WELL DONE LIAM.
Grindin' out some wins on the spanish clay courts. That's what I like to see from youngsters.

Another winnable Main draw match on paper at least.
(But soon we'll find out his opponent is a 6 year old wunderkid who beat Sampras, Nastase and Henman one handed and blindfolded in a game of 3 on 1 last week.)

Come, come, surely not, this is a Broady we're talking about wink

Great to see the good results that Liam continues to get and a very good chance indeed of adding to his ranking points tally.

Know what you mean. Couple of matches were amusing, mind you, most of the bad language came from me watching!!!

Liam comes across as being very mature for his age, more so than maybe some of his contempories.

I'd actually just seen that earlier and tweeted to him to look on it as a challenge and aim to show folk that it is a challenge that he is up to.
