Bloody brilliant to see Billy win.

What an advertisement of hard work and dedication paying off.

I'm thinking about going if Billy is in the draw. It's only a 3 hour drive away (which I've only just realized!).

 Just around the block then wink

Those who have been on the board for a bit longer will know that for me (historically) that's almost walking distance biggrinbiggrin

Anyone know what the weather is like down on the south coast today - up North it is windy, showery and cold again today!

Billy is a set down, he leads 5-4 in the second with Purcell about to serve.  Purcell looks a much better bet, BH has had to save loads of BPs, Purcell has faced none.

So, so much against the run of play, Billy wins the 2nd set!  Game on!

An interesting stat from the commentators:  Billy has won his last 7 deciding sets.

But sadly, couldn't make it eight in a row:

SF:  (Q) Max Purcell (AUS) WR 94 defeated (WC) Billy Harris WR 139 by 6-4 4-6 6-4  cry

Billy fought the good fight.  A great, but ultimately disappointing, week for Billy.
