Jack Draper enters the Wimbledon meat grinder as Britain's Big Thing
As Jack Draper arched his back to serve, a set and a break up on Court No 1, a well-groomed man in thick silver sunglasses stood up in his seat and posed for a photo in front of the action, chewing theatrically on the handle of his lustrously finished handbag, thereby conveying to his social media feed that he was (a) present, vital, right here in the moment; and (b) not very interested in tennis. Nobody seemed to mind. In fairness Wimbledon's big Tuesday best-of-British event did feel a bit like this. Less an act of white-hot sporting drama, more just, like, a really cool thing happening. An hour and 13 minutes into this first-round match Sebastián Báez would retire with a knee injury at 6-2, 6-2, 2-1 down. There will be far tougher opponents than the world No 38 who barely left an imprint on the Wimbledon turf, and whose only obvious victory plan was to keep bunting the ball back until one of you dies of heat exhaustion. There was no chance of that on the Wimbledon grass. Instead this was the tennis equivalent of watching a man being run over by a truck, albeit a very elegant, high-end, luxury-spec truck. And so Draper has now progressed to the second round, and also taken a step along another significant pathway. For Draper this Wimbledon is a kind of coming out event, a society debut. Not in any sport-related sense. He's No 4 in the world. He has already vaulted through every level placed in front of him, from the nepo-baby jibes of the junior tennis circuit, a place that makes even the drowned world of kids cricket seem insufficiently neurotic, to proving himself as a genuine elite presence on tour. But this is also Draper's first post-Murray summer, his first as the Big Thing, the key domestic TV event at this arena of swoons, flushes and also hunger. It would emerge later that the handbag-biting man was in fact part of a team of influencers sent by Draper's fashion sponsor to create their own sub-spectacle, amplify the brand, influence. The All England Club can hardly complain. Wimbledon and Draper is also essentially a brand partnership. British star power has been vital to this place's transformation into a hugely potent financial engine, spawned out of the appearance of sporting mania as a feature in public life in the mid-90s. Wimbledon entwined itself around this, the corporate hospitality dollar, the pink trouser pound. The industry is real. It needs meat. So Draper must head into the grinder, a deeply mannered kind of grinder, but a grinder nonetheless. Court No 1 was viciously hot and humid in late afternoon, the kind of heat that sits on every surface like heavy gravity. There was a slow wave of whoops and whistles as the players walked out, Draper picturesquely vast next to Báez. There are still questions to be answered here. What are the shapes, the sounds, the iconography of the Draper fandom? Henman Energy was fevered and oddly sexless, with a vague sense of cheering for a minor royal cousin. The Murray years were more nuanced, a deeper bond, a higher ceiling, a sense of greatness to be touched. Draper is something else, a product off the high-end factory line, a machine made to hit and stretch and win. You can see why elite players consider him elite. There are no weaknesses in his physical toolbox. Tall but good feet. Power but still whippy and light in his shoulders. And yes we will objectify him, because this is tennis, a relentless elite sport, but also basically a country-house flirtation that got out of hand. The jaw, the shoulders, the sculpted lines. This thing is rangy, classical, elite-athlete handsome. We have one of these now. How is it going to feel? 'Come on Drapes' lone voices shouted in the crowd, trying it out, as he hit long in the opening game, searching for timing in that full-rotation forehand. But with 20 minutes gone it was already 5-1. The second set was if anything even easier. And outside on the big-screen slope beyond Court No 1 the vibe was equally comfortable. There are issues to be settled here. What will we call this space now, given it seems to need to be called something? Henman Hill always sounded like a bottle of bad English wine. Does it have to be a hill? Jackatoa? The Jackerhorn? Jackstock? Is there a Jackstonbury angle? All of this fluff has a hard commercial edge. Sport must be sold to people who don't like sport. Eyeballs must be harvested. But it is a shame, because Draper is interesting in his own right. He has taken time to find his best self, struggled with nerves, and spoken recently about the influence of his breathing coach, which is very Big Sport kind of thing, a place where often the real interest is the challenge of simply surviving in this world, existing on that lighted stage. Draper has spent a lot of time working out how to be alone, waiting better, being in hotels better, remembering to breathe, learning to win, as here, without taking a bite out of himself. On this evidence it might just be an unusually comfortable reboot.

Phoebe Tomlinson, 21, poses in a skimpy bikini as she marks one year since having her boob job and reveals she feels 'so confident' since surgery
Phoebe Tomlinson posed in a skimpy bikini as she marked one year since having her boob job on Tuesday. The model and influencer, 21, who is the younger sister of One Direction 's Louis, took to her Instagram Story to reflect on how she feels 12 months on from her surgery. The mother-of-one revealed she now feels 'so confident' and even tagged where she had her procedure. She penned in the caption: 'side note!!! My boobs are a year old today - thank you @nassabplasticsurgery for making me feel so confident!!! TIME FLIES!!!' Phoebe looked stunning in a grey and blue patterned bikini in the snap as she showed off her impressive holiday tan. Her post comes after she opened up about how being a teenager mother was the 'best thing in the world'. The beauty welcomed a baby girl called Olive Johannah Varley with her footballer boyfriend Jack Varley, 26, on January 3 last year. And soon after Phoebe took to Instagram to answer questions from her 1.1million followers about becoming a mother. While she said being a mum is the 'best thing in the world', Phoebe admitted at the time that she was finding breastfeeding challenging. 'The demand it's had on my body and my mental health has really affected me,' she said, adding that she feels too 'guilty' to switch to combination feeding. Olive's middle name, Johannah, is a poignant tribute to Phoebe's late mother Johannah Deakin. The Tomlinson family tragically lost their mother Johannah in December 2016 aged 43, following a battle with leukaemia. During her Q&A, one of Phoebe's followers asked her if it was difficult becoming a mother while still a teenager, to which she replied: 'To me, I'm just a mum. 'Being a mum at any age has its challenges I think. But it's the best thing in the world.' Phoebe was then asked how she has found breastfeeding her daughter Olive, which she admitted she had been hesitant to answer. 'I'm going to speak on this in the hopes that some mums on here can relate,' she began. 'I'm not ashamed to say I've not enjoyed breastfeeding at all really,' she said. 'I've found the pressure a lot. 'There are positives, as in the bond and the convenience of just putting her on the boob as soon as she needs however, the demand it's had on my body and my mental health has really affected me.' Phoebe continued: 'I'm still exclusively breastfeeding Oliver, which I can't quite believe. I nearly quit at 2 weeks if I'm honest. I've been considering combination feeding purely for the convenience and to give my body that little break when she can have a bottle. 'It's just one of those things I feel like I'll never actually do because I almost feel guilty, like I'm depriving my baby. I shouldn't think like that but naturally you do as a mum. Can anyone talk to me about combination feeding? I don't know too much about it.' Speaking to other mother's struggling with the realities of breastfeeding, Phoebe urged them to remember they are not alone. She said she found it 'so much harder' than she had anticipated. 'The fact that you're the only one that can console your baby when they're hungry is such a lot of pressure and it's normal to not cope,' Phoebe added. Announcing the arrival of Olive, Phoebe shared a black-and-white video documenting the birth, featuring emotional moments of the new mother crying as she cradled her newborn baby. In an accompanying caption, she said: 'Olive Johannah Varley 04.01.24 - weighing 7lb7oz - the best day of our lives.' In the video, Phoebe was seen breaking down in tears as she became overcome with emotion while hugging and kissing her newborn daughter. Jack was also seen sweetly cradling baby Olive, who was wrapped in a blanket and hat, as he gazed lovingly at her. Phoebe also gave an insight into the water birth as she shared videos of herself cradling her bump and holding hands with her boyfriend Jack as she sat in the tub. Her family, including her father Mark and sister Lottie, were quick to share their congratulations with the new parents. Taking to the comments section, her father Mark gushed: 'Way way beyond proud so begins the best journey in life ever.' While Lottie, 26, took to her Instagram Stories to re-share Phoebe's video as well as a snap of herself cradling her niece. Alongside the video, Lottie said: 'So beyond proud of you. Olive, auntie will love you forever.'
