Whoa - come on Jack; he has been two sets to one down in all his matches so far and won the 4th, real fight - not sure he is at his best this event, but certainly fighting and certainly showing fitness.

Come on Jack!!

Go Jack, 7-6(5)

Feared when Vukic put away that running backwards overhead to save giving up a mini break / SP at 5-4* but Jack then did get one and served it out

Some brave advances to the net by Jack, not always coming off and sometimes debatable, but not lacking positivity.

Great match.

In his past two matches, he has stretched away in the fifth - I see he has a break here as well. If he does that again, it really bodes well for where he is at that he can do that in the fifth set, not once but three times, potentially

Looking promising in the final set with Jack up an early break... Has Vukic shot his bolt?

Neil Gee · Club Coach

Jack pleased according to the media that hes proved his stamina this week. Th

Has he finally broken Vukic resistance ?

Either that, or bodes ill in that he's bound to have pulled/strained/injured something, even just a bit, you can't keep doing five set matches, and he'll then be out for three months
