Felix Auger-Aliassime has made a successful return from injury, winning the title in Montpellier shortly after his Australian Open withdrawal.
Auger-Aliassime retired with cramps in the first round of the Australian Open, having been trailing Nuno Borges in Melbourne.
But Auger-Aliassime has now returned with a bang, going all the way in Montpellier to successfully defend his title.
The Canadian is now a nine-time champion on the ATP Tour, with his latest success earning him a new world ranking, at the expense of Alex de Minaur.

Elsewhere in the top 20, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and Andrey Rublev have swapped places in 14th and 15th respectively.
