Draper laughs off comparisons to one of the greatest-ever left handers, but Mats Wilander says 'he has the same forehand as Nadal - but he hits it HARDER!'

- FROM NEIL MCLEMAN

WHEN Jack Draper became only the second left-hander this century to enter the world's top five last month, he tried to laugh off the parallels with his idol Rafa Nadal.

"I haven't won 14 Roland Garros titles just yet!" he said.

But after reaching the fourth round of the Spaniard's favourite event for the first time, the comparison is getting serious. The world No.5's forehand. has been recorded at 82mph and with 3,600 revs per minute in this tournament more than the 22-time Grand Slam winner here.

And seven-time Grand Slam winner Mats Wilander said: "Jack Draper has the same forehand topspin as Rafael Nadal except he hits it harder. I love the intensity that he puts into every point, he is a potential Grand Slam winner."
