Yuki back in top-100 after more than 2 years

Yuki Bhambri today broke back into the top-100 for the first time since February 2016 following his-title winning performance at the Taipei Challenger as he leapfrogged 22 places to a career-best rank of 83.

This is the best rank an Indian has achieved in ATP singles chart since Somdev Devvarman touched a career-high 62 in July 2011.

Yuki had first broken into top-100 late in 2015 but injuries did not allow him to climb further. However, the resilient 25-year-old has worked his way back to top-100 which, if maintained, will allow him direct entry into the Grand Slams and the ATP 1000 series Masters event.

"It's only the beginning, I have to move up a lot more and I am looking forward to the challenge," Yuki told PTI.

Asked if top-50 was a realistic target for him, Yuki said, "Not at the moment. Too far."
His Davis Cup teammate Ramkumar Ramanathan too rose to a career-best 116
