Britain's Jack Draper has produced the standout run of his career to reach the US Open semi-finals - but world number one Jannik Sinner stands in his path to Sunday's final.
Jack Draper and Jannik Sinner will play each other for only the second time when they meet in the US Open semi-finalsNow, to become only the fourth Briton to reach the men's singles final, 22-year-old Draper faces the task of beating the leading player in the men's game.
Former US Open finalist Greg Rusedski says his fellow Briton has got "a real shot" at causing a shock. Draper has won 175 of 216 of the points when he has landed his first serve, underlining the importance of this weapon."Jack has to serve exceptionally well which is what he has been doing well throughout the championships," said former world number four Rusedski.
