The worst thing that could have happened to him was winning this tournament before Wimbledon, Cash reflects on Draper's semifinal loss at Queen's

Jack Draper was stopped just short of the Queen's final this Saturday, defeated by a valiant Jiri Lehecka in three sets (6-4, 4-6, 7-5).

The world No. 6 will have to wait longer to follow in Andy Murray's footsteps as the last British player to win the event in 2016. According to Pat Cash, a BBC analyst, this semifinal setback may actually be good news for Draper ahead of Wimbledon:

"The worst thing that could have happened to him was winning this tournament. Everyone would have been talking about him and imagining him winning Wimbledon. There's less pressure on his shoulders now.
