'There's literally no break' - Jack Draper

"Since Miami I just haven't had any time. We went straight into the clay, then straight on to the grass, straight to the Olympics, straight out to Montreal, Cincinnati, training week, US Open, here, then it's Asia, then it's indoor season," sad Draper in his statement.

The star player agreed that many players have been able to adhere to the schedule in the past and even now. However, Draper felt there has been just two weeks of rest time given by ATP with Masters potentially on the cards. He felt it was mentally and physically challenging.

"I look at the sort of schedule, and I know players have done it for years, but the way the ATP have changed to two weeks with the Masters and these types of things, it's giving us no time any more. There's literally no break. It's really mentally and physically challenging," Draper added.
