Britain's Jack Draper made an impressive comeback against Germany's Rudolf Molleker to book a spot in the quarter-finals of the Bavarian International in Munich. Draper lost the opening set but came back from a rain delay renewed with energy and aggression as he won 4-6 6-1 6-1. The 22-year-old, who is hoping to reach his first clay-court final at an ATP event, will face Taylor Fritz or Alejandro Moro Canas in the last eight on Friday, live on Sky Sports Tennis.

' How Draper beat MollekerWild card Molleker started the better player as he won the longer baseline rallies and capitalised on the only break point chances of the first set to go 3-2 up and went on to hold his serve. Rain made the ball heavy and seemingly played into the German's hands in the set but play was stopped for 45 minutes ahead of the second set due to the wet weather.
