Draper.<\/p>\n<p>Murray worked with Draper throughout the grass court swing, although that only saw the British star play one tournament, at the Eastbourne Open.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership flourished at the South Coast tournament, as Draper reached the semi finals. Unfortunately, the star was forced out of Wimbledon a week later and many thought that would be the end for Murray and Draper\u2019s partnership.<\/p>\n<p>However, they have been spotted working together at the Washington Open, where Draper has received a much-needed wildcard for the event.<\/p>\n<h2>More Andy Murray news<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/atp-tour\/andy-murray-getting-no-1-harder-achieve-winning-grand-slam\">Andy Murray says this achievement is harder to obtain than winning a Grand Slam<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/andy-murray-makes-worrying-claim-about-british-coaching-following-criticism-at-wimbledon\">Andy Murray makes worrying claim about British coaching following criticism at Wimbledon<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/jack-draper\">Draper<\/a> is currently ranked well outside the top 100, at World No 147, and will require wildcards or qualification to play many of the events on the North American hardcourt swing.<\/p>\n<p>As for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/andy-murray\">Murray<\/a>, the Scottish legend has unfinished business at the Washington Open himself.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his glittering career, which brought him three Grand Slam titles and an Olympic Gold Medal, the star often fared poorly at the Washington event.<\/p>\n<h2>Andy Murray\u2019s record at the Washington Open<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>2006: F<\/li>\n<li>2015: 2R<\/li>\n<li>2018: QF<\/li>\n<li>2022: 1R<\/li>\n<li>2023: 3R<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The star made his debut at the tournament in 2006 and he reached the final of his maiden event. Murray beat the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/feliciano-lopez\">Feliciano Lopez<\/a>, Mardy Fish, and Dmitry Tursonov to reach the final two, but he was defeated by Arnaud Clement.<\/p>\n<p>Murray did not appear at the tournament for another nine years, but his fortunes changed once he returned in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>He was forced to exit the tournament at the quarter final stage in 2018, when he withdrew from his match against Alex de Minaur.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, the star was beaten in the first round by Mikael Ymer and a year later his final time at the tournament came to an end in the third round.<\/p>\n<p>The star defeated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/brandon-nakashima\">Brandon Nakashima<\/a>, but was then defeated in straight sets by top seed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/Taylor-Fritz\">Taylor Fritz<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Murray ended his career with an 8-5 win-loss record at the Washington Open, which is particularly poor for someone of the star\u2019s standard, particularly at an ATP 500 event.<\/p>\n<p>That equates to a 61.54% winning rate, which is poorer than his record at any of the North American hardcourt Masters event.<\/p>\n<p>Murray will be hoping for Draper to go deep into the competition to harbour those demons.<\/p>\n<p>Draper will likely need an impressive display at the Washington Open to try and convince the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/us-open\">US Open<\/a> to give him a wildcard for the Grand Slam this year.<\/p>\n<p>The British star has previously reached the semi finals of the Flushing Meadows event, but his injuries have caused a tumble down the rankings.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End --><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andy Murray\u2019s record at the Washington Open as he returns to the tournament to coach Jack Draper Liam McMillen 25 Jul 2026 8:00 PM Jack Draper and Andy Murray.
