If Challengers taught us anything, it’s that tennis is super hot. But if you thought attractive players were confined to the Big Screen, allow us to introduce you to 23-year-old tennis star, Jack Draper. Hailing from London, Draper has been making waves in the British tennis scene since he was a teenager. In fact, at only 16, he had both Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle lined up to shake his hand. Since then, he’s garnered an impressive list of wins on the ATP tour, and even some shining moments in Grand Slams.
He already made his way through the ranks at Wimbledon last year, only to make the US Open semi finals. People are already side-eyeing their friends and whispering, ‘um, who is that?!’ And they’re not only talking about his famously powerful serve. Thanks to his boyish charms, Draper’s dating life has become a topic of interest for many fans. Now, he’s in Australia for the Australian Tennis Open and we’re asking ourselves… is Jack Draper single?
Here, we delve into the romantic side of this young athlete and explore who might be the special someone in Jack Draper’s life.
Who Is Jack Draper?

If you’ve come this far, you should know he’s a British tennis player. What you may not know is that he grew around sports with a mother, Nicky Draper, who was a junior tennis champ, and father, Roger, a sports executive.
Jack has spent a lot of his life on the court, rigorously training since he was in school. It seems his career has kept him busy, because he recently told Tatler he didn’t know who Zendaya was. “I’m not that great with celebrities,” he confessed to the publication. “We were at the US Open last year and everyone was making a big fuss over this girl who walked in and I had no idea who she was. I think she was called Zendaya?”
Cutting a staggering 6’4″ figure, Draper has sponsorships with Nike and Dunlop.
For those wondering how old he is, Jack Draper was born on December 22, 2001, making him 22 – and a determined Capricorn.
Does Jack Draper Have A Girlfriend?
Given he didn’t know who Zendaya was (see the aforementioned Tatler article), it’s safe to say the guy doesn’t have a lot of free time on his hands. Or perhaps he’s just superb at keeping his private life private. During the US Open, American model and influencer KT Lordahl sparked dating rumours with the young tennis pro, with sports website The Spun reporting she posted from each of his US Open matches. Lordahl, whose real name is Katelyn, is a well-known social media personality, boasting 1.1 million Instagram followers.

Unfortunately for Lordahl and fortunately for us it looks like Draper is single. And, by the sounds of it he’s… very active of the apps. In a follow-up interview with Tatler in late November, Draper addressed dating rumours. “I like to have my fun, obviously,” he said before quickly explaining that his busy and travel-packed schedule made holding down a relationship difficult.
It sounds like our boy might be playing on and off the court; we won’t blame you if you’re downloading Raya and setting your location to Melbourne this month.
