British No1 Draper Reaches Queen's Quarterfinal After Comeback Win

British No. 1 Jack Draper is making a strong run at the Queen's Club Championships, starting with a dominant 6-3, 6-1 victory over American Jenson Brooksby. Draper, seeded second, showcased his resilience by coming back from a set down to defeat Australia's Alexei Popyrin 3-6, 6-2, 7-6 (7-5) in a tense round of 16 match, which included a thrilling third-set tiebreak. This win keeps alive the possibility of an all-British quarterfinal, where Draper could face Dan Evans. Draper has expressed gratitude for the support from his family, friends, and fans, emphasizing how special it is to compete at home, especially on the Andy Murray Arena, named after his mentor. With Wimbledon approaching, Draper is focused on maintaining his form and aiming for a top-four seeding there, which would ease his path in the Grand Slam. His performances so far underline his status as a leading British tennis figure with growing expectations to emulate Andy Murray's success at Queen's and beyond.
