Sofia Open 2023 results: Jack Draper into first ATP Tour final

Britain's Jack Draper reached his first ATP Tour final by beating Jan-Lennard Struff at the Sofia Open and extending his winning streak to nine matches.

Draper will face France's Adrian Mannarino or Russian Pavel Kotov in Saturday's final in Bulgaria.

He is the youngest British man to reach a tour final since Andy Murray, at the same age, in Miami 14 years ago.

Draper has been building momentum in recent weeks in what has been a promising season that has included reaching the last 16 of the US Open in September.

He had already knocked out top seed Lorenzo Musetti of Italy in the last 16 in Sofia, before another composed performance against third seed Struff to reach the final without dropping a set.
