Liam Broady

After providing one of the biggest upsets so far in the second round, Broady comes up against Alex de Minaur.

“He’s very good on the grass, won one or two of the grass court challengers before. He said: “I actually played Demon in Eastbourne last year. I’d play Wimbledon for no points and no prize money. He added: “I’m just grateful to have made the third round of Wimbledon, to be honest. I’d hope not (laughter). I won’t judge her if she sits in Demon’s (De Minaur) box. By Paul Eddison at Wimbledon

Question: Are you here for the experience or are you going to go all the way? Jamie Murray: We are better than them, aren't we? Boulter looked all at sea in the first two games of the second set as dreams of a first run to the second week of a Grand Slam began to rapidly fade.

Alex De Minaur added a second Brit to his list of scalps as he defeated Liam Broady in straight sets. But was unable to hold and his opponent saw out the victory on the fourth matchpoint "I appreciate all the support.

De Minaur had to save a first break point before eventually holding, as a Broady lob landed just beyond the baseline, before another chance came and went in the Australian’s next service game. What followed was a breathless game, taking almost 15 minutes, as Broady had four chances to take it to a tie-break. His forehand became wild and the Court 1 roar would have been heard all around SW19 as Broady got it back on serve. Broady had to grind out a battling hold early in the second set, seeing off three break points before a timely ace moved him 2-1 up and kept it on serve. By now comfortable holds were a thing of the past for Broady and he found himself having to fend off three break points once more. The 28-year-old briefly threatened to play his way back into it, inspired by a late racquet change.

Naomi, who is also an umpire and tennis champ, spoke to BBC Breakfast sports correspondent Mike Bushell about her brother and how he was preparing for his upcoming game. His sister and fellow tennis player Naomi spoke to BBC Breakfast about how her sibling winds down after a day's play by watching the ITV2 reality series Love Island. She revealed Liam had an unusual method of de-stressing from tennis. Bushell asked if Liam’s nerves had “kicked in” and if he was “pacing around the house” in anticipation before the game. Reflecting on Liam playing at Wimbledon, Naomi said: “To have these moments, to have these tens of thousands of people screaming and cheering for you.

British hopes are still alive in the prestigious tournament, with Heather Watson and Cameron Norrie both through to the quarter-finals.

The disappointment for British tennis came a day after Heather Watson and Cameron Norrie both reached the quarter-final of a Grand Slam for the first time. The 115th-ranked Frenchwoman - who knocked out seven-times Wimbledon champion Serena Williams in the opening round - secured three breaks in the second set in a swift and dominant performance. British hopes are still alive in the prestigious tournament, with Heather Watson and Cameron Norrie both through to the quarter-finals.

'I'm not sure if it was the right solution in the end,' he said. 'It felt like the classic Jimmy Connors type of thing: 'I didn't lose the match; I ran out of time' he said. But he decided to make tennis 100 per cent.' Broady had dropped to 331 in the world shortly before making that change, in 2019. He said after drawing Andy Murray here, a few years back, that winning would be comparable to 'Stockport County winning the Premier League in one season from the Vanarama North.' I felt like the ball was doing what I was trying to tell it to do. But Broady's search for a different tension – something Jimmy Connors frequently tried mid-game - reflected a refusal to yield which has characterised his Wimbledon and had Number One court rising to applaud him by the end.
