Evan Hoyt has broken into the world’s top 300 in doubles after a staggering rise of over 100 places.

The Llanelli right-hander’s reward for winning his first Challenger title in Australia is a move to 268 on the ATP doubles rankings.

That is a rise of 108 places as Hoyt continued his successful adventure Down Under.

Hoyt took the Apis Canberra Tennis International title with playing partner Tung-lin Wu, of Chinese Taipei with victory over home duo Thomas Fancutt and Jeremy Beale.

The win earned him $2,325 as well as hefty rankings points.
