You are now ready to answer this question!

Below you see a pre-calculated distance matrix between four players on a soccer field. You can clearly see that players 1 & 4 are the closest to one another with a Euclidean distance value of 10. This distance matrix is available for your exploration as the variable dist_players

1 2 3
2 11.7
3 16.8 18.0
4 10.0 20.6 15.8


If 1 and 4 are the closest players among the four, which player is closest to players 1 and 4?
