Jack Draper

• Age: 21
• Ranking: 123
• Davis Cup ties played: 0
• Davis Cup record: N/A

After having to sit out on the grass court swing due to a shoulder injury, Draper has made a strong statement on his return to the tour. Playing in only his third tournament back at the US Open, Draper eased past Radu Albot, Hubert Hurkacz and Michael Mmoh to reach the fourth round of a Grand Slam for the first time in his career.

The 21-year-old was selected to represent Great Britain at their qualifying tie in Colombia back in February but is yet to make his debut for his country. With the ability to compete against the world's best players, Draper will certainly be a key asset in the squad and enters the Group Stages in fiery form.
