A Liverpool supporting tennis player has described the “mind-boggling” few weeks he faced off against Roger Federer at Wimbledon.
Marcus Willis, from Warwickshire, began playing tennis when he was nine years old. Now 32, he is still going, and is competing at The Qube Liverpool International Tennis Tournament at Liverpool Cricket Club this week.
Speaking to the ECHO ahead of the tournament, Marcus said he was proud of certain parts of a career which has been far from straightforward. He said: “I've been very fortunate to have people to support and back me because without that you can’t do it. It’s a career of highs and lows.”
