Frenchman Lucas Pouille won the title at the ATP100 Challenger in Mauthausen on Sunday with a smooth 6:3, 6:3 victory over the Slovakian number 6 seed Jozef Kovalik.

Pouille was unchallenged in the 76-minute match against Gerald Melzer's quarter-final conqueror and took the 100 ATP points and the winner's cheque for 16,550 euros.

The injured Pouille thus improves his ranking by 163rd position.
