Excellent day for British tennis.

Katie Boulter sealed an outstanding 6-2 6-1 win over former US Open winner Bianca Andreescu in the Pan Pacific Open to make the last four.

Meanwhile in Vienna Jack Draper beat Tomas Machac 6-3 3-6 6-1 to reach the semi finals of the Erste Bank Open.

Unfortunately though Boulter lost her semi final to Sofia Kenin 6-4 6-4 .

Thought it would be tough that one, but another semi-final is another feather in her cap.

But Jack Draper has fared better in Vienna. He overcame Italian Lorenzo Musetti 6-2 6-4 to reach the final.

Jack Draper has today won the biggest title of his career to date with victory in the ATP 500 Erste Bank Open in Vienna.
He beat Karen Khachanov 6-4 7-5 in the final to claim glory.

A huge moment in his career.
Well done Jack .

Paris Masters 1000 event this week.
Jack Draper overcame Jiri Lehecka of Czech Republic 7-5 6-2 to progress to round two. Tough test up next though.
Taylor Fritz of USA.

A statement win for Jack Draper today in the Paris Masters.
He beat Taylor Fritz 7-6 (8-6) 4-6 6-4 in a close and compelling encounter to set up a clash with Alex de Minaur.

Katie Boulter's recent good form continues as she beat Yue Yuan to reach the Hong Kong Open final.

Unfortunately Katie Boulter got hammered in the final losing 6-1 6-2 to Diana Shnaider.

Sounds like Shnaider is one of the form players of the year, not that we hear much about it. Well done Katie, heading for the top 25 in the rankings or something.
