Jack Draper dominates Holger Rune in Indian Wells final to clinch first ATP 1000 Masters title

Jack Draper stormed to an emphatic victory over Holger Rune in the BNP Paribas Open final at Indian Wells to claim his first ATP 1000 Masters title.

The British No 1 delivered a ruthless display of on-court power and aggression and an overwhelmed Rune could find no answer, succumbing to a 6-2 6-2 straight-sets defeat.

Draper will climb to a career-high of seventh in the world rankings after the greatest victory of his burgeoning career.

The 23-year-old famously reached a first Grand Slam semi-final at the 2024 US Open and this watershed win at Indian Wells will only fuel hopes of even more success.
