A supreme serving performance from Draper

Jack Draper is yet to play a seed at the French Open, and he won’t have to in the last-16 either.

He will face either the maverick Alexander Bublik or the Portuguese qualifier Henrique Rocha next.

Both players pulled off big upsets from two sets down in the last round, with Bublik beating ninth seed Alex de Minaur and Rocha stunning Jakub Mensik.

Bublik won the first set 7-5 and leads 4-0 in the second.

Draper is being interviewed by Alize Cornet on Suzanne-Lenglen court.

“I knew it was going to be a really tough match. Joao has come onto the tour and caught the attention of everyone. He’s an incredible young player. Today, maybe a bit of experience. I’ve played more grand slams than him. He’s going to have an incredible future.

“The first set was key. I got on top of him. I served well, I played my forehand well. Mentally a good performance from me. Happy to be in the second week here and hopefully more to come.

“My first two rounds I played at night time. Playing Gael, I couldn’t hit it past him. It was so cold. Today the ball was getting up more and the conditions suited me better with the faster court.”

And on a hot day in Paris, what a relief for Jack Draper to get the job done in under two hours! He’s had a few epics at grand slams in the last couple of years, but he takes the direct route through this time.

Let’s hear from him now.

What a win for Jack Draper! Another big serve is middled into the net from Fonseca. That was a destruction.

He’s into the French Open last-16 for the first time!

There are some desperate cries of encouragement as Fonseca wins the first point, but Draper closes the door with two supreme serves, one out wide and one up the middle.

Draper thunders another big serve down the middle. The return from Fonseca goes long.

Could Draper get it done here? He flashes a forehand winner up the line to get to 30-30, then moves into the net and has the chance for the smash – but puts it wide!

Fonseca gets the hold as he pulls off the drop shot and beats Draper with it.

Dominant again from Draper behind serve. He’s one game away from the last-16.

He’s won over 90 per cent of points when the first serve has landed in.

Credit to Fonseca. He looked beaten when he made another error to look at two break points, but he saves them both and then holds as Draper finds the net with the drop shot.

Oh, Fonseca has called the trainer, and is receiving some treatment on his right shoulder and forearm.
