No. 23 Jiri Lehecka (Career High), +9
The Czech has risen nine spots to a career-high No. 23 after holding off Jack Draper in a hard-fought championship match in Adelaide. Lehecka also defeated seeded players Nicolas Jarry and Sebastian Korda en route to the trophy. He is the first Czech ATP Tour title winner since Jiri Vesely in Pune in 2020.

No. 26 Sebastian Korda, +3
The 26-year-old American delivered another strong run in Adelaide, where he held championship point before falling to Novak Djokovic in the 2023 final. Korda was unable to match that run this year as Lehecka proved too strong in the semi-finals, but he has nonetheless risen three spots to World No. 26.

No. 49 Alejandro Tabilo, +33 (Career High)
The first qualifier to win an ATP Tour trophy since 2021, Tabilo has surged into the Top 50 of the Pepperstone ATP Rankings for the first time after a dream run at the ASB Classic in Auckland. The Chilean dropped just one set across his six matches, including two in qualifying.

No. 55 Jack Draper, +7
Draper went one better than his semi-final run last year in Adelaide, reaching his second ATP Tour championship match after downing Sebastian Baez, Miomir Kecmanovic, top seed Tommy Paul and Alexander Bublik. Looking in good shape after an injury-blighted 2023, Draper has risen seven spots to No. 55.

No. 58 Taro Daniel, +16 (Career High)
Daniel’s run to his first ATP Tour final for six years has propelled the Japanese to a career-high No. 58. Daniel defeated top seed Ben Shelton in the last four in Auckland, where Tabilo prevented him from adding another trophy to the one he clinched in 2018 in Istanbul.

Other Notable Top 100 Movers
No. 27 Alexander Bublik, +4
No. 34 Arthur Fils, +1 (Career High)
No. 50 Daniel Altmaier, +7
No. 63 Roberto Carballes Baena, +4
No. 68 Christopher O’Connell, +3
