Overview

• As Britain’s top seed and only player ranked in the world’s top five, Draper carries the hopes of a first men’s home champion since Andy Murray’s 2016 victory.
• He clinched his maiden ATP Masters 1000 title at Indian Wells and followed it with deep clay-court runs and a Queen’s Club semifinal.
• Mats Wilander warns that intense media scrutiny and social media hype could undermine Draper’s focus if he does not temper his on-court emotions.
• Draper opens his campaign against Argentina’s Sebastian Baez, holding a 2-0 head-to-head lead but untested on grass.
• He could face top stars Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner or defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in later rounds.
