Jack Draper and Emma Raducanu open up about relationships and the personal cost of life on tour

Jack Draper has advanced to the third round of the French Open, a milestone that reflects both his talent and the personal sacrifices he’s made. The 23-year-old acknowledged the emotional toll of constant travel and the difficulty of sustaining relationships.

His reflections echo those of fellow Brit Emma Raducanu, who also highlighted the isolation of life on the professional tennis circuit. While Draper continues in Paris after defeating Gael Monfils, Raducanu bowed out to Iga Swiatek in the second round.

Both athletes, currently single, have spoken candidly about the solitude that often accompanies their careers. Draper prioritizes his development over dating, while Raducanu finds comfort in reading during her downtime on tour.
