Draper suffers Italian Open quarter-final defeat to Alcaraz on Sky Sports
Draper suffered a straight-sets 6-4 6-4 defeat to Carlos Alcaraz as his run at the Italian Open ended at the quarter-final stage.
The British No 1 was ultimately undone in straight sets as Alcaraz saved six of the eight break points he faced to advance to the last four in Rome.
Draper was victorious the last time these two met, in the semi-finals at Indian Wells in March en route to the Englishman claiming his first Masters 1000 title, and he made a strong start this time, breaking serve to lead 4-2 in the first set thanks to an Alcaraz double fault.
After falling 5-4 behind following a poor game, he relinquished two opportunities to break back and save the set.
He initially looked to have recovered in the second and put pressure on Alcaraz's serve, but he failed again to convert two break points in the penultimate game, handing his opponent the momentum.
Draper, who was in search of a maiden clay title on the ATP tour, has looked tired in Rome, mentally as much as physically, with the defeat coming as a disappointment following last week's run to the Madrid Open final.
What else is on Draper's schedule?
Now that he has exited Rome, the Brit will focus on the French Open from May 25-June 8, while he will also compete at Queen's in June before Wimbledon runs from June 30-July 15.
He will then return to Flushing Meadows, live on Sky Sports, for the US Open from August 24-September 7.
Draper reached the semi-finals in New York in 2024 before losing to eventual champion Jannik Sinner.
How has he done in 2025 so far?
Draper's breakthrough victory at Indian Wells included a win over Carlos Alcaraz but he was unable to complete the Sunshine Double after defeat in his opening match in Miami to Jakub Mensik.
A three-set loss to Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina ended Draper's first tournament of the clay-court season - the Monte-Carlo Masters - at the last-16 stage.
He bounced back in style in Madrid as he became only the second Brit, after Andy Murray, to make the final of that tournament and showed that he is now a threat on all surfaces.
The 23-year-old missed out on a second Masters 1000 title as he lost to Casper Ruud after three gruelling sets.
However, it was a highly impressive tournament for him as he usurped Novak Djokovic in the world rankings and hit the top five for the first time.
Earlier in the year, Draper lost to Andrey Rublev in the Qatar Open final, after retiring against Alcaraz in the last 16 at the Australian Open, having seen his start to the season delayed by a hip issue.
In 2024, he claimed his first two ATP titles, on the grass in Stuttgart and then on a hard court in Vienna, while he reached a final in Adelaide at the start of the year.
