Overview

  • Draper, 23, announced on social media that he will miss the remainder of 2025 after withdrawing from the US Open, where he pulled out before his scheduled second-round singles match.
  • The issue was diagnosed as bone bruising in his left humerus after his Wimbledon loss to Marin Cilic, with doctors advising complete rest rather than surgery.
  • He returned briefly in New York, defeating Federico Agustin Gomez in the first round and also reaching the mixed doubles semifinals with Jessica Pegula before stopping singles play.
  • The decision halts a breakout year that featured his first Masters 1000 title at Indian Wells, a Madrid final and a 30-9 record after rising into the world’s top five.
  • By shutting down his season, Draper ends his push for a debut at the Nitto ATP Finals, will miss late-season events including a Vienna title defense, and is expected to slide from the top 10.
