Jack Draper battled a raucous home crowd to beat Thanasi Kokkinakis and reach the Australian Open third round. It was another gruelling contest long into the Melbourne night as Draper won 6-7 (3-7) 6-3 3-6 7-5 6-3 after four hours and 35 minutes on court as tempers frayed, evoking Andy Murray’s marathon win over the same opponent two years ago.

Former junior rivals Jack Draper and Jacob Fearnley fought their way into the third round of the Australian Open despite being on the wrong end of two of the rowdiest crowds you will find on the professional tour.
