“Where Minaur overtook Rublev, Ovcharenko remained Ukraine’s number one”, — write: sport.ua
There is only one change in the top ten – Alex de Minaur overtook Andrei Rublev, who failed to defend last year’s trophy in Hong Kong.
Yannick Sinner kept the leadership in the rating, Alexander Zverev is second. The legendary Novak Djokovic, who played in Brisbane and was eliminated in the quarterfinals, remained seventh.
Brisbane champion Jiri Legechka moved up 4 positions and is now in 24th place. In the final, he defeated Reilly Opelka, who returned to the Tour (Opelka withdrew in the deciding match due to injury). The American climbed up to 122 steps and now occupies the 171st position.
Hong Kong winner Alexander Müller, who won his first trophy at ATP level, improved 11 places to 56th.

The progress of the Ukrainians is small. Oleksandr Ovcharenko continues to gradually improve his personal record. The first number of Ukrainian tennis is on the 308th place.
The positions at the start of the season were also improved by Eric Vanschelboim, Ilya Marchenko, Oleksiy Krutyh and Vyacheslav Belinsky.
But Vitaly Sachko lost as many as 26 places. Vadym Ursu also fell (-10 lines), as well as Yuriy Javakyan and Vladyslav Orlov.
Vanschelboim, Javakian and Orlov played last week in the ITF M25 tournament in Indore, India. Eric was eliminated in the first round, Vladyslav lost to Yuriy in the 2nd, and Yuriy himself ended his performances in the quarterfinals with a loss to Oliver Crawford.
