Draper could go top of world rankings - Murray
Written by I Dig SportsAndy Murray believes new British number one Jack Draper can go to the "top of the world rankings".
Draper, 22, won his first ATP title at the Stuttgart Open on Sunday, beating Italys Matteo Berrettini 3-6 7-6 (7-5) 6-4.
The success helped him move above compatriot Cameron Norrie, 28, in the world rankings.
Draper is now world number 31 - eight places above Norrie, who had a poor clay-court campaign and suffered an early exit at Nottingham last week - and is in a strong position to be seeded at Wimbledon.
"Jack, I think, has bigger goals to aspire to than being British number one," said Murray.
"In my opinion, he can get right up to the top of the game, right to the top of the world rankings."
