Nick Kyrgios has double cause for celebration after securing his maiden ATP title in France.
Kyrgios's stylish 6-2 7-6 (7-3) victory over 2014 US Open champion Marin Cilic in the Marseilles Open final overnight also saw out his six-month suspended sentence for sledging Stan Wawrinka last year.
Australia's two-time grand slam quarter-finalist had been walking an emotional tightrope since August as the prospect of a 28-day ban shadowed his every move at ATP events.
Kyrgios can now breathe easier as he closes in on an all-important top-32 seeding for the French Open starting on May 22.
The 20-year-old is projected to climb to 32nd in the rankings after sweeping to the title in Marseilles without dropping a set in five matches.
