Sudden ping issues

I host a small Minecraft server, gets a maximum of ~10 players online at once.

Starting today, some players started getting really weird ping spikes/issues. Most seem to be people further away from the server, but there was 1 person that lived relatively closed. Ping goes up to anywhere from 300 to the thousands.

The server should have 10Gbit connection & the Spark profiler report looks alright to me (though I'm not that experienced with it)

Is this just a routing issue, or is something else going on?

Here is some more information:
If you guys have any idea, or notice anything in the spark report I'll be happy to know!
It's weird that it started happening only today (server has been running for 2 weeks now), but if the server location is the issue I am down to move it too.

Out of the total unique players I'd guess roughly 75% USA, 10% Canada & 15% Europe (Majority UK. Also Netherlands & Norway), so if you have a better location suggestion I'll be glad to know
spark is a performance profiler for Minecraft clients, servers, and proxies.
