Career

Christopher Rungkat spent his junior career in Europe by playing on the European Junior Circuit and was based in Tennis Val (Valencia, Spain). He is the second Asian male player to win a junior French Open doubles title, after Kei Nishikori. He was the winner of the Men's Singles title at the 2017 Southeast Asian Games in Kuala Lumpur. A year later at the 2018 Asian Games in his home country, Rungkat was partnered up with Aldila Sutjiadi for the Mixed Doubles category in just two weeks, and was not targeted to grab any medals. However, they surprised with getting the gold medal after producing a couple of upsets and eventually beating Thai pair Sonchat Ratiwatana and Luksika Kumkhum in the end to get the gold medal.[4] He started 2019 with a title in Da Nang Vietnam Airlines Tennis Open with partner Cheng-Peng Hsieh beating former world number 1 in the doubles semi-final Leander Paes and partner Divij Sharan.[5] In February, Rungkat reached his first doubles final ATP Tour 250 at The Sofia Open with partner Cheng-Peng Hsieh.[6]

Rungkat made an appearance in the Davis Cup in 2007 and played in 22 ties.[7]
