Second seed Jack Draper is back in action at Queen’s today following an assured first-round win on Tuesday.
The British No 1 dispatched Jenson Brooksby 6-3, 6-1 in front of a rapt crowd on the Andy Murray Arena, kicking off his grass-court season with a confident display.
His opponent today is a tougher customer, however: world No 21 Alexei Popyrin, who beat compatriot Aleksandar Vukic in the first round, and who memorably dispatched Novak Djokovic at the US Open last year.
Fourth seed Holger Rune and eight seed Jakub Mensik, who beat British No 2 Cameron Norrie on Monday, are also back in action on another busy day at Queen’s.
