Draper was modelling next summer’s collection for one of his sponsors last week and has been working out regularly at the National Tennis Centre in London this week.<\/p>\n
The work is primarily physical at the moment, and when pre-season training begins in earnest later this month, the initial on-court drills are likely to be low in intensity.<\/p>\n
The British number one first felt discomfort in his upper left serving arm during the clay court season in the spring, and following a scan after Wimbledon, did not hit any serves for a month.<\/p>\n
But the period of rest proved insufficient. He won his first-round match at the US Open, but withdrew before the second, and the opportunity to make his debut at the season ending ATP Finals was gone.<\/p>\n
\u201dHe’s top 10 and he played half of the year. Just to say how good he is…\u201d Mouratoglou added.<\/p>\n
“His only problem for the moment is the injuries: he has been through several injuries already in the past.<\/p>\n
“I always thought he was going to be a top player, but for every player that is supposed to become a top player, there are things to solve.<\/p>\n
“For him, it’s to find a way to be injury free as much as possible because that’s what made him lose a little bit of time otherwise he would be higher [in the rankings], I think.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
