    Another gruelling but ultimately successful duel at the Australian Open for Brit Jack Draper


    The men's 15th seed has come from two-sets-to-one down for a third consecutive match to advance to the fourth round.

    He's been dubbed Melbourne's marathon man as a result.



    Draper will next face four time Grand Slam champion Carlos Alcaraz for a spot in the quarter finals.
