Jack Draper is the leading hope of British men’s tennis and one of the most dangerous left-handers in the world game. The Sutton-born southpaw reached a career-high ranking of world No. 4 in 2025 and has won three ATP Tour titles, including the Indian Wells Masters 1000 — the most prestigious hard-court title claimed by a British man since Andy Murray’s peak. A US Open semi-finalist in 2024, the first Briton to reach that stage since Murray in 2012, Draper combines explosive left-handed serve angles, heavy topspin and two-handed backhand power into a high-octane game built to trouble the very best.

Playing Style & Strengths

Draper’s game is built around a high-quality left-handed serve that opens up the court with angles few opponents are accustomed to facing, and a heavy forehand struck with significant topspin and racket-head speed. The combination allows him to take control of rallies early and finish points from the front of the court.

His two-handed backhand is a reliable, powerful shot capable of redirecting pace down the line, and at 6ft 4in he generates considerable force while moving better than many players of his height. The physical demands of his explosive style have at times left him vulnerable to injury, and managing his body has been central to converting his evident ceiling into consistent results at the top of the game.
