The 30-year-old rises 13 places to world No.159 after reaching an ATP Challenger semifinal in Japan last week. It is an encouraging finish to the year for Duckworth, who missed four months after undergoing hip surgery in January.

Edward Winter takes biggest mover honours this week, with the 18-year-old rising 271 spots to world No.663 after claiming his first ITF singles title at Traralgon.

Tristan Schoolkate, the runner-up to Winter in Traralgon, improves 30 places to a career-high world No.375.

Australian No.3 Chris O’Connell (up one spot to world No.78) is also at a new career-high this week.
