Bruce is making a pig's ear out of this match - he's had zillions, literally zillions, of break points (well, 'literally' he's had 20 but it seems like zillions) and only won 6.
And has now lost the TB 9-7 . ..
third set . . .

My 'pig's ear' comment obviously spurred him on to action as Bruce wins the third set 6-0 :::)))

into the main draw . . .

Ha Ha, 6 / 20 is hardly that awful a BP convertion rate. The bigger issue would seem to me to have been losing serve too frequently.

But if it spurred Bruce on, all good :)

Defeating a much higher-ranked Spaniard on clay, at that!

That's a career best ranking scalp for Bruce - his previous best was 835 (Rob Carter in Glasgow earlier this year)
