British No 1 Jack Draper defeats world No 2 Carlos Alcaraz at Queen's

Jack Draper achieved a significant victory against world No 2 Carlos Alcaraz at Queen’s, marking the biggest win of his career. Draper's win against Alcaraz was his first against a player ranked in the world's top four, making him the first Brit to beat a top-two-ranked player on grass since Andy Murray's victory over Novak Djokovic in the 2013 Wimbledon final. Alcaraz, who was on a 13-match unbeaten run on grass, had won Wimbledon the previous year. Draper's win extended his own unbeaten streak to seven matches on grass after winning his first career title in Stuttgart. The victory showcased Draper's talent and determination, with a notable change in his approach to improve his performance against top-tier opponents. Draper's offensive mindset was evident in crucial moments of the match, leading to his success. This win was seen as a statement victory, reminiscent of Murray's emergence at Queen’s 19 years ago. Draper's performance highlighted his potential and determination to compete at the highest level of the sport.
