Jack Draper US Open

Jack Draper has advanced to the fourth round of the US Open for the second consecutive year, defeating Botic van de Zandschulp 6-3, 6-4, 6-2. This victory comes after Van de Zandschulp's surprising win over Carlos Alcaraz, showcasing Draper's improved performance and confidence on the court. Draper, now ranked No. 25, credits his success to a return to his previous fitness trainer and a more mindful training approach. He has yet to drop a set in the tournament and will face Czech player Tomas Machac next, aiming for his first Grand Slam quarter-final. Draper expressed gratitude for the support from fans and reflected on overcoming previous injury struggles that hampered his performance last year. With notable players like Alcaraz and Djokovic eliminated, Draper sees a significant opportunity to make a deep run in the tournament.
