Jack Draper will not play any further part in the Monte-Carlo Masters after the Brit was dumped out by Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in three sets on Thursday and his frustration was simmering early on.
Draper was broken to love as the end of the first set came about and he screamed wake up to himself. He looked off the pace and sluggish during the opening set which ADF went on to win 6-3.
"Sometimes people don't like to see the emotion. I think he [Draper] is doing it in a way that is allowing himself to stay switched on and he's just trying to get himself stuck into the match," said Sky Sports commentator Ryan Harrison during the moment.
The impromptu pep talk did very little as he lost the set and then went on to lose the match after a mini revival. He won three games in a row in the second set but was forced into a tie-break which he sealed to hand himself the impetus.
But it was very short lived as despite thrashing Marcos Giron in his opener in the Monagasque region, Davidovich Fokina reached the Quarter-Finals.
Jack Draper shouts : WAKE UP to himself as he gets broken to 0 by Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
