Jack Draper now embodies the hope of British tennis. Ranked 62nd in the world at the start of the year, he finally began to use his full potential this year, finishing the season ranked 15th in the world.

Draper, who has been under scrutiny for several years, finally managed to put his physical worries to one side and had a near-full year. After winning the title in Stuttgart and defeating Alcaraz at Queen's, the Briton went one better at the end of the season, reaching the semi-finals of the US Open and winning the title in Vienna.

As he celebrates his 23rd birthday this Sunday, the question arises: how far can the English No. 1 go?

I am surprised about relatively low attendance at Roland Garros which was the most popular slam 20+ years ago. I myself love it as well as really loving aus and us opens. I don't care about Wimbledon, sometimes maybe I can watch women's tennis. I hate Wimbledon's white dress code, I feel like I am watching junior tennis...I watched very few matches like Graf davenport final in 1999 the last time.....

It will really be befitting if he attains his 25th Grand Slam crown at the AO for he's truly the GOAT & this will stamp him & endorse his GOAT status without an iota of doubt

Almost as important to Djokovic as Slam #25--and requiring less luck--is beating Federer's total of 103 singles titles. He'll play 250s, and might even surpass Connors's 109.
