Men’s singles

Alexei Popyrin and Aleksandar Vukic skyrocket to new career-highs in the latest ATP Tour men’s singles rankings.

Popyrin improves 33 places to world No.57 following his title-winning run in Croatia. This overtakes the 23-year-old’s previous career-high of world No.59, achieved in November 2021.

Vukic climbs 20 spots to world No.62 after reaching his first ATP final in America last week. It continues a breakout season for the 27-year-old, who was ranked outside the world’s top 200 in February.

Rinky Hijikata is also at a new career-high, improving four places to world No.110, while a resurgent Luke Saville has returned to the world’s top 350 for the first time since August 2020. The 29-year-old Saville, who has just won back-to-back ITF titles, rises 27 places to world No.339.
