Jack Draper advanced to the quarter-finals of the US Open as he dominated Tomas Machac in a straight sets victory.
Britain's Draper, 22, sealed a 6-3 6-1 6-2 win in imperious fashion. Astonishingly so far in the US Open, the British No 1 is yet to drop a set. He had lost his three previous encounters with Machac and yet recorded this crucial victory at the most opportune time at Flushing Meadows.
He banged down a serve to reach match point and bossed the final rally to take the match in style. 'I just need to keep going''The last few times we played it was a battle. Today, I played at a decent level and he was maybe a little bit off his best,' Draper said afterwards. 'I had to stay strong in the point, and it's just amazing to play out here. I lost last year here in the same round, so it's nice to come back and do better. 'I just need to keep going now.
