Paris: Marseille winner Jo-Wilfried Tsonga returned to the world's top 10 when the ATP rankings were released yesterday. The 31-year-old Frenchman won his third title on the south coast of France on Sunday, beating compatriot Lucas Pouille 6-4, 6-4 in the final.

Pouille also gained two places to move up to 15th while Austria's Dominic Thiem dropped one spot to ninth despite winning the title in Rio de Janeiro.
