JACK Draper believes he has plenty of room for improve- ment in pursuit of his “huge goal” of winning a Grand Slam title.

Draper dreams of Grand Slam glory

The British number one secured the biggest win of his career to date in Indian Wells, thrashing Holger Rune 6-2 6-2 in the final of the BNP Paribas Open to win his first ATP Masters 1000 title.

The victory has lifted Draper, who beat Carlos Alcaraz in the last four, to a career-high seventh in the world rankings and raised expectations that the 23-year-old can challenge for the game's biggest titles.

"That's still obviously something I'm working towards," said Draper, who reached the semi-finals of the US Open last year, losing to world number one Jannik Sinner after being sick on court in New York.
