JACK DRAPER ON ADAPTING TO LIFE ON TOUR – “I think it’s just exposure to this level really. Playing Futures and Challengers, the actual tennis level is pretty good but it’s just they are probably not there every single point, whereas at this level if you’re not there every point you lose. So, it has just been about training the mind to be there every single point and hopefully I’m getting there.”

Draper Downs Fognini In Winston-Salem

Spoiler:

In his first match since his breakthrough quarter-final run at the Montreal ATP Masters 1000, #NextGenATP Briton Jack Draper claimed another statement win on Tuesday at the Winston-Salem Open.

The 20-year-old outlasted Fabio Fognini 6-2, 4-6, 6-1 to set up a third-round showdown with Dominic Thiem, who moved past top seed Grigor Dimitrov after the Bulgarian's second-set retirement.

Draper, seeded 13th, ran out to a 5-0 lead in the final set, but had to save seven break points in doing so. After he escaped 15/40 in the set's opening game, he erased five break chances in a five-deuce fifth game, the longest of the two-hour match. The Briton saved 10 of 13 break points in the contest while breaking on six of 10 chances on return.

Draper Wears Down Thiem To Reach Winston-Salem QFs

Spoiler:

Jack Draper has lived up to his billing as the 13th seed in his Winston-Salem Open debut by beating two big-name players who have spent a large chunk of their ATP Tour careers playing with a number next to their name on the draw sheet.

After a three-set victory against Fabio Fognini, the #NextGenATP Briton overwhelmed Dominic Thiem in a 6-1, 6-4 Wednesday win to reach the quarter-finals at the ATP 250. It's Draper's third quarter-final of the season after runs to the Eastbourne semis and the Montreal quarter-finals.

"I was really good behind serve, really solid," he said after not facing a break point in the 80-minute match. "In the second set it was tough because he was coming up with some amazing shots. It was a real honour to be on court with Dominic. He's an amazing player."

In his first ATP Head2Head meeting with Thiem, the 20-year-old raced to a 5-0 lead in the opening set and created 10 break chances in the match. The Austrian picked up his aggression in the second set, approaching the net 12 times, but also hit six double faults as he took more risk on his delivery.

"I started confidently, I started well," said Draper. "I was hitting through the ball, felt good in the conditions. It was a difficult start because I felt like everyone was supporting Dominic and I knew that I needed to come out confidently and sharp, and that's what I did."


Thiem saved two break points at 2-2 in the second set and another at 3-3 but Draper's pressure told in the ninth game of the set. Despite two roped returns from Thiem to create a 15/30 opening, the Briton held his nerve to close out the match without further drama.

Finishing a clean performance with 10 winners and four unforced errors, Draper next faces Switzerland's Marc-Andrea Huesler. The World No. 102 upset defending champion and 11th seed Ilya Ivashka 7-6(2), 3-6, 7-6(3) in match that lasted nearly two-and-a-half hours before wrapping up just before 1 a.m. local time on the stadium court.
