On top of his game after a superb fourth round win in new york. He looked sharp from the start against machac and in a blink of an eye draper powered through the first two sets in the type of form that suggests he has the potential to go even further. The 22 year old left hander won his first career title injune and with box office stars novak djokovic and carlos alcaraz already out of the open, his ruthless edge could serve him well. He took his place in the final eight afterjust one hour and 42 minutes. Draper went four games without dropping a set now at flushing meadows and is the first british man to reach th
