| Ricky might slip from top 5, but hard to keep the 2x champ from falling too far. | |||||

| While Niklas has a DNF last place impacting his 2023 averages, AF is not counting it against him in rankings, similar to Ricky. At least for now. | |||||
| Mason and Proctor are in a tie in rankings as is Aderhold and Hammes. It'll be interesting to see who wins those battles at Jonesboro. | |||||

| 27 | Aaron Gossage | 18 | 1030 | 33.0 | Jonesboro |
| Silas rose up just a few spots more than the amount Drew dropped, and they are meeting in the rankings. | |||||
| Isaac may deserve a bit higher after winning first major and his last 3 Elite + Major average is 6th best in the division. Yet his season numbers make AF hesitate before bumping him too high. Plus Jonesboro is new event for him. | |||||
| Alden Harris and Evan Smith were on the outside looking into the rankings last week, and now that status belongs to Cole, Joona, and Bell. | |||||
