First career Grand Slam quarter for Draper!
It's a milestone in the life of a tennis player.
Reaching a new milestone at a major tournament is always an important moment. And that's exactly what Jack Draper has just done.
Up against the astonishing Tomas Machac, the Briton made no bones about it, winning in just 1 hour 43 minutes and three short sets (6-3, 6-1, 6-2).
He played a complete match and completely dashed the hopes of his opponent, who had not yet lost a set.
Strong on serve (11 aces, 0 breaks conceded), with an impact on the return (6 successful breaks) and efficient in the exchange (37 winners, 26 unforced errors), Draper will now attempt to prolong the dream by securing his ticket to the semi-finals.
To do so, he will have to beat the winner of the match between De Minaur and Thompson.
