Japan Draper: British No 1 retires injured in Japan Open quarter-final vs Ugo Humbert | Tennis News

by

Jack Draper was forced to retire injured during Sunday’s Japan Open quarter-final against France’s Ugo Humbert.

Having lost the first set in Tokyo 7-5, British No 1 Draper received treatment for an abdominal complaint early in the second and, at 2-1 behind, could no longer continue, bringing his tournament run to an end.

Humbert will now face Tomas Machac of the Czech Republic – who Draper recently beat at the US Open – for a place in the final.
