Jack Draper said he is “incredibly proud” of reaching his first career grand slam quarter-final at the US Open.
The 22-year-old destroyed Czech Tomas Machac in the fourth round to become the first British male quarter-finalist in New York since Andy Murray in 2016.
“I’m incredibly proud of that achievement,” he said after a 6-3 6-1 6-2 win,” he said.
“Obviously, it’s one of the biggest tournaments in the world.”

Fire alarm stops play
All matches at the US Open have been currently suspended due to a fire alarm in the same building where the hawk eye operates in.

There was a short 10-minute suspension to play on all courts midway through the afternoon when Hawkeye, the tournament’s electronic line-calling system, went down after its operational staff were evacuated from a nearby building due to a fire alarm.
Thankfully, it was a false alarm, though and play soon resumed.

Joe Salisbury’s US Open invincibility is now over after he lost in the men’s doubles.
Salisbury and American partner Rajeev Ram were on a 20-match winning streak that had seen them claim the 2021, 2022 and 2023 titles in New York.
Seeded third, they would have been hopeful of extending their run against American pair Nathaniel Lammons and Jackson Withrow on Grandstand but slipped to a surprise loss.
