Tennis Draper admits he hadn't 'felt good all week' after defeat

The British number one smashed his racket, damaging a digital advertising hoarding and grazing his knee, as his semi-final against Jiri Lehecka slipped away from him on Saturday.

Draper explained he was low on energy due to the illness and was getting angry in a bid to gee himself up.

But when world number 30 Lehecka fizzed a backhand past him to break for 6-5 in the deciding set, the 23-year-old exploded with rage.

“It was bit of everything, really,” he said. “The way I was sort of playing at times. Obviously the fact that I’ve worked so hard to get myself in that position. I really tried to get myself up, get the energy going.

“When you see that ball go past you on that point, you know, it’s very tough to see yourself breaking in the next game, although I tried my best on that.

“I don’t condone that behaviour, but at the same time, that’s kind of where I was at today.
