L32: Jack Draper WR 27 defeated (9) Stefanos Tsitsipas (GRE) WR 11 by 3-6 6-4 7-5
Came back from a break down in that final set. I sincerely hope that there was no racket-smashing in the course of the encounter. Ruud (7) or FAA in the last 16.
I think Jack is getting frustrated it isnt as easy as he hoped/ expected right now. Might be wrong. And yes, fair comment. Needs to get his head into a place to beat these types of players more easily, Munar is solid and not easy but on an American hard court, Jack should have him.
Jack , IMO, should beat Tsitsipas as well.
Great to see that result for Jack, feels like he just needs to get some form, the game has always been there
I noticed Jack was wearing a 'sleeve' on his left arm (he is a lefty). That may indicate he has some problem there? I have seen other players wear such things (Raonic eg). Does anyone know the function of them?

My son wore one when recovering from an injury - a compression sleeve is supposed to promote healing through increased blood flow, provided support and warmth. No idea if it actually works..
