Video - Draper's sublime forehand winner against Vukic

What a battle! Jack Draper made it through to the last 16 of the Australian Open, defeating Aleksandar Vukic in a thrilling 4-hour match (6-4, 2-6, 5-7, 7-6, 7-6).

In a match that lived up to its promise, both men delivered some fine points.

In the first set, when trailing by a break, the Briton hit a forehand winner around the net, leaving Vukic on the spot.

A decisive moment in the first set, as Draper broke back before completely reversing the trend and winning the first set. A first set that was crucial for the rest of the match.

In the last 16, Draper will meet Alcaraz in a fascinating encounter. As a reminder, the Spaniard leads his future opponent two wins to one, but it was Alcaraz who won their last meeting, at the Queen's tournament in 2024.

GBR Draper, Jack  [15]
