Don't let yourselves be confused by the Challenger results page on the ATP site. It took me a short while to figure out they must be having some kind of glitch!

L32: Jesper De Jong (NED) WR 193 vs Jack Draper WR 162

Jesper is 21, Jack age 20. 

Jesper is the Netherlands' third best ranked player, and their great young hope, so to speak (got to about 35 in juniors - he lost to Aidan in the US Open, last thing I saw of him).

Jack should have too much for him, unless he's a bit plum tuckered from all his recent efforts.

Jack is a break up in the decider, he leads 3-1.  Jesper has just called for the trainer.

At 2-1 in this set, the umpire made an over rule. I'm sure it was very close, the picture quality isn't great. Whilst Jack did not agree, both he and the umpire were able to be polite.  How refreshing!

 

Jack has just broken again. 4-1.

Back to 5-5. Jack with plenty of racket throwing now. Think he just got a warning.

Now 5-5.  Jack served for it and played a couple of horror show shots. Chucked his racket both times, and got a code violation. He can still win this if he keeps his krappe together.

Come back from 4-1 down in the tiebreak to take it in 3.

I know he made a mess of that but I enjoyed watching it quite a lot

Wow, what a seesaw contest. Jack reels off the last 6 points of the breaker to win it 7-4 and the match too.

Big smiles

Funny, even at 1-4 down in the tie-break, you still thought Jack would do it.

It was a good set of tennis - enjoyed watching de Jong.

But Jack's the man.

Rattled off those last 6 points and gets the win
