Jack Draper was given a real scare as he battled back to beat Mariano Navone in five sets at the Australian Open. The British number made 88 unforced errors in an untidy performance, perhaps to be expected with this being his first match since October after he missed a training block and then the United Cup earlier this month due to a hip injury.

Jack Draper has pulled out of the Australian Open after losing the first two sets to Carlos Alcaraz in their fourth-round match on Sunday. The British No.1 had suffered a hip injury before Christmas to prevent playing any warm-up events. And the No.15 seed reached the fourth round here by winning three five-set epic matches.

Carlos Alcaraz showed his class as he wrote a 10-word message on the camera lens after Jack Draper retired from their match. The British No. 1 received a medical timeout at the end of the first set and, after going two sets down, called it quits.

It was the second time Draper had retired injured against Alcaraz, having cut short their 2023 match at Indian Wells due to an abdominal strain.
