NEW YORK (Reuters) -Fifth seed Jack Draper of Britain pulled out of the U.S. Open before his second round meeting with Zizou Bergs due to an arm injury that has hampered him for several weeks, organisers of the year's final Grand Slam said on Wednesday.

Draper reached the second round after overcoming Argentine qualifier Federico Agustin Gomez on Monday while dealing with a left-arm issue that had kept him out of action since he lost in the Wimbledon second round last month.
