Jack Draper on song as Joao Fonseca goes wrong

Paris, May 31 (UNI) Britain's Jack Draper produced a dominant display to outclass Brazilian teenager Joao Fonseca 6-2, 6-4, 6-2 and enter the fourth round of the French Open for the first time in his career, here on Saturday.
Draper, seeded fifth, needed just under two hours on Court Suzanne Lenglen to dismantle the challenge of the 18-year-old Fonseca, who had caught the public's imagination with his fearless run in Paris.
The 23-year-old Briton won an impressive 93 per cent of points on his first serve and saved both break points he faced, while converting five of the 11 break points he earned on the Fonseca serve. The Brazilian, despite flashes of brilliance, struggled with consistency and finished with 38 unforced errors.
