Jack Draper takes the opening set 6-4 against Michael Mmoh. 👀
Britain’s former tennis star Laura Robson has revealed that the current world number one Carlos Alcaraz helped Jack Draper in coping with injuries earlier this year.
The 21-year-old struggled with fitness concerns earlier this year and it was because of this reason, he ended up withdrawing from the Wimbledon 2023 as well.
Robson was quoted in a report recently where she revealed that Draper was helped by Alcaraz in getting over the injuries earlier this year.
“I was actually speaking to Jack Draper back in Miami after he’d had to pull out of the tournament there having injured himself in Indian Wells,” she said. “He was getting texts from Carlos saying, ‘Let me know if you need anything.
"Reach out if you want to have a chat about how you’re feeling, about having so many injuries on and off. And [Alcaraz] just got the situation.
"And Jack’s got nothing but good things to say about him. But I can’t think of anyone who has got a bad thing to say about him.”
Draper had an impressive outing in the ongoing US Open 2023 where he was eventually knocked out in the fourth round after losing to Russia’s Andrey Rublev with a score of 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.
