Ryan Harrison!!


Becomes only the tenth 15 year old to win a Tour main draw match in the history of tennis. jawdrop.gif

The last person to do this was Nadal when he beat Ramon Delgado in Mallorca in 2002.


And a hell of a win this is, too. He has beaten Pablo Cuevas in straight sets, who's a fine player on slow surfaces.




He happens to have a younger brother, Christian, who I think is a bigger prodigy than he is.

A thought for the future - maybe an American who will be good on clay!

No, Tomic is about 5 months younger than Harrison.

A fantastic achievment to win an ATP match at only 15, however i dont think he could of asked for an easier route to the main draw, qualifying by beating players ranked 348 and 1009, Still nontheless great wins for a boy of 15.


Even better for Harrison, he is more than likely to play James Blake in round 2 which will be a very good experience for him.


If only James Ward played here instead of choosing the futures event he would have been seeded and probly never get a better chance to qualify for an ATP event!

He took five games off Blake, which is extremely impressive.
