Former World No. 3 Dominic Thiem stumbled into the third round after his Round of 32 opponent Grigor Dimitrov retired from the competition a day after saving two match points to avoid early elimination. It was not how Thiem would have preferred the match to end, but the World No. 231 has advanced to the third round for the first time since winning the US Open in 2020. On Monday, the 17-time tour-level champion defeated fellow wild card J.J. Wolf 6-7 (5-7), 7-5, 7-6 (8-6) in the opening round. Thiem is now 9-9 in 2022 and will attempt to reach a fourth consecutive quarter final on Thursday.

Jack Draper, a quarterfinalist at the Canadian Open, made a strong start at the Winston-Salem Open, holding off Fabio Fognini’s comeback and advancing to the third round. The 20-year-old British player, who had a first-round bye, dropped serve in the first game, but broke the Italian three times to take the first set. Fognini fought back in the second set to tie the match, but Draper took command of the final set and defeated the veteran Italian 6-2, 4-6, 6-1. Draper converted six of ten break points and saved ten of thirteen. The victory improves the British lefty’s season record to 12-7. He’s been in great form this year.
