Carlos Alcaraz, the reigning Wimbledon champion, saw his buildup to this year's tournament take a knock after a second-round loss at Queen's Club.

Alcaraz, who was the top seed and last year's Queen's Club champion, was surprisingly defeated by British No. 1 Jack Draper, who won 7-6 (3), 6-3 in front of a home crowd.

The setback leaves Alcaraz with just two grass-court matches under his belt as he prepares for Wimbledon, commencing in 11 days, while Draper celebrated his biggest career victory by extending his own winning streak to seven matches.
