Pakistan’s Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi reached his career best ranking of 12 when the updated ATP doubles rankings were announced on Monday.

Qureshi, who recently returned home after participating in ATP Masters series tournaments in the United States, moved up four places from his last position (16).

The grand-slam finalist and his doubles partner Rohan Bopanna of India, meanwhile, are now ranked number eight – a two-step hop from their previous position of 10.

The duo, also known as the IndoPak Express, finished as semi-finalists at the Indian Wells ATP Masters and as quarter-finalists at the Miami Masters.

Bopanna’s ranking remained unchanged at 15.
