JACK DRAPER defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime in straight sets to clinch a place in the third round of the US Open.

Draper faces World No.31 Karen Khachanov in the third round on Friday. “Obviously it means a lot to me, but all the people around me that support me on a daily basis, that go through the highs and lows with me. Draper defeated Emil Ruusuvuori in the first round before his stunning victory over Auger-Aliassime.

British No 4 says his parents' tennis connections made his early rivals bitter and praises Emma Raducanu for giving players confidence.

“Anyone I play against, I feel like I can win,” he said. There’s always going to be people thinking that I am getting better treatment or whatever. He collapsed in 2021 with a heat-related illness in the Miami Open, forcing him to pull out of his ATP Tour debut, and was also brought down by a bout of coronavirus during the same year. “I would often go to junior tournaments and have 15 boys on the balcony that I had never seen before willing me on to lose, making noises before I serve, all that sort of stuff. “There was quite a lot of jealousy when I was younger,” he said. His father, Roger, was the former chief executive of Sport England and the Lawn Tennis Association, while his mother Nicky is a former junior British tennis champion.
