Great win for James, and finally it looks like we have a British player who can win matches at challenger level on a clay court, which we have needed for such a long time.
This Federer was badly overranked. Never beat anyone ranked higher than him in the last few years and even had a negative head to head with a player ranked 100% lower than him.
But he pushed him pretty close! Good scheduling for Wardy here.
He has a lot of single point weeks to defend now but a much better chance of scoring more than one point in the tournaments he can now enter with his better ranking.
