Jack Draper’s Play on the accelerated screen the painful roof of the Queen’s club.
Nr. 1 British destroyed his racquet against the court’s screen-breaking his racquet Dunlop and bleeding his knee in the record during his semifinal defeat of his 6-4, 4-6, 7-5 club Be there foot tODAY
Draper Ra served to fall after 5-6 in decision makers, then released the interior of David Nalbandian, destroying his Dunlop from the advertising screen by the court.
Rampage destroyed his racuet and turned the red screen and left Draper leaning on a bloody right knee in the change. Draper, who overthrew a ball from Andy Murray Arena in anger earlier in the match, made a warning of violating the code for his Jack attack on signaling.
Draper then discovered that he was fighting with the tonsils and said his emotions explode.
“When you are not feeling well, when your energy is really low, you use everything you can to raise yourself,” Draper told Queen’s Club. “I am almost angry to get away from work. When you do this, when you give everything you have, not just in tennis, as in nothing, you are definitely a little less soft and play a little more in a buckle.
“So when you try your best and things don’t go your way, it’s easy to spill. That’s what happened there.
“As I said, I don’t want to behave like that, in all honesty, but that’s just the way I’m a competitor. Sometimes I just play with a strong bit. I don’t want to behave like that, yes.”
The Indian Wells champion said he is depleted by fighting the tonsils.
“He had developed during the week. I have tried to recover and do, but the body, when you have something like that, does not really want to play 2 hours 20 games in heat,” Draper told his illness. “You know, maybe it’s not good for you, so you won’t feel better.
“I mean, today perhaps the worst I felt. Have I thought about pulling up? No, at all. I’m in the semifinals in Queen’s. I would probably go to trial with a broken leg.
“I wouldn’t pull for anything. So I went out there, I gave everything I had, and I can be very proud of it. And too, it’s not an excuse. It’s just the way I feel, you know.
