Roland Garros-2024 champion Carlos Alcaraz sensationally ended his fight at the Queen's Club Championship in London already at the stage of 1/8 finals.
The Spanish tennis player very unexpectedly lost in two sets to 22-year-old Briton Jake Draper, who is only 31st in the world ranking.
In the first set the tennis players did not make a single break and the game went to a tie-break, where Draper was stronger with the score 7:3.
The Briton dominated the second set, but at 5-2 on Alcaraz's serve he missed three match points. But in the end Draper took the set 6-3.
In the next round Draper will play against the 15th ranked American Tommy Paul.
