DRAPER RIGHT AT HOME AFTER INJURY SCARE
JACK DRAPER revealed he overcame a fitness scare before beginning his bid to emulate his idol Andy Murray on the London grass this summer.
The British No.1 wrote “Good to be home” on the TV camera after beating American Jenson Brooksby 6-3 6-1 in the first round at Queen’s Club.
Under a scorching sun, Draper’s warm-up for Wimbledon started with a rapid win in his first grass-court match of the season against the world No. 149.
His victory was held up only when a spectator who had fainted in the heat needed treatment in the second set.
But the 6ft 4in star said he had suffered his own physical issues after a “really heavy fall” before his first home match of the year.
