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.
