Fourth seed Tim Henman overcame a wretched start to oust Australian Scott Draper 3-6 6-3 6-4 6-3 in the second round at Wimbledon today.

Henman made bad mistakes with a number of simple forehand volleys and gifted the 230th-ranked Draper the opening set.

But two delightful lobs in as many points helped Henman break for a 2-0 lead at the start of the second set

Henman broke early in the third and fourth sets to steer a relatively assured path to a third round meeting with South African Wayne Ferreira.
