Jack Draper vs Alexander Bublik start time: When is French Open match?

Everything you need to know with the British No 1 back in action

Jack Draper and Gael Monfils embrace after French Open battle

Jack Draper will look to book his spot in the quarter-finals of the French Open as he takes on Alexander Bublik at Roland Garros.

The British No 1 was in outstanding form as he swept aside talented teenager Joao Fonseca in a potentially problematic third-round encounter, with Draper really finding his feet on the surface during this clay-court swing.

He will be fully aware of the threat that Bublik might pose, though, with the Kazakh already having dumped out ninth seed Alex de Minaur since arriving in Paris.

Draper has won the pair’s two previous tour meetings but is yet to take on the former top-20 player on clay, and the unpredictable big server could yet spring a shock in a match that promises plenty.

Here’s everything you need to know:
