Australian Open: Jack Draper to miss United Cup due to hip injury

New Delhi: Britain's No. 1 male tennis player Jack Draper said that he will miss the United Cup, the 2025 ATP season-opener, due to a hip injury but remains 'positive' to play the Australian Open in Melbourne, starting on January 12. Draper was expected to play for Great Britain in the United Cup which starts on December 27. With a hip injury ruling him out of the competition, he will now have less than a month to prepare himself for the first Grand Slam of the year. The 22-year-old recently cancelled a training camp with four-time major champion Carlos Alcaraz in Spain this week because of a "little bit of a niggle". IANS
