Britain’s Liam Broady stuns fourth seed Casper Ruud in five sets at Wimbledon

PA Wire

Liam Broady outlasted world No 4 Casper Ruud in five sets for a career-best win at Wimbledon, making him the first British male to reach the third round this year.

In trademark gutsy fashion, the 29-year-old had to dig deep to fight back from two sets to one down, but – carried by a buoyant Centre Court crowd – he clinched an excellent 6-4, 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-0 victory in three hours and 27 minutes.
