Jack Draper has a first ever ATP win to begin the grass court swing dumping out Jannik Sinner to begin Day One action at the Cinch Championships (Queens Club) on Monday afternoon.
Draper who was in as a wildcard claimed the battle of the 19-year-olds against the World No.23 who has been in supreme form this year but will not take any further part in London this week.
The Italian seemingly had the opening set on a plate against Draper nearly going 5-0 up but the Brit fought back on home soil and took the opening tiebreak.
From there, his confidence wasn't diminished despite going a break down in the second and he took Sinner to yet another tie-break which he claimed in what is the biggest win of the young Brit's career.
