Close match & could have gone either way. Liam definitely playing top 100 tennis on that showing smile

Yes Liam looks like he will get there eventually, short term its very likely that Jack will pass him in the rankings, possibly after Miami depending on what results he gets in Phoenix and if Jack does anything with his Wild Card.

Brilliant!!!

To be fair Coria is a clay court grinder full stop- anything other than straight sets for Dan would have been poor. But 2 and 0 is pretty strong and a v good score line !

And Cam makes it look pretty easy too, 3 & 3

Counting qualifying and the main draw for both our men and women that's now 14 wins and 3 losses so far.

Not bad at all !!

Jan · Hall of fame

Indeed!!
Well done Cam

The fact that Cam as defending champion here, has to play on court 5 is disappointing.

I hope the organisers respect this next match more, as a repeat of last Octobers final.

There's been very mixed responses to this across the net. Most sided with the organisers. As I think, overall, I would. It's not about respect. It would be bad management to have GOAT Nadal v US boy wonder Korda, say, on a small court, where people can't get in, and have a half empty stadium for Cam v Martinez.

Naturally the next match will be given a higher profile.

With all due respect I disagree, CD. Maybe not centre court but court 5? Really. They could have surely put him higher up the order. Anyway it is what it is.
