Britain’s Jack Draper is suffering from an injury to his left forehand arm.
World number ten Jack Draper will miss the Australian Open in Melbourne in January. The Brit continues to suffer from a persistent injury to his left hitting arm, which makes it impossible for him to participate in the first highlight of the new tennis season. The 24-year-old announced this on social media. “It’s a really, really difficult decision,” said Draper, who has not played a match since the US Open in August. He said he was “at the absolute end of the healing process, but going straight back into a best-of-five match doesn’t seem like a wise decision for me and my tennis at the moment.” Draper won his first Masters title in Indian Wells in March and had since risen to fourth in the world rankings.
