Rubin also played college tennis for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons in the 2014–15 season. Entering the year as the ITA No. 1 ranked college freshman, he finished the season as an All-American and the runner-up in the 2015 NCAA singles championship.
Despite only peaking at No. 125 in the world, Rubin became a notable player on the tour for his efforts to advocate for mental health awareness on the ATP Tour and greater pay for lower-ranked professional players.
In October 2022, Rubin announced he would retire from tennis and pursue a career as a professional pickleball player.[1] Following limited success on the pickleball tour, he returned to professional tennis in January 2024.[2]
