After years of injury struggles, Jason Kubler has been rewarded for his persistence, debuting in the ATP top 100 this week.

The Queeslander reached the final at the Vancouver Challenger and as a result rose 10 places to world No.99.

Kubler, who underwent multiple knee surgeries and competed almost exclusively on clay for several years, now plays a full schedule across all surfaces.

His victim in the quarterfinals, Alexei Popyrin, cracked the top 200 for the first time.

Jeremy Beale and Michael Look continued to make gains following sustained success on the ITF Futures circuit in Asia.

In the WTA rankings, Kaylah McPhee rose 14 places to No.388 – a career high – after beginning the year at No.648.
