23-year-old Yuki Bhambri is now ranked 99, the first Indian to get into the top 100 since 2010

Yuki Bhambri cracked the coveted top-100 bracket by achieving a career-best rank of 99, a reflection of his consistent progress in the last few months. In his last three ATP Challenger tournaments, the 23-year-old has won one (the Shanghai Challenger), was a runner-up in Taiwan and ended as a semifinalist at the $125,000 Tashkent event last week.

Yuki is the first Indian player since 2010 to enter the top-100 and only the third in a decade-andhalf to be in the list. His next as signment is the Pune Challenger, starting October 26 after he pulled out of the Bengaluru event due to a minor injury.

Saketh Myneni is another player who has made steady progress on the tour. He won the Vietnam Open this week and is now ranked 166. Somdev Devvarman, though, has dropped further to 181. India now have three singles players in the top 200--a rare feat for country's tennis players.

Rohan Bopanna is the country's highest ranked player in doubles at number 15, followed by Leander Paes (36) and Purav Raja (96). In the WTA rankings, Sania Mirza continues to be one half of the world number one doubles pairing.
