oh well, likely for the best.
That is a shame. But he is still coming back from injury so maybe he played a bit too much this last week.
Jack has beaten Joao Fonseca 6-4 6-0 in Indian Wells. He will play Jenson Brooksby next.
it was pretty tough initially and a long game to close out the opening set, thereafter though Jack outclassed his young opponent.
Jack Draper into the last 16 after a straight sets win over Jenson Brooksby.
Jack playing Fritz tonight, level at 2 all in the Head to Head though Fritz won 2 of their 3 meetings last year. Hopefully a good performance!
Jack beat Fritz 7-5 6-4 and will face Ben Shelton in the quarters.
it was a great performance from Jack, failed to serve it out the first time at 5-2 but overall was pretty dominant once he broke through in the first. scheduled to play Shelton from around Midnight tonight.
Jack wins again, and will face Alcaraz in the semis.
Fantastic run for Jack!!!
yes Jack doing really well, another great performance-battled back from deficit early on in the 2nd. obviously Alcaraz tough but hopefully Jack gives it his all.
Jack will be playing tomorrow night. Both men's singles are after the ladies doubles match, so may not be that early.
Jack/Alcaraz are 2nd semi, first scheduled not before 8.30 PM uk time.
And there is the women's doubles final beforehand so hopefully that will be over in time.
Jack wins a topsy turvy match 6-1 0-6 6-4, and will face Holger Rune in tomorrow's final.
Final is not before 10pm GMT.
I'd heard he'd made the final, earlier. Well done to Jack.
The final is scheduled for 9 pm (not 10 pm) UK time according to the ATP site and the BNP Paribas sites (7 hour time difference). The women's singles final starts at 6 pm.
Sorry, had forgotten that the clocks have already gone forward in the US.
yes fabulous win for Jack, strange scorelines in the first two sets mind you. Still jack stepped up when it mattered though needed two chances to serve it out. Hopefully no let down v Rune.
So pleased for Jack now up to 8 in live rankings!
The Ladies finished within their allotted time so Jack v Holger should be on at 9pm per schedule.
