Since withdrawing from the past US Open before facing his second-round match, Jack Draper has not played a professional match again. He will do so this weekend in the Davis Cup, putting behind five months of long waiting. Will we see the best version of the Brit in 2026? That's what his colleagues from Sky Sports asked him.

"Who knows, for me it is possible to happen. I have been working hard, training well, I believe I am a better player than I was six months ago. Now what I need is to play matches, tennis is a sport of confidence, a sport where you improve your game in relation to what you compete. I took some time off to come back, so I hope to return stronger," evaluated the 24-year-old.
