Draper reached fourth round for the first time as Cameron Norrie, Dan Evans and Katie Boulter’s runs were ended.
It was the same court upon which, a year earlier, Draper suffered a hamstring injury which forced him to retire from his match with Karen Khachanov.
He said: “I was thinking that on the court today it’s like Groundhog Day out there. I think it was exactly one year on. “To come here a year on, despite maybe my ranking having dropped a fair bit because of the injuries and not being able to be on the same confidence level that I was last year, you know, I’m incredibly proud of that and hopefully I can keep going this week.”
Boulter was beaten 6-4 6-3 by 21-year-old American Peyton Stearns and Norrie lost a disappointing match in three sets to Italian Matteo Arnaldi.
