Brit Liam Broady bows out of Wimbledon after four-set defeat to Denis Shapovalov in second round
Liam Broady’s impressive Wimbledon run is over after he was beaten in the third round by Denis Shapovalov.
The British number five enjoyed a dream Centre Court victory over fourth seed Casper Ruud on Thursday but was unable to produce another shock, going down 4-6 6-2 7-5 7-5 on Court Two.
The defeat ended British interest in the men’s singles as Broady followed Andy Murray and Cameron Norrie out on a chastening afternoon for the male home players.
He will perhaps have some regrets as he served to go two sets to one up against Shapovalov, but will leave the tournament feeling proud of his efforts as the British man who got the furthest.
