Draper beats Khachanov to claim second ATP title in Vienna

BRITISH number one Jack Draper celebrated his second ATP title following a tense straight-sets victory over Karen Khachanov in the final of The Vienna Open.

The 22-year-old, playing in his second competition since reaching the US Open semi-finals, won 6-4 7-5 against the Russian world number 24 in Vienna.

Draper looked set to breeze to victory after going 4-0 up in the second set but was then forced to dig in when Khachanov threatened a comeback by winning the next five games in a row.
