Former wold No 4 Jack Draper continued his promising return from injury under the guidance of British tennis great Andy Murray with a 6-1, 6-4 victory over Gabriel Diallo in the Eastbourne ATP tournament that saw him into his first semifinal since Queen's last year.

Draper will now play France's Ugo Humbert at Eastbourne after he defeated compatriot Quentin Halys 6-3, 6-4.

And Draper won't be the only British man in the semifinals at Devonshire Park after 'lucky loser' Toby Samuel enjoyed the biggest win of his professional career with a 6-3, 6-4 success against eighth seed Juan Manuel Cerundolo.
