who just graduated from High School and was ranked in the top 64 in the state in doubles.
Some people commented on it because they think it's a fair play violation that he self rated 3.5, but Im not totally sure.
Here is the chart:

Does anyone know of any cases like this? It seems that if he had a national ranking (not sure about that yet) it would be a big deal, but it doesnt seem to cover state rankings or really low sectional rankings. (obviously if he's 64 in the state he's pretty low in the section)
He may be committed to play for a Division III college next year though however we may not be able to prove that, not sure how you can.
Anyway just curious, Im not going to go on a diatribe about it here, I just genuinely don't know if anything is amiss or not as far as his self rating (at least as far as player history which is all that matters).
