Jack Draper plays a forehand on his way to victory over Francisco Cerundolo in their third round match of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells Tennis Garden, California
The 24-year-old is playing just his second ATP Tour event since last summer following nearly eight months out with an arm injury and battled to a 6-1 7-5 win over Argentinian Francisco Cerundolo.
Draper will now take on 24-time grand slam champion Djokovic for just the second time, five years after he lost in four sets on his Wimbledon debut.
